-> Even the greener grass has weeds.
Abe Thayer is a security guard and mechanic for the Pizzaplex, but unlike the state-of-the-art entertainment facility, his life is anything but fancy. Spending all of his money to take care of his dementia-ridden mother, Abe is practically homless, living in a tire hut in Roxy Raceway and eating out of dumpsters. Finally, he gets a coveted promotion at work, one that will allow him to move into the Fazplex Tower with the other higher-ups... only there's no apartments available. Well, there's ''one,'' but nobody's allowed inside of it. Desperate, Abe breaks into the apartment and meets the helpful Bobbiedot assistants, who are all too eager to make his new life as comfortable as possible. So long as he doesn't look in the attic.
"Bobbiedots" is the first story in the ''[[Literature/FiveNightsAtFreddysFazbearFrights Tales from the Pizzaplex]]'' books (as well as its predecessor, ''[[Literature/FiveNightsAtFreddysFazbearFrights Fazbear Frights]]'') to be split into two parts across two separate books. The first half, "Bobbiedots, Part 1" is the twelfth story, and the last of the fourth book, "Submechanophobia." The second half, "Bobbiedots, Part 2," was continued as the fifteenth story, and the last of the fifth book, "The Bobbiedots Conclusion."
