01x34 - The Human Element

[bunniefuu]

[Applause]

previously on transformers it's megatron

my name is jellybetron i took energy

from the sparks of my predacons which

combined with the energy of the pyramid

next to my revenge is a deceptive god

now nothing can stop me

i returned for what i thought would be

our greatest victory but the autobots

defeated us again

if maximus had obeyed you as you said he

would the autobots would have been

destroyed what went wrong the

programming of the robot's brain

cerebros is extremely complex so far we

haven't determined exactly what happened

i see then you shall continue your

investigation and correct the problem

gaining control of fortress maximus is

vital to my plans do not fail me sir i

am your most loyal servant failure is

not an option

i couldn't be better sir

[Music]

if i could figure out how to control

fortress maximus galvatron will give me

the respect i deserve there must be a

way to find the answers he's looking for

now let me see

of course i'll simply conduct a little

investigation of my own

in order to control fortress maximus we

must first control cerebros which means

finding a way to alter or delete his

command block program

there's an alternative deception

we must discover the one whose commands

he will obey and then deceive maximus by

mimicking that biosignature could it be

optimus prime no not optimus not any

autobot he obeyed a human and boy the

one they call koji

stop maximus what you're doing is wrong

you have the spark of an autobot

he may have stopped because of a

malfunction perhaps a circuit overload

how can you be certain he was obeying

the human

when cerebros responded to my command my

energy resonated with his but when i

commanded fortress maximus i felt

another energy within him which blocked

my own

the other presence i felt in fortress

maximus was human and koji was the only

human there but how did he do it could

he have some sort of special power he

seems like a normal human

yes braver than most but normal

nonetheless and yet he controlled the

most powerful robot on earth

and we've got to find out why maximus

obeyed him

yes

very interesting

a normal human of course i never

considered the simplest explanation of

all

cerebros what is the current location of

fortress maximus

[Music]

planet earth sector 18

exact coordinates unknown

[Music]

now

i've spotted something i'm not sure what

it is but it doesn't look like a natural

formation sounds promising check it out

roger i'm going in for a closer look

increasing magnification

fortress maximus all right no doubt of

that we found it

[Music]

how's it coming ty well i've got a lot

more work to do but i've got part of the

answer answer to what

ty's trying to figure out why fortress

maximus stopped when you told him to

scourge thought he could control maximus

by pretending to be optimus

he made an invalid assumption that

maximus would follow your orders hmm

go on ty he was able to fool cerebros

but once cerebros joined with fortress

maximus his recognition program was much

more powerful so he compared frequencies

when scourges didn't match the one he's

programmed to obey he refused him access

but he obeyed koji does that mean that

cody is part of max miss's programming

that seems highly unlikely true but

maybe he responded to koji because koji

has some kind of special power or

something oh that's silly

i'm not special i'm just me exactly

each of us is special in one way or

another and i think you've got something

that's a little extra special

that's nice of you to say sideburn

but i don't feel more special than

anyone else sideburn i'm certain that

there's a scientific explanation then

why was koji the only one maximus had

listened to if koji hadn't stopped him

the whole city could have been destroyed

maybe sideburns right really cool

nonsense there's no evidence to support

such an outlandish theory

what's going on

there's some kind of decepticon activity

going on in sector 18.

i should have known that's where we

found maximus

we have to get there asap roger

optimus listen koji and i would like to

go with you i'm sorry doctor but the

answer is no it's much too dangerous i'm

not scared of scourging his g*ng and you

may need my help if koji is the only one

that fortress maximus will obey then

you've got to take him along the earth's

safety is at stake please optimus it

will be dangerous but this is their

world optimus i think they should have

the right to defend it don't you as a

matter of fact i do

when cybertron was in danger nothing

could have stopped me from fighting to

protect it very well doctor you're

coming with us but i want you both in

close proximity to one of the autobot

brothers at all times right understood

let's roll out roger

try to remember how you controlled

maximus all i remember is trying really

hard to get him to understand me and

then it was like a door open and we were

connected

maximus what you're doing is wrong you

were sent here to protect not destroy

you're one of us one of the good guys

you have the spark of an autobot

[Music]

i had the strangest feeling that he was

inside my head and could tell what i was

thinking uh-huh interesting

but that doesn't explain how i did it

maybe sideburn's right and i have some

kind of special power koji being able to

eat three cheeseburgers at one meal is

your special power

you do have unique abilities everyone

does but no human has the kind of power

that sideburn was talking about there's

got to be a rational explanation for

what happened we just haven't found it

yet yeah i guess

[Music]

move on we found him join us in sector

18. by now autobots know we're here when

they arrive our large friends here will

give them a warm welcome

i overheard everything scourge said

but i still don't get how he expects to

control that things

[Music]

well whatever it is we'll stop him come

on guys it's show time

look maximus he hasn't been activated

yet what good will it do scourge to

activate a maximus won't obey him if

that's true then why is he here

i don't think scourge and his buddies

came all the way out here to enjoy the

view

scourge

optimus we both know that fortress

maximus won't obey you so what are you

doing here you'll find out soon enough

optimus now if you'll excuse me mega

octane

but i'll bet your optimus

won't come

[Music]

demolition blaster

aren't you forgetting something one of

us has to stay with cody and his father

and we agreed that it would be you

remember that's not fair let's go right

wait

sorry about that sideburn

don't worry about it i'm fine it's an

honor being your bodyguard you and your

dad are two of earth's most valuable

assets looks like you can use a hand

thanks keep ruination busy i'll go after

skirt roger

double demolition

oh no ruination stop them cold

come on optimus let's go get these guys

stop wasting time skirt what are you

doing here what do you want life orders

maximus of course you see optimus when i

was scanning that tanker truck i

received input from three sources

simultaneously megatron's programming

your autobot spark

and last but not least the bio energy of

the truck's human passenger

what

thanks to your friend koji i realize

that maximus obeys humans and amplified

the human part of my bio frequency 100

fools fortress maximus

activate all systems send horse cerebros

and the emissary

[Music]

transform

foreign

[Music]

[Music]

[Applause]

fortress maximus you will obey me and me

alone now kneel fortress maximus and

open your command module

[Music]

rise fortress maximus

i've done it fortress maximus is mine

congratulations scourge we decepticons

now control the most powerful robot on

earth the autobots are doomed yes i will

vanquish my enemies and then i will pay

my respects to galvatron

but first the autobots

forward fortress maximus smash the

autobots destroy them all

[Music]

one step for maximus one giant leap for

the decepticons

i can't believe it skurge figured out

how to make maximus obey his orders as

long as he's in there there's no way to

get to him what are we gonna do optimus

there must be a way there's got to be

scourge has succeeded which means that

galvatron will just keep on ignoring me

i'm a bad shark

they need me out there what should i do

they don't have a chance of stopping

maximus without me but i told him i'd

stay here with you

listen sideburn i stopped him before i

can do it again huh

but i'll have to be closer so he'll be

able to hear me when i order him to stop

gotcha you just leave it to me

transform

come on hop in

right

no coachy wait it's too dangerous if i

don't it'll be the end of the autobots

the autobots can take care of themselves

they don't want you to get hurt he's

right but cody's right too

what am i gonna do

hike down william oh from magnus man am

i glad to see you you got here just in

time i was taking a nap but your whining

was so loud it woke me up what's your

problem sideburn figures you're sleeping

while the rest of us are trying to stop

fortress maximus

so scourge has managed to get control of

him again huh

you stay here with these two optimus and

i can handle this

looks like you could use a little help

optimus i think it's time for omega

prime to make an appearance don't you as

a matter of fact i do

combined

[Music]

he's all yours excellent i can destroy

optimus and ultra magnus at the same

time

i'm going to enjoy this

so am i

forward fortress maximus destroy omega

prime

[Music]

armor piercing salvo

i need more firepower

[Music]

a direct hit with the most powerful

weapons in my arsenal and there's not a

mark on him

scourge is winning sideburn we've got to

go now get in

no koji don't go

i'm sorry dad but i've got to no matter

how dangerous it is the autobots need my

help to stop that monster when you

stopped him before scourge wasn't

controlling him from the command module

he won't listen to you now

i've got to try

[Applause]

supercharged

maximus these autobots are your friends

don't hurt them

the real enemy is inside you the boy is

trying to control him but my amplified

human biofrequency is a hundred times

more powerful than his

i don't think he can hear me from here

sideburn get closer you gotta listen to

me maximus not this time huh forward

maximus destroy the autobahn of his

passenger

oh no he's not responding i'm having no

effect

nothing can stop me

dad was right all along it's hopeless i

don't have any special power

if somebody doesn't stop scourge you'll

destroy the autobots

i've got it

this is onishi calling tai

yes doctor i believe i know how to stop

scourge and regain control of fortress

maximus so listen carefully i know this

will sound like a strange request but

it's the only way i'll help in any way i

can

i'll try again if we can get within a

couple of feet of him maybe he'll listen

closer sideburn closer that's it he's

gotta listen i'll crush them like

insecticons

[Music]

goji

[Music]

thanks for saving me again

it was an accident a fluke a finn a

flounder no if cathertron finds out i

state you again

i don't even want to think about it

nice to see you sky bite thanks again

what does it matter if the boy survives

he can't possibly match the power of my

bio energy lower fortress maximus

i thought i could help i thought i could

get him to listen to me but i guess i

just wasn't strong enough

it isn't over yet son

what scourge amplified the power of his

human bio energy a hundred times that of

a normal human to gain control of

maximus so we need to generate an even

stronger bioenergy signal of human

origin in order to override his control

yeah but how

[Music]

[Music]

what are they doing here

everyone you know what you're here for

but it won't work unless maximus hears

you so yell as loud as you can

all right let's do this with you all the

way doctor all right on your mark get

set and go

you're here to protect the earth

[Music]

asked me to send a thousand children

into the desert i thought he lost his

marbles but as it turned out he was

right all along time to finish this

listen to me spurge either you the

decepticons not galvatron will ever

overcome the power of the human race

forward maximus he's not going anywhere

omega blister

let's get out of here

[Music]

you and your puny human friends may have

won this battle to make a cry but one

day

he drives you into dust i promise you

i'm sorry i disobeyed you dad i really

thought i could help but you were right

i don't have any special powers

i was the one who put that idea into

your head koji

i'm sorry

that's okay

listen son

you made me very proud today you were

willing to risk everything for your

friends

your loyalty and your courage and the

goodness in your heart

are very special powers indeed never

forget that

we can't let galvatron win but as long

as he's got cerebros he might find a way

of controlling maximus and then the

whole earth would be in danger what are

we going to do sooner or later we're

going to find a way to get cerebros back

koji we'll rid this planet of galvatron

and his g*ng of evildoers i promise you

your world is under our protection now

and as long as we work as a team humans

and autobots together the enemies of

earth will never win never
