Synopsis

Plot
At the Power Plant, it's the "Take your kids to work day". Lenny, not having a kids, hired two, but one of them desert him after having being called to another job for Krusty. As soon as the parents leave their kids in the care of Mr. Burns, he transforms it into a "Put your kids to work day", forcing them to work at the plant.
Lisa excapes the trap and follows Burns, accusing him, but Burns excapes into the bathroom, where Lisa refuses to stay since it's the men's. Burns checks the writing on the bathroom stalls and discovers they hate him. The same occurs in the ladies' bathroom, where a puppy version of him is burning.
To check on the malcontent, Burns plots to go undercover, and assembles a team. Inside his new robotic body, Burns as Fred Kranepool sits at the table with Homer, Lenny and Carl and tries to socialize with them, but as he tries to ask for anything bad, the back to work whistle sounds.
It's revealed that to call people back to work, Burns unleases the Hounds. After escaping to them, they invite Fred to Moe's, where Homer offers him a beer, and they tell Fred that all they ask from Burns is for friendship and respect.
Since Fred is sitting at Barney's sit, Barney has to use the new drive-through service on his Plow King's Plow. Afterwards, the three friends keep socializing, at the Luna Park, at Moe's, fishing and karaoking.
At Burns' manor, Smithers is worried, expecially when he tells him they're his friends. The family is also concerned after Homer keeps spending time with them.
At the Plant, Fred tells Smithers to back off, so after the bantery they ask Fred to talk to Burns for some respect. Fred reclutantly accept and starts enhacting a scene back and forth with his real voice. The scene was so convincing, heard from the guys at the door, that they convince Burns to "die out" his old self and become Fred permanently, to more concern by Smithers.
Homer refuses to eat at home and to go at work on a Saturday, where the place is completely transformed to be workers friendly. When they mentions that Fred might get rid of Smithers soon, he unveils to Homer the truth, and that he's going too far.
Later, when Lenny and Carl arrive, Lenny insults Mr. Burns and Fred gets too angry and tries to strangle him, but he's stopped by Homer, which breaks his robotic arms. Fred escapes but Burns starts confronting him inside the suit. Fred takes control of Burns and tries to get rid of him.
Homer arrives at the scene while Burns delivers the final blow. After a speech from both, everything will go back to normal, and Fred's suit is thrown into the radioactive waste, while it's revealed that the Burns in the fight was no other than one of the creators of Fred.
At the end, a new coworker arrives, Don Phoneyman, and Lenny tries to prove he's Burns by releasing the Hounds on him, but they attack him, and then use the trap door on Carl. Burns then stands in a new and improved Fred suit and starts singing with his three friends again at the karaoke.
