Okay, Hot sh*t-- tippy-toes...

Almost there...

And he's made it...

Nice of you to join us, Hot sh*t.

Professor Chase, ah! Didn't see you there.

I was concentrating hard, reading my book here.

[chuckling]

Looks like your stealth game could use some work, buddy.

You might be right, Wedge.

And I might be able to help with that.

You're gonna help me sneak into class late?

No, and you can make up the time later.

[groans]

But being able to move stealthily

is an important skill for Rescue Bots.

Perhaps all you recruits would benefit

from a little covert police training.

[all] Yeah! Woohoo! Yay!

I've staged a pretend, but impressively accurate,

police scenario for you here in Griffin Rock.

Tough Luck Chuck here has turned master criminal

and stolen the town's famous "Settlers' Bell".

Ooh, I knew he was up to something!

Whoever recovers the bell

and arrests Chuck at his secret hideout-- wins.

-That's it? -No.

You need to do it without being caught... by me.

-What's the prize? -Prize?

If you win, Hot sh*t,

I'll excuse you from being late to class.

And if we win?

How does a shiny trophy sound?

-[all cheer] -One more thing.

Standard police procedure on a covert mission like this

is one Bot on look-out while another Bot investigates.

Which means you'll be working in... pairs.

I'm standing on my own. Why--

Why am I standing on my own?

Um, well, we need to be stealthy.

Inconspicuous, covert, quiet.

[shouts] My middle name is quiet!

[cracking]

Okay, it's not.

But I can be as silent as a moose.

-[giggling] -I think you mean "mouse".

Right, right! Mouse.

Earth has so many animals.

But yes, when I want, I can be like a mouse.

A stealthy, ninja mouse.

Literally nothing you just said was true.

Ugh. You'll see.

Don't worry, Hot sh*t. You're partnering with a teacher.

Hah! Noble!

I'm so gonna win this.

[cracking, loud rumbling]

[thunderous footsteps]

Wassup, bitty-bots?

Who's ready to bust a bad guy?

Grimlock's my partner?

I mean yay! Grimlock's my partner!

Put it there, partner.

Y'know, I'm suddenly feeling pretty good about our chances.

Yeah, I mean, Grimlock's amazing!

But stealthy...?

Hey, just for fun, anyone wanna swap partners?

[all] Ah, I'm good. Hard pass. No thanks.

Don't forget, Hot sh*t. Grimlock is a seasoned investigator.

You can learn a lot from him about stealth.

[nervous giggle]

[thunderous footsteps]

So, we're the dream team, huh?

You got it!

I'm thinking we should get hats.

Hats? That's your plan?

Yep. And to duck.

Ugh!

Now, get ready for some stealth moves.

Huh? Ugh...

Okay. I'm Chuck.

I'm a crash-test dummy turned master criminal

and I'm on the run. Where do I go?

Ah-ha! I'd know that footprint anywhere.

It's size Chuck!

Hmmm...

Nope. Zero Chucks or bells.

Hey, this paper says there's a barn due for demolition in town.

Is it abandoned, creepy,

and the only place we haven't been?

-Yep! -Then let's go!

When you said hats-- I wasn't thinking flowery.

Camouflage, Hot sh*t.

Standard covert procedure.

Little stealth technique I picked up from Bumblebee.

Crash test yellow paint!

Gotta be Chuck! We're gettin' warmer!

Whoa!

So, "partner",

where do you think we should go next?

The town square.

But that's where Chuck stole the bell from.

He's not gonna be at the scene of the crime, is he?

Whoa, that would be an awesome plot twist.

But, nah, we just hang out there a while,

pick up some clues, yadda-yadda.

Important thing is to not rush around,

or Chase will see us.

Or we go so fast,

even if he does see us, he can't catch us?

Not sure you're getting the hang of "stealth" there, partner.

Ooh! Hat shop!

Ugh, this is crazy.

I'm never gonna get out of my punishment

if I stay saddled with Grimlock.

Time for this dream team to go solo.

♪♪

Awww, look. Chickens!

And some yellow stuff.

-That's hay. -Hey!

There's Chuck!

Hi, Chuck! And, ah-ha!

Thought you could escape the long arm of the law, did ya?

Not on our watch.

Now all we gotta do is look for a bell in a haystack.

[chicken squawking]

Er, Whirl? Where exactly did you get this wooden beam from?

[loud rumbling]

[gasps]

[crash]

Oops, heh-heh.

[chickens clucking]

-[gasps] -Gotcha!

Uh-oh.

I've calculated that there are places

large enough to hide the bell in Griffin Rock.

How many have we checked so far?

Four. We'd be quicker if we weren't trying to avoid Chase.

I'll create a diversion so we can sneak past him.

[loud clatter]

Garbage truck.

Large enough to hold a stolen bell

and Chuck, who doesn't have a sense of smell?

Precisely. Follow that truck!

♪♪

[gasps]

Nothing to see here. Just another trash can.

Only one option.

My favorite option.

The "go big or go home"!

[loud whirring]

Yuck! Okay, the trash thing didn't work out, but,

you know, this port would be a great place

to hide something as large as the bell.

Like in these shipping containers.

Yes. And by my calculations it'll only take...

Hmm... Three point seven months to search them all.

Better get started then.

[chain rattles]

Now that's what I call a boat trip.

Ha! Human wordplay comedy!

[engine whirring]

[Hot sh*t] Whoa, so Chase caught the other teams.

Ergo, because I technically was never caught,

I'll consider that a partial victory.

Go me!

Is it a tornado?

Close. It's a Hot sh*t.

[Medix] Hotshot! I fail to see the bell.

-Or Chuck. -Or Grimlock?

You got me. What can I say?

It was an unsolvable crime.

Chuck is a mastermind!

[loud clang]

No... way!

He snuck past all of us.

Wow, that's really sneaky.

I told you not to underestimate Professor Grimlock.

Bell returned. Perp arrested. Case closed.

I'm trying not to look too smug.

Am I looking too smug?

Okay. How did you do it?

Let me tell you a story.

So there I am, on the trail,

staying in stealth mode.

That was you? Oh. I wanted to see that movie.

The trail led me outta town,

where I find Whirl and Hoist destroying a barn

with some dinobot level demolition work.

Luckily for Chuck,

my tail makes an awesome emergency slide.

So, I had Chuck, but no bell.

But I did see wagon wheel ruts

leading from the barn...

...all the way to the port.

What did I find there?

Two recruits who forgot which way was up.

When I stopped laughing,

I saw the anchor chain wasn't connected to a ship.

So I pulled it up. And would ya believe,

on the other end,

was the missin' bell.

Crime solved. Boom!

I still have a question.

How did you sneak a bell and Chuck into the square

without any of us seeing you?

That was all Hot sh*t. I just snuck in

while everyone was rubber-necking his landing.

So, yeah, thanks for that, partner.

You're welcome?

And that, class, is how to do stealth.

[all] Yeah! Woohoo!

Let's get back to the Academy

for a debrief on what we've learned.

You know what I learned? Never underestimate others.

Sorry for ditching you, Grimlock.

It's okay, Hot sh*t.

Sounds like a good lesson to learn.
