Chapter 18

Back in Rivet Town, Herb was washing the dishes when his wife came in with the news.

Lydia said "Herb! Herb!"

Herb asked "Honey, what are you doing here?"

Lydia said "It's Rodney, Garfield, and Odie, honey."

Herb asked "Rodney, Garfield, and Odie? Are they all right?"

Lydia said "Come outside. Hurry."

However, his boss, Mr. Gunk, appears.

Mr. Gunk asked "Copperbottom, where are you going? What about the dishes?"

The Copperbottoms looked at each other and nodded. Herb then takes off his dishwasher equipment and shoves it on his boss, following his wife out of the diner.

Mr. Gunk said "Hey, get back here! You'll never wash in this town again."

The parents went outside to see the town full of robots.

Herb said "What is all this? The whole town is out here. Rodney, Garfield, Odie?"

Rodney said "Dad! There's someone I want you to meet."

Herb asked "Is that...?"

Rodney replied "That's Bigweld, Dad."

Garfield said "The greatest robot in the world. Besides you."

Bigweld said "I understand you need a few parts."

Herb said "Well, I'm not one to complain."

Bigweld said "Well, then don't. I've brought enough parts to make two of you." He speaks through the microphone "Ladies and gentlebots...." It echoes "I came all this way..." he said to the microphone bot "Would you cut that out? It's very distracting."

Mike Bot said "Sorry. Sorry. Sorry."

Bigweld said "Where was I? Mr. and Mrs. Copperbottom, I came all this way....to tell you in person that your son, and your pets, Rodney, Garfield, and Odie....the man, the cat, and the dog who got me off my big titanium tochis....is now my right-hand bots and my eventual successors."

The citizens cheered, and Rodney's mom hugged them.

Robot cheered "Way to go, Rodney, Garfield, and Odie!"

Female Robot cheered "You're my hero, Rodney, Garfield, and Odie!"

Rodney said "Oh, Mom."

Herb said "Son."

Rodney hugs his father "Dad, I know you kind of felt bad when we was growing up that you couldn't give us a lot of stuff. But you gave us the most important thing: You believed in us."

Herb said "From the second you were born."

Rodney said "Well, Dad, now I want your dream to come true. Dad, you always wanted to be a musician."

Garfield gets out a horn-like instrument "Now be one, for everyone to hear."

The crowd cheers for Herb. Wonderbot put a sash on herb.

Fire Hydrant Bot cheered "Good for you, Herb! You did good!"

Bench-Sitting Robot cheered "Good job!"

Bench-Sitting Robot 2 cheered "Way to go."

Tin Man said "Now I'm sure I've got a heart, because it's aching."

Herb Copperbottom said "You'll have to forgive me. I'm a little rusty."

The crowd laughed. Herb is doing a poor job of playing the instrument Garfield gave him. As he plays, it starts to make a melody.

Crank said "Well, there goes our happy ending."

Fender said "No. It's a fusion of jazz and funk. It's called "junk.""

Soon, Wonderbot and the Rusties start to join in by playing their own music to match the tone. Herb then starts playing "Get Up Offa that Thing" as a robot band joins him.

Lydia shouted "I love you, Herb!"

Bigweld comes over to Diesel and hands him a voice box. He inserted it in his mouth and soon, he was singing like James Brown. Everyone was dancing on the streets of Robot City. Including the break dancing robot in the subway from robot city. Who had piper join in dancing with him. As the crowd joins in. Garfield and pomni danced. As aunt Fanny and Bigweld danced too, with Wonderbot, CatDog break dancing. Robots were launched in the air, including the robot dog. During this, Loretta finds Fender and Jax in the crowd.

Loretta shouted "Fender, Jax!"

Fender and Jax said "Loretta, my darling."

When she jumps into their arms, they fall off by accident.

Fender and Jax laughed "Sorry."

After pomni and Garifeld finished they looked at each other in the eyes and panted.

Meanwhile in the sky, the Wonderbot was carrying Tim out of town.

Tim said "I was on the list! Don't you know who I am? Wait! Whoa!"

The Wonderbot kicks him out and as the iris closes on it, the bot winks to the audience then closes to black. Roll credits.
