 * There was also a scene idea where despite EmotiBot's deactivation, Yaya and Ying continued to sing and dance while Koko Ci continued to be emotional because EmotiBot's deactivation only happened in the room where BoBoiBoy and the others were present. But the producers didn't have enough time to continue it so they ended it.
