Barry?

It's still over-heating.

- Donut?

- Thanks.

- I didn't eat breakfast this morning.

- Oh, you shouldn't do that.

It's the most important donut

of the day.

Yeah, I didn't sleep much last night.

Our family dog passed away

this weekend.

That's so sad,

how long did you have it?

- Eleven years.

- I had a pet goldfish once

I accidentally flushed it down

the toilet.

Luckily, my parents got a new one

so I wouldn't notice

until right now.

That's a strange story, Barry.

I'm gonna get back to work now.

- Thanks, for the donut.

- Hey, no problem.

I just have to this

- a couple more times before Mr. Willis...

- Tom!

Mr. Willis you're early.

Yes, I just couldn't wait to show off

my main man to my main man from Japan.

This is Mr. Sato.

Hello.

Bon jour.

So. Show us something.

May I speak to you in private

for just one second?

I'm not quite sure that it's ready.

Not sure it's ready?

Or it isn't ready?

Those are two very different things.

- Very different.

- Right.

I just think that maybe we could do

a few more tests before we demonstrate.

Well, you had plenty of time

to run your tests over the weekend.

- Jerome, how time is that?

- Three days.

Three days, that's plenty of time.

I understand Mr. Willis.

And this is not a valid excuse,

However.

My family dog died on Friday.

Alright, that's enough.

I understand.

You do?

Yes, I understand that you want me to look

like a fool in front of my business colleagues.

And if there's one thing I hate:

- it's being made to look like a fool.

- Hates it!

Jerome, could you please go over

and stand with Belch?

Yes sir.

The last I want to do

is make you look like a fool.

The last thing you want to do

is to not succeed.

So, is ready?

In theory

Then in theory you still have a job.

Turn it on.

Yes sir.

Sorry Mr. Sato,

just a little pep talk.

Okay, gentlemen:

What you are about to see

is a power source that has the energy

of twenty five car batteries

With the ability to recharge it-self

just by the nature of it's own motion.

Please:
brand-your safety goggles.

Here goes nothing.

I give you the super battery.

Is it a...

Is it working?

Yeah.

Yeah, actually, I think it is.

I'm gonna give it some more juice.

Whoa! Tom! You're a genius.

Do you see that?

Yes!

Crank it up.

Okay.

- We're at thirty five percent, now.

- Okay, crank it up more.

Mr. Willis I think we should play it

safe for now.

Do I pay you to think?

Epic Industries needs epic results.

I'll save you Mr.Willis.

Stop, drop and...

Do something!

Sorry, about that guys.

I told you it could use

a few more tests

But all things considering,

I think it was...

pretty success...

ful?

That one epic hairdo.

Get out! Get out!

Am I fired?

You are the most fired person

in the history of people get-ting fired!

I never want to see you again.

I'll just get my stuff.

No! I will have it sent to you!

Now get out of here before I call security.

Bye Tom.

Bye, Barry

- Mr. Sato, I am so sorry.

- If I could just get my phone.

Get me security.

Wanna take a look

at my solar powered scissors?

Tom?

- Oh... Hi!

- Hi! You're home kinda early?

Yes... funny story.

- Did you get fired?

- Yes! I got fired!

And it doesn't sound as funny

when I say it out loud.

I'm sorry babe. Are you okay?

Yeah. I mean my boss was

being epic-ly ridiculous. So...

Now I can work on my world changing

inventions right here from home.

And I can help you

with the house-work.

Oh, we'll be fine. I'm doing really well

at the office right now.

That's important.

I'm gonna get dinner ready!

No!

Nope, I've already taken care of it.

- You have?

- Yes.

- Is that the smoke detector?

- Dinner's ready.

So, anything exciting

at school today?

Tyler? Earth to Tyler?

Huh?

Your dad just asked you a question,

how was school today?

Oh, uh, yeah. It... it.. it was fine.

Ah.

Nice.

May I be excused, please?

Sure, honey.

Let me know if get hungry later, okay?

Hey?

Hey.

You all right?

I guess.

You know, if you're ready

and only if you're ready.

We could go and look

for a new dog this week.

New dog?

I don't ever want a new dog!

Nothing will ever replace him,

I miss him so much.

I know buddy we all do.

I want him back.

Please, can I have him back?

That is the one thing, Tyler,

I wish I could do.

- But, I can't.

- It hurts so much!

Well, come here.

Nothing wrong

with letting it out okay?

Let me see.

You know I've been there too.

And it's tough,

but you can get through it.

Hey, you feel a little better?

Okay.

Come on, let's go to bed.

Ow!

That, is not a bad idea Mr. Austin.

Where's dad?

He's in the garage.

Darling...

I've come for your toaster.

What is he working on?

I don't know.

As long as he's not cooking.

I heard that.

And, I may or may not have

used portions of your bicycle.

What? Mom! He just... Dad!

Hey, Dad?

You okay in there?

Hey, Tyler?

Is your mother out there?

- I'm right here

- Oh, hi honey!

Wait right here because

boy have I got a surprise for you.

Hey!

- Hi!

- Hi!

What's goin on here?

What's going on with the car?

- I needed some parts.

- What for?

All will be answered momentarily.

Let me present to you my latest

and greatest invention...

The RK-9

What is it?

R stands for Robot,

k9 stands for dog. You get it?

It's a robotic dog.

Check this out

Nice invention Dad.

Well, I'm having

some Power source issues. But...

with a robot this advanced,

it takes a lot of power.

I think it's great, Honey

I'm gonna um...

I'm I'm gonna let

you clean up your creation

and I'm gonna go into the house

and fix dinner.

- I could cook dinner.

- No. Please.

Yes, dear.

Somethin' wrong with your car?

Barry?

You want me to take a look at it?

I took an online class once.

Didn't pass.

Oh, no... no... that's... that's fine.

What are you doing here Barry?

Well, Mr. Willis wanted me

to box up all your stuff and...

deliver it to you.

So, uh, here you go.

Oh, thank you.

Wait a minute.

You got the battery back?

Yeah, I also brought some uh...

staplers and your..

No, Barry, you don't understand

this is the answer to all my problems.

Oh, yeah? What is it

that you're workin on here?

It's my latest invention.

A robotic dog.

Oh, yeah!

Doesn't do all that much.

Well, you should have seen it

about an hour ago.

Cuz it was working perfectly

I've just had

some power issues but...

this is the answer

to all my problems

Before you electrocute me again.

Oh, but I do want to give you this.

It's a gift.

Uh, it's my solar powered scissors.

I figured you could use them.

Barry, I mean honestly,

thank you so much.

No sweat.

And, good luck with your Robo Dog.

Yeah... Robo Dog.

ROBO-DOG

Now, what I need to do

is reflect back the heat of the output

and take that energy back

the main processor

but, how am I going to do that?

Unless I have a...

solar panel?

Barry...

you may be...

a genius.

Temperature is steady.

Power refueling...
