In one universe, teenaged mad scientist Professor Awesome, alias Eric, once got into an argument at school with Judy, a girl with whom he'd become somewhat acquainted, because she wanted to put together a robotics project.
Eric felt mildly jealous that she was getting into his own area of expertise, and also tried to dissuade her by telling her that as he was a mad scientist while she was just “an ordinary smart person”, he had a natural advantage and it would be unfair of him to let her try and fail to beat him — something which, obviously, she did not take very well. Going home, Eric tried to talk about it with his Mom, who mistakenly assumed, upon hearing that Judy was a girl, that Eric had some kind of romantic interest in her. Their talking at cross purposes did nothing for Eric's mood and he dropped in on Jenny and Kim, only for them to make the same mistake. (PROSE: Misunderstandings)
