Roberts Robots Cast

Plummer’s attempt to break into Robert’s safe results in him and Marken getting blown up by Katie; Robert is furious, and threatens to report the spies to the police unless they take their new jobs as security guards seriously. Later, Robert reveals his latest money-making venture: opening a restaurant. Unfortunately the sight of human food causes all the robots to suffer from electronic nausea, and they immediately collapse; undaunted, Robert appoints Eric as head waiter and instructs him to train his fellow automatons to handle food without being sick. Opening day comes two days later: but with the robot waiters still feeling sick at even the mere mention of what’s on the menu, Robert’s restaurant is doomed to be a recipe for disaster...
