Emmy was then shipped to her new home, and, on a Christmas morning, [[Ted Delaire]] unveiled her to his wife [[Angela Delaire|Angela]] and his daughter [[Madeline Delaire|Madeline]], who warmlywarmy accepted the Nandroid.<ref>[https://www.webtoons.com/en/challenge/emmy-the-robot/christmas-morning-/viewer?title_no=402201&episode_no=27 Dominic Cellini - ''Emmy the Robot'' chapter 15 on Webtoon.

At some point shortly prior to Madeline's 8th birthday, Emmy received a new software update via mail.<ref>[https://www.webtoons.com/en/challenge/emmy-the-robot/new-update-/viewer?title_no name=402201&episode_no=46"serial_number" Dominic Cellini - ''Emmy the Robot'' chapter 34 on Webtoon.

The issue ultimately culminated into Emmy losing consciousness and involuntarily destroying Madeline's birthday cake, with her arm spraying the cake with fire extinguishing foam seemingly on its own accord in response to perceiving the candles on the cake as a fire threat. [[Ted Delaire|Ted]] attempted to stop Emmy, but was sprayed as well.<ref>[https://www.webtoons.com/en/challenge/emmy-the-robot/make-a-wish/viewer?title_no=402201&episode_no=63 Dominic Cellini - ''Emmy the Robot'' chapter 51 on Webtoon.

Laying unconscious in the landfill, Emmy was eventually awoken when her right arm was stolen by small scavenging robots known as [[Minor Characters#Nabs|Nab]]s.

After Emmy ran away from Aunt Ginny's she spent some time traveling around Dupont, looking for a way to return home.
