The seventh best robot musical group in the world – well, they were fifth, but it went to their heads – are making a NEW musical. It’s going to be performed to robots everywhere and it’s going to explain what Humans are. Everything will be fine; they just need some answers.

Meanwhile, 10-year-old Jennifer Dempsey – MASSIVE robot fan – is on a mission of her own, one that might just change the course of robot-human relations forever!

This is a big-hearted – and funny! – story about loss, friendship and hope featuring three humanoid robots, one quite robotic human and a bunch of catchy original songs.
