Bumblebee had just been poking at a human-sized book that somebody left lying around; he doesn't get to read books often. E-books, yeah, but paper books? The fingers don't really work with paper very well. He happens to glance up in the human's direction, and waves.

Or falling in love with them like that episode of the Twilight Zone, but that's an entirely different type of robot.
At least, Seymour reassures himself, this robot can't go on any rampages here.
