After her attack in science class,Lauren was rushed to the hospital.She made a full recovery,but the idea of returning to school seemed so dangerous that Lauren and her family decided she would not go back.Instead,a teacher started coming to her house.Lauren was safe,but she missed her friends.
Then Lauren and her family learned about a possible solution:a remote-controlled robot that Lauren could send to school in her place.Lauren became excited by the way the robot-called VGO-allowed her to interact with others.
