I think I did it.

Oh, yeah! I did it!

Grandma's mink?

Sorry Grandma.

I miss you buddy.

Dog, dog it's you!

I love you!

I love you, too Tyler.

Do ya like him?

What?

Are you okay? DOG!

- Not technical

- Hello, Miranda.

What did you do?

Family, may I introduce you.

Robo-dog.

Robo-dog?

- Robo-dog?

- I am Robo-Dog

Uh, how did you this?

Honey.

Well, it was actually rather easy

once I figured out how to harness

the incredible energy

from the super battery

without burning the house down

Why, does he look like Dog?

Because, you said

that you wanted him back.

And I don't know if you know this

but bringing a dog back to life

is virtually impossible.

Unless, your old man builds

you a robotic version.

He's got some of the personality

traits of Dog,

yet he doesn't eat, he doesn't sleep,

he doesn't chew on things,

and Ma he doesn't poop or pee

in the house!

- I like that, that's good.

- I thought you might like that.

Isn't he the coolest?

I am the coolest.

I guess.

Well... I'm gonna let you two

get acquainted.

Good Champ.

You too Tyler.

- Get some sleep, honey.

- Yeah.

Tyler.

You know he's doing this to

cheer you up.

I know but it's just weird...

Yeah, well sweetie, just make effort.

I mean, who knows?

You guys may end up

being the best of friends.

- That would be swell.

- I... seriously doubt it.

- Goodnight honey.

- Goodnight mom.

- I love you.

- Love you.

- I love you, too Miranda.

- Okay maybe this is a little weird.

Just to let you know...

I don't care what they say.

We will never be friends... ever.

Why won't we be friends?

Well, number one...

You won't stop staring at me.

Why don't you blink?

What is blink?

Blink. This is blink.

Like this?

Yeah.

What is number two?

Number two is that you aren't

a real dog.

That is correct.

- You don't even act like a real dog.

- You can teach me.

Why?

Why not?

Because.

- Because, why?

- Because it's weird.

Tyler, I do not want to be weird.

I would really like to be more a real dog.

Please assist.

Maybe. We can talk about it tomorrow.

I'm tired.

I don't wanna think.

- What is that?

- They are my eyes.

- Are they flashlights?

- Affirmative.

Why do you have flashlights

in your eyes?

I use them to illuminate the night.

Can you shut them off please?

Real dogs don't have flashlights in their eye.

- Sorry.

- Okay. Thanks. Good night.

Good night, Tyler.

So, how's it going

with your new friend?

Mom, I told you,

he's not my friend.

Excuse me.

What are you guys doing today?

Well, I'm teaching him

how to be a dog.

Today's lesson is how to stay.

Watch this.

Robo-Dog, Stay.

- Wow!

- Isn't that cool?

He won't move at all until I say.

Come on.

Now, watch this.

Robo-dog up.

Now, stay.

Isn't that funny?

Betcha he'll stay that way all day.

Tyler, if you're not going to be nice to him,

you can do something productive, like,

clean your room.

Okay I'll play with him.

Perfect, after you clean your room.

Okay.

C'mon.

Can I help?

I don't know,

can you clean all this for me?

Affirmative.

Cool.

Vacuuming the rug Vacuuming the rug.

Do do do do doo.

TYLER?

What're you doing?

Playing video games.

I asked you to clean your room

not Robo-dog.

What's the difference.

Well, the difference is

is that your Dad made you a dog,

not a maid that you can use

to clean your room

Then why did he install

a vacuum in his butt?

I have no idea what goes on inside

your father's head sometimes.

- Hey. I just got to level fifty.

- I really don't care.

Because what I need you to do right now

is take Robo-dog outside

and teach him how to be a real dog

like you promised.

- Let's go!

- Fine.

C'mon Robo-Dumb

It's Robo-Dog. It's Robo-Dog.

Okay. First things first.

Let's see what you know.

Sit!

Pretty good.

Something, still isn't right.

Oh, I know do this.

Why?

- Real dogs do that all the time.

- Like this?

Right. Now, lie down.

Good. Now, let's do something

a little bit harder.

Shake.

- Whoa! What was that?

- It is my fifth arm.

What other gadgets

do you have hidden in there?

I have over 42 different techniques

and upgrades.

Including night vision,

Heat sensors

Rosetta stone,

a vacuum, and GPS.

Okay, I got it.

SBack to dog stuff.

This is a ball.

We use this to play fetch.

So, when I throw it, you're supposed

to run after it and bring it back to me.

Why?

Cuz, that's what dogs do.

I guess.

- So, are you ready?

- Affirmative.

Like that?

What are you doing?

You're supposed to run

after it and give it back to me.

Why?

Because, it's fun.

Now, let's try that again."

Well, that was a a little fast,

but it's a start.

Now, you are being ridiculous.

What? You're to keep fetching it

over and over.

I thought you said this was fun?

Forget it.

Let's try something else.

Oh, I know!

Okay take one side.

With your mouth.

Now what?

You have to try to get it out

of my hand.

See?

You can't get it out...

RO BO DOG:

That was fun.

Again, again!

NO... No thank you.

I think we need to do something that's

a little more safe... for me.

Like what?

Hey, I... I know

You can chase cars.

Why?

You want to be more like

a real dog, right?

- Affirmative.

- There's a car right now.

Go!

What the heck's goin' on

for crying out loud.

Robo-dog put the car down.

That was fun!

C'mon, I know a place we can go.

What is this place?

It's a dog park.

It's where you learn to become a dog.

What do I do?

One thing you can't do is talk.

So, I guess just go around

and watch the other real dogs.

See what they do.

What is he doing?

Sniffing your butt.

Why?

Actually, I don't know.

A bunch of dogs do that because,

I guess that's a way to get to know you.

Wow. Looks like a lot of dogs

want to get to know you.

Awkward.

Not as awkward

as someone hearing you talk!

Sorry.

Go fetch!

I got it!

Great!

One small step for dog kind.

Wow, it's getting late.

We should get home.

I think I'm getting the hang of this!

Initiating GPS.

Continue straight

for 30 and turn left

I know where I'm going.

- In 295 feet, turn left.

- Okay, that's really annoying.

In 290 turn left

- It's Chloe!

- Who is Chloe?

- She's a girl I like.

- Have you sniffed her butt yet?

- No.

- Do you want to sniff her butt?

- No! That's gross.

- But...

- Just, please be quiet.

- Hey, Tyler.

Hi! Chloe!

Oh, did you get a new dog?

Uh... sort of.

It looks just like dog.

- What's his name?

- Robo-dog.

No, really, what's his name?

Robo-dog.

He's a robot dog

my dad made for me.

That's... cool.

- You don't believe me?

- No...

Here watch.

Say something Robo-dog?

- That's a cute trick.

- It's not a trick.

Sure.

So, what are you doing now?

Just headin home.

Oh, is it okay if I walk with you?

Sure.

- I mean, sure.

- Okay.

- Thanks for walking me home.

- No problem.

So, what're you doing tomorrow?

Just teaching a new dog old tricks.

Well, I'm going downtown,

maybe I'll see you and Robo-dog there.
