RAD:
Hi. My name's Rad,
and I wanna tell you
about the Transformers,
two races of mechanical beings
from another world.
There's the Autobots,
the good guys,
and then there's
the Decepticons,
a bunch of greedy bullies.
They're all fighting
over a smaller race of robots
called the Mini-Cons.
The Mini-Cons crash-landed on
Earth thousands of years ago,
and they're scattered
all over the planet.
The Decepticons want
to enslave them and use them
to increase their power.
But the Autobots will
put a stop to that evil plan.

STARSCREAM:
Come in, Demolisher!
Have you found a Mini-Con?
( grunts )
How can I look for Mini-Cons
in this place?
It's all I can do
to move around here.
STARSCREAM:
Oh, you're such a fool.
DEMOLISHER:
I don't see you
doing any better.
STARSCREAM:
Sounds like a personal problem.
( grunting )
CYCLONUS: Ha, ha. I found one!
Huh?
CYCLONUS:
Something's glowing up in the
rocks up above you, Starscream.
I'll bet you dollars
to brain chips it's a Mini-Con.
( grunts )
Got it! I'm going in. Unh!
Huh?
( suspenseful theme playing )
CYCLONUS:
Enemy closing in below,
Starscream.
Watch yourself.
Huh?
( laughing )
Transform!
( Starscream gasps
and Hot Shot yells )
Huh?
Sorry to interrupt this little
search party of yours.
( grunts )
Sonar! Runway! Jetstorm!
( dramatic theme playing )
Star Saber!
SMOKESCREEN:
I'm here for you, Hot Shot!
I'm getting warm and fuzzy.
Snag the Mini-Con,
would you, Smokescreen?
It's planted in the rocks.
Say no more.
Ugh! I'm not giving up
after making it this far.
Aah!
Uhh!
( both grunting )
( screaming )
( grunts )
( screaming )
Look out, Starscream!
( grunting )
( both screaming )
( suspenseful theme playing )
I lost my sword!
( whirring
then Smokescreen groans )
Huh?
You can run, but you can't hide.
( grunts then screams )
( screaming )
( thud )
Phew! That was a little
too close for comfort.
Ugh! That sword
is destroying us again.
Demolisher!
Yes. At your service!
Charge!
Who will send you in
as my backup, sir?
No one, you fool!
You're on your own.
What about you, Megatron?
( gasps )
Don't worry,
I've got things to do.
OPTIMUS: I'll take you on!
Huh?
( yells )
( grunts )
HOT SHOT: Ha! What a pity.
Looks like your friends
have all let you down.
Come on. I'm feeling generous.
It's your move.
( grunts )
Unh!
Aah!
( grunting )
Hey, you wanna go again?
No, thanks.
I've had enough punishment
for one day.
Decepticons,
withdraw at once.
( grunts )
( grunts )
DEMOLISHER:
Wait for me!
Don't leave me all alone here!
They never stood a chance.
SMOKESCREEN:
Hot Shot!
You all right?
Better than just all right.
Cool. You pick up
a little hitchhiker?
( chuckles )
Meet my new partner here.
I call him Liftor.
How's it going, Liftor?
Welcome aboard.
Oh, that Star Saber
sure took care of the enemy.
This baby's
only getting warmed up.
Wait till you see what it's
really capable of in battle.
OPTIMUS: Hot Shot!
Hmm?
SMOKESCREEN:
Optimus.
Don't let your guard down.
We can't trust
those Decepticons.
I've got it under control.
We've been battling them
for a long time.
But this sword
will put an end to the combat.
( dramatic theme playing )
( laughing )
You wish.
Huh?
( upbeat theme playing )
What's this?
Who put all these tools
in the fridge?
I spend all that time
fixing up the fridge,
and do people use it
for food? No.
They stuff it full of hammers
and wrenches and junk.
Yo, Rad! Don't look so bummed
out about the food situation.
Alexis has gone
to buy a bunch of stuff for us.
You sure about that?
Because I just saw her taking
off with Grindor somewhere.
Yeah.
They went grocery shopping
together.
( buzzing )
Detergent with bleach
or without?
( Grindor buzzing )
And maybe some degreaser,
so Optimus and the others
can get cleaned up.
( buzzing )
Hey. I hope this stuff doesn't
cause you to short circuit.
Ah, what the heck.
We'll get it anyway.
Mommy, I just saw a robot
in the store!
MOTHER:
That's nice, dear.
Whoa! Look at all the grub
you guys bought.
This time,
how about slowing down
on the midnight fridge raids?
RAD: You nuts, Alexis?
What's the deal? Why'd you take
Grindor to the store?
( Grindor buzzing )
No harm done.
He helped me out,
and no one even noticed.
RED ALERT:
Rad has a point.
You've got to use
more discretion than that.
Hey there, Red Alert.
If someone finds out
about us,
there'll be
some serious implications.
RAD:
Hey, where is everyone?
They've located a Mini-Con.
Don't worry,
they should be back shortly.
Aw, why do we have to sit here
while they have all the fun?
RED ALERT:
That's quite enough.
They're halfway
around the world.
And it may be daytime here,
but it's nighttime there.
Kids can't be walking around
after dark, right?
What kind of lame excuse
is that?
Defending the base is as
important as finding Mini-Cons.
Isn't that right, Red Alert?
I know. Spare me the lecture.
RED ALERT:
Well, I've got something here
that might cheer you up.
You mean Laserbeak?
What about him?
RED ALERT:
I vamped it up a bit.
Now it can pick up your voices
from anywhere.
So even if you're on the other
side of the world, kids,
it'll detect your voices
and move in response
to your commands.
CARLOS:
Too cool!
Kind of like a spy cam,
only without the visuals.
( groans )
( dramatic theme playing )
MEGATRON:
What is the meaning of this?
I have never seen
such a pathetic combat.
CYCLONUS:
But, Megatron,
it was that Star Saber. Honest.
Otherwise
we would have crushed them.
Unfortunately that is precisely
why you must go
and steal the sword.
Now we're left
with no choice
but to infiltrate
the Autobots' base once more.
No! No, anything but that.
We'll never make it
out of there alive, Megatron.
( grunting )
SCAVENGER:
It seems you're surrounded
by incompetents, Megatron.
What's that? Who's there?
Hmm?
So much for your reputation
as the lord of destruction.
How did you get in?
So, what do you want?
MEGATRON: Ah, Scavenger.
CYCLONUS & DEMOLISHER: Huh?
I'm glad to see you made it,
my loyal minion.
DEMOLISHER:
You know him, Megatron?
CYCLONUS:
What's going on?
I called for him
to come to my side.
This mercenary
can assist us.
CYCLONUS: He's a merc?
( Scavenger laughs )
I wasn't sure until just now
whether I will to respond
to your request.
I made up my mind
after witnessing that battle
and seeing how pathetically
you performed.
You need all the help
you can get.
( grunts )
SCAVENGER:
Still, I'm impressed
that you would have a base here.
It's perfect
for a warp facility.
Nice work, Megatron.
Sometimes your intelligence
surprises me.
( grunts )
Spare me the cynicism.
Calling you was a last resort,
believe me.
We must have
that Star Saber.
Can we count
on your assistance, my friend?
I'll be certain
to make it worth your while.
STARSCREAM:
Megatron!
We don't need help
from the likes of him.
Megatron,
I've heard the rumors
about these three assistants
of yours.
Some claim they are among
the most fearsome
of the Decepticons.
Heh, heh. So much for believing
everything you hear.
That's enough! I won't stand
for these insults! Ugh!
Enough!
Stand down, Starscream!
( dramatic theme playing )
( grunting )
That's enough, Starscream.
Unfortunately, you pale
in comparison to Scavenger.
Heh, heh, heh. Admirable.
You wanted to stand up to me
even though your arm
has been severed.
You seem to have
much more courage
than even Megatron himself.
( grunts )
I'll take you on in battle
once your arm has healed,
of course.
( laughing )
( thinking ):
I cannot allow him
to cut us down like that
and get away with it.

HOT SHOT:
Let's get this show started.
Hot Shot, stay focused.
Hmph.
I can handle it myself.
This Star Saber
wants to go to work so bad,
it's practically
begging for it.

It's show time!
Unh!

CYCLONUS:
My butt! What've you done
to my poor butt?
( Hot Shot gasps
then Demolisher grunts )
( grunts )
STARSCREAM: Stop!
Hmm?
I'll take you on!
Yeah?
Bring it on, big guy.
Watch yourself, Hot Shot!
Crush him, Starscream!
Grind that insignificant Autobot
into the ground!
Thanks for the instructions.
I'm waiting.
( Scavenger laughing )
Huh?
Huh?
( suspenseful theme playing )
( chuckling )
This seems to be getting
more and more interesting.
A perfect way for me
to k*ll some time,
if you know what I mean.
Who are you?
I go by the name Scavenger.
Hmm. It's been a long time,
Optimus.
Huh?
Wha--?
What's the deal?
You know this creep?
( chuckles )
I'll spare you the details,
but if it weren't for me,
Optimus wouldn't be
spending his life
caught up in these battles.
It's true.
You were the one
who taught me to fight
a long, long time ago.
Huh?
STARSCREAM: Enough stalling!
Your trip down memory lane
has nothing to do with me
or this battle.
Heh, heh.
You're right, Starscream.
On with the battle. I'm
looking forward to witnessing
your little performance.
Oh, this'll be more
than just a performance.
And when I'm finished
with him,
I'm gonna do a little surgery
on your mouth.
( laughs )
I can hardly wait to see
if you live up to your words,
Starscream.
Do it, Starscream.
Steal his Star Saber
and bring it to me immediately.
SCAVENGER: Megatron!
Huh?
You butt out of this too.
( grunts )
Shall I get him, Megatron?
Silence!
Make yourself useful for once
and start searching
for a Mini-Con!
Yes, sir.
Let's begin, Hot Shot!

a good warrior
until you learn
to know yourself.
STARSCREAM:
What?
Hot Shot, you think you've won,
don't you?
Well, you didn't win
on your own merits.
That sword won the match
for you.
Sure about that?
I'll take you on next
if you're brave enough.
Hot Shot, stand down!
Heh, heh, heh. Okay.
I'll have some fun with you.

MEGATRON:
Why? Why won't it revive?
( grunting )
Hmm.
I think I might know.
Perhaps the Mini-Con
is similar to the Star Saber
and won't awaken until
three Mini-Cons are united.
MEGATRON:
What?
SCAVENGER:
Heh. Don't you know the legend?
What legend?
The legend of the shield
that blocks the Star Saber,
of course.
A shield?
Hmm.
Hmm.
