“Ivy had seen it in a movie. “There was this guy who made a giant robot, and then he struck it with lightning, and it sat up,” Ivy explained. “That’s what we’re going to do with Zellaphine.” Bean looked at Zellaphine’s drooly lips and imagined her alive. Yuck. “Where are we going to get the lightning?” “The guy in the movie had to use lightning because it was a long time ago and that was the only electricity he could get,” Ivy said. “But now we have plugs.” She pointed to the outlet. “We’ll plug her in and charge her up.” Bean had a feeling it wouldn’t work, but if it did, Ivy was going to be in big trouble. “You’re going to have to change her diapers, you know.” “No way,” said Ivy. “That’s a mom-thing.” “You should ask your mom first, then.” Ivy went downstairs to talk to her mom and came back a few minutes later, holding a plug. “My mom says that if I make Zellaphine come alive with electricity, she will be happy to change her diapers because she supports scientific progress. She even gave me her phone plug for the charging.” One end of Ivy’s mom’s plug was a regular plug, but the other end was shaped like a tiny straw. It was easy to jam it into the hole where Zellaphine’s bottle was supposed to go. Bean had wanted to stick it right into the top of Zellaphine’s head, but Ivy thought it would be mean to make Zellaphine come alive with a hole in the top of her head. “See? I’m getting less spoiled already!” she said. In the movie, the robot came to life on a special table, so Ivy and Bean laid Zellaphine out on the table in Ivy’s magic lab. The table was covered with tinfoil, so that it looked like a real lab table.”
