Cueball chooses to be resentful about the lack of flying cars while calling her from a phone on which he can buy and read books. He should instead be amazed at the current state of computers and communication technology. She continues to say that she even interrupted him in playing a {{w|3D computer graphics|3D}} {{w|shooter game}} on his phone, when she called him. And the call could have been a {{w|video call}}, had it not been because Megan chose not to do so, since she is currently shirtless.

Typically, Cueball keeps fixating on the flying car. Megan assumes that if he ever had a flying car he would crash it while using his smartphone to text or play ''{{w|Angry Birds}}'' (a game released in 2009, two years before this comic). Given that many car accidents happens because people {{w|Mobile phones and driving safety|use their phones while driving}}, this seems a realistic assumption.

The title text references {{w|RealDoll}}, known as "the world's finest lovedoll", but specifically an {{w|android (robot)|android}} version, which the world has yet to see. This is a direct callback to the [[:Category:Android|android series]]. It also refers to {{w|jet pack|jet packs}}, another invention that many people were expecting to have by this point in time. Cueball complain on in the title text that there is not enough space on the backseat of his flying car to have sex with his android girlfriend when they are both wearing their jet packs. (Maybe they would wear those for safety purposes when flying in a car while having sex... Even if it is a {{w|Autonomous car|self-driving}} flying car...)
