Fender returns upon escaping from the Chop Shop and reveals Ratchet and Gasket's plot. Herb encourages Rodney to fight for his dreams, or he will spend the rest of his life regretting it like Herb did. Crushed, Rodney calls his parents and plans to return to Rivet Town. Bigweld reveals Ratchet's greed and business sense dwarfed his idealism in the management of Bigweld Industries, leading to his resignation, and tells Rodney and Cappy to leave. Meanwhile, Rodney and Cappy fly to Bigweld's mansion, where they eventually find Bigweld and tell him what has been going on. Fender is captured by a Sweeper, a Chop Shop refuse collection vehicle, where he discovers Gasket and Ratchet's plan to use a fleet of Super-Sweepers to collectively scrap and smelt every outmode in the city. Cappy, a Bigweld Industries executive opposed to Ratchet's plans, rescues Rodney and Fender. Enraged, Rodney publicly berates Ratchet, who orders his security team to eliminate him. Hoping to enlist Bigweld's help, Rodney and Fender infiltrate the Bigweld Ball – where Bigweld usually makes an appearance – only for Ratchet to announce that Bigweld will not attend.
Word of Rodney's mechanical prowess spreads, and he is hailed as a local hero after he and the Rusties fix outmodes throughout the neighborhood, although they are eventually unable to cope with the demand due to the spare part shortage. Fender takes him in to a boarding home populated by other outmodes, known collectively as the "Rusties". Rodney befriends Fender Pinwheeler, a ne'er-do-well he met at the train station.
Meanwhile, Ratchet's mother, Madame Gasket, runs the Chop Shop, a facility that collects scrap, spare parts, and outmoded robots and recycles them into ingots for upgrades. Ratchet, who, in Bigweld's absence, has stopped producing spare parts and inventions in favor of expensive "upgrades", thereby "outmoding" robots who are unable or unwilling to pay for them. Upon his arrival, Rodney is ejected from Bigweld Industries by the company's current head, Phineas T. In an attempt to help Herb pay for the damages, Rodney decides to move to Robot City, hoping to present Wonderbot to Bigweld Industries. When Herb's supervisor confronts them, Wonderbot malfunctions and wreaks havoc in the kitchen. Following Bigweld's example to "see a need, fill a need", Rodney develops a small, flying robot, named Wonderbot, to assist his father, Herb, who works as a dishwasher at a restaurant. He idolizes Bigweld, a famous inventor, entrepreneur, and philanthropist whose company, Bigweld Industries, hires other inventors and provides robots with spare parts.
