The whole point of the movie is delivered by the maid of the mansion: "The duty of a servant is give her master what they want. A truly good servant is capable of know what his master wants event before the master knows it, and so get if for him". That's so true, and the whole implications of that phrase, in that movie, have - more or less - the same sinister connotations of Lisa investigating - and discovering - exactly what are the fantasies that her master (and various human beings) have.
And then, we have the strange power of rejuvenation. Maybe an effect of being made after the template of a seemingly inmortal, eternally young woman? As a robot, Lisa doesn't seem to mind, and Trudy forgets everything after the act, so maybe this new power could be explored later?
Hi Hector 2. Thanks again for the comments! I have not seen "Gosford Park", but your description fits Lisa's mentality perfectly. She was built and programmed to serve her master (whoever that may be), and that's all she knows. She served Gilbert very simply, through obeying his simple orders. She served Dairy King by helping him carry out his various villainous schemes. Now that she is left alone more often, and forced to fend for herself, she has essentially decided that helping Ted realize his fantasies is the best way to serve him. In a way it can be seen as an evolution of her character, as Akonkid pointed out elsewhere. She is starting to learn to think for herself, but every thought is still aimed at being the best servant she can be.
As for the rejuvenation subplot, it was something I threw in there basically to have a potential story idea to work with down the road. My feeling is that Lisa's special milk only has that effect on older characters like Trudy, because women in their prime don't need it. They are already young, healthy, and vibrant. We may see it pop up again someday, perhaps not. But, I'm glad you liked it!
