Young Rodney and his father were now at a restaurant

Okay Rodney. Okay. Herb said

A few minutes later

Young Rodney and his father were back at home watching Bigweld on tv

And now, live from Robot City, it's The Bigweld Show. the tv announcer said

Wahoo! Oh, yeah! Uh-huh! Come on, Dad, you're missing it. Young Rodney said

All right, Rodney. All right, I'm coming. I'm coming. Herb said

Come on dad. Young Rodney said

I'm coming. I had to bring work home with me again, I'm sorry. Mr. Gunk has really been piling it on. Herb said

Don't worry dad let's just watch the show. Young Rodney said

Okay. Herb said

Young Rodney and his father then watched the tv

And now the host of our show, Bigweld. the tv announcer said

He's coming son. Herb said

Oh boy. Young Rodney said

They then saw Bigweld coming in on the screen flying by on a scooper

Welcome. This week I thought you'd like to take a look around Bigweld Industries. Bigweld said

Bigweld started to show off his company

This here is the front gate. Kind of cute, ain't it? Bigweld said

Bigweld then approached the gatekeeper

Good morning, Tim. Bigweld said

Good morning, Mr. Bigweld sir. Tim said

Tim, who closed the front gate? Bigweld said

Well, i just thought since... Tim said

We never shut the gate, Tim. Bigweld said

Why? Tim said

Shutting this gate means shutting out fresh ideas. Bigweld said

Fresh ideas? Tim said

Yes. Fresh ideas. Bigweld said

Could you explain Mr. Bigweld? Tim said

Sure. Bigweld said

Bigweld then approached some robots with their inventions

You see, every day, robots come here from hither and yon...bringing us new ideas. Bigweld said

Do you listen to the ideas from these robots? Tim said

Yes. I listen to every single one of them. Bigweld said

One of the robots tries to use it's invention but it wasn't working he tried to make it work before the top part flew off leaving the low part behind

So remember, whether a bot is made of new parts, old parts or spare parts...you can shine no matter what you're made of. Bigweld said

He's talking to me, Dad. Young Rodney said

He sure is, son. He sure is. Herb said

Okay, folks, let's get to inventing. Bigweld said

A few more minutes later

Young Rodney was now starting to invent stuff while Bigweld talked over

You know, I love to tinker...but all the tinkering in the world isn't useful unless it starts with a good idea. Bigweld said

Young Rodney invented a little robot toy until it exploded

So look around for a need and start coming up with ideas to fill that need. One idea will lead to another, and before you know it... Bigweld said

Bigweld flicked a bunch of dominos turning on a lightbulb

You've done it. See a need, fill a need. Bigweld said

That's it, Dad. I have to look for... Teenage Rodney said

Teenage Rodney saw that his father was asleep

A need. Teenage Rodney said

Teenage Rodney was inventing another invention it was a one eyed robot and this time he was prepared as he was wearing a pot and some goggles

Easy, now. Teenage Rodney said

Teenage Rodney gave the one eyed robot a plate to play with

(Laughs) Teenage Rodney laughed

(Laughs) the one eyed robot laughed

Suddenly the one eyed robot broke the plate and was breaking everything else in Rodney's room until Rodney's parents came in

Hey there, sport. Herb said

Rodney hid the one eyed robot under the pot to keep it hidden

Oh, hi. Teenage Rodney said

These are your 12 year old parts. They're... Herb said

Hand-me-downs. I know, Dad. Teenage Rodney said

The one eyed robot tried to escape the pot but Teenage Rodeny stopped it from happening

I don't mind. Teenage Rodney said

They are from your cousin...Veronica. Herb said

Herb took out a woman's body part

You know how popular she is. Lydia said

(Signs) Teenage Rodney signed

The one eyed robot mocked and laughed at Teenage Rodney before being banged by him

Another few minutes later

We get to see Teenage Rodney progress again from a teenager to an adult as he was graduating from high school and was now working in the restaurant with his father as a cook robot was giving a vacuum robot some nuts and bolts

Here you go. the cook robot said

Thanks. the vacuum nose robot said

Enjoy. the cook robot said

I will. the vacuum robot said

The vacuum robot was sucking the nuts and bolts with his vacuum nose while Rodney was picking up everyone's plates and oil cups before heading into the kitchen to see his father who was tapping something on the back of his hip

Dad? Rodney said

Oh, hey. Herb said

Why are you...? Rodney said

Well soon as you reach the age where your warranty expires, you start falling apart. Herb said

Really? Rodney said

Yup. Pretty soon there's gonna be more duct tape on me. Herb said

Rodney then went over and took out something

Can I try it now, Dad? Rodney said

Oh, Rodney... Herb said

Please? Rodney said

Have you worked all the kinks out of it? Herb said

This is gonna make your job easy. Rodney said

Are you sure? Herb said

I am. Besides i invented it for you. Rodney said

Herb then looked at all the plates before turning to Rodney

Okay. Let's try it. Herb said

Great. Okay, this is it. Rodney said

Rodney showed off the same one eyed robot but instead of one eye it had two eyes

Wonderbot, go to work. Rodney said

The wonderbot then started to clean all of the plates while also cleaning some pots and pans

Wow. Herb said

See? What did i tell you? Rodney said

I have to admit that's impressive. Herb said

It really is. Rodney said

The wonderbot kept working and working until...

Copperbottom! the angry robot said

The wonderbot then stopped working and dropped the plates

Mr. Gunk. Herb said

What is that? Mr. Gunk said

Uh oh It looks like something bad is about to happen what could it be and how bad will it get stay tuned
