Summary
Binky had already failed Mr. Ratburn's class once and went on the sleepover to the Science Museum. This year, they are going again and he is just as bored as he was the first time. The only thing that's different is a new unopened exhibit about the future, so Binky sneaks in when everyone else is asleep, only to be trapped in the model space transport. After a dream where he is trapped in the future with robots, he holds a new interest in science.
Plot
Binky dreads going to the museum because he did it last year, but he sees an exhibit that excites him, "The World of Tomorrow", but to Binky is disappointment it is closed. Then while everyone's asleep (except Binky) he sneaks inside "World of Tomorrow", but gets Trapped inside a spaceship. Then Binky dreams he's in the future and gets out with help from Thruster (who resembles Buster) and he discovers he's in "World Of Yesterday" instead of "Tomorrow" and in the year March 10, 2203. Then, Thruster thinks he's an exhibit, but Binky's on a quest 4 his classmates, but Thruster tells him he can't leave, people will want a refund. Then Binky says he isn't part of the exhibit, he's a Kid like Buster, then Thruster doesn't know what a kid is and says he's an "Immature Artificial Life-Form". Then he takes Binky to a craft, "Take me to anytime." Binky had to answer a science question,"What tiny particles attract a washer to a magnet?" I do not know Binky cried. Then when his dream was over. He saw Buster and told him is Mr. Ratburn's still a robot and Buster asked, "I was a Robot? Did I do cool stuff? Did I shot lasers out of my eyes? Did I drink motor oil?" Lastly, Binky learned that the atoms were what attacked the washer to the magnet, from that moment on Binky had new found respect for Science.
Trivia
Notes
- In "The World of Tomorrow," while at the museum, Sue Ellen and George do the same thing that their look a likes did last year. Sue Ellen (and her look alike) rubs their feet on the carpet and shock Binky, at the static electricity exhibit. George (and his look alike) set off an alarm by sneaking and stealing a model car from an exhibit.
- Viewers learn in "The World of Tomorrow" that Binky was in Mr. Ratburn's class the year before. Previously, it had only been stated that he was made to repeat third grade.
- In Mr. Ratburn's other third grade class, the one Binky was in, there are kids that look, wear colors, and have characteristics just like Francine, Sue Ellen, Fern, Jenna, Arthur, Buster, George, and the Brain. The same thing applies to the students in Mr. Price-Jones' class. However, Arthur's lookalike is a rabbit, Brain's is a cat, Francine's is a monkey (like her), Sue Ellen's is a bear, Fern's is a rat or a poodle, George's is apparently an antelope, Muffy's is an aardvark, and Buster's is apparently a bear.
Goofs
- In this episode, Binky hates mac'n'cheese, but in "Francine Redecorates" he says he loves mac'n'cheese!
- If Mr. Ratburn wanted the class to go to sleep rather than talk, that would include Binky.
Quotes
- Buster: Whoa, this is so cool. Did they have this exhibit here last year?
