Everybody in town loves Cyrus, even though he’s a robot—everybody except Shawn Cole’s dad, who thinks Cyrus is a nuisance. When police officers visit the Cole house because of Cyrus, it’s the last straw. Mr. Cole says that Cyrus has to act like a normal kid for a whole week, or he’ll be sent back to the lab. So, Shawn and his robot brother come up with a plan to make Shawn’s dad see just how great Cyrus really is. Will Cyrus and Mr. Cole finally develop a better relationship, or will Cyrus have to return to the lab?
