[[Cosmo Spacely|Mr. Spacely]]'s [[Spacely Space Sprockets|company]] had created Rosie in this continuity, and after George's death, [[Cosmo Spacely|Mr. Spacely]] (voiced by Mike Henry), he becomes the new patriarch of the family, much to the chagrin of Elroy and Astro (voiced by [[Donald Faison]] and Mike Henry, respectively), which therefore implicates him in the death of George (and for some reason implicates, Astro, also). Judy (voiced by Chad Morgan) doesn't spend much time with the family anymore; the last time she was seen was in an alley at the back of a Chinese restaurant and is kidnapped by the chef from inside. Rosie pleads her innocence to a judge, who isn't sure what to believe, but crushes her anyway just to be on the safe side.
