Slightly distracting, but worth it.
(On the other hand, the female assistant set off some gender-stereotypes-icky warning bells in me. Despite your obvious attempts at avoiding this. I'm probably just projecting some unfavourable impressions of the source material on your adaptation, but you may still want to be aware of this possibility.)
Oddly, I made the assistant female partially because having a mad scientist with a male assistant (Igor fetch brains, master...) felt too stereotypical.
I also considered making Dr. Zany himself female, but there the character felt so strongly male that my brain just wouldn't go along with it.
