The recruits visit a fair run by a team of rule-loving Fun Droids, but when the droids malfunction it's not just the rules that get broken.

Synopsis
Mr Chuckworth finishes his safety inspection of the control room at Mechapark. Though a passing Fun Droid cautions him against drinking, he leaves his bottle of sparkling water on a control panel and it spills onto the controls. Chase and the recruits arrive at the park, as Chase has arranged for them to visit before the park is opened to the public. They're greeted by Mr Chuckworth and, leaving them with strict instructions to follow the park rules, Chase heads off.
Hot Shot runs towards an octopus ride, but is stopped by a Fun droid as there's no running. Wedge points out the height limit sign for the ride means they're all too tall, however the Fun Droid is now malfunctioning and tells Hot Shot he's the right height. Unsurprisingly Hot Shot breaks the ride when he tries to get on. Realizing something's up, Whirl and Medix tail the Fun Droid while the other three recruits opt to go enjoy the rides. The pair reach the control room where they find the abandoned beverage and realize it's causing the problems. The malfunctions have started spreading, and the pair are now unable to open the door and leave.
Hoist is about to get on a Ferris wheel, but is stopped by a Fun Droid as he has to be accompanied by an adult. The malfunctioning Fun Droid spots the plush rabbit he's carrying and decides it's an adult rabbit, and so lets him on the ride. Medix and Whirl cut their way out of the control room and contact the others, only to find their fellow recruits are all on rides. Medix reports that the rides are also now malfunctioning. Unfortunately the warning comes a fraction too late for the others, who are now stuck on the rides. Whirl manages to rescue Wedge and Hot Shot, however Hoist and the big wheel are hurtling towards a nearby cliff edge. She manages to snatch Hoist from the wheel in the nick of time, however Chase has arrived and wants explanations.
After explanations are given, the recruits apologize and promise to repair everything while Mr. Chuckworth gives his apologies for causing the malfunctions. Medix arrives with the now repaired Fun Droids, who promptly throw Chase and Mr Chuckworth out of the park for not having valid tickets.

Trivia
- Though it's not made explicit, the Mechapark is clearly located in Griffin Rock. This is not the first time a ferris wheel has managed to run rampant, as the same thing happened in "Cody's 11" back in Rescue Bots.
- Did Chase really think any of the rides constructed for humans would be suitable for use by the recruits?
Foreign localization
- TBA
