    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      In the chase sequence, while Big Weld is rebooting, he briefly sings the song "Daisy Bell," also known as "A Bicycle Built For Two". This was the first song ever voiced by a computer, when in 1961, IBM programmed their 704 computer to sing it, to demonstrate their voice synthesis system. This is also the song sung in 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968) by the Hal-9000 computer.
    • Goofs
      When Wonder-Bot puts the second group of dishes into Rodney's father, they are facing to the right. When he takes them out, they are facing to the left.
    • Quotes
      • Fender: You consider me a friend?
      • Rodney Copperbottom: Sure. What else would I consider you?
      • Fender: I don't know. An embarrassment? A way to rebel against your parents? A desperate cry for help? The list is endless.
    • Crazy credits
      Production babies are listed as "Blue Sky Babies Assembled During Production."
    • Alternate versions
      The German dub features the song played in the end credits "From Zero To Hero" by Sarah Connor who also voiced Cappy in that dub.
