NARRATOR:

Our worlds are in danger!

To save them and the galaxy,

we must find

the four Cyber Planet Keys

before the Decepticons

can use them for evil.

It is our mission.

[YELLS]



Clocker!

That jerk!

That's it!

I may be old,

but I'm not gonna

let you push us around.

[GROWLS]

[CHUCKLES]



[LAUGHING] Yeah, right.

Say cheese!



Wait!

Huh?



Huh?

You okay?

Yeah, I am now.

Who are you?



Hmm?

Oh, I'm...

[THINKING]

What did I do? I mean,

I couldn't just let those guys

b*at up on

those other two,

but I'm not supposed

to be talking

to anyone on this planet.

Oh, man. This is gonna

cause big trouble.

Why don't you

call me a friend?

Well, I guess

that's good enough for me.

Me too.

Thanks, friend.

[THINKING]

I doubt Optimus is

going to be as forgiving.

What was Hotshot thinking?

He knows we're forbidden

from interacting with

the inhabitants

of this planet.

And plowing into them

and knocking them over

is way more than

just interacting.

So you wanna

play rough, huh?

Huh?

We'll show you

what rough is.

[GRUNTS]

Hotshot, Transform.

[GRUNTING]

Whoa, this guy's

pretty good.

He's giving us

a run for our money.

I thought you said not to

compliment the guys we fight.

Zip it, Crumplezone.



[SCOFFS]

Whoa!

I'm getting

a little dizzy here.

Clam up, already. Let's finish

this guy off today sometime.

I can't stop this spin!

That's the whole idea.

Time to pay the price

for getting in our way.

Hotshot!

Red Alert, Transform.

[♪♪♪]

[SIREN WAILING]

This is my favorite part.

Say good night, punk.

Not so fast!

You okay?

I'll tell you when

the spinning stops.

Transform!



Transform!

[♪♪♪]

[BOTH SNICKER]

Come on, we gotta

get out of here.

Let me just take care

of one little thing.

Hotshot, don't do it!

He keeps dodging

our sh*ts!

RANSACK:

Quit doing that!

[LAUGHING]

Oh, great.

[BOTH GRUNT]

Your aim is great, but only

when you sh**t at each other.

[BOTH GROAN]



That's not nice at all.

Don't worry, we're gonna make

him pay. And pay bigtime.

But we'll make him pay later.



Yeah!

Aw, Breakdown,

you just have to be okay.

Don't worry.

Let me take a look.

It's okay. He's our medic.

If anyone can help, he can.

I'm...okay.

No. You're hurt, Breakdown.

I just want to make sure

that you're safe.

Don't worry, you two.

It looks like you're both fine.

Breakdown, your

stabilizer is damaged.

You may feel a little dizzy,

but all you need is some rest.

I don't know what we would

have done without you.

We both owe you

our gratitude.

But we don't even know

who we're thanking.

Who are you, anyway?

Oh, well, we're just, um...

Just Good Samaribots

who were passing by.

Yeah. We're not

from around here.

Yeah, right, like a million

miles not from around here.

I've lived here for more

years than I can count,

and I'm sure

I would have heard

of ones as powerful

as yourselves.

Oh, well, that's because

we're usually not this helpful.

[BOTH CHUCKLE NERVOUSLY]

Huh?

RED ALERT: Hotshot...



HOTSHOT: I know!

But what was

I supposed to do?

Let those jerks

b*at up on those two guys?

We have our orders.

Optimus Prime told us

no interaction whatsoever with

the residents of this planet.

He couldn't have been

more clear.

Sometimes doing the right thing

means going against orders.

Hotshot, I understand

your desire to help.

But we don't even know what the

right thing was in this case.

You have to remember,

we know nothing about

this planet

or its customs.

Maybe that battle was

the way things are done here.

Then it's time to change

the way things are done.

If we see a fight that isn't

fair, I think it's our duty

to jump in and stop it,

don't you?

But in this case,

it doesn't matter what we think.

No matter where we go,

we have to bring

the honor

of Cybertron with us.

We fight for what's right.

I know, but-- Listen,

we could discuss this all day,

but the fact is that we're

strangers in a strange land.

We have to respect

the customs on this planet,

not uphold the customs

of the planet we come from.

CLOCKER: What?



[GASPS]

BOTH [GASP]:

Clocker!

B-Breakdown told me to come

invite you to our home

so we could thank you

more properly for your help.

I wasn't trying to listen in

on what you were saying,

I swear.

But is it true?

I mean, are you guys

really from another planet?

'Cause that would be so cool

if you were. So is it true?

[BOTH GROAN]

[♪♪♪]

But Optimus...

It just makes sense.

I know you don't want

to bring both of them back,

but let me take

the place of one of them.

It's still not too late

to make the switch.

I've already told you.

I made my decision,

and I'm sticking by it.

JETFIRE: But Optimus--



OPTIMUS: Jetfire.

[ALL GASP]

Everyone, gather around.

We have an emergency mission.

What's going on?

Who was Jetfire talking about

when he said he'd switch

places with them?

Well, I think

he was either talking about

Red Alert or Hotshot.

What's wrong?

Doesn't he like those guys?

No, he likes 'em just fine.

They're good guys.

But he's worried about

them working together.

I get it, they don't

like each other.

No. They just have

different personalities.

Hotshot is built for speed, so

his body's faster than his mind.

And Red Alert

is about caution,

so his mind moves faster

than his body.

[♪♪♪]

What?

These guys are

from another planet?

Yeah! Yeah, that's what

they told me!

Yes, it's true.



But don't worry.

We're nothing to fear.

We're not here to harm anybody

or cause any trouble, really.



Mm-hm.

Well, I believe you.

If you had come here

for some sinister purpose,

well, then this one...

The name's Hotshot.

Hotshot, then.

He wouldn't have helped us

against Ransack and Crumplezone,

and you...

I'm...Red Alert.

You wouldn't have fixed me up

after they left, Red Alert.

But why have you come to

the Speed Planet, anyway?

We're looking for something

called a Cyber Planet Key.

Do you know where

we might find it by chance?

Cyber Planet Key?

No, I've never

heard of such a thing.

BOTH:

Hmm...

Maybe I can help you more

if you tell me

what this thing looks like.

Well, we don't

really know.

Can you at least tell us

what color it is?

Sorry, no idea.

Maybe we'll know what it is

if you tell us what it does.

We don't know that,

either.

Boy, oh, boy, you boys sure

don't know much, do you?

Well, I'm gonna help

you guys

no matter how tough

this search is.

I mean, both of us

owe you bigtime

for helping us out

before, you know?

Thanks, Clocker.

That would be a lot of help.

So I can go with 'em,

right, Breakdown?

Hmm...



Thanks, Clocker,

but we can't put you in the path

of danger because of us.

But you guys don't know

anything about this planet.

You'll never be able to find

your way around without me.

I'm not going to be

getting into trouble.

I'm going to be keeping

you guys out of it.

Well, he does have

a good point, Red Alert.

Remember our orders?

Oh, Clocker's right.

We do both owe you

a debt of gratitude,

and without our help,

you're sure to get into trouble.

So I think Clocker

should go with you.

But Breakdown, you can't.

Make sure you do

what they tell you

and don't get in their way.

CLOCKER: Right!



[SIGHS]

If you know what's good

for you, Starscream,

you'll back off.

[♪♪♪]

Take this!



[GRUNTS]

[LAUGHS]

Well, well.

Somebody's weak spot.

But I'm gonna have some fun

before taking you down for good.

Fire!

[LAUGHS]

Let's see you

dodge this.

[GROANS]

Whoa! Who's that?

I'll give you three guesses.



Optimus Prime!

Good, you got it in one.

I'll take care of Starscream.

You return to base, Jetfire.

You got it.

I'm on my way.

I'll take care of you

next time, Optimus.

But this time,

I'll let you go.

Just like a coward to run.

That's right, fool. Think

I'm running away if you want.

That just means

you'll never suspect

that there's more

to my plan.

[LAUGHS]

Yeah, take me right to

your little secret base.

Starscream, Transform!

[GRUNTS]

[LAUGHS]

Gotcha.

[♪♪♪]

Now...for a little extra power

to destroy that base.

[LAUGHS]

Rebuilding that'll keep

you busy and out of our way

while we find

the Cyber Planet Keys.

[LAUGHS]

BUD:

Aw, our base blew up.

Well, the fake one.

Our plan worked.

By getting the Decepticons

to annihilate our decoy base,

they'll turn their attention

away from finding our real base.

JETFIRE:

Worked better than we ever could

have hoped is more like it.

The only real hard part was

running away from Starscream

instead of fighting him.



Don't get overconfident.

We still have

a long way to go.

Gee, thanks for

reminding me, Optimus.

You must get whiplash from

changing moods so fast.

Well, we can only hope

that things are going

as well on the Speed Planet.

I know.

Everything's riding on that.

CLOCKER:

Hurry up, you guys.

HOTSHOT:

They're not kidding when

they call this the Speed Planet.

Clocker, do you think

this Override

knows something about

the Cyber Planet Key?

I'm not sure, but she's

the fastest racer around.

Sometimes racers compete

to win prizes,

and if this Cyber Key thing

was one of them,

chances are

that Override won it.

Yeah? We'll see how fast

she is. Hey, wait.

You guys see that up ahead?

Clocker, what is that?

Does this mean trouble?

Yeah, only if

it's not around.

It repairs the roads.

We couldn't get around

half as well without it.

It's probably going to

fix the damage

Ransack and Crumplezone

caused.

HOTSHOT:

Man, that thing's huge.

CLOCKER:

You don't have anything

like it back home?

HOTSHOT:

We don't even have roads

like this.

RED ALERT:

We may not have a home if

we don't find that Planet Key.

Right. Sorry,

I was just curious.

You think someday

I'll get to see your planet?

Um, I guess.

Anything's possible.

Whoa. What's that?

CLOCKER:

It's Speed Planet's

tallest mountain.

It's called Mt. Stargaze.

HOTSHOT:

Cool. You can

drive right up it?

CLOCKER:

That's why they put

roads on it.

HOTSHOT:

What are we waiting for?

Let's go!

Yeah, sounds good to me.

Awesome, let's hit it.

Have you completely forgotten

we're on a mission?

We don't have time

for sightseeing.

Sure, I remember.

But we need to find Override,

and if she's nearby,

we can see her from

that mountain.

So come on, Clocker.

Let's go!

All right!

Oh, just great.

[♪♪♪]

Wow, Hotshot, you're almost

as fast as Override.

I might even be faster.

Hey, we're about to come up

on some tight curves.

You might want

to slow down.

Don't worry about me, kid.

I can handle it.

Hotshot,

what are you doing?

[WHOOPING]

That was cool.

You see? There's nobody

better than me on the road.

See you at the top!

Now that's what

I call a great view.

Clocker...



Hmm?

So where can we find this

Override, anyway?

There. See that big mountain

with the flat top?

There's a racetrack

that she always goes to.

[♪♪♪]

OVERRIDE:

I already told you,

I don't know anything

about any

Cyber Planet Key.

Sorry, boys. But if it's not

a race, I'm not interested.

Help us find it, and I'll reward

you greater than any race.

Ha. I seriously

doubt that,

but you got my attention.

I'm listening.

Just name your price,

and it's yours.

Yeah? But what's more valuable

than the Planet Cup?

The Planet Cup?

Don't get out much,

do you?

The prize that goes to

the world's fastest racer?

May we see it?

It just might be the Key.

Maybe. I mean, you are looking

at the lady who won it.

[GRUNTING]

[GRUNTS]

Whoa...

Check out this course.

I could tear this up.

Hey, look over there. That's

Override by those other guys.

Hmm? Oh, no.

CLOCKER:

What's wrong? You wanted

to find her, right?

HOTSHOT:

Yeah, we found her all right,

but she's with Megatron

and our old friends

Ransack and Crumplezone.

Oh, no, the Decepticons

got to her first.

No!



Hold on.

Let's watch and see

what they're up to, Hotshot.

Very well, Override,

if you have this Planet Cup,

you must take us

to it immediately.

What's the hurry?



Why, those meddling Autobots.

And what are

these Autobots?

Part of an evil organization

that's out to rule the universe.

They're also after

the Cyber Planet Key.

We cannot allow them to get it

before we do.

Yeah, well, I really wish that

that interested me.

Listen, b*at me in a race, and

I'll show you the Planet Cup.

Let's do it.

Override, Transform!

[♪♪♪]

You can do it, boss!

Yeah, show her

how it's done!

[FUMING]

Hotshot, you're not thinking

about running out there

and joining in on this,

are you?

Oh. No. Of course not.

All right, listen up. We make

three laps around the track.

You b*at me,

you get the Planet Cup.

Did you hear that,

Red Alert?

If Megatron wants

that Cup so badly--

It must be

the Cyber Planet Key.

It's up to me.

No, Hotshot!

Hey, it's that guy again.

What does he want?

[♪♪♪]

[♪♪♪]

Hope you don't mind

if I get in on this race.

Be my guest,

if you want to lose.

That's not gonna happen.

And when I win,

I get to hear all about

the Cyber Planet Key.

No! You must not

tell him anything.

He's from that evil organization

I told you about before.

What? I'm from an evil

organization? Are you kidding?

You Decepticons practically

invented evil.

I don't care if

either one of you

belongs to some evil

organization.

I just want to know if you can

b*at me in a race or not.

See you later, chump.

OVERRIDE:

Not bad. But let's see what

you've got on the turns.

HOTSHOT:

I've got more than enough

to handle you.

Cyber Key Power!

No way!

That Planet Cup

is mine.

This isn't over yet!

[MEGATRON GROANING]

[LAUGHS]



Comin' through.

MEGATRON:

I will win that Cup!

HOTSHOT:

No!

OVERRIDE:

Don't you ever learn?

[GRUNTING]

Last again!



Yeah!

Wow, I can't believe

how fast Hotshot is.

He's almost as fast

as Override.

Hopefully...he'll win before

there's any trouble.

If the boss doesn't win this,

he's gonna be real upset.

Then I guess

we'd better make sure

that he wins it,

right, Ransack?

[♪♪♪]

One more lap. This is

my last chance to pass her.

[GRUNTS]

No way!



Yes way!

You may have

more power than me,

but my technique will

always defeat your power.

It's cheatin' time.

Cyber Key Power!

What's that?

It's bad news!



Hotshot, look out!

If those hit him,

he's done for.

If I dodge 'em,

I'll lose the race.

And the Cyber Planet Key.

CLOCKER:

He's not getting out

of the way!

[BOTH GASP]

No!

[SIGHS]

The m*ssile missed him.

But he's out of the race.

No!



[LAUGHS]

Yep, that's

some good cheatin'.

[SNICKERS]

BOTH: Huh?



How dare you ruin my race?

You think I need

fools like you to win?

[BOTH WHIMPERING]

BOTH:

Megatron!

Our business here is done.

Let's go.

But I want you to bring me

that Planet Cup.

No matter what you have

to do to get it.

Got it.



Got it.

Not bad, kid.

Wasn't good, but it's a start.

Who knows, you actually

might have had a chance

if those other guys

hadn't jumped in.

Listen, Override, we really have

to talk about the Planet Cup.

And we will.

The next time we race.

Drop by here sometime after

you recover from this one.

Of course, you won't win

the next one, either.

You okay?



I guess, yeah.

Good. But why did you join

that race in the first place?

You know Megatron isn't fast

enough to defeat Override.

He never would have

won the Planet Cup.

You only put yourself

in danger needlessly.

It wasn't Megatron

I was thinking of.

If we want the Planet Cup,

we're gonna have to defeat

Override sooner or later.

I just figured that

it was worth the risk

to try to win it

right here and now.

I don't know, Hotshot.

Ever since we got here,

you've been disobeying orders

and doing whatever you want.

I think you jumped into the race

just because you wanted

to prove that

you're faster than Override.

No way!

Well, that's what

it seemed like.

[GROWLS]

Are you going

to explain yourself?

Well?



Listen, Red Alert.

I'm gonna go talk

to Override,

and I'm gonna get

that Planet Cup

my own way, okay?

Wait! Hotshot!

Oh, that's just great.

Hotshot!

Is he gonna be okay?

I hope so.
