[Of course he'll be careful, that is. But the second inner layer of the bubble makes him feel much better about the attempt; he can easily pierce the outer layer without coming anywhere near Robin.]
I am. I'm working in robotic prosthetics right now - not like these. [Before she can EVEN ASK] The regular kind.
[As he talks, he's trying to punch a hole in the bubble with a claw. It starts careful, but then gets more forceful, enough so that he has to hold the bubble still to keep it from rolling away. There's no exertion on his face - their actions don't wear on him that way - but his brow does furrow after a few seconds. As it turns out, he can't pierce the outer layer regardless of where Robin is!]
This isn't regular plastic. I'm not sure what it is. [Whatever the material, if he can't tear through it, emergency services probably couldn't. Which would be bad for an automobile safety feature!] Are you quite certain it came from the taxi?
