Little Sister, Big Brother
Having slept in, Olie is frantically trying to get off to school on time. However not only is everything going wrong, every time he turns around he finds his little sister Zowie underfoot.

Pretending to be his TV hero Space Boy, Olie tries to get Spot to do wonderful tricks like Space Boy’s dog does on TV. However the more Olie tries, the more Spot stays Spot, doing what he does best, licking Olie’s face, wagging his tail and biting his butt. As disappointed as Olie gets, ultimately with a little help from Dad, Olie realizes that it’s Spot’s undying friendship that makes his four-legged friend special.
The time has come for Mom and Dad to again face their most challenging mission – getting a reluctant Olie and Zowie into bed. From ‘Chase the Baby’ to ‘No One’s In the Tub’, it’s fun and games all the way – at least for Olie and Zowie. Ultimately, with their mission accomplished and the kids finally ready for story time, it’s an exhausted Mom and Dad who end up falling asleep.
When Olie and Zowie decide to make Mom and Dad a surprise breakfast, they start out with a simple plate of cinnamon toast and end up mixing together everything grown-ups like from pickles to ice cream into one big bowl of ‘Breakfast Soup’.

Fortunately Spot missed the plate of cinnamon toast which Mom and Dad happily share with the kids, for a breakfast that could not be beat!
Desperately wanting a pet of her own, Zowie brings a big rock into the house and makes it her ‘imaginary pet’. She treats it just like it’s a real pet and her attachment grows and grows.

As Olie’s contending with his very first loose tooth, Pappy’s false teeth escape and start chasing Spot around the house. Donning the guise of ‘Space Boy’, Olie sets out on an imaginary Intergalactic Quest to trap the truant teeth and return them back to ‘Space Emperor’ Pappy.
With his doggy bed in the wash, Spot sets out to find another place to take a well-needed nap. However it’s cleaning day and no matter where Spot settles, something’s there to disturb him. He relocates a hundred times, and still no nap. He finally finds a sanctuary in Mom’s bowling ball bag, falling asleep and setting the stage for a big surprise at the bowling tournament.
Not wanting Zowie to intrude on their plans to stay up late and watch monster movies on TV, Olie and Billy try various ways to scare her off. However it ends up being little Zowie who scares the big boys, Olie and Bily, earning their approval to stay up and watch the scary movies with them.
When Olie and Zowie bring home a new pet fish, Spot tries everything in his power to compete for their attention. Unfortunately the kids are too preoccupied with the fish and, feeling he’s no longer wanted, Spot leaves home. Too late, Olie and Zowie realize what has happened and fear they’ve lost their beloved Spot for good. After a quick search, they find Spot moping in the backyard and almost smother him with attention and affection, reaffirming to one and all that Spot is the Top Dog.

A Birthday Present For Mom
Olie and Zowie realize they do not have enough money to buy Mom a present for her birthday. They decide to open a lemonade stand to earn more washers and lugnuts. Sales are not very good.

With some help from Pappy and his movie camera they have their own show – breaking records in events like bubble blowing, with some suprising results for an unsuspecting Spot!
Where O Where Did Olie Go?
It’s lousy being small. That’s how Olie feels when Dad tells him that he’s too little to use his tools on the Magnotron. An accident with the space splorer changes all that. Olie is ‘shrunk-ed’ down to one inch and soon finds out what it’s like to really be small.
It seems that tightening the expando-compresso-expresso valve on the Magnotron wasn’t such a good idea. A giant sized Spot is not as much fun as you’d think.
Dad and Olie ignore Mom’s teasing about not growing up and playing with the Magnotron. Unfortunately, their ‘playing’ accidentally get them ‘shrunk-ed’. To get out of this mess Dad suggests thinking little – like a kid. Seems to work in this situation!

He seems to be doing the trick, until Spot trips him up. The disappointed bots return to the house. It’s then everything gets real spooky. They’re attacked by a Pumpkin Head! And who’s behind this spookiness? Why, Zowie and Binky, of course.
Zowie Queen Of The Pumpkins

Her dream introduces her to Spookie Ookie and the real reason he tries to steal the bot’s super remote every year. When her peril is at it’s highest, Big Brother-bot Olie comes to Zowie’s rescue. Zowie wakes from her dream and tells Olie of her adventure. Olie thinks it’s a good spooky and falls asleep. It was just a dream…or was it?
It’s Gooey Hearts Day in Pollieville and the ‘Looove Bug’ is out to get Olie and Billy. Only problem is they think girls are yucky. That is until they meet their new neighbour, Pollie Pi. You’ve never seen two bots act so goofy as they try to out do each other for Pollie’s attention…sometimes forgetting completely that Pollie is even there!
Seven Minutes and Counting
It’s the day of the big game and nothing seems to be in the right place at the right time. Mom has seven minutes to get the gang together, with all of their gear, and find the keys to Coupy. Seems impossible? Not for Mom.

Even Olie is getting into it, until he sees the new suit that Mom’s pick out. Olie is afraid that Billy and Pollie are going to laugh at his ‘geeky’ look…until he sees what they have to wear. It seems the suit doesn’t make the bot.

While assembling Snowie, the family’s favorite holiday yard ornament, Dad’s tales of real snow in Polieville when he was a little bot make Olie and Zowie very wistful.

Space Boy Olie and his trusted side-kick Space Dog Spot are out looking for Polie-folk to rescue, leaving Zowie all alone. She knows she’s a “soupy hero”! Watch as she ‘saves’ Dad, Mom and Planet Polie! But it’s Space Boy Olie who really needs rescue-ing, and has to call on Soupy Zowie, admitting she too can be a “Soupy Hero”.
A place for everything and everything in it’s place. At least that’s the way it should be, but it becomes apparent that the Polie’s have collected too much stuff when Coupy won’t fit in the garage. Mom’s idea of a garage sale is a good one, until they try and sort out what’s a keeper and what’s to be sold.
Dinner’s done and it’s time for chores. Olie’s job is to clean the kitchen and Billy decides to help so that they can finish faster and get back to their Boinky Ball game. What they think are chores, Zowie thinks if fun. Mom and Dad seem to agree.
Spot is looking for some-bot to play a little game of fetch, but everyone seems too busy. The Bevel’s cat Dicey happens to fall into the middle of Spot’s romp with Bally. While Spot persists in trying to get Dicey to play, Dicey manages to tease and taunt Spot. Theirs is a like/dislike relationship. New best-friends are born.
Square Plane In A Round Hole
Billy’s been saving up his chore money and bought a nifty new bi-plane. It’s the keenest plane Olie has every seen. It makes square corners! Olie borrows the plane from Billy with the promise that he’ll be extra careful. However, accidents do happen, and no matter how hard Olie and Dad try to fix it, they keep coming up with a round plane. Now Olie has to tell his best friend that he broke his favorite toy.
AAAAACHOOO! Housey has the sneezies and he’s a little green around the gables and wonky under the windows. It’s time for some Polie-style sprucing up, some tender lovin’ care that’ll make Housey feel better. Zowie makes a get-well card, Mom starts in the kitchen, Dad and Olie tighten, torque and test every bolt in the house. Nothing seems to work, it’s almost as if a wild hair has gotten stuck up Housey’s nose…or spout. Has anyone seen the Bevel’s cat, Dicey?
Olie and Billy are intent on building the “biggest, most humongous fanciest card house in the whole universe”. It’s big kid stuff. Zowie and Binky find this process boring. However, they do find chasing a leaf a whole lotta fun. Even though they do continuously knock down the card house. Who do you think is having more fun?
Round and Round and Square We Go
The Bevel’s are having a Bongo-a-go-go Barbecue and the Polies are invited. Each family tries to be neighbourly by trying to contribute what they feel the other family would enjoy. But Polies can’t be square and Bevels can’t be round. As it turns out trying something different can be fun!
Billy is upset because he just can’t seem to get the hang of playing any of the games Olie wants to show him. Paddle-hoop-ball is just too tough! His square marbles just don’t roll the way Olie’s round ones do. Just then Uncle Gizmo arrives ready to “give them the biz”! Giz and the boys play all kinds of fun games, Billy joining in with a little help from Uncle Gizmo and his “Good Luck Confidence Gear”.
Olie’s baby bot tooth is determined to stay put. It’s wobbly, but it’s still stuck pretty good. A Billy Bevel Ballistic Boinky Ball Bouncer manages to bonk Olie on the head and knock out his tooth. The boys plan to take this opportunity to be the first bots ever to see the Tooth Fairy. That night they set their trap. Will the boys wish come true…or will the Tooth Fairy be elusive as ever?
Billy’s admiring his extra special brick collection, Olie’s gazing over his favorite marbles. Mom’s buffin’ her bowling balls and Dad’s reminiscing about all of his wrenches…each one’s got a story behind it. Everyone has a collection of their very special things. Even Spot has a collection, his bones. Well, everyone except Zowie. She’d like a collection, too. Ladybugs! But as Olie explains, it’s pretty hard to collect Ladybugs. You’ve got to collect something you love that you can keep all together in one place. Later, Zowie assembles the whole Polie family in the livingroom to show off her new collection – THEM!
Olie’s bored, Dad’s bored, Spot’s bored…even Uncle Giz is bored. His pompadour doesn’t even have it’s usual sproing! They all want, well, something different to do. But nobody knows what that is. Well, Zowie’s not letting this day go to the dogs, she’s going to become a dog. That’s something different, isn’t it? Soon Dad, Uncle Giz and Olie join in and all are having the time of their doggy lives.
Olie and Billy are too pooped from playing to clean up their mess of toys. While Billy wishes he could use his brain power to get it all tidied up Olie heads home for dinner, but before he can get there Dad accidentally zaps him with the Magnotron. It’s supposed to be set to ‘redecorator mode’ to change the colour of things, but now it just makes them invisible. An invisible Spot chases after a frightened Dicey, and Olie chases after him…right into the Bevel’s backyard where Billy is ‘practicing’ using his brainpower. Olie uses this opportunity to have a little fun with his best friend. Maybe Billy should be careful what he wishes for.
The latest news is that a Baby star has lost his mother and father and is falling straight towards Polieville. The Polie’s all gather around the telescope to see if they can catch a glimpse of Starry. It turns out that Starry is just an itty bitty little guy. But falling stars are supposed to be lucky and Zowie makes a wish. Zowie’s wish comes true the next morning as Baby Starry crash lands in the Polie front yard. He’s scared and sad, but Zowie will take care of him. Mom and Dad realize he needs to get home and Olie is the one to come up with the best solution.
Since they have to baby sit Binky, Billy and Olie are determined to teach him to speak. They try some very simple words, using pictures as guides. Nope, nothing doing. No mater how many times they repeat a word, Binky replies in Baby Talk. Maybe they’ll have to learn Binky Speak. They are going to discover a whole new language!
Spot in love? Well, it does seem that the Polie family pooch has met his match in Pollie Pi’s dog Fifi. Fifi is a lovely, delicate pup and she inspires Spot to really change his ways. He’s never been so clean, so kind to Dicey, so…unlike the Spot we all know and love! Once Spot stops to really pay attention he realizes that Fifi is a lot less delicate and sweet than he had first imagined. Look out Dicey!
Anyone can whistle. Anyone, that its, except Zowie. No matter how hard she tries all she can manage are puffs of air and little flubbers. Pappy tell’s her that it’s practicin’ that will get her whistling. Zowie promises to keep practicing. Late that night the house is awakened by an ear-splitting noise. Could it be? Yes! Zowie can whistle! Now if only we can get her to turn down the volume.
Olie’s got to do a school project on bots who come to Polieville from another place. He is at a loss until Mom suggests he take a closer look at his best friend and neighbour Billy Bevel.

1 Olie, 2 Olie, 3 Olie, 4
Life’s tough for a little bot when there are too many chores and too much homework to do! At this rate Olie will never get to watch ‘Space Boy’. With some help from a nosey Spot and Dad’s multiplicatorator Olie learns a math lesson that he won’t soon forget!
Life looks like so much fun in the Bevel’s backyard. Baxter is working on building his very own square boxing ring and Bonita is practicing her yoga-a-go-go. Olie and Dad wonder what life would be like if they were square instead of round. When Dad comments that “You can’t know a persons true shape until you’ve walked around in their shoes” Olie and Billy get a shape switching idea! All kinds of fun ensues…of the square and round variety!
It is the hottest day ever in Polieville! Eggs and bacon are actually frying on the sidewalk! Everyone is so hot they don’t know what to do. That is until Dad proclaims ‘If ya wanta be cool, ya gotta think cool!’ With a little creativity and hard work the Polie yard is turned into a veritable winter wonderland. Why, they’re all thinking so cool they’ve forgotten all about the heat.
Grown ups can be so weird. Olie and Pollie just can’t figure out why his Mom and Dad have so much fun working in the garden. Chores aren’t fun! Mom and Dad explain how satisfying it is to care for something and watch it grow. Olie and Pollie get to try this theory out for themselves when they encounter some very special buggies in the garden.
Davey Sprocket knows more about the wilderness than anybot! Olie and Pollie know this for sure, they watch his show on Telly every chance they get. But Dad has other ideas…he was quite the camper in his day, and he’s ready to show the young bots the ropes. It’s not as easy as he had first thought though, all kinds of mishaps occur. Not the least of which is Tenty getting the hiccups! Will they get any sleep at all?
It’s Saturday! Olie’s got all kinds of fun stuff planned, that is until Mom reminds him that it’s also toy tidy day. If he wants to have some Rolie Polie Ice Cream with his lunch and play with Billy in the afternoon he’s going to have to take some desperate measures! With some help from the rewindalator and his folks Olie realizes that it’s always the best idea to do a job right the first time.

As much as the boys want to spend the afternoon doing big bot stuff, they just can’t get rid of Zowie. She wants to play too! Eventually the only game the boys do play is ‘who can impress Zo more?’ Is Olie in danger of being replaced as the most special bot in his sister’s eyes?
Zowie wants to know why. Why sky makes noise? Why wind puff? Why door close? Why cookies yummy? Why Spot woof? Why? Why? Why?!?! The Polie family does manage to come up with some interesting answers to Zo’s interagation, including how Spot got his name…and why the ‘sandyman’ comes!
Uncle Giz has come to visit Olie and Zowie only to find that they’d rather watch a movie on Telly than play with him. It’s just got to the good part…the bot in the movie just got amnesia! Giz is crushed. Has he lost his magic? Well, when he knocks his noggin and convinces Olie and Zowie that he has amnesia they try to help him remember what a great guy is his. Remember, follow the Giz. He’s where the action is!
The kids have to read “1001 Gearabian Nights” for homework. The whoooole book!

There’s only one Telly in the Polie household and Olie and Zowie are at odds over who gets to watch their favourite show. Will Olie get to watch Space Boy or will Zowie get to watch the Cowbot show? Uncle Giz says they should flip a coin to decide…and Zowie wins. It takes a little time and little convincing but Olie realizes that playing Cowbot is almost as much fun as playing Space Boy, especially if it means spending time with Zowie!
Ever wonder where everyone on the Rolie Polie Planet comes from? Well then, get ready for “Zowie, Billy, Pollie and Olie Present The History of the Rolie Polie Planet!” The young bots act their way through a very interesting (and entertaining) history lesson for the grown-ups.
If Billy and Olie think they’re the first bots to play ‘Space Boy’ and ‘Cosmic Cube’. Dad and Mr. Bevel are here to set them straight! The two Space Dads are whirring and flying all over Housey creating all kinds of mayhem. What started out as an attempt to teach their sons how to play fair has turned into an all out competition. It seems some bots never grow up. May the best Space Dad win!
The Polie’s have the ‘grey blahs’…but not for long! Comet Sillius is on its way, spilling silly dust everywhere, bringing ‘Silly Willy Day’! The bestest, brightest, blue skyest day of the whole year, when everyone and everything acts their super-silliest! Get ready to laugh the grey away and feel good all over!
Billy and Olie are up to no good. There’s a rash of practical jokes being played around the Bevel and Polie households and no bot is being spared! But these pranksters better watch there step, cause Mom, Dad and Zowie are getting ready to get them back…when they least expect it!
A big dose of spring fever has it Polieville. Now that spring is officially here, everyone is getting ready for the greatly anticipated arrival of the Springy Chicken who comes to Polieville every year and chooses the nicest yard to lay her egg in. Whoever she chooses is sure to have good luck all year long! The preparations are underway…who’s yard will it be this year?
Now that the Springy Chicken has decided to lay her egg in the Polie back yard it’s up to them to make sure the egg is cared for and safe until it’s Mommy comes back for it. Everyone pitches in and the team effort means a couple of happy chickens and some really lucky bots!
Detective Polie's Cookie Caper
Olie and Zowie are in full hard-boiled detective mode after listening to a mystery show on the radio. Pretty soon a real mystery occurs in the Polie household. Who ate all of Mom’s fresh baked cookies? There’s nothing that’ll stop these two fearless P.I.’s from getting the answer to that burning question…and from getting the big cookie payoff!
Brussel sprouts are the yuckiest! But if Olie wants to have dessert and watch Space Boy he’s gotta eat every last one on his plate. After lots of scheming and trouble Olie learns what Mom and Dad said was right, little lies can grow into super duper giant humongous lies. It’s always better to tell the truth.
It's a raucous Friday night at the Polie's, Pappy's watching the kids. A wild game of charades ensuses...it looks like bed time might never come! He does eventually tire the little bots out though, and as they drift of to dream land they know they have the funnest Pappy around!
Life can be pretty frustrating for a little bot, especially when she can't do all the cool stuff her big brother can do. Zowie's spirits are lifted though when Dad and Uncle Gizmo share some stories from their youth. Everyone was little sometime!
Scruba-dub-dubby-A Spot In The Tubby
Tomorrow is "bring your pet to the park day" and Olie decides he'd better give Spot a bath first. This is however, a task that is easier said then done, Spot will have none of it! After taking a number of different approaches, the Polie's learn that ‘to catch a dog, you have to think like a dog'!
Binky and Zowie are playing a game of hide and go seek. It seems like Zowie is never going to get found though, since Binky is distracted at every turn by the wonders of the Polie household!
Lately, Dad's got golf on the brain. He's mini putt putt obsessed. After tons of practice and anticipation his game is cancelled...but the kids help cheer him and teach him a thing or two about mini putt putt in the process.
Soupy Zowie And The Bogey Bot
Zowie is afraid of the dark. But with a little courage and some Space Boy advice from Olie, she'll overcome the big bad Bogey Bot!
Mom's been away at a bowling tournament. When she arrives home victorious to her adoring family, Olie has decided (not without some input from Billy) that he's too big for all of that huggy stuff. He's not a little bot anymore, hugs are for babies. After a couple of days and some serious thought Olie realizes that "Big or small, square or round...everyone needs huggin' every once in a while!"
Billy's looking for Olie; they were supposed to play Boinky Ball today. But he seems to have disappeared into thin air. Billy can only find Zowie. And she's acting like a little kid, all excited about her new pretend friend. He makes pictures, plays catch, and even makes her fly. Still, Billy figures playing ball with Zowie is better than not playing at all. What he can't figure out is how she got so good - all of a sudden she's dribbling, zipping through the air, slam dunking. Say, this pretend friend wouldn't have anything to do with Olie missing and Dad tinkering with the invisibilator on the Magnotron would it?
Daddy's got the sneezies - he's got to stay in bed and get better. And Zowie gets to look after him. Daddy's not exactly the ideal patient though. He keeps sneaking out of bed, wanting to do his chores. And he'd probably get away with it, if only his sneezes didn't give him away. Zowie's got to make Daddy stay in bed. Good thing she can count on her toy buddies to help her. And when Daddy remembers the Galaxy Mini Pudd Pudd Tournament on Tele, he's finally content to settle down.
C'mon everybody! Let's do the Twirl! It's the exciting new dance craze from that groovy new singer Chunk Squary. Everyone is caught up in the craze. Pretty soon things get really exciting, thanks to Uncle Gizmo!
A planet made completely out of ice cream has been discovered. And Dad is taking Olie and Zowie there for a yummy fun day! There's ice cream everywhere and every flavor you could ever want. Rainbow sprinkles drop from the sky, the trees are ice cream cones and the puddles are chocolate sauce. Still, a day on the ice cream planet can be pretty tiring and the Polies head home. But they make sure to bring back some ice cream for Billy and Mom.
Uncle Giz's pomp is a little down, and so is he. It just won't stand up straight anymore. Space Rangers to the rescue! Billy and Olie try everything to get Giz's hair back to its old style again, but nothing works. But don't give up until Bonita Bevel has tried. After all, she must know something with a cube of hair like that.
Mom and Dad are remembering that special day when they first met, their anniversary. And the cruise they took for their honeymoon. When Olie hears them talk about taking a cruise next year for their anniversary, he gets an idea. What could be better than a pleasure cruise aboard Pappy's boat right now? Complete with dancing, shuffleboard, swimming and a wild animal safari. Mom and Dad are sure never to forget this anniversary.
Billie and Olie think dollies are no fun, but Zowie and Pollie know better. They head to the park to play dollies. Astro-dollies are soon floating through the sky. And now that the stroller is a flying machine, the dollies are headed higher, right for the backyard. Uh-oh, they're stuck in the tree. They must be saved! With Billie and Olie helping the rescue mission, they soon get the dollies down. This is the most excitement they've had all day. Maybe playing with dollies is fun after all.
Zowie has learned a new word, "dingliedangliedoodle". But little kids aren't supposed to say that word. In fact, no one in the Polie house is allowed to use it. It's not exactly a nice word. Now where could she have learned it? Apparently Daddy let it slip in a moment of weakness. Guess he better be more careful about what he says cause you never know who might repeat it.
Gizmo's gonna stay with Olie and Zowie while Mom and Dad are off to do some serious dancing at the Rolie Rhumba-thon. With their new slide-under swirl, they're hoping for first place. Zowie and Olie try some of this serious dancing themselves. But Gizmo's got different ideas of what dancing is all about and shows them tippy-toe dancing, the funky chicken-bot and the knee-knockin' wobble-WHOOAA. Whee! This is fun. And when Mom and Dad come home with only a fourth place, they realize that's what they forgot. To have fun!
Olie has to wash Coupey before he can play with Billy. Betcha he could wash Coupey twice as fast if he used more soap. Billy pours the whole box into the bucket. Whoa! It blows a giant bubble which captures Olie and Zowie. Wheee, off they go into the sky. They keep floating up and up and up. This isn't much fun anymore. Better hope Billy thinks of something fast and gets them down.
Olie, Billy and Zowie are watching Space Boy. There's big trouble out in space. The comet Hotsi-Totsi is headed straight for Planet Chillsville and will melt everything. Space Boy is on it! But the comet is too hot to touch. How to stop it? The announcer asks for help from all the space bots in Teleland. Leave it to Olie to come up with something brilliant. He calls in with his Supersonic Flame Resistant Gloves and saves the day.
Zowie gets to be a big girl and keep an eye on Binky. Not so easy when all Binky wants to do is play with the stuff he's not supposed too. First Tele, then Vicki, then the flashlight and Flushy. Ooops, there goes the flashlight, right in Flushy's bowl. Finally Zowie gets him to sit still. But then Binky finds his belly button and goes gyroscopic. He pushes his belly button and his head just won't stop spinning. Looks like it's about time Zowie called Mom for help.
Olie wants to keep on playing boinky ball so he can keep on winning. But Billy's tired of losing. No more games for him. Dad reminds Olie that everyone likes to win at least sometimes. Olie figures he can make his friend feel a whole lot better by letting him win at whirl ‘n' wicket. But that's no fun either. Playing fair and square is really the only way. And if you don't play the same game all the time, everybody gets a chance to win.
Zowie and Olie are almost finished with their puzzle. Now if they could just find the last piece. After all, it couldn't have just got up and walked away. But there it goes, out the door. Olie and Zowie are hard at work being detectives, hot on the trail of the missing puzzle piece. But it's just too fast for them. Fortunately Spot is on the trail too and a little more sly than Olie and Zowie.
Olie and Billie are tied up- practicing for the Gearboree this weekend. They just haven't quite gotten their knot-tying skills down pat yet. But Robo-Ranger leader Dad is going to make sure the boys are prepared for the competition. The boys learn to set up a tent, carry the packs, mark their trail, sound birdcalls. What an exhausting day! But with preparation like that, they're sure to win a medal at the Gearboree.
Uh-oh! Olie left his toys out in the rain. He was too busy watching Space Boy conquer the Rust Monster. But now the Rust Monster has attacked Olie's toys. Olie puts in an emergency call to Space Boy. He needs help! Space Boy arrives on the scene, armed with his Rust Detector. And just in time. The Rust Monster has already attacked the lawn polisher. Will Olie and Space Boy catch this monster before he does any more damage?
Being Mom is a tough job, no wonder she's all wound up. Her relax-alator gear is on the fritz. And Dad won't be home till later. Olie and Zowie know how get back to loosey goosey. But none of the usual stuff seems to work. Mini Putt Putt, swinging, sliding, jumping on the Sproinger. Mom just gets double wound up. And Bonita's yoga-a-go-go isn't doing the trick either. Olie and Zowie better come up with something soon.
Billy and Olie don't want to let Pollie and Zowie drive their new soapbox racer, "Silver Speeder". Girls don't drive racers, and they sure don't build them. Unless you've got Big Bad Bonita Bevel, the best soapbox mechanic and driver on the Square Planet on your team. Pollie and Zowie are gonna have the best racer. They challenge the boys to a race. But now the boys are getting a little worried about their competition. So they add a few gizmos to the Silver Speeder. Who will win the race?
Treasure Of The Rolie Polie Madre
Olie and Billy are playing pirates, and with Dad's metal detector, they've rounded up a whole bunch of treasure in the backyard. Two whole tin cans full! But when they each run home for a sec, the treasure mysteriously disappears. Billy and Olie blame each other for taking it and go on the hunt for the treasure. When they find Zowie with the it, they realize that they're good enough friends to trust each other.
Uh-oh, Olie has lost his favorite toy. Asteroidbot may not be able to move or anything, but he's extra special cause he belonged to Dad when Dad was just kneehigh to a jackhammer. Now what? Olie, Billy, Dad and Spot look everywhere, but they just can't find him. Looks like he's disappeared without a trace. But it's a good thing Spot doesn't give up as easily as the rest of the bots.
Zowie has found a forlorn little flower in the backyard who is desperately in need of some tender loving care. Zowie takes every care and precaution - waters it, places it in the sunlight, makes sure Dicey and Spot aren't making noise, prevents Olie from playing Boinky Ball. She even erects a barricade around the flower. She doesn't want anything to happen to it. It's just that the flower doesn't seem too happy now. All he wants is to be part of the family.
It's eclipse-o-rama day! The moon comes between the sun and Planet Polie and turns the day into night. Which means Pappy, Zowie and Olie get to do all sorts of fun nighttime stuff during the day. Like camping out, playing flashlight tag in the park and investigating what the buddies do at night. But best of all, eating Rolios when you wake up- even if it's the middle of the day.
Zowie's all ready. She's had enough of riding her tricycle, she's determined to ride a big bike just like Olie. But first, Pappy's gonna give her some tips; after all, he learned to ride when there was only one wheel. Uncle Giz has some balance and kicking exercises. And Mom dresses Zowie with all the padding she might ever need. (Never mind that Zowie can hardly move). But all this isn't really helping. Zowie just wants to ride the bike! And as everyone is about to find out, a little determination goes a long way.
It's time for Winkyball! Only trouble is, Olie is in a slump and doesn't want Mom and Dad to see him wink out yet again. It is up to Pappy to inspire Olie to play with a story of Dad's childhood winkyball slump that ended in a homewink!
Telly wants more than to be watched, he wants to play too but he can't seem to get that message conveyed to the kids or Dad.
Dad has accidentally zapped Pollie and Olie with the Magnotron, giving them superpowers and turning them into Ultra Good Space Heroes, ready to rescue anyone in need of help. Dad missed Zowie though, so she can't be a hero. Yet when a bird gets caught in the house, it's Zowie's sweet nature that coaxes the bird out, not Olie's super strength or Pollie's flying. She's saved the day! Guess you don't need superpowers to be a Space Hero after all.
Olie feels under appreciated. Zowie is always getting all the attention, so it is time to run away! Without anywhere to go he hides up in his treehouse, but from that high viewpoint he soon sees how much his family really misses him.
The National Holiday of Polieville is meant to celebrate ROUND culture, but also the cultures of other shaped people. The Bevels are invited to share in the festivities and they bring a multi-cultural square touch to the events.

There is lots to do today. Chores for Mom and Dad, boinky ball for Olie and a playdate for Zowie. The Polies have worked so hard that the very next morning it is impossible to wake housey up. After trying very hard, they decide to give up and follow Housey's example and take the day off.

It's a sunny happy day at Pappy farm, for everyone but Clippy Clop that is. Ever since the last round up when Precious got away she just hasn't been herself.

Olie is convinced he has come down with a severe case of Doofy-look-itis, and the only thing that can help him now is Bot Spiffer Upper Kit! Olie and his family use the Head-Shrinkerator, flashy blue ear orbs and all sorts of other neat stuff to help them look their best. The only trouble is, they look more doofy than ever before!
Olie loves to spend his spare time at Pappy's Place angling for songfish in the pond under the SONGFISH TREE.

The Best-est Field Trip Of All
Screwy's bragging again about being the best-est at everything. And he's gonna show off when the kids take a field trip to Pappy's farm, being the best-est singer for the Songfish, the best-est clucker among the chickens and the best-est Clippy-clop rider there ever was.

Orb's Well That Ends Well
