With the help of a swarthy drover, Sarah decides to challenge Carney's monopoly by herding 500-strong of prize cattle all the way to port in the face of stiff resistance from her rival's right-hand man and heir apparent, Neil Fletcher.

She assigns Danny and Wheeler a troubled kid apiece - teen Augie and foul-mouthed 10-year-old Ronnie - and instructs the men to use their community service time to get to know the boys and bring them out of their shells.

In the 28th century, mankind has abandoned the planet aboard giant space-ships, leaving behind cities ravaged by pollution and waste. A single solar-powered droid called WALL-E (an acronym for Waste Allocation Load Lifter Earth-Class) is left behind to crush up the piles of scrap metal and detritus into cubes, neatly stacking them one atop the other. Out of the blue, a mothership touches down on Earth and spits out a sleek search-robot called EVE (Extra-terrestrial Vegetation Evaluator), whose mission is to seek out signs of life. WALL-E is instantly smitten with the new arrival and he sets about wooing her using tips he picks up from a worn out video cassette of Hello, Dolly!.
