When Pete's friends don't want to play the same games as he does, Pete has a great idea—he'll build a robot that's just like him!

But when Robo-Pete gets a little out of control, Pete realizes the best thing about his friends is that no matter what they like to play, it's always fun when they're all together.

Pete wants a buddy who loves baseball—and Robo-Pete promises to do everything together. Playing catch starts out fun, but the robot throws the ball farther and farther until Pete needs a time out. Hide-and-seek is no match for a homing device, and practicing guitar gets way too loud.

Before Pete can catch his breath, Robo-Pete's feet transform into a motorized skateboard with super speedy wheels. Pete dashes after his runaway creation.
