When Arty's robot runs rampant and a protective security force quickly turns oppressive, Sam, Emmie, and Arty must save their town...again (Disaster Diaries: Brainwashed!). A sarcastic tone renders the fast-paced, life-or-death sci-fi action more humorous than scary. Cartoony illustrated character profiles and other asides are funny and informative but are more of a distraction here.
