Well, Faye suggested she pay only for materials, but Momo insiste on supporting their business. The $47 is what's left of her payment, once the materials are paid for. Which means that $47 is going to have to cover that days share of electricity, rent of both workspace and apartment, insurance, food, taxes, etc.

Welcome, new person, I dig the handle.

Well, Bubbles, I think Faye was joking right up until she opened her mental balance sheet and realised just how badly you guys are doing. The fact is that you two need a few more four-figure jobs if this shop is going to last more than a few months!
Yes, it looks like things are getting tough for Faye and Bubbles and I believe that the time has come to revisit some options that they previously rejected like bribing Clinton to spam around good on-line reviews. I don't think that they'd have to pay May to sing and dance whilst wearing an advertising sandwich board and handing out promotional leaflets; something tells me she'd regard that as recreation. The big problem would be paying for the materials!
I wonder if this is all being set up for some kind of surprise "sugar daddy" reveal. The two ideas that occur to me are:
* Punchbot offers them the exclusive maintenance deal for the legal robot fighting arena;
* SpookyBot makes them an offer that they cannot refuse, if they want to cover their rent and bills. That said, carrying out the modifications to turn a set of mild-mannered synthetics into superheroes seems a bit strange.Regarding the second option, I was inspired by a guest strip (I think it was by Danielle Corsetto) where Pintisize tries to convince the Synthetic Ladies to be lady wrestlers. I just loved the costumes and gimmick weapons!
SmilingCat:
How involved were they in the actual dunking part of restoring Momo's hair? That apparently took hours, and the time in and of itself was worth something.

Not all hours of labour are labour-hours.
