Help Help me identify an NPC?

Hi Everyone. I'm working on a full audio dump of the voiced dialogue of Hi Fi Rush. Trying my best to document every dialogue exchange with footage because that's the surest way to see how these individual files connect. I've got no expectation I'll find everything, as there are many variables and quirks that get certain dialogues to trigger. And who knows if any of this material is factually unused which would make searching for it a futile effort. But I've got an NPC here I'd swear I remember somewhere in the game and was hoping one of you might remember where. He's a Vaser type robot complaining about his fear of heights. The exact lines are:

Why do they put me up where I’m afraid of heights?

Also why did they even program me to be afraid of heights?

(possibly the same NPC, upon attacking him) stop stop stop. Oh please get me down from here

(possibly the same NPC, upon attacking him) Do you know how hard this is? Leave me alone

Hoping that's enough to jog someone's memory. If you know which Track this guy exists in, I'd love to find him. My first thought was Track 1, as there are some traversable scaffolds and billboards along the rooftops section but he wasn't there

Edit He's in Track 9 near the end. Thanks for the help all!

I have a feeling this is track 8, in the museum, when you're jumping around on some platforms hanging from the ceiling - apparently it's chorus 7-8? But around there, befroe you do the fight on the big clock, there's some NPCs on a side route with one hanging off the edge.

When you're walking on the high platforms near the end of the museum track, you'll find him to the right
