Plot
Fred, a 13-year-old boy living in Barcelona, Spain, is accidentally hit by a robot during a crash landing from space, which he named Friday. The robot, who poses the ability to transform into any electronic device, imprints on Fred, having to follow his orders. It was sent by the Protectors, a secret organisation which protects the galaxy, including Earth, from dangers and evil aliens, to become partner of one of its best secret operatives, agent Brains, also known under her cover name Brianna, who is a brilliant 13-year-old girl, and Fred's neighbour and classmate. She allows him to keep the robot in secret, provided, she will be able to use it for her missions, fighting with evil aliens.[2]
