No. Robot Zoe hasn't been hanging out with anyone other than Lacy...and
that seems completely the result of Lacy being the only one that knew about
her still being alive.
Side note #1: I wouldn't even call lacy a mono as she seems
undecided/confused at best...the exact kind of girl who's religious beliefs
are actually the result of what boy she finds cute or what parent she is
acting out against.
Side note #2: for as 'crazy' as the monos are portrayed, the polys don't
seem any more well grounded in their religious beliefs or actions.
