Wombat:
Does this confirm Beepatrice as using she/her, or is there any direct WoG otherwise (like maybe these characters don't know Beep's pronouns)? I remember being unsure about some references in the past, while personally hoping for they/them.
BenRG:
Wow, Roko is taking charge, isn't she? Given Beepatrice's reaction, this may be the first time someone actually came into that office and decided to do something! For what it's worth, "She means well" is an example of damning with faint praise. Roko likes Beeps, but she can't say that they are really any good at this caper!
Meanwhile, I have to laugh with May basically saying that she pre-emptively denies consent to Beepatrice in any way having management or any influence over her case.
As for the password thing. I'm pretty sure that the admin password for the office network is going to turn out to be "1234567890"!

When this was first mentioned to me (last week, I think), I was quite surprised because I don't remember this being mentioned in any of their previous appearances. Has Beepatrice mentioned this to Roko? Is there any reason why Roko should know? Is it the sort of thing someone will come out with when meeting someone for the first time? I'm wondering if Jeph is setting up Roko and Beepatrice discussing this at some point in the immediate future.

There's an excjange in Transformers Prime that I think addresses this nicely:
Arcee: Maybe it needs one of these doohickeys... [Holds up a part]
Jack: You're a motorcycle, Arcee. Shouldn't you know how to build a motorcycle engine?
Arcee: You're a human, Jack. Can you build me a small intestine?
EDIT: note to self; refresh page and search for responses before responding.

Hey at least you have good taste in cartoons :P.
cybersmurf:
Right now, Beepatrice feels like trying to quench a fire with a squirt gun... and is unable to find the trigger.
Meanwhile, Roko is looking for a fire extinguisher. Let's hope she does get a working one.

Poor May.

Support groups are important. I forgot about that. So they are actually good at something.
