02x47 - You and I Bee-come One

[bunniefuu]

Grr!

We've got the extra socks,
a toothbrush,

travel-size death ray,
a pair of footie pyjamas...

Are you sure
you need all of this?

You'll only be at the villain
retreat for a week.

Well, you know my motto,
"Always be prepared."

Anyway, while I'm gone,

I don't want things
to be too easy on Sonic,

so I've got a special treat
for him and his dingbat friends.

Tickets to a musical
about people wanting to live

in an upscale city apartment
rent-free?

Even worse.
I've networked all my BeeBots.

Whenever they spot Team Sonic,
they'll automatically att*ck!

(Evil laugh)

Now, if you'll excuse me,
I've got some retreating to do.

The fun kind, not the "I've
just been defeated" kind.

Nothing like a brisk
-mile jog to start the day!

Huh?

Quit it!

Hey, g*ng.
Got a BeeBot situation out here.

You're not the only one!

I can't get any work done
on my transporter

with all these distractions!

And I can't work out.

Why do these things
always happen on leg day?

(Groans) Let's go find out
what Eggman wants from us.

Eggman! Call off your BeeBots,
you soft-boiled schnorrer!

Our apologies, but Dr Eggman is
away on very important business.

- Rat-a-tat-tat-tat-da!
- Hey!

Well, can you turn off
these BeeBots?

We don't have
the security clearance.

There's not much Dr Eggman
allows us to control.

We can adjust the thermostat!

(Alarm goes off)

(Commotion)

Guess we'll have to take care
of this infestation ourselves.

Ha!

All right!

Activate the force field... now!

- Think we got 'em all?
- Might be a few stragglers.

But how much trouble
could a single BeeBot cause?

Finally! My matter transporter
is finished!

Better do a test run,
just to be safe.

I heard Meh Burger removed
artificial dyes from their food.

Now their patties
are naturally grey.

Hey, guys!

- Aaah!
- Tails! What happened to you?

Is it that obvious? I was hoping
no one would notice.

Notice what?

So if your DNA
merged with the BeeBot,

maybe you can just go through
again and it'll reverse.

Whoa, whoa, whoa!
Let's try a control first.

Tails' inventions tend to be
a little "buggy".

(Chuckling)

Now let's see
if we can reverse it.

Something tells me Tails prefers

to keep his insides
on the inside.

(Sighs)

Join us... Join the hive...

Does anyone else
hear those voices?

You get used to it.
No you don't.

Speak for yourself.

Sorry. This whole thing's
giving me a headache.

- Ahem!
- What? Free pie!

Oh, we could really use another
technical genius right now.

Look, over there!
A solar eclipse!

Wait a sec.

You're not supposed to look
directly into a solar eclipse!

- You cheated.
- (Embarrassed laugh)

(Laughter)

I'm gonna be
stuck like this forever!

Tragedy struck today
when an avalanche hit the set

of big-budget action movie

Lord of the Things,
Return of the Bling.

Victims awaiting their snowy
doom include Tommy Thunder

and some other nobodies,
who probably have families,

- or whatever.
- Sorry, Tails.

Looks like your sci-fi nightmare
will have to wait.

Let's roll, g*ng!

Don't worry!
We are here to save...

you.

These new bee wings allow me
to fly much more precisely

than my tails ever did!

I'm better, stronger, faster!

Tails, you were great out there.

But now it's time
to get to work

so we can bring
the old you back.

Are you kidding?
I love being a bee!

I'll never again
need the crutch of science

- to make me interesting!
- Hang on, buddy.

Where's this coming from?

I finally understand
your attitude, Sonic.

It's OK to be a dimwit
if you have amazing powers.

That's what I've been saying!

(Mutters in his sleep)

Looks like one got away.

No!
It's me, your teammate, Tails!

- Ugh!
- He's not one of us!

- He's one of them!
- Join us... Join the hive...

(Gasps)

(Baby gurgling)

My baby!

- You got this, Tails!
- Not interested.

Survival of the fittest and all.

- Dude, what was that about?
- Honestly,

I'm surprised the kid
lasted this long.

That robo bee-brain
is infecting your mind!

You guys
just don't understand me.

Maybe it's time
I find some friends who do.

I've received your messages,
my worker bees.

Yes! Gather! Swarm!

For I am
the King of the BeeBots!

(Evil laugh)

(Buzzing)

Anybody else hear that?

Yes, my hive. Assemble!

Tails, what's come over you?

Gone is the useless fox
you all once knew.

I've finally realised
my true power!

I am one with the hive!

BeeBots, att*ck your captors!

Ah!

Ah!

Aaah!

Aaah!

Hold up, guys.
I think we're hurting him!

Fall back! It's time
to take some drastic measures.

- Eggman!
- (Shrieks)

Oh, for the love of...

What part of villains-only
retreat don't you understand?

Tails has merged with a BeeBot
and is leading a robot army!

Tough noogies. I'm on vacation.

Let me get this straight,
Egghead.

Someone swoops in
and takes control of your robots

- and you do nothing?
- (Chuckling)

Grr! All right, fine!

But let me just finish
this game of shuff... Whoa!

There! Now let's try a test run
on an inanimate object.

Something
every good scientist does

before experimenting
on a living thing.

Yeah!

Bring in Tails, so I can
get back for the talent show.

You won't believe what I can do
with hard-boiled eggs.

We don't
actually have Tails yet.

Don't worry. I know
a great way to draw him out.

This is so humiliating.

Just a regular
old sunflower over here.

Come gaze upon my (Deep sigh)
soft, supple petals.

You won't get away this time,
you flightless ficus!

I'm not a ficus,
I'm a sunflower.

What kinda bee are you?

Aaah!

Quit your dilly-dallying!
Get to smashing!

We can't! Every time we att*ck
the BeeBots, it hurts Tails!

Of course, because of their
interconnected bee network!

You can weaken him by taking out
more hive members!

You'll have to pay
for each destroyed BeeBot,

but I'll send you
an invoice later.

So you're saying the only way
to help Tails is to smash stuff?

I prefer to resolve conflict
with words, but if you insist...

(Battle cry)

Tails!

OK, Eggman, get him back
to the way he used to... be.

Yah!

Whoa! What happened? And why
are you dressed like a daffodil?

It's a sunflower! And I had to
dress like this to rescue you.

I just wanted to see you
in an embarrassing costume.

The BeeBots were programmed
to target you regardless!

That's rich. (Whistles)

Grr!

It's great to have you back,
Tails!

And I think we all learned
a valuable lesson today.

- And what lesson was that?
- I dunno.

Don't turn into a bee
or something?

- (Murmuring)
- I say that all the time.
