"I'm going to need your gears, your belts, and your Allen wrenches."

Boy student without hat: "I don't have control!!!!"
Student on left: "It seems to be morphing!"
Robot: "You will be terminated."
Student on right: "There's something you don't see everyday."

Ironically, 50 years later the THRUST student on the left would invent the first super-intelligent AI, codenamed "Skynet"...

(steps out front) "Cool Robot, 4982! Arms and Legs! I like how you used the signal lights as eyes. But where are the radio lights?"
Driver: "I don't thing that's Olympus' robot."
"Lighten up; they don't need license plates for a demo."

Really they were invited because the manager needed a few pop rivets...

Driver: Sorry Sir!
Manipulator: Never seen the robot behave like that before, it's like it has a mind of its own...

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #574
 

The team was there for a fundraiser and outreach. The robot was there for research and development.

Why does the driver have the same expression on his face as the actress in the poster?

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #574
 

FIRST is going to sell sponsorships on the FRC field walls and barriers next season, but only after testing driver distractibility in a place known for excessive advertising and promotions, a movie theater lobby.

[NPOE]This is actually not a bad idea...[/NPOE]

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #574
 

Spectator: Where's the robot?
Driver: You see our programmer? He's really an infil-tration unit. Part man, part machine. Underneath, it's a hyperalloy combat chassis,mircoprocessor-controlled, fully armored. Very tough. But outside, it's living human tissue. Flesh, skin, hair,blood, grown for the cyborgs.
Spectator: Really?!?!
Driver: No, I'm just kidding our robot's right around the corner.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #574
 

We got asked by two managers at different theaters, actually, and we were originally going to pick the other theater, but the robot wanted to see Terminator, so we changed our plans. It should be okay, because it's not like the robot has a mind of it's own.

[NPOE]Wait, don't I get a pity point (or two) for my entry last contest (#573, aka S12e1)? Or is -infinity just too small to show up??[/NPOE]

My entry for S12e2:

Robots hunting and destroying each other. Time travel. Guns and explosions, sparks and mayhem. Oh, and a movie.
