O'Shay reveals it to Astro, but there is a huge gap between knowing something and actually believing it, especially an information that tells you that you are a robot. While scanning his hands, he said something like "so it is true". He knew it, but still had to acknowledge it.

Being a developper, I can tell you that this is next to impossible. By throwing a little bit of Gödel's theorem I'm sure it can even be proven to be mathematically impossible. The trick would be to lead your mind around the "holes" of the exceptions in the programation. I think this is similar to countering a brainwash by finding the inconsistencies in the false memories.
The real sign that someone has become a fanatic is that he completely loses his sense of humor about some important facet of his life. When humor goes, it means he's lost his perspective.

Then you'd go to the hospital to get checked out for MASSIVE BLOCKAGE :d oh:and your circuits would cause the MRI to malfunction - or even worse - EXPLODE. :o hmy:

That would be the end of the copy of your former self!

If I were Astro, I think the point I would've sussed out that I wasn't an 'ordinary boy' would be later that day, after spending hours reading those boring books
(ImageDaaad are you sure I liked this trash!?) upon skipping to the bathroom and realizing with great horror my pants were fused to my body, and there was no toilet paper!

NOOOO!!!! TOILET PAPER!!!!!!!!!!!!
