Please help improve this section by adding citations to reliable sources. Unsourced material may be challenged and removed. ( November 2015 ) The story lines revolve around V.I.C.I. ( an acronym for Voice Input Child Identicant, pronounced `` Vicky '' ), an android in the form of a 10 - year - old girl. V.I.C.I. was built by Ted Lawson, an engineer / inventor for United Robotronics, in an effort to assist handicapped children. The robot is taken home by Lawson so that it can mature within a family environment. V.I.C.I. 's features include superhuman strength and speed, an AC outlet under her right arm, a serial port under her left arm, and an access panel in her back. Despite this, the Lawson family initially tries to pass V.I.C.I. off as an orphaned family member whom they eventually legally adopt as their daughter. The Lawson family tries to keep the robot 's existence a secret, but their disagreeable neighbors, the Brindles, keep on popping up at the most unexpected moments -- especially nosy next - door neighbor Harriet, whose father happens to be Ted Lawson 's co-worker. The show 's humor frequently derived from V.I.C.I. 's attempts to learn human behavior, the robot 's literal interpretation of speech and the family 's efforts to disguise the robot 's true nature. To explain child actress Tiffany Brissette 's aging during the show, the series ' producers had Ted give V.I.C.I. an upgrade in the series ' third season. He aged her face, dressed her in modern clothes, and allowed her to eat and drink. The food passed through her naturally and the drink cooled her internal system.

( November 2015 ) The cast of Small Wonder during the first season Ted Lawson ( Dick Christie ) : Jamie 's father, Joan 's husband, and Vicki 's creator. A robotics engineer who originally created the Vicki robot as a domestic servant with a female child 's appearance. Joan Lawson ( Marla Pennington ) : Ted 's wife and Jamie 's mother. Joan, more than anyone else on the show, regards Vicki as a real person. Jamie Lawson ( Jerry Supiran ) : The 10 - year - old son of Ted and Joan. Harriet Brindle ( Emily Schulman ) : The nosy neighbors ' daughter who has a crush on Jamie. Victoria `` Vicki '' Ann Smith - Lawson ( Tiffany Brissette ) : A robot modeled after a real human girl. The robot was a Voice Input Child Identicant ( V.I.C.I. ), but was nicknamed Vicki. She has real hair and realistic skin. She possesses superhuman strength and speed and runs on atomic power. Vicki has an access panel in her back, an electric socket in her right armpit, and an RS - 232 serial port under her left armpit. Vicki 's artificial intelligence is not perfect ; she is incapable of emotion, speaks in a monotone voice and interprets most commands literally. She does manage to blend into the real world to a point. Vicki attends school, and no one but her family members and a few trusted friends know her secret. Occasionally Vicki had rare abilities that seemed to only appear in one or two episodes, such as elongating her neck to reach a door 's peephole, shrinking her size to become as small as a doll or making herself ten feet tall to get noticed by everyone. Somehow, she could also channel enough electricity through her hands to jump - start a car ( or with more control, restart a person 's heart after suffering a coronary ). One recurring theme was that Vicki had a super-powered learning system which enabled her to improve something such as a new detergent or to greatly increase the gas mileage of cars, which Jamie often saw as a chance to get rich quick, only to find her improvements were not perfect. Vicki lives in a cabinet in Jamie 's bedroom, and becomes more human - like over the course of the show. Recurring This section does not cite any sources.
