can use them for evil.

It is our mission.

ANNOUNCER:

Race fans!

The engines are screamin',

the track is on fire,

and the race is on!

Override.

She's the real deal.

The sleek red racer was

expected to lead the race

and she's delivering.

[THINKING]

One of the Autobots must

manage to qualify in this race.

That may be our only chance

to get this planet's

Cyber Planet Key.

Hey, Override.

Objects in the rearview mirror

are faster than

they appear.

All right!

He took the lead!

Go, Hotshot, go!

Hot stuff

comin' through.

[LAUGHS]

Oh, Hotshot.

[♪♪♪]

If your engine were as fast as

your mouth, you might catch me!

ANNOUNCER:

It's Override, Hotshot

and Dirt Boss.

Check it out. They all took

that corner super-fast!

ANNOUNCER:

We are talkin' speed.

[♪♪♪]

Yeah, speed.

One can only imagine.

Right now, I'd settle

for just moving.

Bumper-to-bumper traffic.

Exhaust fumes.

You and your city, Lori.

You know what?

The city is--

Is the best!

Fast food, shopping,

book stores, shopping,

art galleries, ball parks.

Everything is here!

BUD:

Our town has everything:

mountains, clear streams,

fresh air and not

an espresso for miles.

LORI:

Exactly.

You just made my point.

[♪♪♪]

Hotshot, do you read me?

Hotshot?

I read you, sir.

But I'm kinda busy.

OPTIMUS:

I want a status report.

Any problems?

Not as long as my clutch

doesn't pop.

and I can stay in high gear,

I'll keep up. I mean, uh...

Don't worry, Hotshot.

I have confidence in you.

[♪♪♪]

This big guy's

a wide load.

He's blockin'

the whole track.

A m*ssile to the bumper

will move him.

RED ALERT:

Cyber Key Power!

Activate weapons!

[SIREN WAILING]

Hey, what's with

all the racket?

I think we're getting

speeding tickets.

Desist any plans

to att*ck that vehicle.

LANDMINE:

If you don't, there won't be

enough left of you to recycle.

RANSACK:

We're all about

the three Rs.

CRUMPLEZONE:

You Goody Two-shoes

can't sh**t us in the back.

We don't want no trouble.

Just go on past us.

So we can sh**t you

in the back.

ANNOUNCER:

Uh-oh. Someone's playing rough.

Was that an expl*si*n?

What's going on back there?

Don't worry about it.

Go catch Override.

That's an order.

Understand, Hotshot?

Yes, sir.

Yee-haw!

[♪♪♪]

[♪♪♪]

[ALL WHIMPER]

JOLT:

My data says there's

an item with this marking

located somewhere

in that building.

Okay, then let's ask someone

in that building.

Ah! Vector Prime said

this is a secret mission.

Well, where's

that leave us?

[CHUCKLES]

My brains and stealth

make me a perfect spy.

Huh?



Say what?

Jolt, you're Double O Zero.

Double O Zero?

That's your

spy code name.

Yeah!



[GROANS]

[♪♪♪]

[ALL PANTING]

Hey, you meddlin' kids!

Stop right there!

[GIGGLES]

Good going,

Double O Negative.

[IN ACCENT]

It's all part of the game,

Miss Pennymoney.

Ugh.



I said, stop!

[PANTING]

This ain't worth

minimum wage.

Phew.

LORI:

Okay, Super Spy Sleuth,

tell me.

Where is the item?

My theory is that

the item is in a room.

[SARCASTICALLY]

That's brilliant.

How do you do it, Sherlock?

It'll be simple, now that

we've ditched that guard.

[♪♪♪]

Hmm...

Gah! My spy senses tell me

this is the wrong way.

Hey, you!

[♪♪♪]

[♪♪♪]

It's time we blow the doors

off these guys.

Wait, you mean

drive past them

or sh**t missiles

at their doors?

Are you street punks

up to no good again?

Oh, it's all good.

Ransack, Transform!

How about a little warning?

What now?

The annoying

little one

is using the big dumb one

as a surfboard.

Huh?



Huh?

Excuse me?

Hey, hey.

Check this one out,

you Auto-dopes.

It's a spring!

BOTH:

Whoa!

Yee-haw!

A perfect !

There's good

and then there's me.

[COUGHING]

Punk.

Eat smoke, big man.

ANNOUNCER:

My, my, my.

The hometown hooligans

are dastardly disrupting

this righteous race.

What's fly guy's

problem?

Eh, everyone's

a critic.

Hmm!



They're nothing to worry about.

We'll keep

an eye on them.

Optimus,

I'm gonna help too.

Clocker, get back here!

Sorry.

Sometimes he forgets

he's a kid. Clocker!

Breakdown, right now,

we all need to be cautious.

[♪♪♪]

[♪♪♪]

Hoo! Them boys are

tearin' it up out there.

Are you seein'

this here, Starscream?

I'm sure it's a hoot.

[THINKING]

What a bunch of misfits!

Go and toil to

your heart's content,

but get that Cyber Planet Key

and get it soon!

Starscream.

Ah, Megatron.

Starscream, tell me about

our progress on Speed Planet.

Yes, sir, I was about

to contact you.

Right. I want you to go

to Speed Planet

and assist

my two minions.

I don't think so.

What was that?

First off, I can't

change into a car,

so what good would I be

on a racing planet?

To be honest, I have my hands

full with matters here on Earth.

Hmm.

Starscream,

are you sure you wanna

talk to the boss

like that?

He looked like

he was gonna serve you up

and eat you

for breakfast.

So let him fume!

Maybe it's time the servant

became the master.

Hey, now. This is about

to get interesting.

Very interesting.

[CHUCKLES]

[♪♪♪]

ANNOUNCER:

The racers are hitting

dizzying speeds.

And Override is still

handling the twists

like a pretzel maker.

But if you wanna see twisted,

check out

the gruesome twosome.

How is this a good idea?

You rode on my back,

and now I get to ride on yours.

Fair is fair.

RANSACK:

Hey, watch your big rump!

Has Crumplezone

overheated

and mistaken Ransack

for his little red wagon?

What are those two up to?

Aw, man.

My friends are watchin'.

[♪♪♪]

[HORNS HONKING]

[SIRENS WAILING]



Sirens?

What's with these humans,

anyway?

They are one bunch

of disorderly cats, huh?

[♪♪♪]

They put up traffic lights

but then don't stop.

I just can't

wrap my mind around it.

Humans got no sense.

[♪♪♪]

Huh? What's this?

Thundercracker, Transform!



Starscream, Transform!

[HONKING]

Hey. Watch it.

Mudflap, Transform!

You want a piece of me,

mon amis?

[SNICKERING]

Hey, Starscream.

This guy's about as neighborly

as a hungry Tigatron.

[♪♪♪]

ANNOUNCER:

The racing's still hot, folks.

We've got Override, Dirt Boss,

Hotshot, and the clown cars.

Sorry, Dirt Boss,

but it's time to pass you by.

You ain't got the pistons

for that, boy.

RANSACK:

Burn!

Ha. Pistons.

Huh? I don't get

the joke.

Too many big words?

They don't

like us, CZ.

Oh, too bad.

Why are you two g*ons

in this race, anyway?

Just out for a spin.

Like this!

BOTH:

Whoa!

[SNICKERS]

Hey, Crumplezone,

get exhausted!

I've been holding that in.

RANSACK:

Later!

Feeling dizzy! So dizzy!

Can't stop...

But if I can just upshift

and keep momentum...

[GRUNTS]

Yes!

LANDMINE:

Hotshot?

You okay?

I'm back on track, guys.

Is he lucky

or just that good?

It won't matter,

big guy.

We know this track,

and we'll get him.

No one knocks Dirt Boss

out of a race!

[♪♪♪]

I don't know what you want,

but now you got a problem.

Try this for kicks.

[SNICKERS]

[THINKING]

I expected more.

[ROARING]

Cyber Key Power!

[♪♪♪]

Hey, now.

Laugh at this!

Watch where you

swing that thing.

I'm putting

my best foot forward.

Close but no cigar.

Here's the thunder.

No! That's enough.

But I was winnin'.

Come on.

You never let me finish

when I'm actually winning.

Hmph!

Ooh, give me a reason.

[♪♪♪]

Hmm. I'm impressed

with your mettle,

and I believe you shall

make a fine Decepticon.

Huh? Decepticon?

Friend,

ask yourself,

why is Optimus Prime

so concerned with humans?

Shouldn't the focus

be on us?

Do you enjoy a life in disguise,

suffering humans?

No, I don't.

Just join with me,

and then you will no longer

have to worry about

trivial human problems.

But you are evil,

so is Megatron.

That, Mudflap, is an

unfortunate misunderstanding.

The Decepticons and the Autobots

want the same thing.

We all live

in the same universe.

We're trying to save it

with a more direct method.

Hmm...

You know I'm right.

We should come first.

Forget the humans. I'll join.

Welcome aboard, partner.

Reckon a big fella

like you will be

quite a boon

to the organization.

Let me give you

the nickel tour of the ranch.

Climb on.

Thundercracker, Transform!

[GRUNTING]

Whoa!

You ain't no feather.

You can lose weight by

switching to unleaded.

So begins the fall

of Megatron.

[LAUGHING SINISTERLY]

[♪♪♪]

How many times

do I have to say it? Stop!

Stop, stop, stop!

These hallways

all look alike.

[GROWLS]

[PANTING]

[BOTH PANTING]

Phew, I thought

we'd never ditch him.

Hm?

Huh, Lori?

Look at this mess.

It's worse than my room.

I wonder what kind

of person works here?

Hmm, I'd say a man

in his s

who has a rebellious

streak to him.

You're a spy

and a profiler?

I've learned from

the best cops on TV.

[KNOB TURNING]



[BOTH GASP]

[GASPS] Gotta hide.



[GASPS] Where? This way.

[HUMMING]

[THINKING]

Exactly as Bud profiled.

[GASPS]

Ugh. Fiddlesticks.

Paper towels. I think

they're in the supply closet.

[BOTH YELL]

[GASPS]

Hey, there,

how you doing?

Ah, it's nice

to meet you.

It's n-nice to meet you too.

[♪♪♪]

Okay, Bud and Lori,

what were you up to?

It's not every day I find kids

in my supply closet.

We're on an important

secret mission.

Ha! By important, he means

high school research paper.

And by secret mission, uh,

don't worry,

he's just goofy in the head.

Wait. Hold on.

BOTH:

Huh?

Then I guess you came

to the right place.

I'm Professor Lucy Suzuki.

Cool.



Just remember what secret means.

Yeah, I hear you.

LORI:

Wow. Some of these things

are metal.

Don't you think

that's kind of advanced

for ancient cultures?

Yes, it's a mystery.

Hey, doc?

What's with this gear?

That piece has been dated

at , years old.

Yes, it's a mystery.

Mmm-hmm.



Uh, ix-nay, Bud.

Many of my colleagues

make fun of me,

but I believe that long ago,

alien beings visited the Earth.

That's cool and you think

this was part of the aliens?

A part of the aliens?

Well, he doesn't mean

part of a machine

like they were robots

or anything.

I didn't?



Thanks for putting up with us.

Sorry to take up so much

of your precious time.

But the clue?

Come on, Bud,

we should get out of her way.

Uh, kids?

[RINGING]

Hello, Professor Suzuki.

Huh, someone from the government

is here to see me?

Yes. He says

it can't wait.

[♪♪♪]

Mission accomplished.

What're you talking about?

JOLT:

Think about it, Lori.

You did find the item

you went in there

to check out.

BUD:

Right on, Jolt.

JOLT:

Actually, let me tell you

that your next mission

is to discover

the clay-doll of a dinosaur.

It's in South America, right?

Hear that, Lori?

Get moving, soldier.

Huh? You're ordering me?

You are not

the boss of me, Bud!

I'm going, but not because

you said so, got that?

BUD:

Ugh!

[♪♪♪]

ANNOUNCER:

With Override

way up in front,

the others are grouped together

and pacing each other.

Those two will

do something soon.

Autobots, be prepared.

Understood?

ALL:

Yes, sir.

[♪♪♪]

Hey, how about some warning?

Just a little off the top.

Everyone stop.

They've destroyed the bridge.

OPTIMUS:

Hotshot!

I've got a long way to go

and a short time

to get there.

It's impossible. Even at

top speed, it's just too far.

Those two buffoons

cut the bridge!

Time for the road

less traveled.

Boo-yah!

[GRUNTING]

Time to cover

some ground.

[GROANS]

I wish I could hear them.

Hey, why aren't Hotshot and

Optimus Prime slowing down any?

I really don't know.

I can only wonder

what Optimus Prime is thinking.

And hope he's got a plan

and that they do it soon.

Is the plan

perfectly clear?

I can do this. But what

happens to you? I mean--

Don't worry, just get

back in the race.

ANNOUNCER:

Oh, race fans,

I don't think I can watch.

[CROWD EXCLAIMING]

Yes. I think I see

what Optimus is planning.

Here goes nothing!

Jump!



Woo-hoo! Yeah!

Sweet!

Optimus Prime, Transform!

You know we're counting

on you, Hotshot.

All right!

Did you see that? Amazing!

Oh, yeah, I saw it.

It was so incredible...

I think I need me

an oil change.

LANDMINE:

Okay, troops,

we're rollin' out too.

ALL:

Yes, sir.

[♪♪♪]

[SIGHS]

No one behind us.

And ahead

just open road.

DIRT BOSS:

Hey, cheaters!

BOTH:

Uh-oh.

Think you can cheat me?

Excuse me while I get

the dirt out of my treads.

Lousy cheaters.

Agh, I'm gonna feel

that for days.

Big jerk,

thinkin' he can-- Oof!

That was Hotshot.

How'd he jump that gap?

Ugh!



Oof! Oh, come on!

No one behind us.

Open road ahead.

[♪♪♪]

ANNOUNCER:

We have a winner!

Override, Transform!

ANNOUNCER:

Override!

As if there was anyone else

that was gonna win this race!

ANNOUNCER:

As we expected, Override wins!

She is one fast lady.

Hotshot didn't win.

Are we in trouble?

Chillax, Coby. As long as

he finishes in the top three,

he qualifies and survives the

other prelims before the final.

ANNOUNCER:

The battle for

number two is on.

It's Dirt Boss with Hotshot

nipping at his tailgate.

If I can't win,

I can still come in second.

Time to turn up

the heat!

Cyber Key Power!

[♪♪♪]

Look out, Dirt Boss.

Here comes trouble.

Crud!

ANNOUNCER:

It's...

Hotshot then Dirt Boss.

They both qualify.

All right!

Hotshot did it.

Uh-huh. Uh-huh.

Well done, Hotshot.

[CROWD CHEERING]

[CROWD BOOING]

Aw, man,

they're booing.

Yeah, it leaves me

feeling flat.

[♪♪♪]

[♪♪♪]

OVERHAUL:

Scourge. Turn around when

I'm talking to you.

Scourge, I beseech you. Hear

what this traveler has to say.

[GROWLS]

Go on, Overhaul.

You're givin' me

the Cyber Planet Key.

[GROWLS]

Relate to him

the situation.

Well, it's simple.

There's a black hole

coming to

destroy everything,

but I can stop it

if you hand over the Key.

Are you listening?

Hey! We ain't finished here!

Just who do you think

you're talking to?

Please, confrontation

achieves nothing.

I'm talking to you,

Scourge.

And you're gonna give me

that Cyber Key.

Oh, no.

If there's something you want

from me, off-worlder,

then take it.

If that's the way you want it.
