Queen aleena:
freedom is a precious thing.

I should know.

I'm queen aleena,
and I'm always on the run.

Queen aleena:
but with all the running,

Sometimes you lose sight
of your goal,

Forget the gift
that freedom really is.

Sonia: think some ol' log's
gonna ruffle my spine?

Ha ha ha!

Aah!

My brand new guchini!

Now you're really
gonna see road rage!

Sonia: aaahh!!

Oh, man!

Now I'm really steamed.

Dingo: ha ha ha!
And we're really scared.

Sonia: call , liceheads.

It's your only hope.

Sleet:
road went left, right?

Dingo: right.

Sleet: right? You sure?

Dingo: left! Right!

Sleet:
oh, left then right!

Dingo: no! Left! Left!!

Both: aaaah!

Manic: all right!

So you aced 'em good!

Sonic: sure did.

So where is she anyway?

Sonia?

Sonia: back here!

Would you hurry please?

Sonic: hurry?
That's for slo-mos!

Sonia: ahh! Unh!

It's just one tear.

Maybe I can get it...

[Rip]

Aaah!

My guchini!

This is tragic!

Manic: totally smooth remove
of the mange mutts, sis.

Sonic: yeah!

Couldn't have done better
myself.

So where's your bike?

Manic: whoa!
Major road wear!

Maybe even worse than you.

Sonia: can it, manic!

Just get it rolling, ok?

Manic: actually,
it's not too funky.

Just a couple of tweaks
and...

Sonia: that's it!
That's it!

I've had it!
I need a facial,

I need a pedicure,

And most of all,
I need a massage!

Manic: uh, like, didn't ya just
have a brake fluid facial?

Sonia: I've had it with the mud
and the grit and the oil.

But most of all,
I've had it with you two!

Manic:
aw, chill, sonia!

Don't be such an s.a.p.!

Sonia: meaning?

Manic: spiney annoying princess.

[Revving engine]

Sonia: but I am a princess,

And it's about time
I got treated like one!

I'm going to
mindy latour's place

In east mobius for a break.

If you have anything
to say to me...don't!

Sonic: east mobius?

That sounds familiar.

Wait a nanno-sec!

I got this weird message.

Something about mom
being in east mobius.

Sonia!

Manic: ma? Awesome!

So what's the roadblock

That's keepin' us
from goin' to find her?

Sonic: absolutely nothing,
manic-man!

While sonia's off doing her
princess-thing, we'll find mom!

See ya there!

[Rings doorbell]

Mindy: sonia!

Sonia: mindy!

Both: girlfriend!

Mwah! Mwah! Mwah!

Mindy: did anyone see you?

Sonia: no. Why?

Mindy's dad:
you're a fugitive, sonia.

As glad as we are
to see you,

You must understand,
we have to be careful.

Sonia: ha!
You mean robotnik!?

That egg cup!

Relax girlfriend!

I just dropped by
for some "m" and "m,"

And then I'll be on my way!

Mindy's dad:
"m" and "m"?

Mindy and sonia:
massage and manicure!

Mindy: my fave!

Oh, daddy, please, please,
please, can she stay?

Mindy's dad: just stay
out of trouble, ok?

Mindy and sonia: yay!

Mindy: but, sonia, scarves
are so minutes ago.

Sonia: it reminds me of mother.

Mindy: I'm sorry.

I know you must miss her.

Sonia: I'll find her...

Someday.

It still needs something.

Where'd you get this?

This is so it!

Mindy: really?
I designed it myself!

Daddy's factory makes them.

Sonia: but, no offense,
your dad never does anything.

He doesn't need to.

Mindy: now he does.

Robotnik takes so much
in taxes from our estate,

Daddy said he had
to open the factory

Just to keep me in polka-dots!

But, hey, they're
the hottest seller in mobius!

Here! It's yours!

Sonia: it's the coolest.

Thanks.

Sonia, manic, sonic:
♪ na-na-na-na-na! ♪

Sonia: aah!

Aah! Aah!

Robotnik: ah ha ha ha ha!

Sonia: aah! Aah!

Robotnik: huh?

Sonia: aah!

[Panting and struggling]

Robotnik: huh?

Whoa-ohh-ohh!

Sonia: mother?

Mother! Wait!

Robotnik: ah ha ha ha ha!

Sonia: aah!

[Footsteps]

Sonia: mother?

[Gasp]

[Snapping photos]

Sonia: back off, buddy!

Even my brothers don't get to
look at my little black book!

Well, well, well.

Very creative design, mindy.

Sonia: it's some kind
of surveillance device.

It was sending info to
robotnik's intelligence agency.

Sonic: so, sis!

Doin' a little moonlighting
between mall-trawls?

Sonia: can the comedy, sonic,
this is serious!

Sonic: sure it's still
not transmitting?

Sonia: I have no idea
how much information

It got back to
those r.i.a. Bozos.

One thing for sure,
they know I'm here.

You better get here fast.

Sonic:
oh, we just happen to be
in the neighborhood.

Meet us outside the watch
factory right behind
latour's estate.

Sonia: you're already here.
Why?

Sonic: no time, sis.

I'll explain when ya get here.

Sonia: sonic, what I said about
being fed up with you guys...

Uh, i...

Sonic: yeah, yeah,
you were way wrong...

I know.

So get your pampered butt
over here!

Sonic: manic...

What'd I say about stealin'?

Manic:
hey, it was callin' my name.

Sonic: a polo mallet?

Manic: for insect control.

But you'll have
to get your own!

Unh! Unh! Unh!

Sonic: aah!

R.i.a. Agent n.:
Incarcerate them!

Agent n.: Aha!

Just as my departed
surveillance unit reported!

Two hedgehogs down...

And one to go!

The female is in the house.

Find her!

Agent n.: Find the female!

She mustn't slip away!

Sonic: who are you?

Agent n.:
Robotnik intelligence agent n.,

And you are hereby arrested
for crimes against the state

And because...dr. Robotnik
hates hedgehogs!

Sonic: thanks, sis.

Gee, they just don't make bots
like they used to.

Poor agent n.'S probably gonna
take a slide down
the alphabet...

So how about we check out
this factory?

Sonia: first, tell me why you
guys were in the neighborhood.

Manic: it's been scoped.
Ma was here.

Sonia: oh, really?
And did you find her?

Sonic: no,
just a lotta swat-butts,

And they all seem to be
hangin' around here.

Manic: allow me.

[Gasp]

Sonic: so robotnik sells
these watches dirt cheap,

Everyone buys one...

Sonia: and everyone
gets spied on.

Watches that watch...
Clever, huh?

Sonic: I think they need
a sonic underground makeover.

[Gasp]

Mindy: sonia? The alarm
went off at the house.

We thought someone was
breaking into the factory!

Mindy's dad: someone is.

I told you she'd be trouble.

And these two must be
her criminal brothers!

Sonic: after what
we've seen, mr. Latour...

We could be calling you
the same thing!

Mindy: daddy? What is going on?

Sonia:
mindy, your father's watches

Do a whole lot more
than tell time.

[Mindy gasps]

Mindy's dad: don't
listen to her, honey.

Uh, c'mon, let's go.

Mindy: no, daddy, wait.

What...what is that?

Sonia: they're spies...for
robotnik's intelligence agency.

Mindy:
daddy? Is it true?

You knew, didn't you?

Oh, daddy, how could you!?

Mindy's dad: believe it or not,
mindy, I did it for you.

Mindy: yeah, right.

Sonia: hear him out.

Mindy's dad: when you have
children of your own,

Maybe you'll understand.

I wanted to keep you
safe and happy.

If I said no to robotnik,
he'd take everything away,

And I couldn't let him do
that to my little girl!

Mindy: but, daddy,these things
are spying on people!

What about mobius?

Mindy: ♪ money can't buy
the things we really need ♪

♪ Like the sun,
or the rain ♪

♪ Or the air we breathe ♪

♪ Can't buy a loving touch ♪

♪ Or the freedom
we miss so much ♪

♪ Yeah, if you look
inside your heart ♪

♪ I know you'll see ♪

♪ That money can't buy ♪

♪ The things you really need ♪

All: ♪ money can't buy,
money can't buy ♪

♪ Money can't buy
the things you really need ♪

♪ Money can't buy ♪

♪ Money can't buy the things
you really need ♪

Mindy: ♪ all the diamonds
and pearls ♪

♪ Can't put love in the world ♪

♪ If you look inside your heart,
I know you'll see ♪

♪ That money can't buy
the things you really need ♪

All: ♪ money can't buy,
money can't buy ♪

♪ No, money can't buy
the things you really need ♪

Mindy's dad:
believe me, mindy,

I'd love to knock that pompous,
bullying blowfish rotundnik

On his big round butt!

Mindy: oh, daddy!

I don't need shopping and
facials and manicures!

All: you don't?!

Mindy: no!

Well, I could cut back.

I know I could
definitely cut back!

Mindy: I wanna be a freedom
fighter, like sonia!

I wanna live life on the run,
enemies around every corner.

So what should I wear --

My pink camouflage gear
or the safari suit?

Sonic: first we've got to
get you away from here.

Mindy's dad: we sure do!

Sleet and dingo are going to
come by looking for the watches!

Sonic: no problemo.
You go pack.

Sonia, manic and I'll get
that shipment ready
for the furball twins.

Mindy's dad: come on, mindy!
We haven't got much time!

Pack only the bare essentials.

Mindy: right. You think
my aerobicizer mini-gym

Will fit in our luggage?

Manic: oh, lucky us.

Another snooty diva
joins the resistance...

Sonia: hey, maybe she'll
give a fashion disaster
like you some style.

Sonic: don't worry.

I've got enough style
for both of us.

Now let's jam!

Sleet: open up, latour,
you blue-blooded bore!

We want our watches!

Mindy's dad: mindy!
We have to go...now!

Mindy: which do you think'll
look better in the forest...

Blue or red?

Mindy's dad: neither will
look good in robotnik's dungeon!

Let's go!

Sleet: I've had it with
all this noblesse no-baloney!

Knock it down!

Dingo: ow!

Sleet: so where are they?
Find them, dingo!

Manic: yo, shouldn't mindy be
back from the house by now?

Sonia: probably doing
a farewell facial.

Sonic: better tell her
we're waiting!!

Sleet: come on, latour!

You aristotwitic lounge lizard!
Where are you?

Dingo, have you seen latour?

Dingo: no...but how d'ya
s'pose these suitcases

Can move all by themselves?

Sleet: they don't,
you monumental moron!

That's them!

Freeze, latour!

Both: aah!

Sleet: I'll stop them!

Mindy's dad: mindy! Leave them!

Mindy: oh...
Oh, all right!

Sleet: no! Don't go!

I rolled out the carpet for you!

[Mindy and her father gasp]

Mindy: dadddyyy!!!

Mindy's dad: let us go!

Sleet: cuff 'em, dingo!

Dingo: gotcha!

Mindy's dad:
run for it, mindy!

Sleet: she's
not going anywhere!

Uh ha! Heh heh heh heh!

[Mindy struggling]

Mindy's dad: oh...oh...oh...

Sleet: hurry up, dingo!
Cuff him!

Sonic: sorry, sis, but I can
never pass up a chance

To go bowlin' for boneheads!

Dingo: huh?

Umph! Whoaaah!

Hey! What the...?

Wait!

Dingo and sleet: ohhh!

Oh...hey...ah...

All: yes!

Mindy's dad: to freedom!

[Gasp]

Agent n.: Traitors,

Blue, polka-dot and otherwise,

You are all under arrest,
for crimes against the state.

Sonia: agent n. Again?

Oh, that poor guy
just doesn't quit!

Sonic: confidentially,

I think he has trouble
keeping his head together!

Sonic: hmmm!

Dingo: hey! Those
are our prisoners!

Who does that bloke
think he is?

Sleet: oh, those r.i.a.
Metalheads are always
trying to hog the glory!

Sonia: not this again! Aah!

Agent n.:
Yes, this again!

I made some modifications.

This time, my plan is
absolutely hedgehog-proof!

As you see, this vehicle is
not just a full as*ault t*nk,

But a portable roboticizer,
as well!

Mindy: hey! What's going on?!

Agent n.:
Ms. Latour,

You're about to become famous...
And roboticized!

Mindy: no!

Agent n.: Activating
roboticization...now!

Sonic: I'm baaaack!

Not bad, agent n.

Agent n.: It is better
than not bad, hedgehog!

Mindy:
sonic...i'm waiting!

Sonic: not to worry.
There's always plan "b."

Agent n.: Plan b?
What is that?

Sonic: oh, just some
of your r.i.a. Toys

Manic and I reprogrammed
in our spare time...

To disassemble anything
I programmed 'em to!

Agent n.: No!
This cannot be happening!

Not again!

I won't get my pro-mo-tion.

Sonic: all right!

Sonia: we did it!

Mindy: strike one for mobius!

Mindy's dad: good work!

Manic: yippee!

Sleet: now's our chance
to seize the hedgehogs

While they're off their guard!

Dingo: but what about
those creepy crawly things?

Aaah! Aaah!

Sleet:
dingo, get back here!

You can't possibly be scared
of one tiny, harmless
mechanical spider!

[Gasp]

Sonic: on the other hand,
what would ya say to ?

Sleet: huh?

Aaah!

Mindy's dad:
take a long look, honey.

It may be the last time
you see it.

Sonia: it's hard to leave home.

Manic: hey, but you still
get to hang with your dad.

Mindy: that's right.

That's all that matters.

Sonia: it sure is!

Home is where your family is.

Even if they are just a pair of
fashion-challenged spineheads!
