Taking note of Aurora's glowing heart and the context given by Paley, he quickly concludes that the center of the problem must be in her very soul and that he has a -inator that can help her. Managing to persuade her and Paley to trust him, he leads them to his abandoned self-storage and introduces to them to his Soul-Extractor-Inator, which will safely remove Aurora's soul so it'll be easier to examine it and figure out how to remove the dark energy imbued in it. Alright.

I think while Athena is aware of the possible negative effects of removing a person's soul from their body while they're still alive, Doof presumably gets her to trust his sciences enough to agree.
