Robbie is bothered when the rest of the family does not care about the environment as much as he does, but is really annoyed with Earl over it. When complaining that all Earl cares about is watching television, Earl defends it by saying that television can leave an important message. Meanwhile, Wesayso gets listed in the newspaper as one of the top most wasteful companies, and Mr. Richfield wants Earl to bury waste in his backyard. That's when Earl gets intimidated by an alien, who is actually a robot built by Robbie to scare him into caring for the Earth. While it works in making Earl care for the environment, Robbie did not mean for it to make Earl quit his job.
