Driver's Fred

Driver's Fred is the sixth episode of the first season of Fred: The Show.

Synopsis
Fred decides to get his driver's license and enrolls in driver's ed. While waiting for his driving instructor, Fred accidentally becomes an accomplice to a bank robbery!

Plot
It's Sunday and Fred decides to spend the day riding around on his tricycle. He falls off; as he's on the ground nursing his minor scrapes, Kevin pulls up next to him, behind the wheel of a designated student driver vehicle. Kevin mocks him and reveals that he's going to get his license in two weeks.

While his mom treats his scrapes, Fred complains that he should be learning to drive like Kevin. Although she is concerned about Fred operating a vehicle, she is convinced to enroll him in driver's ed once they recount the times Fred was an annoying passenger.

On the television, the news anchorman announces that a dangerous bank robber is on the loose. Kevin flaunts his driving lessons in front of Fred again and the bank robber ends up sneaking into the cul-de-sac and into Fred's mom's minivan-- which is where Fred is waiting for his driving instructor. The robber orders him to do exactly as he says and Fred, thinking he's the instructor, obeys. They end up at a bank where the robber steals more money; in the process of obliviously assisting him, Fred gets caught on the security cameras and a news update later depicts him as an accomplice.

Fred finally realizes that he's driving the bank robber after hearing the report on the radio and connecting the dots. He's unsure what to do and keeps driving. Fred then gets into an argument with the robber about his mistaking of small dogs for squirrels and he inadvertently ends up driving them towards a police car.

He notices and brakes at the last minute, the force knocking the robber out.

Fred's back at home and is watching the news with his mom. He is absolved of being an accomplice to the robber, who is now apprehended, and deemed a hero for bringing him to the police.
