## History

At the very beginning of the film, it showed a picture of young Mai with her dog Momo, and her parents, Molly and Matthew. Molly didn't wear glasses that time.

Few seconds later, when Molly tried to reason with Matthew about Soccer, she asked him why he was being selfish. He said that he wasn't and then seconds later, he then yelled "Enough!". He then slammed the door, leaving his wife sad and depressed.

When he passed away due to an incident, Molly and Mai came to visit his grave in sadness.

At the beginning credits of the scene, Molly started paying attention to robots more than Mai, because she felt like robots would make her even happy. Later on after the beginning scenes, when Molly was driving Mai to a robot place, where all the new Q-bots are. She told her to do something about her hair. Mai liked it that way, but then Molly brought out a robot comb to help her arrange her hair. When they entered, Molly was mainly focused on robots and less on Mai, which concerned Mai that her own mom liked robots more than her. Molly was completely focused on robots and soon forgot about Mai. When Mai came back to her with a robot, Molly was super excited to meet Justin Pin and she became too hyper. Mai was just bored the entire time. When they drove home, and as Mai came back from Soccer, Molly realized that the kids were mean to her. She came up to her, hoping to comfort her, but was too robot-obsessed to care about her daughter's feelings. When Mai got annoyed and saddened by this, this leaves Molly depressed and tired over what happened to Matthew. When Mai meets 7723, she plans to hide him, where no one would find him. Molly was only focused on her Q-bot. Later on, when Mai hid 7723 again, Molly was with Dr. Tanner Rice and ordered Mai to bring it out. When she did, as Dr. Tanner Rice examined 7723, Molly tried to assure Mai that putting weapons on a robot is dangerous. When Justin appeared, she was super-excited to see him, but then later realized that he was evil. As they ran out of their house, their help with 7723, Justin Pin kidnaps Molly and takes her to his evil place. As Ma finally found her Mom and saved her, Molly realizes that she payed more attention to robots over Mai and felt depressed because of that. Justin plans to attack Mai first, but then Molly jumps right in and attacks him, trying to save Mai. Later on, when 7723 attacks Ares, his memories of Mai lost, and when Ares is defeated, Mai ran to him, and hugged him, then Molly came to Mai and hugged her. At the end of the film, Molly became a kind and supportive Mom of Mai and made sure that 7723 was okay.

## Personality

Molly is described as a hyper woman who really loves robots and would sometimes choose robots over Mai. She seems to be a very joyful character, for example, when she meets Justin Pin and when he gives the latests news about the robots. During the film, she seems to focus more on robots than on Mai, which really angers Mai. Later on, when Justin Pin kidnaps her, Mai tries to save her with 7723, and when she did, Molly realized that she should have payed more attention to Mai and less attention to robots, since Mai is her only daughter. When an evil robot Justin Pin starts to attack her, Molly jumps right in and starts beating him up, no longer a fan of him. When she beats him up, she starts to show a fit of rage and anger when he decided to attack their daughter. When 7723 fought Ares, and had to lose his memories, Molly ran to Mai's side and hugged her near the end. This shows that she changes into a kind and supportive character and a caring mom of Mai. At the end of the film, Molly personality developed into robot-obsessed to kind and caring mother for Mai, which happened throughout the end of the movie.
