Plot
At his lair, Dr. Eggman is enjoying himself on his computer, while Orbot is fixing a Motobug nearby. Orbot is electrocuted, and believes Eggman's following response was directed at him. Eggman insults Orbot and clarifies that he was speaking with his new online friend Nominatus. When introduced to Orbot and Cubot, Nominatus is unimpressed, and he and Eggman laugh in agreement as the two robots dejectedly leave the room. Fed up with their creator's callousness, Orbot and Cubot prepare to leave to find better friends. As the duo try to bid Eggman farewell. Eggman brushes them off, preferring to show off his lair defense system schematics to Nominatus instead.
Team Sonic is enjoying another meal at Meh Burger when Orbot and Cubot appear in hopes of befriending them. The group is suspicious, but the robots prove they have cut ties with Eggman. The group accepts them, but as Orbot offers a game of Charades, they change their minds. Sonic, Amy, Sticks, and Knuckles make up excuses to leave, and Tails ends up with the robots. At his house, where the robots wait for him to do something, Tails provides Orbot and Cubot with a laptop running a video game to occupy themselves so he can leave. The duo start fighting over the laptop, until Cubot suggests they play a game of "Rock-Donut-Thursday" to determine who goes first, but cannot decide who won. As they continue fumbling, they accidentally activate the laptop's surveillance system which show Eggman's office and revealing Nominatus taking over Eggman's robots, but this is quickly hidden from Eggman as he returns from a nap. Orbot and Cubot thus decide to return to Eggman in order to warn him.
Back at the lair, Orbot and Cubot immediately attempt to warn Eggman of his friend's treachery, until a laser turret fires at them, much to Eggman's confusion. Soon Eggman is fired upon as well, and Nominatus announces his betrayal. He then reveals his motive for the takeover: to destroy all life forms on the planet for being "illogical and messy" using Eggman's robots, and confront the three, causing Orbot and Cubot to flee without Eggman. The two head back to Tails' house, where Team Sonic is enjoying milkshakes, and tell what has happened. Sticks is skeptical, but she and her teammates leap into action once they see Eggman being chased by a swarm of his own Bee Bots. Team Sonic destroys a handful of them, but they are too many, so Eggman say they must destroy the virus. Tails, Eggman, Orbot, and Cubot thus run inside the workshop while the other four hold off the Bee Bots.
Inside Tails' Workshop, Tails uses his laptop to hack into Eggman's systems, but cannot pass its firewall. The only option left is to infiltrate the computer, which only Orbot and Cubot can do since they have artificial intelligence. The duo are hooked up to the laptop and have their minds loaded into it, landing in a 16-bit world. After some traveling, they come upon a virtual version of Tails' Plane and rides it; in doing so, they activate the real plane and cause it to fly haphazardly, endangering everyone outside. The two soon crash near a palace which they enter and finds button that Orbot presses. This not only deploys Burnbot to battle Team Sonic, but also traps the two in a room with the walls closing in on them. With no visible way of escape, Orbot asks for Cubot's final words. Miraculously, Cubot says a cheat code that saves them from being crushed, and allows them to finally confront Nominatus.
Nominus is eager for combat, but Orbot and Cubot are too cowardly to engage him. Once again, they play "Rock-Donut-Thursday" to determine which of them has to fight. Upon witnessing the spectacle, Nominatus is left baffled at the stupidity of the game; further observation confuses him so much that his head explodes from logical errors. With Nominatus' defeat, Eggman's robots are deactivated and everyone celebrates victory. Weary from battle, Sonic and Eggman decide to fight some other time. The two schedule a battle for next week, and Eggman, Orbot, and Cubot leave in the Eggmobile to make preparations.
Trivia
- In this episode, Cubot mentions two references to other video game franchises.
- Cubot said the phrase "What if the princess is in another castle?" which is a reference to the famous phrase said by Toad in the original Super Mario Bros.
- Cubot also used the Konami code when he and Orbot was trapped between crushing walls.
- This episode's title is a reference to the children's game musical chairs, where players move around and keep changing the chairs they are sitting on. In this case, Orbot and Cubot were moving around looking for new friends.
- The objectives in the video game that Tails describes for Orbot and Cubot are a nod to the Sega Mega Drive games in the Sonic the Hedgehog series. Also, Cubot's negative response to it may be a reference to how some Sonic games have received mixed reviews.
