Sutton is having robot problems. Her mini-bot is supposed to be able to get through a maze in under a minute, but she must have gotten something wrong in the coding. Which is frustrating for a science-minded girl like Suttonalmost as frustrating as the fact that her mother probably wont be home in time for Suttons tenth birthday.
