Line 4:
*** [[Word of God]] confirms the infant explanation if you watch the DVD commentary.
*** Likewise, the infant explanation is referenced in Peter Gabriel's song Down to Earth, written for the movie, in the line "Coming down to Earth/Like babies at birth".
** The first time watching WALL-E, I thought that his {{spoiler|reawakening by EVE's kiss at the end}} was pure [[Deus Ex Machina]], as I didn't see how {{spoiler|that little spark could do all that}}. Then, rewatching {{spoiler|their first kiss}}, I realized that you could interpret {{spoiler|his [[Post -Kiss Catatonia|reaction]] as a system reboot}}. As such, the whole thing makes perfect sense: when {{spoiler|EVE repairs him after his fatal system crash, he boots up in safe mode, with just the base operating system running. One clean reboot later, and all user customization is restored, including 700 years of learned personality.}} -dscrank
** I realized what [[Beta Couple]] Mary and John represented after seeing their names next to each other. They represent mankind, plus they are two of the three humans who actually meet WALL-E. Do their names remind you of anyone? Hint: Think Mary and Joseph. The ending of WALL-E is {{spoiler|mankind creating a new beginning on Earth,}} it could be a way of saying their sins were being purged. Not sure if this was intentional, but it sure fits! -Gallows
*** I figured (thanks to the entry directly above) that is was Mary Magdalen and John the Baptist- The two most commonly-recalled Apostles. They helped spread the word to which WALL-E had opened their eyes, even after WALL-E got [[The Messiah|taken down]] in a [[Hoist By His Own Petard|self-defeating]] plan to keep the status quo from shifting. -[[JET 73 L]]
