Short Circuit 2

After Nova Robotics goes bankrupt after the Short Circuit (1986 film) by Captain Shroeder, one of their programmers, Benjamin Jahveri (Fisher Stevens), starts up his own business, "Titanic Toy Corporation", that specializes in making Entertainment robot that he makes by hand from the back of his truck. For two days, Ben has been in a big city implied to be New York City peddling his toy robots on the street corners. One robot wanders away from his stand and makes its way into the office of Sandy Banatoni (Cynthia Gibb), an assistant buyer for Simpsons (department store)' toy department. Sandy tracks Ben down and orders 1,000 of his toys. Overhearing this offer is con artist Fred Ritter (Michael McKean), who smooth-talks his way into brokering the transaction between Ben & Sandy, becoming Ben's business partner in the deal, and later acquiring the funding Ben needs from a loan shark.
