The Adventure of Robi, The Friendly Robot [S3:E4]
Loar and Roen come to the Sky Cave to help Bear King understand how to use the self-parking feature on his FUV. Baer King explains how he dented his vehicle at the grocery store when Bobo Chico confused him…which Bobo Chico claims wasn’t his fault. Roen says he’d like to have a robot help him do his chores, which inspires Bear King to connect with his friend, a robotics engineer. The four friends get a special visit to the lab and learn that the engineer would like to test her prototype, ‘Robi,’ at Bear King’s home. Bobo Chico is suspicious of Robi and is afraid of the test. Hilarity ensues, and Robi saves Bobo Chico from getting hurt.
