Bi Bi occasionally indulges excessively in watching television or video discs, particularly the "Fruit Robot" disc. One day, during a day off when Grandpa had a meeting with wartime friends, he advised her:

"I'm not going to school today; I'll stay home and spend time with Grandma. Watch less TV. Then, go out to the yard, ride your bike, or enjoy the fresh air with Grandma!"

"Yes," Bi Bi responded. Despite this advice, she proceeded to watch the "Fruit Robot" disc for several consecutive hours. Engrossed in the content, she went from disc one to disc two. As she approached the end of the second disc, she suddenly remembered Grandpa's instructions. Attempting to stand up and turn off the television, Bi Bi found herself captivated by a fierce battle scene and sat back down. This cycle repeated a few times as Bi Bi struggled to resist the allure of the screen.

Suddenly, green lightning flashes appeared on the screen, accompanied by a rustling sound. A dry, yellow voice emanated:

"I'm so tired!"

A green ray shot into Bi Bi's eyes, prompting her to close them and roll onto the bed. To her surprise, the television seemed to extend long arms and press them into her eyes, complaining about her prolonged staring. A gust of wind signaled Uncle Gio's arrival to cool down the overheated television.

As Bi Bi regained consciousness, the DVD player flew out of its rack, spinning wildly with the entire drive sticking out like a pinwheel. Despite Bi Bi's pleas to stop, the player continued spinning until Uncle Gio intervened, gently blowing on it to slow down.

Suddenly, the amplifier roared near Bi Bi's ear, and the speakers boomed. Bi Bi complained about the noise, and another cool breeze from Uncle Gio helped restore order.

Thinking she could finally relax, Bi Bi was startled when the machine controller hit her hand hard, screaming shrilly. Bi Bi promised to use it less, and the machine, named Click, returned to its shelf after hearing her pledge.

When Bi Bi opened her eyes, she discovered Grandpa sitting next to her. She excitedly recounted the events with the flying machines, but Grandpa suggested it might have been a dream induced by exhaustion from excessive TV watching. Though Bi Bi remained unsure, she made a resolution: "Okay, from now on, I'll watch fewer movies!"
