Motu Patlu is an Indian animated television show that follows the adventures of two best friends, Motu and Patlu, in the fictional city of Furfuri Nagar. In season 1 episode 13, titled "Road Roller," Motu and Patlu accidentally destroy a road roller belonging to the city's mayor, causing chaos and havoc in the city.
The episode begins with Motu and Patlu enjoying a leisurely afternoon when they come across a road roller parked on the side of the road. Motu, being the curious one, decides to hop onto the roller and take it for a spin with Patlu sitting behind him. However, as he accelerates the roller, Motu loses control, and they crash into a street vendor's cart, causing chaos.
The street vendor, furious at the duo, calls the police, who arrive promptly and discover that the roller belongs to the mayor. The duo is taken to the mayor's office, where they apologize for the damage caused. The mayor, not convinced by their apology, orders them to buy a new roller worth one lakh rupees, failing which they would be sent to jail.
Motu and Patlu are now in a bind as they do not have the 1 lakh rupees required to buy a new road roller. Sensing their desperation, John the Don, the local gangster, offers to lend them the required money for a small fee. Being unaware of John's shady past, the duo agree to the deal.
John then gives them a piece of paper that supposedly has the code to a safe deposit box where the money is kept. However, when they reach the bank, they realize that the paper is blank. They turn around to confront John, only to find that he has disappeared with the money. Now left with no other choice, Motu and Patlu decide to buy a second-hand roller from a scrap dealer.
Jai, the scrap dealer, agrees to sell them a roller for 50,000 rupees. They are happy with the price and excited to have finally found a solution to their problem. However, things take a turn for the worse when the roller breaks down in the middle of the road. Unable to fix it, they decide to push it to the mayor's office themselves.
As they are pushing the roller, they come across a group of protesters who are protesting against the increase in taxes. The protestors, thinking that the duo is representing the government, start attacking them with stones and sticks. Motu, in an effort to save himself and Patlu, climbs onto the roller, and starts the engine. The protesters, scared of the roller, run away, leaving a clear path for Motu and Patlu to reach the mayor's office.
The duo finally reaches the office where they present the mayor with the second-hand roller. The mayor, initially not pleased with their choice, inspects the roller and finds that it is in good condition. He appreciates Motu and Patlu's honesty and forgives them for the damage caused earlier.
The episode ends with Motu and Patlu returning home, exhausted but relieved that their ordeal is finally over. They vow to be more responsible in the future and to never again get into such trouble.
