[gong vibrating]

[roaring]

[screaming]

[fire roaring]

What is it,
Howard-san?

Chimeragon is attacking,
Phil-san.

[gasps]

Wait, is Chimeragon
the giant porcupine?

No, no, dude,
that's a Honkodon.

Chimeragon is a lion

with a goat, eagle,
and a snake head.

With a turtle shell
and the bat wings?

No, no,
no, no, no.

You're thinking of
Gameragon.

[Phil-san]
So who's got the tiger's paw?

That's either
Mustazilla, Rogonda, or--

Skies red with flames--

my people
flee their homes.

As samurai,
my duty is clear.

shwing!

[yells]

Ahhh!

Come back here.

You're no samurai.

You're a Samurai brand
vacuum cleaner.

Now 20% off
for a limited time only.

[roaring]

[rubbery squeak]

whack!

Uh,
you thr*aten my city,

frighten my people,

burn my billboards.

You must answer
for your actions.

[creaking]

whack!

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh.

[whimpering]

[laughing]

Coward, it will take
more than laughter

to defeat me.

[whooshing]

[loud crash]

[cheering]

Western robot girl,
we salute you!

Yeah.

What?

No, I am honorable defender.

I am samurai.

Samurai, you?

The Samurai brand
vacuum robot

think he's a samurai.

[man]
Samurai?

Those aren't even
very reliable vacuums.

[laughing]

whap!

[glass shattering]

[expl*si*n]

[roaring]

[screeching]

splat!

[laughing]

[laughs]

snap!

chomp! chomp! chomp!

[cheering]

[Vacu-san]
Outsider.

You dishonor me,
robot girl.

I demand satisfaction.

What's that,
little vacuum cleaner?

I haven't taken
your honor.

Oh, thank you;
it's quite an honor.

I am not vacuum.

I am samurai.

[zipping and rustling]

[laughing]

[Vacu-san]
I am the city's
greatest hero.

For Jenny,
our greatest hero.


and my honor.

[cheering]

Western robot girl,

your actions
have dishonored me.

You cannot leave
this land without--

Okay, thanks;
I got to go home.

Bye-bye.

[clattering]

Vacu-san.

You have invalidated
your warranty.

You are not even fit
to be a display model.

You have disgraced
the honorable name

of Samurai brand
home cleaning.

I have failed,

failed my people,

failed
my parent corporation.

Now I am
a masterless samurai,

alone.

I am forced
to wander this land

forever disgraced

or confront
she who has dishonored me:

Western robot girl.

[creaking and squeaking]

Okay, that's everybody
but you and Tuck.

Okay, people,
if we want to break

the national
car-cramming record,

we're going to
have to suck it up.

Here I come.

I did it!

We tied
the national record.

One more,
and we'll b*at it.

Hey,
how about you?

There's still room
in the ashtray.

I am not here
for your car-cramming ceremony.

Hey, I know you.

You're that
little vacuum cleaner

who loves me so much.

Did you come
all this way

just to thank me
some more?

No, Western robot girl.

I have come
to reclaim my honor.

Once, I was a samurai,
and soon--

ah!

Come on.

Don't you want to be
a part of history?

But do vacuum cleaners
count?

I am not a vacuum.

I am samur--

aaaaii!

pop!

We did it.

We broke the record.

We...

[creaking and rumbling]

[expl*si*n]

[thudding and yelling]

You dishonor me, robot girl.

whack!

Hey, my button.

It's not just
the prestige

and the glory,
you know.

It's also
the shiny trophies.

You won't get away
this time.

I demand trial
by combat.

Bushido, the code
of the samurai,

is very clear.

Only by defeating
his enemy in battle...

Hey,
where are you going?

I demand trial by combat.

Are your batteries low?

She'd mop the floor
with you.

Go home.
Conquer some dust mites.

You dishonor me,
robot girl.

You dishonor me!

[crickets chirping]

[slurping]

crash!

No more
of your tricks.

The battle begins now.

Hey, hey, hey.

Look at this mess.

No battle
until this place is spotless.

[humming]

Wow, this place
is spotless.

You're much better

than that French model
we've been using.

Hmph.

You've earned
a cr*ck at Jenny.

Go for it.

poof!

shwing!

swish!

But I saved
your life

and your city.

When you interfered,

I was unable to defend myself
and my city.

As samurai,
I must defeat

the one
who shamed me.

But that's silly.

You couldn't defeat
that monster on your own.

Silly?

To me,
stuffing a bunch

of smelly teenagers
into a car is silly.

Car-cramming happens
to be a proud tradition,

an American tradition.

My point exactly.

Just as car-cramming

is part of the American
cultural bedrock,

so too
is the eternal struggle

between robots
and giant, mutated amphibians

a part of our culture.

Both must be
respected.

Oh, I see.

Let's get you home
and clean this all up.

No pun intended.

[whirring and crunching]

[rumbling]

[cheering]

[cheering and yelling]

What?
So I called ahead.

Are you sure
you know what you're doing?

Don't be silly.

These people worship me;
I'm their hero.

They'll think
whatever I tell them to think.

My friends,

this little vacuum cleaner

is a great samurai.

He puttered
halfway around the world

in a silly,
fruitless attempt

to b*at
a much more powerful robot.

Just because
he's a clumsy wimp

and terrible fighter,

that doesn't mean

he's any less deserving
of your respect.

Vacu wimp can't even
stand up for himself.

[laughter]

Hey, I didn't ask them
to laugh.

[Vacu-san]
My shame has increased tenfold.

All I ever wanted

was to defend
my people honorably.

[wailing]

Defend them honorably?

ding!

[Brad]
Eh, how do we always end up
in these situations?

Go, Freebird!

Look!

[collective gasp]

[rumbling and stomping]

[screeching]

[screaming]

[distant screaming]

[distant thudding]

Disgraced or not,
I must defend my city.

[screaming]

[stomping]

[yells]

crash!

[metallic clanging]

whack!

[crashing]

[cheering]

clang!

clang!

[metallic slicing]

clang!

clong!

This head will make
a fine trophy for my--

[gasps]

Hey, look, the little guy's
a coward and a fraud.

[crowd laughing]

[collective gasp]

This is the one,
Daddy.

whap!

ptoo!

crash!

[Jenny]
Run, little samurai, run!

[Chimeragon dad]
What about
this little samurai?

That's no samurai.

He's just
a vacuum cleaner.

I am not
a vacuum cleaner.

I am Samurai brand
vacuum cleaner!

[whooshing]

[whirring]

[laughing]

[engine-like whining]

[fire roaring]

[fire roaring]

[laughter]

[stomping]

[crowd cheering]

Well, Samurai-san.

Seems there's a lot
I can learn from you

about honor
and being a hero.

[gong vibrates]

[firecrackers exploding]

And so we bestow
these gifts

on our most honorable
hometown hero,

Vacu-san.

[cheering]

And in honor
of this occasion,

we prepared
this special performance.

And as it turns,
it looks like Arnold.

Remember Arnold?

And if you want to see
sneakers get real clean...

And in that
other space movie,

when they used
that big pump thing...

You won't overshadow me

at this year's
Invention Convention, Nora,

as my machine
eliminates shadows.

Mog's device
is a great introduction

to my latest invention,

a way to dispose
of useless trash.

Now, observe how quickly

my machine
eats this trash can.

beep

[laughs nervously]

Well, it worked fine
this morning.

[rapid beeping]

[whirring and zapping]

Come on. Come on.

crunch!

Turn off!

Turn off!

[beeping]

crunch!

Spit her out.

Spit her out.

[whacking]

[yelling]

[rumbling and crashing]

[rumbling]

[screaming]

[tapping and dinging]

No, my life's work!

chomp!

Wakeman!

Don't you worry
about nothin', y'all.

My invention will blow
that thing to smithereens.

[rapid beeping]

What the--

You can't sh**t it.

My mom's inside.

XJ9, can you read me?

Mom, are you all right?

XJ9, darling,
I was just wondering--

clonk!

Why aren't you
sh**ting this thing?

But I thought--

[groans]

[high-pitched hum]

zap!

[whirring]

boom!

[zapping and explosions]

[zapping]

[explosions and screaming]

[robotic female voice]
What are you doing, Nora?

I am just trying
to complete my mission.

[sizzling]

♪ Daisy, daisy,
give me... ♪

[creaking]

clank!

Blegh!

Your machine
ate my invention, Nora.

Mine was destroyed.

Mine too.

whap!

I'm sorry.

I accept
full responsibility.

I'll pay for everything.

splat!

[whooshing]

How humiliating.

No one's ever
thrown tomatoes at me before.

Come back here,
coward.

This is an outrage.

I'm gon' settle
the score,

if it's
the last thing I do.

Oh, dear.

After all the excitement,

I don't think I'll ever
get to sleep.

[snoring]

Who's there?

[beeping]

Oh, it's just you, XJ1.

How did you get activated?

[belching]

[splashing]

[muffled grunting]

clang!

[cracking]

What's gotten into you?

[zapping]

[zapping]

[shrieks]

Why did I let Tuck
store his fireworks in here?

[roaring]

wham!

zap!

[zooming]

What's going on?

XJ2?

[whistling through air]

[zapping]

[loud expl*si*n]

What was that
all about?

XJs 1 and 2
are malfunctioning.

I'll say,
but why?

[low growl]

[Jenny]
XJ3, not you too.

[buzzing]

crunch!

What the heck
is happening?

They seem
to be targeting me,

but I can't imagine why.

Gee, maybe because you
keep them in the cellar

with the lights off


That's never
bothered them before.

It's almost like
someone or something is--

[whirring]

I'll clean
your clock, Mama.

pop!

[creaking]

Give it up, XJ4.

Don't get in the way, XJ9,

or I'll put you
through the wringer.

Dahh!

[splashing]

Just stop it.

He will never stop
until Mom is destroyed.

Time for a clean sweep.

He?
He who?

[whacking]

Is someone
making you do this?

cr*ck!

I'll never tell.

Take that.

Another one
bites the dust.

whack!

crash!

[XJ4]
Ooh, once I finish sorting
all these shoes,

you're done for!

Do you really think
someone is controlling them?

I don't know,
but we need to turn off

your other sisters
ASAP.

Right.

[buzzing]

Must you drill your way
into the basement?

I have enough holes
in my house.

Fine.

I'll take the stairs.

Doohh.

beep

clank!

whack!

crash!

[gasps]

XJ5!

[Wakefield]
No!

[shrieks]

clang!

[rock music]

clang!

[piano music]

clang!

[brass band music]

crash!

Time to turn it down
a notch, XJ5.

whap!

crunch!

[playsTaps ]

I can't just keep fighting them
one by one.

We have to find out
who's behind this

before I become
an only child or an orphan.

XJ5's circuitry
is much more sophisticated

than the earlier XJs.

This must be someone
with a great deal

of scientific knowledge.

[gasps]

The Invention Convention.

[whooshing]

So what are we
looking for?

I don't know--
a clue, a hint, something.

Ahh!

whack!

Well, if it isn't
Mommy's favorite.

All right, XJ6,
who's controlling you?

Oh, wouldn't you
like to know

so you could step in
and save the day?

It's always XJ9,
the big hero.

What are the rest of us,
chopped liver?

clang!

whack!

[swishing and clanging]

clang!

You think that's
enough to b*at us?

[laughs]

He will never--

crash!

crash!

[gasps]

XJ7!

This is the end,
Mother.

I'm going to destroy you.

I'm--ah--

ohh, who am I kidding?

I can't even be evil
in a convincing way.

Why did he pick me?

I'm worthless.

Prepare for self-destruct.

[XJ7 beeping]

[expl*si*n]

Ohh, I'm such a loser.

I can't even
self-destruct right.

Okay, I think we should leave
before XJ8 shows up.

Yes, I see your point.

She's a lot stronger
than you are.

Yeah, why is it
that you made me

so much weaker
than XJ8?

Well, I had to remove
some of your strength

to make room
for your teenage foibles

and quirky sense of humor,
didn't I?

But we may not have to leave.

I think I can make a
signal-blocking device

from these spare parts.

We may be able to stop...

[rumbling]

[slowly]
XJ8.

crash!

I have come
to destroy our mother.

Where is she?

Um.

[chuckles nervously]

She's right over there,

but you'll have to go through me
to get to her.

I accept your challenge.

whack!

crash!

clang!

[whirring]

[clanging]

Why is this happening?

Who is responsible for this?

[man]
I am.

crash!

[gasps]

And who are you, exactly?

I am Dr. Locus,

master scientist.

I've tangled with him
before--

more of a mad scientist.

A-level, B-level--
give me a ballpark here.

No one ever wanted
my inventions.

They thought
the other inventions

were so much better.

But I have bested them all
with this.

A remote control?

It's nota remote control.

It'sthe remote control.

It controls all inventions,
not just robots,

as I so aptly
demonstrated

at the Invention Convention

when I took over
this Eatamatronic thingy.

It was you.

Yes, it was a great exercise

and a way to knock out
my competition.

This baby's going to sell
like hotcakes.

Wait a minute.

You mean that you
risked my mom's life

and made me fight
my only sisters

for a sales gimmick?

[whistling through air]

Fool, I control all inventions,

including gravity.

beep

crash!

[sizzling and zapping]

You nincompoop.

Gravity isn't an invention.

It's a law of nature.

[creaking]

beep

beep

Too late; the transmission's
already been sent.

To what?

To the last invention.

What makes you think
I'd stop at XJ8?

Oh, no.

I hope you've got jelly
in your pockets,

because you're toast.

boom!

Mom!

[creaking]

[whacking]

zap!

[creaking]

I'm coming
to destroy you, Mom.

Run!

Faster, robot, faster.

beeping

Okay, that's enough
running around.

Let's see some more weapons.

[metallic whacking]

[swishing]

[sizzling]

[winding]

Yipe!

Whew.

No, no.

My beautiful invention--

you've reduced it
to garbage!

crunch!

I fought Jenny harder.

Can I have more confidence
this time?

Can I squirt
scrubbing bubbles?

Well, everything will soon
be back to normal.

chomp!

Jenny, did you forget
to feed the tiger?
