**Good Old ROD** is episode 21b of season 3 of Kuu Kuu Harajuku.

## Summary

Inspired by how R.O.D. is always selflessly helping HJ5, G decides to give him a day off work. But when Baby and Rudie overhear G hiring a temporary replacement robot for R.O.D, they think she's permanently replacing him. Rudie suggests they use an personality modifier chip to make R.O.D. more fun so G won't replace him, but the chip is defective and causes R.O.D. to act extremely bizarre.
