Robot from the Future

by Terry Bisson

Eleven-year-old Theodore, his enhanced dog Bette, and his Grandpa deal with a robot who’s traveled from a post-singularity future and needs a Mason jar of gas-o-line to get back home without endangering the Time line.
“There is no Time machine,” it says. “We are not supposed to be here but our Time line pinched and we are in big trouble unless you can help.”
