Somewhat belatedly entering the Machine Age, Boss Hogg (Sorrell Booke) fires Roscoe (James Best), purchases a robot named Bobbie Joe (played by Robert Shields of "Shields and Yarnell" fame) and pins a sheriff's badge on the clattering hunk of tin. Little does Boss know that the robot has been stolen from its inventor by a pair of crooks who intend to hold it for ransom. Things get even worse when the crooks change their plans and use Bobbie Joe to rob a bank--carefully pinning the blame on Roscoe and the Duke boys! ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
