Mr_Rose:
Or she heard about the incident through the grapevine (with names redacted of course) and never connected it to Melon because Melon forgot to mention it, or mentioned she had to get some repair work done but never got around to naming the company or the nature of the damage.
aliensporebomb:
She's known as Melon but would that be Carnegie-Melon? I kid.
ckridge:
No one in this strip will ever get laid again because the author has lost his ADHD meds and can't find them again till he takes some.

I'm thinking more akin to cousins in terms of social distance (eg, not very far at all, almost but not quite siblings), but something on BenRG's model none the less. Melon's impulse to break the door down rather than keying in the code fits with her solution to the Steve's box of Cereal Challenge (gnawing it open with her teeth or whatever they are).
Or Melon may just be someone Roko came into contact with on the job, connected with, and took her under her wing. She is, after all, a particularly strange model that seems to attract similarly strange inhabitants. O'Malley, no doubt, told Roko "No good deed goes unpunished" and probably isn't shy about saying, "I told ya so," when Melon does something interesting.
(Is that Roko's hip flask equivalent thumb drive on the coffee table? And who's the glass of water (assuming it is water) for, the cactus?)

Steve’s box of cereal was already open. And empty. Melon was eating the box. But yes, it still fits. Also fits with her getting into Steve’s place via a tunnel in the basement (a tunnel which – based on Steve’s remark – wasn’t there before) instead of just knocking on the door.

My first thought was that it was a remote control or keyless entry device of some sort. I think the water is probably Roko’s. It is, I suspect, psychosomatic. She doesn’t need to drink it... she just needs to have it.
