[No, it's really not that important. He's just panicking and completely misreading a situation. Whoops.]

You're not mechanical?

Yeah. And you're made of like. Organic stuff or whatever.

We're "mechanical life forms".

[Thank you Bee for that one.]

Emphasis on the 'life form'.

But how's that different from droids?

I dunno, maybe the whole "actually alive and not just programmed code" thing?

Well how am I supposed to tell the difference?

So how--

[He cuts off sharply, not sure if he actually wants the answer to the question he's on the verge of asking.]

Because I'm actually telling you right now?

... how what?

Didn't someone build you?

[Otherwise, where do they come from...?]

Uhhh... Dunno?

I wasn't exactly like. Conscious for the whole building thing? Or paying attention when they explained it?

Well you've gotta come from somewhere.

The All Spark.

Okay, I have no idea what that means.

It's where sparks come from.

The... shiny things we've all got in us that like. Power us and make us ... us?

Oh.

[ IT'S A DROID WITH RELIGION. ]

[Han no......]

See? Not a droid.

[HE REMAINS UNCONVINCED but maybe arguing is not the right tactic here.]

I guess you'd know better than me. So where are you going on your date?

Oh uh.

To the observation place. That's good right?

I guess? I don't really know what's normal where you're from... Do you eat?

Uh, yeah. Doesn't everybody?

Well, I don't know anything about what you are.

That's a pretty normal date thing, though, I think. In most places.

Autobot. Easy!

Oh, yeah? What about like. Looking at... stuff. Stars and stuff?

I guess that can be pretty nice.

Okay, so, this was a good idea?

No idea.

But, look, if you don't take a shot then nothing happens, right?

Y-yeah, you're right.

... What do you do if you screw it up, though?

Depends how bad you screw it up.
