01x09 - Confrontation

[bunniefuu]

RAD:

Hi my name's Rad,

and I wanna tell you

about the Transformers,

mechanical beings

from another world.

There's the Autobots, the good

guys, and the Decepticons.

They're all fighting

over a tiny race of robots

called the Mini-Cons,

who crash-landed on Earth

thousands of years ago,

and they're scattered

all over the planet.

The Decepticons wanna

collect them and use them

to increase their power.

But the Autobots

will put a stop to that.

FRED:

Aw, I bet they're from

the future.

I say they're from space.

And I bet their mission

is to take over the world too.

I don't know, they don't seem

that evil to me.

And did you see that one

that turn into a car?

It was so cool.

( engine revs )

That's just a disguise

so they fit in, doofus.

Hmm?

Hey, look at that.



Huh?

Come on.

Hmm?

BILLY:

Let's go.

Hey! Wait up!

( grunting )

BILLY:

Hurry up, Fred!

Yeah, I'm coming.

Hey, wait up.

BILLY:

Hey, you guys.

Hmm?

BILLY:

Wait for us.

Carlos, did you invite

those two?

No way, not a chance.

They'll never catch us anyway.

Let's move it.

BILLY:

Hey, you won't get away from me.

Come on, Billy,

do you have to ride so fast?

Huh?

( snickering ):

Well, what do we have here?

Yee-ha!

Quick, let's split up.

( guffawing )

( sighs )

This is a good spot

to stop and rest.

Aw, zip it, you slowpoke.

( panting )

( tire screeches )

Huh?



Hello, there.

( Rad grunts )

( Cyclonus snickering )

Go on, make a move.

I dare you.

( grunts )

( guffawing )

( panting )

Whoopsie. Try again.

Oh, my.

You must be getting tired.

( laughs )

( grunting )

Oh, goody, you wanna play

hide-and-seek.

( Cyclonus guffawing )

Come out, come out

wherever you are.

( grunting )

Aw, don't be shy.

I won't bite.

( Cyclonus snickering )

( grunts )

( buzzing )



( Cyclonus groans )

You little brat.

I'll show you.

You need

an attitude adjustment, punk.

RAD ( narrating ):

I was in deep trouble,

but I'd totally forgotten

that Billy and Fred

were in the same area.

( suspenseful theme playing )

Where'd he go?

Ah.

Wow. A helicopter.

Yeah, neat.

Hey, look.

There's no pilot in there.

Aah! Help me!

( grunting )

( Cyclonus guffawing )

No! Not Billy and Fred!

CYCLONUS:

Hey, kid,

you tell Optimus Prime

I'll trade him these little

punks for the Mini-Cons.

( laughs )

That creep.

He's taken them

both hostage.

What do we do?

Huh?

Okay, Laserbeak,

go follow them.

OPTIMUS:

What? He's taken

the children hostage?

Only Cyclonus would do

something like that.

What a dirty trick.

Now what do we do?

We have to rescue them.

As soon as we've got

their position, we'll move out.

This time

they've gone too far.

ALEXIS:

Laserbeak's still

on their trail.

Optimus, sir. I've locked on

to the coordinates.

Good.

( rock theme playing )

OPTIMUS:

Launch.

( ominous theme playing )

For your sake

they better show up.

Oh, they will.

STARSCREAM:

If they don't,

then it's on your head.

Aw, relax.

I got a plan, I told you.

( snickering )

FRED:

I knew I should've stayed home.

I hate bicycling.

I told you they've come

to take over the world,

and I guess they need us

to carry out their plan.

So, what are they gonna do?

Well, what do you think?

They're gonna drain

our brains, doofus.

They can't.

I need my brain.

What about me?

I'm smarter than you are.

Okay,

but let's get out of here.

Right. Hmm...

This must be some kind

of old warehouse.

Wonder what this thing is.

Hmm.

( clanging )



Huh?

Aah!

That was close!

Hey, someone's up there.

Huh?

( ominous theme plays )

BILLY:

It's another robot.

It's spying on us.

Come on, let's try

and make a run for it.

Uh, let's not.

I guess you want your brains

sucked out, huh, blockhead?

Uh, well,

I guess we could set a trap.

Hmm? Here they come.

I told you the Autobots

would show up, didn't I?

( guffaws )

I'll handle this one.

( laughs )

Go ahead, be my guest.

( Rad grunts )

Our best bet

is to split up, you guys.

OPTIMUS:

Be careful out there.

Hey, we'll be just fine.

Let's move out, men.

You bet. Transform.

At least I've still got

some potato chips left.

Mm, mm, mm.

Hey, you wanna try one?

Here.

Hmm.

( ominous theme playing )

DEMOLISHER:

For your sake, those children

had better be safe, Cyclonus.

( laughing ):

They are, for now, at least.

If something happens to them,

you'll be very sorry. Trust me.

You're in no position

to be threatening me, pal.

Now, hand over the Mini-Cons

and back off.

OPTIMUS:

No, give us the children first.

You won't get he Mini-Cons

until we know they're unharmed.

No. You'll get the brats

when I get the Mini-Cons.

Ha! We can't trust him.

What was that?

( both grunting )

Aah!

( grunts )

FRED:

Don't you eat my chips.

(Billy and Fred grunting )

( both whimpering )

Huh?

Huh?

Hey, I bet

the kids are in there.

Oh, no, you don't.

Let's blast them.

It'll be my pleasure.

( grunting )

ALEXIS:

They're in trouble

We've gotta get them

out of there right now.

And we're gonna need

your help, Mini-Cons.

( Mini-Cons beeping )

( both gasping )

( both gasp )

( both whimpering )

BOTH:

Huh?

Huh?

BILLY:

What's going on out there?

FRED:

You tell me.

( grunts )

Time to transform.

Just try

and get away from me now.

( Cyclonus guffawing )

STARSCREAM:

Hand over the Mini-Cons.

Give us those children

first.

So you wanna do things

the hard way?

All right then.

( grunting )

( groans )

OPTIMUS:

Where's your leader, Megatron?

Hey, what's the problem?

I'm not good enough for you?

Look, those robots

are fighting each other.

No. They've come here

to save us.

I sure hope

you're right.

( thumping )

BOTH:

Huh? Oh, no.

Now what's going on?

Uh, I-- I think

they're talking.

( clattering )



BOTH: Huh?

RAD:

You guys okay down there?

BILLY:

Yeah, but what's

with the costumes?

Never mind.

That's not important now.

We came here

to save you guys.

FRED:

You're gonna save us?

Aren't you glad

to see us?

BOTH ( in unison ):

Sure, Alexis.

( chuckles )

( Cyclonus guffawing )

It's such a shame Optimus

won't hand over the Mini-Cons.

Now you're paying for it!

HOT SHOT:

I wish this whirlybird would

give it a rest for a while.

( tires screech )

Let's do it.

Huh?

CYCLONUS:

I don't like the look of that.

You're the most annoying Autobot

I've ever met.

( Barrel beeping )

So, what's he saying?

FRED:

What's going on?

MEGATRON:

Transform!

( all screaming )

( ominous theme playing )

( all whimpering )

( laughing )

( all screaming )

( laughing )

It's better

than I expected.

Not only do I have the Mini-Con,

but I have hostages.

How perfect.

( laughs )

( all screaming )

Optimus, sir.

Megatron?

( guffawing )

MEGATRON:

Quite a handful, isn't it?

HOT SHOT:

No way.

CYCLONUS ( snickering ):

You Autobots fell

right into our trap.

( laughs )

Transform!

That's it.

( both grunting )

That's one down

and three to go.

Stay right here,

or I'll put the squeeze

on your friends.

( all groaning )

OPTIMUS:

Megatron, release those

children.

This has nothing to do

with them.

MEGATRON:

Oh, I was just thinking

of keeping them as pets.

No way.

Easy, Red Alert.

( all groaning )

( guffawing )

( Optimus grunting )

All right.

If you let the children go,

we'll turn over

all the Mini-Cons.

Yes, now you're talking.

If that's the deal, I agree.

No! Don't!

Don't give him the Mini-Cons!

Don't do it, Optimus!

If you do, they'll become

too powerful!

I'm sorry. But I will not

allow you kids to be harmed.

( all shouting indistinctly )

Be quiet, you brats.

ALEXIS:

Don't worry about us!

We're all right!

Don't do it!

( sighs )

Red Alert, Hot Shot.

Give your Mini-Cons to Megatron

right now.

That's an order.



Yes, sir, Optimus.

Oh, what a rip-off.

CARLOS:

Oh, no!

Hey, dudes,

we gotta do something!

Hey, Laserbeak.

( beeps )

( grunts )

( suspenseful theme playing )

Send those Mini-Cons

over here.

OPTIMUS:

I'm sorry, my friends. Go on.

( Starscream chuckling )

We've come through

with our part of the deal.

Now, release the children,

Megatron.

Oh, no, I don't think so.

What?

You double-crossed us.

I might need these humans

to bargain with in the future.

( laughing )

( buzzing )

This'll teach you

to break your promises, you rat.

( grunting )

Quick. Go get him.

( suspenseful theme playing )

( grunting )



( all gasp )

( all scream )

( grunting )

( Fred screaming )

( grunting )

Aah!

MEGATRON:

Enough.

Huh?



Huh?

You will do as I say

or this kid is history.

( ominous theme playing )

( grunting )

( groans )

Huh?

Now give me the rest

of the Mini-Cons.

( whimpering )

Huh?

( grunting )

FRED:

I've gotta

do something now.

( grunting continuous )

( Fred screaming )

You rotten liar!

You broke your promise!

Put down my friend

right now!

ALL:

Huh?

( panting and grunting )

What? That little brat.

Go finish him off.

Don't you hurt my friend!

Hmm?

Run for it, Fred!



Get out of there now!

Remember me?

Why can't we be friends?

Huh?

I should have known better

than to trust you with a plan.

Please forgive me,

Megatron.

We'll discuss this

back at the base.

Rad, you okay?

Not hurt, are you?

No, I'm fine.

Hey, thanks a lot,

Hot Shot.

You saved my life.

I'm just glad

you're safe.

Yes, me too.

Well, hey, Fred deservers

some of the credit.

Yeah. Thanks a lot, Fred.

I don't believe it.

You're a hero, Fred.

I was just trying to help.

I guess I owe you one, Fred.

You don't owe me anything.

You guys came here

to save us.

So that makes us even.

Here, I think

this is yours.

Thanks.

Hey, I haven't

introduced you guys yet.

BOTH: Huh?



RAD: This is Hot Shot,

that's Red Alert and Optimus

Prime, their commander.

Wow. Hi, my name's Fred.

And I'm Billy.

Nice to meet you.

It's nice to meet

both of you too.

See? I was right, Billy.

These bots aren't evil at all.

I guess those other ones

were the bad guys.

Hey, where are you guys from,

anyway?

We're from planet Cybertron.

Told you. I knew

they were from outer space.

And they're really cool too.

Yeah, super cool. Heh.

( all chuckling )

RAD:

The secret was out.

Fred and Billy met the Autobots

and realized

they didn't have anything

to be afraid of.

As long as the Decepticons

stayed out of the picture

everything was gonna be

all right.
