After goat Bah finds a stray sock on the ground, robot Beep--whose endearing witlessness recalls SpongeBob SquarePants--resolves to find its match. The serviceable comics-style layouts show the friends' slapstick-y encounters with animals they meet on their journey through an otherwise unpopulated futuristic world. A final "gotcha!" panel shows that the matching sock has been with them all along.
