Reluctantly.

"You can't be a professor," Andrew said. "You're way too young!"

"You'd be amazed how much you rely on body language and social cues to determine someone's age," Erica told him. "Take another look at that video and tell me how old I seem in it."

"Video?" Ross asked. Andrew sighed and took out his phone.

"Apparently Madison gave me a bunch of scripts based on porn characters," he grumbled. "I bound the coed script to her and she started acting like a horny bimbo."

He slid his phone across the table and Ross and Madison watched. Ross was stunned, but Madison just giggled at Erica's behavior. When it had finished, Ross looked up at Erica.

"Wow," he said.

"I think Ross is asking to borrow that script," Madison giggled. She put her hand on his chest and spoke in a cartoonishly sexy voice. "Oh, Ross, baby, I want you so bad. I'm a naughty little coed and I need somebody to punish me..."

Andrew cleared his throat. "Ok, but what about when we swapped your scripts before? Won't she remember that?"

Madison shrugged. "Remember what? Hanging out for a few minutes and messing around with a golem? Shouldn't be a problem."

"And my script is designed to populate based on my calendar, email, and blackboard information," Erica added. "As soon as the script's in her she'll start going over that stuff. If the tech asks her about classes or students she'll have answers ready."

"I don't know," Ross said doubtfully. "I wish we could test it or something, but then she'd remember our testing."

"Not necessarily..." Erica said. "You can put features in scripts to throw off the memory storage. Stuff that would never really affect our behavior but would constitute a major difference. For example, if I'm ever on a space station, I should assume a completely different personality."

"You can do that?" Andrew asked thoughtfully.

"That's a simplified example, but yes," Madison told them. "Specifically, I can do that. We've got a couple of days - if you guys want, I'll go by the lab and make a new script based on Erica's original. It'll be functionally identical but there'll be enough obfuscation that it will basically be a blackout."

Ross and Andrew were both out of objections. Ross shrugged. "Ok, I guess we've got a plan."

Erica and Madison shared a high-five over the table and Madison pecked Ross on the cheek. "What would you guys do without us?" she asked playfully.
