History[]
Scientist works with and assists Patch in the factory beginning as teenager or young adult and into old age. She might be his creator.
Personality[]
She is caring for Patch and seems to always understand what he needs. Her modesty is implied by her lack of desire for Patch's recognition.
Episode appearances[]
"Abipa, The Promised Planet"[]
Kaiba takes a look at what's inside some of the boxes in Patch's memories, looking through pictures. There's one of a factory, a brunette girl with glasses and a body, another body, another body with the same girl again (this time wearing a nice kimono), the girl again. Kaiba closes the memory and chooses instead to look into Quilt's.
A record player can be seen, but Kaiba can't play it. He looks around the room instead, settling on a stationary camera that's around the level of the desk.
"It's been recording this workbench for hundreds of years."
Footage from the camera shows the Scientist from earlier walking towards Patch's body. She cleans up and then plugs him in.
Patch appears to be working on something, his back is turned to the camera. "It's gone!" Patch repeats, until the Scientist leaves him a wrench. He doesn't seem to notice her, instead focusing on the wrench. "There it is!"
Patch eats a large meal facing the camera.
The Scientist is seen pulling Patch's tail to plug him in.
Patch faces away, working on something. The Scientist comes in just to do a peace sign at the camera.
While Patch works, she checks on him, this time wearing a red kimono. He seems oblivious to her.
The Scientist returns as an old woman. She places something mechanical in front of her, facing the camera. Patch says, "I'm going to stitch up the corpses of many dogs in order to give life to one!" The old woman attaches wires from the mechanical object to her head. The device beeps, and then spits out a memory chip onto the table.
"Finished!" Patch shouts, and Quilt's body is in front of him. "Oh yeah, you've got no memories. Is there anything... is there anything..." He turns around. "Oh! There's one! I wonder whose it is? I always have everything I want beside me! Use this!" He puts the memory chip into Quilt.
Later, Patch is beaten up by thieves.
Patch's body is glitchy and discolored as it lays on an operating table, and Kaiba and Baby stand at the foot of it, with Baby's voice distorted as it says, "Let's get started on repairing him."
The glitchy surrealism fades away as a young woman's voice is heard.
"No. I'm a scientist."
The brown-haired girl with glasses from earlier is seen, standing near the head of Patch's body. "Let me repair him."
"I'll provide the facilities, then." Baby says. The girl takes Patch's hand into her own.
Other notes[]
- It is unclear if Patch acknowledges her existence or companionship. He does not seem to consciously recognize that Scientist exists: he completely ignores her and talks to himself in the video recording. But the photos of her in Patch's memory indicate that he has some kind of knowledge of the years she spent with him.
- It is implied that the Scientist created Patch, as she understands his body enough to be able to repair it.
- It is unknown what happened to Scientist's body after her memories are transferred to Quilt.
- It is unknown if the scientist girl at the end of the episode is the Scientist, but it is highly implied. How she received her younger body again is unknown.
