Robotic Sydney Greenstreet

Maybe I've been watching Casablanca too much, but I think that if I were running a piano bar I would want a robotic Sydney Greenstreet in the back room.
For one thing, he could hang onto my fez for me. He could also be programmed to listen for laughter and then laugh along. We could get the sound clips for his laughter from The Maltese Falcon, a movie in which Greenstreet spends an inordinate amount of time chuckling.

Maybe you could hire a descendant instead. The robot scares me!

I think robotic character actors come standard with piano bar purchases, so you're cool. Moroccan piano bars are usually equipped with fez racks, too, in case you get stuck with Peter Lorre, who would be EVEN MORE TERRIFYING with a fez.
