JIMMY WATSON - His mother, Marion, teases her son about his dreams to build a large robot ant with a drawing of her son riding on the ant's back. Then it comes true.

Jimmy Watson names his DinoBot "Anthony Maximus Antonious Decimus Meridius," after one of his favourite films: Gladiator. He feels sure that his real steel defender would meet with approval from Russell Crowe and Ridley Scott, even the fictional Maximus Decimus Meridius. Maybe even Stephen Spielberg.

When the DinoBot comes to life on Christmas Day, December 25th, Jimmy believes that Santa Clause may have granted him his wish. From that day on his faithful, artificially intelligent, AI, robotic friend is called Anthony. The other names are codes for actions, which Anthony might act on if given those commands verbally by Jimmy:

Antonious = 

Decimus =

Maximus =

Meridius =

But, only if the mechatronic wonder detects elevated stress levels in Jimmy's voice. Anthony is like the Terminator, in Terminator 2, Judgment Day, a machine that exists to protect Jimmy Watson.
