Robow Mops Up

The Hall of Dinosaurs was at the far end of the museum. What Actual Factual and the others saw when they got there took what was left of their breath away.

Robow was in an attack crouch. His lightbulb eyes were flashing red. He was holding a dinosaur bone as if it were a club. Greeves, Lady Grizzly’s butler, and Millie, her maid, were atop the T-rex skeleton. Other members of her staff had gotten out of harm’s way by climbing into the Brontosaurus skeleton’s ribcage.

Robow saw the professor and the oth­ers. He came toward them, his eyes flashing red and his club at the ready.

“Robow, stop!” said the professor.

That’s all it took. The emergency was over. Robow stopped in his tracks. His eyes stopped flashing. The dinosaur bone fell to the floor. All those present breathed a sigh of relief. Greeves, Millie, and the others climbed down from their perches.

“All right, Gus,” said the professor. “Tell me, what went wrong?”

“That’s the trouble,” said Gus. “Nothing went wrong. Robow was doing beautifully. I handed him a broom and said, ‘Robow, sweep,’ and he swept. When the job was done, I said, ‘Robow, stop,’ and he stopped.”

“And then?” said the professor, listening carefully for a clue to what went wrong.

“Then I wrapped a dust cloth around the mop,” continued Gus. “I handed it to Robow and said, ‘Robow, remove spider-webs.’ He did a beautiful job. He removed every web. Then I said, ‘Robow, stop,’ and he stopped.”
