The golem fidgeted about, randomly looking at items that were nothing close to those on the list. Eventually, it got lonely, and poked Mimsy until she returned to proper consciousness.
"Soo...what are your plans?" Allan asked, flashing a smile and a victory sign. Then another victory sign.
This was the wrong question to ask.
She took the opportunity to explain many of her theories and the current progress on each of them, moving through a very detailed flow chart of cause and effect.
If she had never joined Deus Ex, she would never have explained string theory to a golem construct next to personal massagers and fuzzy handcuffs. This had clearly been the correct choice.

The golem's attention span was dwindling. Mimsy paid for the shirt and left the shop to follow Allan, who gained a sudden interest in expensive handbags.
"Allan," she called, hands on her hips. "There is absolutely nothing of necessity in this shop."
The golem seemingly agreed, turning up its nose to snobbishly say that it didn't want to wear any of that. It turned around on its heel and marched directly back into Spencer's.
Mimsy rubbed her face with her hands, smudging her makeup, and followed after it.
With most of the clothing taken care of, Mimsy opted to search for a laser pointer of some sort. There were several light products, which she began to look through.
Somewhere on the other side of the store, Allan shouted that his hair barrettes were fabulous. Again.
Before they could leave, Allan encouraged her to try it on too. She could not try on a laser galaxy, so she just bought a second one, hoping that might appease it.
The selection in the store was far from the items on the list again, so Mimsy didn't expect to find anything useful in here. The golem surprised her by heartily approving of one of the glittering headbands that she held in her hands.
With a shrug, Mimsy bought it. A headband was close enough.
Allan must have decided by himself that some piece of jewelry arbitrarily made his butt look big, because he insisted upon the purchase of another item instead.
Technically, it fulfilled the last item on the list, so Mimsy was happy to oblige.
Without even waiting to rejoin Lucky, she went directly back to the island.
