The next day, Bart discovers that his cell phone is missing. He searches frantically for it, but it's nowhere to be found. Lisa offers to help him track it down by using technology to pinpoint its location. They initially search around the house, but come up empty-handed.
As they widen their search, Bart and Lisa encounter various obstacles and distractions. They head to the mall, where Bart left his phone on a bench, but it's no longer there.
