Penny Gadget (Nostalgia Critic)

Penny is a minor antagonist in the Nostalgia Critic review of the Christmas special Inspector Gadget Saves Christmas. This version of Penny is far removed from the innocent girl that she was in her respective show. In the review, the Critic bemoans how Penny never received the credit for her help at apprehending Claw. Without any warning, Penny hacks into his review to deliver a message to the world. Fed up with the praise that her uncle, Inspector Gadget received for defeating the nefarious Dr. Claw - despite the fact that she did all of the work - it is revealed that she orchestrated all of the events of the series so that the Metro City police force would be continually busy, giving her the chance to plan her initial rise to power. She openly mocks the viewers for being imbeciles and rants about how she could've produced The Matrix had she had been given the time.

As an adult, Penny eventually designed the Gadget 9000, and intends to use it to spread chaos onto the world. Boasting that her weapon would rival the likes of tanks and stealth bombers, she introduces the Gadget 9000 - a newer, more high-tech incarnation of her bumbling uncle. With her newfound weapon of mass destruction, Penny ends the transmission. The scene then cuts to the Critic sitting at a convention with Cree Summer, Penny's voice actress. Flabbergasted, the Critic tells Summer that her take on a darker version of Penny was successful, but he would've liked her to add "Ooo, I don't like that Gadget." She then tells him that she doesn't do that anymore.
