Morocco Memoirs, bonus entry.

Yes, 'bonus' because, through skill and sheer defiance, I have survived the Rescue Bots' latest attempt to vanquish me.

A bit of backstory, if I may.


( snaps )
I exist only as a computer virus, programmed by my creator to spread and continue his mission.

I built a new version of the MorBot to defeat my enemies Then learned that advanced technology existed that could make my robot faster, stronger, and more powerful.

Hm, unfortunately, it was being safeguarded in three separate locations by members of the far
-flung Rescue Team.

Griffin Rock's lab was easy to raid.

But getting to the other two required using the Rescue Bots' own GroundBridge.

Technology acquired, I made my triumphant return to the Mainland Center.

The Rescue Bots, however, arranged for a noisy reception.


( rhythmic beeping )

( expl*si*n )
Despite what those would
-be heroes believe, this act of sabotage failed I still exist.

And I have laid claim to this Training Center, including its master computer
( buzzing )
its 3
-D Printer and the designs for a Scrubber bot, which now includes all three upgrade modules.

Morocco Memoirs, supplemental entry.

The Master Computer is teaching my growing cadre of Scrubbers how to repair the GroundBridge.

In the meantime I'm running a full system analysis on myself, hoping to answer one nagging question Why are the Rescue Bots so much better at everything than I am? What do they have that I don't? One nagging question answered.

Each Rescue Bot has a "mind"! Therefore, I will now give my MorBot the keenest brain available.

Mine.


( electricity crackling )

( engine revving )

( thrumming )
Oh, yes.

Splendid fit.

And the start of a new day
( thuds )

( jingles )

( squeaks )

( Morocco
-bot laughing )
CODY: Maybe we can go a little faster? Yeah? Well maybe you ought to try driving in this fog.

Really? Sure! No
-no
-no
-whoa
-whoa
-whoa
-whoa, throttle back, Code.

In case you haven't noticed, it takes a certain level of skill and maturity to handle a boat Witness.

Uh, Captain Chin
-Dimple? I've been doing the steering since we left Griffin Rock.

Let Cody try.

And if I say no? Then I'd say this:
( engine revs )
Aah! All right all right! Thanks, Kade.

This is good practice for when I get my own Rescue Bot.

Yeah? You can have this one.

DANI: Hey family! Okay, not to sound ungrateful, but when do you think you'll get the 'Bridge working again? Yeah.

I know blowing it up was the only way to take out the MorBot, but Chase's getting homesick.

Tell my partner we'll see him soon.

Doc thinks the Bridge will be an easy fix.

CODY: There.

Not too bad! Thanks to Heatwave.

Nope, Cody did it all on his own.

He's a natural! HEATWAVE: Okay, let's take care of the Bridge.

The sooner the better.

You miss the other Bots too, huh? Oh no
( clangs )
They're fixing the GroundBridge? Where'd those Scrubbers come from? It can't be We got rid of him!
( thudding )
Yes it can.

And no you didn't.

No way.

That MorBot looks just like Morocco! I think it is Morocco The computer virus, anyway.

You uploaded yourself into that thing? Surprise! Now I'm just like you! That'll be the day.

Oh, scrubbers seize them!
( clanging )
Heatwave! The sonic cannons!
( buzzing then expl*si*n )

( alarm beeps )

( Sonic Canons f*ring )

( explosions )
Even as a pretend Autobot, you don't have what it takes to win.

BOTH: Aah! He may have a point.

Why do I continue to fail? What do I lack that the Rescue Bots possess? Heatwave! The sonic cannons! Of course
( rhythmic beeping )
Cody, please tell your FireBot thank you for his suggestion.

What suggestion? "To have what it takes to win.

" I realize, I must acquire one more component.

A human partner.


( gasps )
Someone with wisdom beyond his years and experience inside every Rescue Bot.

Join me, Cody Burns! What? Never! I'll never help you! We shall see.

Don't worry, Code.

We're not gonna let him get you.

Yeah.

Just let him try.

BARANOVA
( on monitor )
: With the virus now controlling the Morocco
-Bot, it will stop at nothing to achieve its goal.

Which includes going after Cody? Not as long as I'm around.

Anna, it appears Morocco is using your hive
-mind patch to control the Scrubbers.

Then I can also find a way to shut them down.

I'll start immediately.

Baranova out.

I don't feel right being this far from home, Dad.

Cody needs us.

High Tide and Quickshadow can keep the peace here in Faxian.

Blades and I are on our way.

Right.

Nobody messes with our Cody! No way no How are we getting to Griffin Rock exactly? We fly, Blades.

I mean there has to be something in this high tech town that'll give us a rocket boost.

A little rocket boost, right?
( Blades screaming )
BOULDER: Ah, the redwoods.

I'm inspired to paint another landscape.

This time try paintin' a road through it.

I miss roads.

And perhaps add a speeding vehicle.

Ah, how I miss the thrill of the pursuit.

There'll be roads and speeders through here soon enough.

And buildings, and crazy tech to chase down.

You're right.

Let's enjoy the quiet while we can.

Team, our help is needed.

Oh thank the Allspark.

I can finally flex my treads.

We're at your disposal.

Where to? Morocco thinks he's a Bot, took over the Training Center with an army of Scrubbers, and wants to steal Cody as a driver?! All while we were out hiking.

Evil never rests.

Then we put it down for a nap.

My virus
-blocker can stop Morocco's control of the Scrubbers.

We simply need to plug it into the Training Center's mainframe.

Terrible plan.

Doc Moroc will be waiting for us as soon as we step out of the Bridge.

Not if you drive it there.

Beautiful plan! Hand it over.

I'm going with you.

And we're back to terrible plan.

Once you get into the Training Center, open the GroundBridge.

We'll be waiting to join you.

BLURR: Okay
-bye! So what's the plan, Chief?
( elevator working )

( dramatic theme playing )
Whoa.

Wow.

Noble When the GroundBridge opens, we'll be ready for them.

No one's comin' through without getting seriously foamed!
( Servo growls )
And bitten.

The return of Rescue Girl? Noble! Desperate times call for desperate measures.

I got your back, CB! How 'bout we all gear up? Morocco and his Scrubbers could walk on through at any time.

SALVAGE
( over PA )
: I don't think that's gonna happen Better come see this.


( whooshing )

( whooshing continues )
Cody, you and Frankie get upstairs to the Command Center.

Watch from there.

But where will you guys be? Meeting him on the beach.

If the Scrubbers or Morocco get past us, hide in the tunnels.

Both of you.

What's left of the Team let's Roll to the Rescue! Anna my sweet, are you making good time?
( engine revving )
We're going as fast as humanly possible.

Maybe a little faster.


( Blurr chuckling )
Splendid.

Because we'll need your Virus Blocker very soon.

Morocco is coming by sea, and he's almost here.

Better pick up the pace, then.


( sonic boom )

( Baranova yells )
Bye, Ezra.

Remember me fondly.

Relax, Professor.

My name's Blurr, not Crash.


( laughs )

( revs )
CODY: Here they come! att*ck!
( g*nshots )
Hurry! SERVO: Woo
-hoo!
( growling )

( clangs )

( grunts )
Man these Scrubbers don't give up! They're like something else that doesn't give up! Good thing the cavalry's here! Yeah!
( clanging )
Blades and Dani! Way to go! Blades, try shutting down MoroccoBot with your new power
-up! If he's controlling the Scrubbers, it'll stop them, too.

You got it, little bro! That Doc is droppin' like a rock! Power up and energize! EMP Away!
( crackling )
It was just a hologram! And I wasted an EMP blast on it.

Not to mention a great rhyme.

Everybody see that? Morocco's not even here.

What's he up to? BLURR: Woo
-hoo
-hoo!
( Baranova screams )

( tires screeching )

( clanging, whirring )

( engine revs )
Oh, look who came to play with the big Bots! Blurr, just go around him! Ah, you can't expect me to bail on a game of chicken!
( revving engine )
This is no time to prove who has less brains.

We have an army to stop! Ahh, fine!
( tires screeching )
Whatcha got under that hood? Squirrels? I so detest show
-offs!
( crashes )
Dear heavens!
( clanging )
Only one reason you'd bring Professor Baranova here.

Protect the Mainframe! You got this, Lady B? Indeed, Speedy B.


( w*apon fires )
Ezra and I are frequent visitors to the skeet sh**ting club! Gotta take another run at it! First get me to the GroundBridge!
( revving )
In case you hadn't noticed, you're outnumbered.


( grunts )
I volunteer at CeCe's infant gymnastics class, as well.

Graham, now!
( clangs )
Oh how weary, stale, flat, and unprofitable Clean up this mess, you worthless Scrubbers! Doc, I need more foam! Sorry, I'm all out!
( sighs )
Me, too.


( EMP g*n fires )
Nice sh**ting! But this needs three minutes to recharge every time.

Keep them all busy for another half hour! They must be headed to the Firehouse.

Hurry! Kids, get to the tunnels, now! Yes, Dad.

Yeah! And down goes the hammer!
( grunts )
Professor, the flashdrive!
( grunts )

( beeps )
Warning.

Virus Blocker detected.

Operating system under att*ck.

I repeat Oh, blast.

Yes! Signed, sealed, and long
-distance delivered! Doctor Morocco, I am placing you under Where is he? He went through the Bridge It's set for Griffin Rock!
( clanging )
The Virus Blocker! They did it!
( clanging )
Frankie, look! Stopped 'em cold! Yes!
( thudding )

( crashing )
Congratulations, Cody Burns.

You won yourself a new set of wheels! Aah! No! Cody!
( muffled yelling )

( muffled yelling )
Clever man, that Doctor Morocco.

He has Cody!
( grunting )
Let me out of here! Be still, young ruffian!
( grunting )
Fine.

We'll do this the hard way.


( strange beeping )
That sound! It's from those phones that that That put you under my control.

Blades, the EMP? Charged and ready.

CODY
( over radio )
: I have accepted the Morocco
-Bot's offer and become his driver.

Please do not try to stop me.

sh**t! Don't waste a recharge! Take a deep breath! I am.

I will.

I won't, okay! Gotcha!
( revving )
Do not let him off this island! And no damage! Cody's in there!
( engines revving, siren wailing )
Well that's a fine stinky kettle of ammonium sulfide!
( whirring )
If we can get them to the ocean, we can escape them underwater.

Excellent strategy.

I knew I made the right choice.

Together, we shall be unstoppable! They're heading east on Oh, oh, wait Uh, now west.

East again Cody knows these streets.

What is he doing?
( siren wailing )
They're trying to get to the water!
( engine revs )
Cody! Cody.

This is my ride.

Get out! This is not your vehicle! Dad wouldn't let me have my own Rescue Bot.

But Doctor Morocco did.

Oh it's true.

My generosity is legendary.

Now do as you've been told and shove off!
( gasps )
The phone! Cody, you're you're hypnotized! You and I are best friends, you know that.

She's your enemy.

Pay her no mind! If we're enemies, why would you give me this for my birthday? Look more closely.

Do you remember it? Yes.

So? So it does this!
( high pitched buzzing )

( expl*si*n )

( crackling )
Aah! You juvenile meddler! Frankie? Where What happened? Hold your breath, Cody.

We're phasing out of here! But first Unh! No!
( crackling )

( groans )
Game over.


( both gasp )
Thanks, Frankie.

Told you I got your back.


( dramatic theme playing )
Sigma 17, you are the finest examples of what a Rescue Bot should be.

Separated by distances both great and small, with human partners and without your bond has remained strong.

You found common ground, stood for what was right, and you triumphed.

I know you will stand ready for the challenges ahead.

And wherever you Bots go, the Burns family will be there to support you.

And the Greenes!
( CeCe chuckling )
Boulder and Graham, you will remain in the Pacific Northwest, and oversee the design and building of a community for both humans and Bots.

Blades and Dani, you will stay in China to run rescue operations with Quickshadow and High Tide.

Chase, you will keep your original post in Griffin Rock with Chief Burns.

Heatwave and Kade, you will oversee the training of any new Rescue recruits that come to the mainland.

One of which will look forward to the day when Cody Burns can legally get behind his wheel.


( laughing )
Optipopop And to you as well, young CeCe Greene.

Your assignment will come soon enough.

To be honest, when Optimus shared his plans with me, I found it hard to accept.

I've grown used to having my family around me.

All of my family.

Still, I knew Griffin Rock couldn't hold you forever.

Someday you'd need to forge new paths to new places.

And it looks like that day is now.

But I expect each of you to drop whatever you're doing, walk through the nearest GroundBridge, and take a seat at my table for Sunday Dinner every week.

No excuses.

After all, things will always change But family is forever.

BURNS: I wanna get a picture of my heroes.
