Tova:
Gee, this doesn't look set up by Momo at all. No, sir.

Funny thing, the only reason I'd heard of the term or the drink at all is from recently reading Stephen King's 11/22/63.

Momo is an AI. She doesn't need to wear glasses to run Augmented Reality, it is her natural medium. She's instantly aware of Dale's shift-hours too.
It's interesting that she's running with Japanese greeting body-language, which generally she does not. Possibly because it is her home, or maybe she's playing the Yamato nadeshiko for May's benefit. Her iron fist is grinning through the velvet glove a little though. I approve.

Momo went with the Japanese style greetings when she occupied her older chassis.
I also approve of her method of dealing with an extremely rude and crude entity.

--- End quote ---
I have to say I normally prefer my women a bit more brash and shield maiden esque, but there is a certain appeal to the Yamato nadeshiko. An iron fist wrapped in silk remains an iron fist, even if it is briefly a bit more pleasant to be smacked with then just the shield maiden's axe/gauntlet.
Also I don't think Momo would know Dale's exact shift. I think she's guessing from the close time of the pizza place and the times they've ordered before and Dale has delivered, including Dale's previous truce offering. Further support: Shifts really aren't put online at any restaurant I've worked for, but they can be easily figured out via deductive reasoning. Elementary my dear Marbear!
Random Japanese body language note. I've picked up holding a flat hand straight up by my face with a slight nod of a bow as a non-verbal apology. I have no idea where I picked it up, but it is normal in Japan.
Sidhekin:
Momo usually doesn't need to carry out her threats.
Clinton and a mother board are the only ones I recall her frying. And I guess she pounded Pintsize and the squirrel.
In none of those cases do I recall threats, mind ...
altheora:
...Or Momo could've been *reeeeally* sneaky and simply bribed and/or explained the situation to the manager of the pizza place to get him to give Dale that pizza last. That probably wouldn't be "AI" enough for you guys, though. =P
