Premise

Robbie climbs inside a soccer-playing robot and challenges Sportacus to a match – and if Sportacus loses, he’ll have to leave town forever. But the robot goes haywire, so Sportacus and the kids have to play against it until it runs out of energy. Pixel, who almost never comes outside to play games, becomes the game's hero when he puts his video game-playing skills to use in a real soccer game.

Plot synopsis

Prologue

The episode starts with a view of Sportacus' Airship. The view then quickly changes to Sportacus who is juggling a soccer ball. After kicking it a few times he does a back flip kick sending the ball into the hole in the wall. He then presses the switch on the floor sending another ball flying out towards him. After kicking it a few times, he kicks it back into the hole again, only to accidentally step on the switch causing the ball to fly out and hit him in the back of the head.

Main episode

Epilogue

Back in the lair Robbie Rotten sits in his chair looking depressed muttering under his breath, when the Soccer-Bot 6000 mysteriously activates and chases Robbie around the room, angry that he "made him lose".

Trivia

The scene where they defeated the Soccer-Bot was shown in the earlier episode "Dear Diary", so "Soccer Sucker", which is the 24th episode of Season 1, could have been made before "Dear Diary", the 16th episode.
This episode was planned before the series had begun filming, as it is shown in the pilot.

+==Premise==

-== Personality ==
+==Plot synopsis==
-Stingy, as his name implies, is the stingiest and greediest person in LazyTown. His catchphrase is "It's Mine!", which he says about almost everything, going as far as to having a song, [[The Mine Song]], where he claims that everything is LazyTown belongs to him. Most of the time, this is played for laughs or to the slight exasperation of his friends except in the episode '''''[[The Great Crystal Caper]]''''' where, after causing Sportacus to lose his crystal, Stingy finds and keeps it. He eventually gives it back and is deeply sorry and vows to try and do better at returning things that don't belong to him. His most prized possessions are his pink piggy-bank, simply called '''Piggy''', and his yellow toy-car, in which he can often be seen driving, or parked next to the Sports Field. Despite his greedy manner, he is a good friend who generally cares about them, and wouldn't let them down. He enjoys playing especially with his friends, but becomes hurt and angry, when he is excluded, or they don't want to play with him, as seen in '''''[[My Treehouse]]''''' when his friends exclude him from their "Friends Forever" club, on the basis that he can't work in a team (Later in the episode this is shown to be true, but he does immensely improve) he ties up the clubhouse with rope (While they are still inside!) and attempts to drag it away, he is stopped by Sportacus, who after asking him why, convinces the kids to let him join. He is very musical, with him shown on the Saxophone, Harmonica, Bass, and Recorder. He is great on roller-blades (Of which he owns many), and is quite good at soccer. He is very clean and hygienic (Owning ''many'' toothbrushes, and he even taught Ziggy how to brush his teeth!) As well as teaching the kids how important it is to clean up, and to keep everything tidy ('''''[[Trash Trouble]]''''').
