Lewis' Mother

Lewis' Mother is his biological parent and a minor character in Disney's 2007 animated feature film, Meet the Robinsons. Lewis Robinson wanted to see her so much that it inspired him to invent his Memory Scanner.
==Background==
===Physical appearance===
Only a few brief glimpses of her face are seen in the beginning and toward the ending when Wilbur Robinson takes Lewis Robinson back to his time, but it is assumed that she's a redhead or blonde with curly red or blonde hair in a bun hairstyle and her attire was a red dress with a Shirley Temple collar over a dark, grimy cloak with red pointy shoes. Her attire in Lewis' drawing was a dress, a bow in her hair and some flats or low-heeled shoes.
==Role in the film==
She first appears in the beginning of the film in 1995 abandoning her child at the Sixth Street Orphanage. She silently came to the front door of the orphanage and left Lewis, walking away into the distance. Having disappeared, no one has seen her since and only Lewis has a very faint but important memory. At the end of the film, Lewis travels back in time to the day that he was abandoned and nearly stops his mother but backs out, having accepted the past and knows he'll have a true family in his future because of it. As Lewis is backing out he slips on the pavement but causing the scraping noise she heard at the beginning of the film though Lewis hides before she can see him. This alert prompted her final decision to leave Lewis revealing his own ordeal and resolve is the result of a bootstrap paradox. 
It is unknown on why she had given Lewis up for adoption, but it seems given her appearance, she was too poor to take care and provide for him. To cheer Lewis up, Mildred told him she assumed that his biological mother wanted to give him a better life (which was not true), but he believed it at first and wanted to travel to the past and see his mother.
==Trivia==
*According to the DVD commentary of the film, it is claimed by the film's creators that her CG body model is the same as Franny Robinson's, just with a cloak.
*When Lewis Robinson asked his future self (Cornelius), if he had ever met her, he answered nervously and cryptically that Lewis would have to find out for himself. This presumably refers to Lewis' later attempt to meet her before abandoning this plan.
*A deleted scene that shows Lewis using the Memory Scanner on himself successfully instead of Dr. Krunklehorn would have shown him getting a glimpse of his mother, possibly before she gave him up. He turned off the Scanner after a moment, deciding it was enough for him. It is interesting to note that in this deleted scene, it you look very carefully, Mrs. Harrington's character model is clearly used, albeit appearing in heavy shadows.
*Her character model was also used for Mrs. Harrington. Both characters have identical dresses, hairstyles, faces and body shapes. This has led some to make the case that Mrs. Harrington is in fact Lewis' mother. Several moments that imply this are during the adoption interview scene (one where she seems to be impressed at Lewis' sketches of his inventions and the other when she holds her husband back and says "hold on, wait a second", wanting to stay as long as she can). However, she still rushes out and leaves soon afterwards.
