Chyna Parks (played by China Anne McClain) and Lexi Reed (played by Stefanie Scott) try to contain the situation while keeping their classmates and teachers from discovering their secret project.

With time running out and the robot getting increasingly out of control, Olive must convince her aunt that her participation in the A.N.T Program is important. As the chaos becomes too overwhelming, the students of the A.N.T Program must come together to stop the robot before it causes any more damage.

The episode ends with a heartwarming moment when Olive's aunt finally understands how much the A.N.T Program means to her niece and encourages her to pursue her dreams.

Overall, PatANT Pending is a thrilling and engaging episode that showcases the talents of the young actors in the A.N.T Program while also highlighting the importance of following your dreams and staying true to yourself.
