Missed Manners
Milo is more than happy to get away from his gaseous cat, Dishrag, to help teach Sanjay proper manners in time for the latter's big family outing to a fancy restaurant.
Tropes in this episode:
- Big "NO!": Happens to Lizbeth just when the laser from Sanjay's feast stuffer is pointing at her stuffed elephant Chester, which she then tries to get the machine off of him to prevent the machine from taking and ripping it.
- Bookends: To try to find a place in the house to hide in order to avoid Dishrag from continuously gassing, Milo knocks at the bathroom door to get his dad out from the bathroom as he didn't get out for 3 days due to him struggling with constipation as a result of eating too much cheese. At the end, he is still using the bathroom even after the events of the episode, still struggling with constipation from the cheese.
- Didn't Think This Through:
- To help Sanjay teach his proper manners before he goes out for dinner with his family, Milo gives him a feast stuffer containing all of the utilities used for eat, since all he needs to do is to focus the laser from his laser-pointed glasses to the food he wants to eat, so that the machine can feed it for him. Although the plan originally worked, he then points the laser to the instruction manual as he was meant to get it to read while he eats, which instead, the machine rips the manual in half and stuff it to his face. He then points the laser to Lizbeth's stuffed elephant Chester, which she thankfully saves before the machine takes it, leading her to try to get the machine out of his face by throwing it out to the ground, which then explodes, making this plan backfire.
- Milo then gives Sanjay his blinders so that he won't get distracted at the table and to keep him focused. Unfortunately, the blinders made a loud sound which was revealed to be a couple of ants crawling in the grass with a popsicle that he dropped, hurting Sanjay's ears since he must've focused down on his hearing due to him cutting down his vision with the blinders, making the sound of the ants louder than they are.
- Milo then gives him his rear-view mirror glasses so that when he starts eating his dish, he will look at his rear-view mirror and watch him copy exactly everything that he does in order to have good manners while eating, leading to Milo to hide in a bush. Although it originally worked as well, Milo accidentally cuts a piece of a beehive when he meant to use his knife to cut Sanjay's food to eat, causing bees to start attacking him. As a result of him having to copy everything that Milo does, Sanjay starts spitting out his food (at the same time Milo spits out a piece of a beehive) and kicks at the table (at the same time Milo was trying to kick the bees off of him), causing him to become not well-mannered while eating.
- "Eureka!" Moment: Lizbeth suggests to Milo that if Sanjay doesn't eat his dinner by being full, he won't get easily distracted or screw up, which led to an idea from Milo's "Bird Brain". However, his idea was much different from what Lizbeth was thinking. He decided to bring Dishrag to the fancy restaurant in order to feed her bean burritos to make her gas problem worse, which after she starts gassing up the restaurant, it led to everyone but Sanjay's family fleeing off the building, leading them to gobble up their food without proper manners as if the restaurant's empty, nobody cares how bad your manners are. Milo then decides to feed Dishrag an entire box of cheese which took care of her gas problem, which he got that idea from his dad.
- Gasshole / Gross-Out Show: Dishrag stinks up around the house as a result of her bad gas problem. She also stinks up the fancy restaurant later in the episode after eating a lot of bean burritos, making her gas problem even worse than before.
- I've Heard of That — What Is It?: Since Sanjay lost his manners and has to find his proper manners before he goes out with his family for dinner at a fancy restaurant, Lizbeth asks Milo and Sanjay what exactly are manners. They then try to start explaining what it means, but they replied that they have no idea what they are.Lizbeth: Do you even know what manners are?Milo: It's like a...Sanjay: Oh, well, yeah, it's about like this big and kind of a bit...Milo and Sanjay: Oh, we have no idea.Lizbeth: It's like being polite. Like you know, not eating your soup with your fingers?
- Scary Stinging Swarm: While demonstrating Sanjay to copy exactly whatever he does with the rear-view mirror glasses that he gave to him in order to teach him good manners at the table while eating, Milo accidentally cuts a piece of a beehive with a knife which he was meant to pretend using the knife to cut a piece of food, causing him to get chased by bees and gets badly stung. Due to him telling Sanjay to copy whatever he does with the rear-view mirror, he starts spitting out his food and kicks at the table, causing to become not well-mannered while eating.
- Too Hungry to Be Polite: After Dishrag's stinky gassing from eating a lot of bean burritos caused everyone at the fancy restaurant to flee off, Sanjay and his family starts to gobble up their food without proper manners as if the restaurant's empty, nobody cares how bad your manners are.
Domo Ari Otto, Mr. Robotto
It's not a good day for Milo and technology. First, he spills grape juice on his mom's computer, frying it. Now he must help Otto battle his out-of-control robot.
Tropes in this episode:
- Big "NO!": Happens to Milo after accidentally spilling his grape juice on his mom's computer, causing it to get fried.
- Didn't Think This Through:
- To stop Otto's Robotto bot from going haywire, Milo uses a transforming robot toy which could transform into something that could be powerful. Turns out, it wasn't powerful at all as the toy transforms into a sandwich cookie, which the Robotto robot then eats it.
- Milo then uses his bulk blaster to shoot out something to stop Otto's Robotto bot from causing a big mess in his room. Turns out, the blaster only shoots out bubbles and nothing else which isn't powerful enough to battle the robot either.
- As Otto programed his Robotto robot with superintelligence so it combat with any attempts to destroy it which led to the robot going haywire, Milo uses a remote control in order to unprogram the robot. He tries pushing different buttons on the remote to find the correct code, but none of the codes work as the buttons affected the rest of the neighborhood rather than finding a code to unprogram the robot, not to mention, the batteries for the remote are dead.
- Downer Ending: Played for Laughs. Milo gives Otto a favor to fix up his mom's computer that he fried after spilling his grape juice on it. Milo then lets her mother use it again in order to pay her bills, but it turns out, Otto made the computer evil and starts trying to attack Milo's mother, as he couldn't help himself making things evil with electronics like with his robot earlier.
- "Eureka!" Moment: Milo has an idea from his "Bird Brain" as electronic toys will only run with batteries which includes the robot, so removing them will cut off the power of Otto's robot. He then decides to call the power company to cut off all of the power in Halverston and Area due to "killer robots" on the loose, which was not what Lizbeth was thinking of. The power company eventually does cut out all of the power at the neighborhood. Although the plan seemed to backfire as although the power was cut, the robot is still operating, Otto's mom has to check for batteries for a flashlight so she decided to take off the batteries from Otto's robot, causing it to stop and power off, leading to his plan actually working.
- Instantly Proven Wrong: During the news report regarding "killer robots" are on the loose at Halverston and Area, the news reporter mentions that everything will be fine as Gorgon mentions that there's no reason to panic as they may or may not have killer tendencies. Just a few seconds later, Gorgon then eats the news reporter, which led to the town to start panicking.
- Oh, Crap!: Although he was meant to install the Quantum Vigilante software that he got from the comic book store to the computer, he accidentally spills his grape juice on the computer, causing it to get fried.
- Pop-Culture Pun Episode Title: The title of the episode is a pun of the lyric "Domo arigato, Mr. Roboto" from the Styx song "Mr. Roboto".
