Oh no! Ricky Ricotta and his mighty Robot have to spend all day playing with Ricky's cousin Lucy. How boring! But when a smelly space-monster named Sergeant Stinkbug lands in Squeakyville and kidnaps Lucy, things get much, much worse. Luckily, Ricky Ricotta has a BIG plan to get out of this stinky situation.
