Lorsque son père, un scientifique, dans le but d'améliorer l'esprit de Timmie, le place devant le super ordinateur, le garçon apprend bien plus que comment battre son père aux échecs. Ayant pour objectif de dominer le monde, l'ordinateur demande à Timmie de réactiver Robbie le Robot et ordonne à la bête de métal d'exécuter ses ordres. Mais si Robbie est un serviteur efficace, peut-on l'obliger à faire du mal au garçon qui lui a donné la vie ?
