Chapter 10: Fixing Frobo

(The episode begins with Anne showing her laptop to Sprig and Hop Pop.)

Anne: "And now, the internet." (opens her laptop. Hop Pop and Sprig are amazed)

Sprig: "The answers to the mysteries of the universe right at your fingertips!"

Hop Pop: "It's an endless well of knowledge!"

Anne: "More like an endless well of cat videos!"

(Sprig and Hop Pop gasp as Anne opens a video of a cat playing the piano.)

All: "Awww!"

Kevin: "I love cats so much! Dogs are cool and all, but cats are very cute too."

Hop Pop: "Do you think he's self-taught?"

(Anne shows them another video of a dancing cat.)

All: "Ooooooooo!"

(There is a loud bang as Polly kicks open the door to the garage.)

Polly: "Guys, guys, guys! I did it! I fixed Frobo! Come on, check it out!"

Anne: "Fixed him?"

Kevin: (lifted an eyebrow) "Fro-who?"

Sprig: "Uh..."

Hop Pop: "Okay, show us Fro-what the?"

Anne: "What the..."

(Polly has attached Frobo's head and arm to a broken washing machine with lots of electrical wires.)

Polly: "So, what do you think? Pretty impressive, right?" (pats Frobo's head and gets zapped by an electric charge)

Anne: (As Polly returns to the ground) "Impressive's one way to put it."

Polly: "You guys ready for this?"

Hop Pop: "Polly, I don't think you should turn him on yet."

Anne: "Yeah. Are you sure you even know what you're doing?"

Polly: "Of course I know whta I'm doing, Anne. Everything's gonna be just (plugs in for the ignition) fine!" (nothing happens)

Sprig: "Something's supposed to happen, right?"

(Frobo fires deadly bolts suddenly, causing Anne and the Plantars to scream.)

Kevin: "YOU JUST HAD TO SAY SOMETHING DIDN'T YOU!?!" (uses Sonic's Speed Shoes to go behind Frobo and unplugged him, shutting him down, much to everyone's relief.)

Hop Pop: (Shakes himself clean) "Polly, what were you thinking? You could've just killed us."

Polly: (nervous) "Sorry. Sorry." (checks the inside of Frobo, which was previously the inside of a washing machine) "I know he's got some kinks to work out, but..."

Hop Pop: "Nuh-uh. Enough of this. I forbid you from working on this robot further."

Anne: "I'm with Hop Pop, Polly. I think we should wait till we get back to Amphibia. Then maybe we can find someone who knows robots, you know?"

Sprig: "I know you miss him, we do too, but you just need to be patient."

Anne: "Hey, (is taking something out of a trash can) how about a new robot friend to play with?" (she gets what she was looking for) "This is (shows it to Polly) Teddy Lumpkins." (Polly gets creeped out.) "He used to be my best friend."

Teddy Lumpkins: "I eat eyes..."

(Anne and Sprig gasped.)

Hop Pop: "What the..."

Kevin: (serious) "If that thing says he's going to eat us, (ready to pick up his sword) I'm gonna..."

Teddy Lumpkins: "...cream. I eat ice cream."

Kevin: (eases up) "Never mind."

Sprig: "Oh."

Hop Pop: "Well, that's fine."

Anne: "Loggle would like this thing."

Polly: "How dare you? Frobo can't be replaced!" (jumps up and slaps Anne to drop Teddy Lumpkins to the ground, rolling toward the garage door)

Teddy Lumpkins: "I want to nibble your fingers. He he." (turns off)

(Kevin, Anne, Sprig and Hop Pop make disgusted sounds.)

Hop Pop: "OK. Creepy bears aside, DON'T work on Frobo."

Polly: (sighs) "Maybe you guys are right."

Anne: "Wow. That's surprisingly mature of you."

Polly: "Mm-hmm. Hey, can I borrow your laptop?"

Anne: "I don't see why not."

Kevin: (After Anne hands Polly her laptop, Polly left with it and Kevin asks Anne:) "So, uh, who's Frobo anyway?"

Anne: (with a sadden look) "He's a robot that we befriended in Amphibia. Polly really cared about him, but he sacrificed himself to protect us."

Kevin: (forms a sad look) "Oh.. I'm so sorry to hear that." (smile) "Hey, you know what cheers me up?"

Anne: "What?"

Kevin: (picks up a game) "Playing all time favorite game in the world: Super Smash Brothers Ultimate! Wanna play with me?"

Anne: (smile widen) "Ah, hell yeah!" (She and Kevin gets ready to play together.)

-Timeskip brought to you by Chibi Anne and Chibi Kevin playing a game together-

(It's nighttime and we see Kevin is walking to the garage only to see Polly is working on Frobo.)

Kevin: "Didn't Hop Pop say to not fix Frobo until you both head back home?" (startles Polly as she turned around)

Polly: "K-Kevin, what are you doing here?"

Kevin: "Checking up on you, what else."

Polly: (sighs) "Are you gonna tell everyone?"

Kevin: "Unfortunately, no. I'm here to help."

Polly: "What?! B-but why?"

Kevin: "Because you're my friend and if you really care about Frobo that much, then he means a lot to me too." (Polly hugged him)

Polly: "Thank you(x3)!" (jumps onto her feet) "Let's get started!"

(After helping Polly working on Frobo for the night while watching IT Gals tutorials to help them, they finally fixed Frobo.)

Polly: "Let's see if it works." (She presses a button, but nothing happens. She screams.) "Why aren't you turning on? Mmm... It's time to call in the big guns."

(A video call starts. IT Gals receive it.)

Ally : "Hello!"

Jess: "How's it going?"

Polly: "Uuh... Hi. My name's Polly (shows Kevin) and this is Kevin."

Kevin: "Hello." (Ally and Jess blushes and drools while seeing Kevin.)

Ally: "Hubba hubba~!" (with a seductive grin) "Who's this handsome devil~?"

Jess: (also with a seductive grin) "Yeah, he's so handsome~!" (Kevin blushed and looks away, which made the IT Gals sighed in lovingly.)

Polly: "Yeah... Anyways. We're big fans. Long story short: I have a bit of a (IT Gals notice Frobo) robotics issue."

Ally : "OH MY GOSH!"

Jess: "Is that a robot?"

Ally : "He's beautiful!" (The robot panda intercepts and tries to speak, but only makes noise. Ally pushes it away.) "Out of my way, Pandatron."

Jess: "Tell us everything."

Polly: "Well, he had a bit of an... accident. I think I've done a pretty sweet job of putting him back together, but he just isn't powering on."

Ally: "Well, what are you using as a power source?"

Polly: "I (shows them a remote control) just took some batteries out of the TV remote."

Ally : "Ooh, no. That will never be enough."

Jess: (While Ally looks for a picture on her cell phone) "You could try a battery module with a compatible connector and corresponding voltage."

Ally : (Shows her a picture that she found) "Like the kind they put in those creepy animatronic children's toys."

Kevin: "Like from Five Nights at Freddy's?"

Ally: "No, but very close. Such a good game, by the way. Have you played it?"

Kevin: "All night long and I wasn't even scared by that time. Though, at first, I was, but I got over it immediately afterwards."

Ally: "Impressive, handsome~."

Polly: "I think I've got just the thing." (looks at Teddy Lumpkins)

Ally : "Oh. But Polly, I definitely wouldn't turn him in your garage."

Jess: "Yeah. You'd need to be in a big space, like a warehouse and have tons of fire extinguishers. That thing looks like it's capable of a lot of output."

Ally : "I'll say it again: DO NOT do this at home."

Jess: "Heck. We can actually help you rent a space. It'll take a couple of weeks, but we--"

Polly: (Talks fast) "Thanks, girls. I'll take that into consideration. Bye!" (cuts the video call)

Ally : "Do you think she's gonna turn that thing on?"

Jess: (worried) "Oooh yeah..." (smile) "You think Kevin is single?"

Ally: "God, I hope so."

(Cut back to the garage: After the video call ended, Kevin looked over at Polly who took out the Teddy Lumpkins' batteries before she jumped on top of Frobo and put the batteries into him.)

Polly: "This is it. When I (looks the red button) hit this button, HE'LL BE BACK!" (She presses the button, activating Frobo.)

Frobo: "Start up engage. Model number F0-R1. Factory settings restored.

Polly: (After getting on Frobo) "Frobo? Is that you? It's me, Polly!"

Frobo: "Username not recognized. Will now attempt to make contact with headquarters. A higher vantage point is necessary."

Polly: "A higher vantage point?"

(Frobo activates his thrusters from his hands and takes off as Polly grabs onto him. She screams.)

Kevin: "Hey, let go-" (Gets backhanded by Frobo, sending him against the wall. That's when Anne, Sprig and Hop Pop arrives.)

Anne: "What's going on?!" (See's Kevin hurt and goes to help him get up.) "You okay, Kev?"

Kevin: "Yeah, but something's wrong with Frobo. I was helping Polly fix him by watching IT Gals, but now he's in factory mode and Polly's with him."

Hop Pop: "Hang on, Polly!"

Anne: "Oh no. Look."

(Suddenly, the thrusters fail.)

Frobo: "Booster malfunction detected."

Polly: "Oooohhh... that can't be good."

(A freefall begins. Polly starts screaming. Kevin, Anne, Sprig and Hop Pop are paralyzed and just after the IT Gals arrive on a scooter.)

Jess: "Hey, do you guys know Polly? Little kid? Has a tail? Built a crazy robot?"

Ally: "Or Kevin? That handsome boy we just chat with on video~?" (with a lovingly smile)

(Anne, Sprig and Hop Pop point up. The IT Gals watch Polly and Frobo as they hear Polly screaming.)

Ally and Jess: (worried) "Oh my gosh!"

Kevin: (serious) "I'll save you, Polly!" (Changes into his Tanooki Suit from Super Mario before he jumps and flies up to Polly and Frobo, while Ally and Jess watched in awe.)

Ally and Jess: "Whoa!"

Polly: "I'M SO SORRY FOR GETTING YOU INVOLVE KEVIN BUT PLEASE SAVE ME AND FROBO!!!"

Kevin: "Don't worry, Polly! I'm coming to save you!" (Grabs ahold of Frobo, but he was too heavy for him to hold as they're still falling.) "Oh my god! You're too heavy! What did you eat, Metal?"

Polly: "FROBO, WE'RE IN BIG TROUBLE!" (looks him in the face and starts to sob) "PLEASE, IT'S ME, POLLY! YOU'VE GOT TO (hits him) REMEMBER! OH, FROBO, I JUST MISSED YOU SO MUCH, AND NOW WE'RE BOTH GONNA DIE." (hugs him) "I'M SO SORRY."

(A tear enters Frobo's interior and reaches his internal hard drive, causing an electrical shock.)

(After remembering thanks to showing certain each episodes back at Amphibia, Frobo regains consciousness as his eyes change to his usual eyes and then he looks at Polly.)

Frobo: "Po... Polly."

Polly: "FROBO! YOU'RE BACK! YAY! Quick, do something! We're about to hit the ground!"

(Frobo tried to save themselves, but his thrusters weren't looking good. So he put Polly in his chest and locks her in before looking at Kevin, who was trying to stop him from falling.)

Frobo: "Keep... Polly... safe."

Kevin: (Eyes widen as tears begin to come out from his eyes) "N-No, Frobo..." (Frobo gets his hands off of him as he fall with Polly.) "FROBO!!!" (Echoey screams like in Metal Gear.)

(Frobo collides with a tree, then on the roof of the house and finally ends up in the backyard. Kevin flies into the backyard and lands as Anne, Sprig, Hop Pop, Ally and Jess joins him.)

(Polly recovers while Sprig charges her.)

Sprig: "She's OK!

(Kevin, who was wiping the tears off, and Anne sighed in relief.)

Hop Pop: "Oh thank frog!"

Polly: (looks at Frobo, who is only his head and then laments) "You guys were right. I was so impatient with bringing him back to life that I killed him all over again."

(Polly starts crying as Kevin, Anne, Sprig and Hop Pop comfort her.)

Frobo: "Po... Polly."

(Kevin, Anne and the Plantars see Frobo lighting up.)

Polly: (gasps) (happy) "FROBO!" (meets with Frobo) "You big lovable lug! I'll fix you right this time and be slow and careful. No matter how much I miss ya." (hugs him before looking at Kevin.) "And thanks for your help, Kevin. I couldn't have done it without you."

Kevin: (Gives Polly a thumbs up.) "Don't mention it, Polly. I'm just glad you guys are safe." (Meets the IT Gals.) "Hey, are you two Ally and Jess from IT Gals?"

Ally and Jess: (blushing) "Y-Yeah." (thoughts) 'Oh my gosh! He totally knows us! I'm geeking out!'

Ally: "N-Now then. Let's have a look at this beau." (Examines Frobo.) "Mmm, sturdy."

Jess: "Impressive!"

Ally: (To Polly.) "Looks like his hard drive is still one piece at least."

Jess: "I think next time. we just need to tune the PID controllers."

Polly: "Oh yeah. Increase his lateral and longitudinal stability. Totally."

Ally: "Mmm... I'm just curious, what was the covariance of the pose estimate coming out out of the SLAM module?"

Polly: ""Simultaneous Localization and Mapping"? Well..."

(Kevin, Anne, Sprig, and Hop Pop watch Polly chatting with the IT Gals.)

Anne: "Wow. Polly really got into this computer stuff, huh?"

Kevin: "I gotta admit, she's growing up to be a computer-wiz someday." (Anne nods with him.)

Hop Pop: "Mmm... Maybe we shoulda used the interwebs to educate ourselves too instead of watching cat videos."

Sprig: (takes out Anne's cell phone) "Did someone say cat videos?"

(Sprig plays a video of cats, and together with Anne and Hop Pop, they start dancing.)

Hop Pop: "Ain't that cute?"

Kevin: (chuckles before he was tapped in his shoulder by Ally and Jess.) "Hey, what's up?"

Jess: "Right when you were saving Polly and Frobo, how on earth did you fly?"

Kevin: "If I told you, you weren't believe me."

Ally: "Try us, handsome~!"

Kevin: (sighs) "All right, then."

(Kevin explains everything to Ally and Jess. Then, we see Mrs. Boonchuy behind the door from inside the house.)

Mr. Boonchuy: (screams) (worried) "The backyard!"

(Fade to black.)
