[edit] Summary

Eugene creates an animatronic Whit to replace Mr. Whittaker when he leaves town.

[edit] Plot

Whit leaves town for a while, but the kids start to really miss him. When the kids start nearly demanding Whit to return, Eugene creates a computer program of Whit, that the kids can ask questions. To make the representation more realistic, Eugene adds a poster of Whit. Even this doesn't satisfy the kids, however, and Eugene decides to take the next step, to make an animatronic Whit. He spends the whole night working and in the morning presents a full-scale representation of Whit to the eager kids. Just as Eugene is beginning to demonstrate his new invention, the REAL Whit shows up and deactivates the model. He orders the kids to read Exodus 32 in their Bibles and then return to talk about what they did wrong.

[edit] Discussion Questions

1. Why was Whit upset that Eugene had made a robot of him?
