Transformers: Energon.
- [Many Speakers] Transformers!
(tense music)
- [Alpha Quintesson]
Wait, Scorpinok.
- Pardon?
- I have a little gift for you.
(laughs maniacally)
(electronic buzz)
- But... what is it, Alpha Q?
- [Alpha Quintesson] Take it.
You'll find out in time.
- Tidal Wave, Tidal Wave.
Where are you taking me?
- I admire your curiosity,
Tidal Wave. (laughs)
But for now, Tidal Wave,
all you need to know is
we require your services.
And I hope you'll
be cooperative.
(Tidal Wave growls)
Because you don't have
a choice in the matter.
(futuristic electronic music)
- Man, this is
totally frustrating.
It's like they totally
disappeared off the screen.
This is like the fourth
grid search I've put up
for Cyclonus and Tidal Wave.
Okay, the last place we
had contact with them was
on the moon, but I still
don't come up with anything.
How could they
disappear like that?
Not that I really
care or anything.
Well, I suppose the
next logical step is
to expand my search.
(gasps)
Holy Frijoles!
I know Tidal Wave was big,
but this is ridiculous.
Wait a second...
It looks like some kind of
comet, but that's impossible.
(gasps)
It just... disappeared!
(splash)
- As you can see we are
currently mining Energon
in Desert City, Plain City
and right here in Ocean City.
And each location is
vulnerable to attack.
Hot Shot, Jetfire, head
a defensive strike force
to those other cities at once.
- Yes, sir!
- Right away, sir.
(Ironhide groans)
- Status report, Inferno.
- There's not much
going on, Optimus, sir.
Except I had a report
from our Mars station
about what appeared
to be a comet.
- What?
- What seems even
more bizarre is that
it suddenly just vanished
right off my radar screen.
- Interesting.
Keep an eye on it, Inferno.
- Yes, sir.
(mechanical whirring)
- Hey, what about me?
- Huh?
- How come you
didn't send me out
to back up Hot Shot or Jetfire?
I'm not useless, you know.
- No, I want you two to
stay here on standby.
- Are you serious?
Me and who?
- Kicker.
I assigned you to him and
that order still stands.
- Ah, give me a break!
I had to babysit him on
the last mission, sir.
- Listen and listen
good, Ironhide.
I am the commander.
I assigned you to
partner up with Kicker
and I suggest you
follow through.
If you refuse, then
you're off this team.
Is that understood, soldier?
- (sighs) Yes, sir.
- What was that?
I didn't hear you.
- Yes, sir, I understand, sir.
- Very well.
- Mika, you've got
to listen to me.
You've got to get out
of there and quick!
- I told you before,
I'm not leaving.
Besides, I just heard
Hot Shot is supposed
to be coming here.
- If you think you're
safe just because
Hot Shot's on his way, you've
got another thing coming.
- I'm not leaving, Kicker.
I've made up my mind.
- Come on, Mika!
Don't make me have to beg you.
You've got to evacuate
because it's too dangerous.
- I'm really sorry, but I've
just got to get back to work.
Bye for now.
(ping)
- Hey!
Mika, no!
Come in, Mika!
(whooshing)
- My superior urgently
needs your help, Tidal Wave,
to revive someone.
- Who is he?
- Someone you know very well.
- You don't mean... Megatron?
- Could there be any other?
- Oh, Megatron lives!
I thought I would
never see this day.
- The reason we so
abruptly abducted you
was we need your help in
order to revive your leader.
- What?
Revive Megatron?
- Yes, and the only
way to accomplish this
is to retrieve large
quantities of Energon.
- Must retrieve Energon to
revive our great leader.
- Yes.
(futuristic electronic music)
(electronic whir)
- Transform!
Huh?
Who's that standing there?
Mika?
- [Mika] I can't believe Kicker
is still worried about me.
- Hey, let me put it this way:
worried is putting it mildly.
- Well, I feel better
now that you're here.
I mean that, Hot Shot.
- I'm just doing my job,
and as long as I'm here,
you've got nothing
to worry about.
(Mika laughs)
- Man!
Why doesn't that girl
every listen to me?
- Hm, that kid may
want to eat more fiber.
- Here's the latest video
of Terrorcons attacking
one of our mines.
Our main priority is to
protect all of the humans.
And equally as important,
we have to ensure the safety
of the Omnicons who remain
in vulnerable positions
inside the Energon mines.
We are obviously
outnumbered, but our job is
to keep them from getting
the Energon at all costs.
(tense violin music)
- All right, men,
we've located the enemy
and there's lots of them.
So let's make every shot count.
Remember, they want
our Energon big time.
(alarm)
That's our cue, boys.
- Battle stations,
battle stations!
Incoming enemy
detected at six o'clock
and approaching fast.
(foreboding music)
- Which base will they
hit first, Inferno?
- I'm not sure
about that yet, sir.
(Kicker pants)
- They're heading
straight to Mika!
- What?
- They're going to
hit Desert City.
- How do you know?
- There's no time to explain.
Come on, we've got to
give Hot Shot some backup.
Sureshot, vehicle mode.
(vehicle revs)
- Man, that kid really
gets under my armor.
- Ironhide, move out.
- But sir, that brat is
just one pain in the-
- Kicker's probably
right on the money.
Now let's move out.
- What?
(electronic charging)
- Thanks for the
boost, Strongarm.
- And we thought you
might need these.
- Yeah, just in
case you run into
a little trouble out there.
(electronic whirring)
- What the heck is this?
- A little added protection.
- But wouldn't a cannon
have been simpler?
- Quit your whining, Ironhide,
or we'll take it back.
- You can never have
too many weapons.
- But remember, once
you run out of Energon,
your weapons are useless.
Now don't sh**t the Energon
all in one shot, you got that?
- Perfectly.
- Optimus, Kicker nailed it.
The enemy is closing
in on Desert City.
- You were right!
- I told you.
Now let's get going.
(Ironhide grunts)
What's everyone waiting for?
Let's get this show on the road.
- Hey, you're not the boss!
- Ironhide, let's
work as a team.
Now transform into vehicle
mode because we're moving out
as soon as the sky bridge opens.
- Yes, Optimus.
(threatening screeching)
- All right, men, they're here.
Now spread out and make sure
you've got a clean shot.
- Tidal Wave, attack!
Need Energon.
Need Energon.
- It's Tidal Wave!
Why, that low-down traitor.
- Must bring Megatron
back to life.
- What?
Did he just say Megatron?
(snarling)
(roars)
(intense music)
(lasers sh**ting)
(crashing)
- Must retrieve Energon.
(explosions)
- Pull back!
We have to protect the
entrance to the mine.
- Tidal Wave, Tidal
Wave, Tidal Wave...
Tidal Wave!
- I've had enough
of you, Tidal Wave!
(Tidal Wave roars)
- (laughs) That's
it, Tidal Wave.
I knew you would be
my good luck charm.
(lasers sh**ting)
- Keep firing, men!
Give them everything you've got.
- Tidal Wave.
Tidal Wave.
(growling)
Must enter mine.
(expl*si*n)
Must have Energon.
(lasers sh**ting)
Tidal Wave.
Tidal Wave, Tidal Wave.
- This is it, boys.
This is where we make our stand.
(lasers sh**ting)
These clowns aren't
getting past me.
(distant explosions)
(Mika gasps)
- Don't worry, Mika.
It's the Energon
they're after, not us.
We're not part of this battle.
- No, you're wrong.
We're the ones who
developed the Energon stars
and they need them.
- Huh?
(gasps)
- They need Energon, but
they need it refined.
- Would you hurry up?
It sounds like
they're closing in.
- Hey, I'm going
as fast as I can.
Now how much more of
this raw ore do you need?
- I think that load
should just about do it.
- You know, I still
don't think we have
to be too concerned, Mika.
They'll head straight
down to the warehouse
before they come look for us.
- Yeah, well I sure
hope you're right.
- Keep firing!
(explosions)
(groans)
(snarls)
(snarls)
(lasers)
(eating)
(electronic whirring)
(intense rock music)
- Hot Shot, come in, come in!
- Optimus...
- Hot Shot, where are you?
- (groans) I'm at the
entrance to the mine.
(laser sh**t)
(Hot Shot groans)
- Hot Shot, stay put.
We're coming!
Follow me, men.
- Out of my way, bird-brain!
- Ironhide, you take the
lead and head straight
to the mine entrance.
- You got it.
(explosions)
- Hang in there, Hot Shot.
We're on our way.
(vehicle revs)
(lasers sh**ting)
(explodes)
- Heads up, giant
pothole at o'clock.
(vehicles skid)
(snarling)
- Looks like they've put
out a welcoming committee.
- Everyone, transform!
Optimus Prime, transform.
- Ironhide, transform.
(Optimus Prime
and Ironhide yell)
- Crush enemy.
- That's Tidal Wave!
- (gasps) What's he doing here?
- He's a traitor.
- Move.
(lasers sh**ting)
- I'll take care of Tidal Wave.
You find Hot Shot.
- You got it, sir.
(Optimus Prime yells)
- Tidal Wave, Tidal Wave!
(Optimus Prime yells)
- Tidal Wave, Tidal Wave!
- Looks like we've got company.
(screeching)
(weapons whirring)
(Ironhide yells)
(explosions)
- Tidal Wave...
- You mind explaining
yourself, Tidal Wave?
- Must revive Megatron.
- What?
Megatron?
(Scorpinok laughs maniacally)
- Huh?
- So you're the Autobot
leader. (laughs)
Allow me to introduce myself.
I am Scorpinok.
Destroy him, Tidal Wave!
(lasers sh**ting)
(Optimus Prime groaning)
- Come on, move it, Ironhide.
- Hot Shot, are you all right?
Speak to me.
- Yeah, I think so.
- Hot Shot, what about Mika?
- They're still in R
& D with the Omnicons.
- Man, why didn't she
leave when I told her to?
- Hey, where are you going?
- Go with Kicker, Ironhide.
You've got to
protect the humans.
- No way, Hot Shot, I can't
just leave you here like this.
- I said "go," and
that's an order, soldier!
Do I make myself
perfectly clear?
- Sir!
(fast-paced electronic music)
- Okay, Kicker, lead the way.
- Ironhide, heads up!
(snarls)
(Ironhide yells)
- Ha!
This thing works.
(growls)
Okay, buddy, go fetch.
Oh, no!
- Looks like you're out
of Energon, Ironhide.
- You're right.
(snarling)
(sh**ting)
- Keep working, you
mindless minions.
I am going to need all the
Energon there is down there
to rejuvenate Megatron.
- Tidal Wave.
(metal clashing)
(Optimus Prime yells)
- Hurry up!
- Mika, where are you?
- Kicker, what are
you doing here?
- I wish I could tell you, but
there's no time to explain.
We've got to get you out of
here before it's too late.
- We're coming.
- And make it snappy, would you?
The Terrorcons are swarming
every inch of this place.
- Hold your horses, Ironhide,
we'll be ready in a minute.
- What?
- We're creating an Energon
star to restore Hot Shot.
- Well yeah, but do
you think it'll work?
- Mm-hm, I guarantee
it, Ironhide.
- It's almost ready.
It just needs a
minute to coagulate.
- We don't have a minute.
(groans)
- Okay, it's ready.
- We've got to move.
They're coming.
(Terrorcons snarling)
- Hurry, we'll head
out the back way.
- It's an emergency
escape route out of here.
(vehicles revving)
- Hang on, Mika.
We're going to make it.
(vehicles revving)
- Oh, brilliant escape plan.
We're like sitting ducks
out here in the desert.
- Tidal Wave, Tidal Wave.
- Tidal Wave, you're
making a mistake.
- Must revive Megatron.
(expl*si*n)
(Optimus Prime yells)
(vehicle skids)
- No!
We're surrounded.
(expl*si*n)
(Scorpinok yells)
- Okay, you oversized
insect, you're all mine.
- (laughs) Give me your best
shot, then I'll give you mine.
- Transform!
(electronic whirring)
(metal pounding)
- (laughs) Would anyone care
to take on the great Scorpinok?
- It's my duty to defend
them, no matter what.
(Ironhide groans)
This time you won't be so lucky.
Make a run for it!
There isn't much time.
(Ironhide groans)
Bring it on, Scorpinok!
- Ironhide!
- (groans) Don't worry
about me, Kicker.
I'll stall him while you and
the others make a break for it.
- No, we're not
leaving without you!
Now use that Energon star.
- I can't, it's supposed
to be for Hot Shot.
- Use it!
It's your only chance.
No, our only chance.
We're going to toss
you the star, Ironhide.
- I'll try.
(Ironhide yells)
- I grow tired of this.
It's time to destroy all of you.
(Terrorcons screeching)
- Come on, Ironhide.
We've only got one shot at this.
- (groans) Yeah, all right.
Give me that Energon star.
- Heads up!
(laser sh**ting)
(Ironhide shouts)
(mechanical whirring)
- That was almost interesting.
Tidal Wave, we have our Energon.
It's time to retreat.
(whooshing)
(screeching)
- You're not going anywhere.
(lasers sh**ting)
(explosions)
(snarling)
- Energon star...
(electric surge)
(Tidal Wave groaning)
- Man, that has got to hurt.
- [Kicker] What a comedian.
- (yells) Back off, Kicker.
Can't you see we failed?
- [Optimus Prime] Ironhide,
can you come over here?
- [Ironhide] Yes, sir.
What is it, sir?
- [Optimus Prime]
It's time to award you
with a Combination
Spark for your valor.
- Huh?
This isn't some
kind of joke, is it?
- No, Ironhide,
this isn't a joke.
Your performance in battle
was above and beyond
the call of duty, soldier,
and as your leader
I was impressed.
- I owe you one, Ironhide.
- Hot Shot!
It was nothing.
- Quit being so modest,
and let's get going.
- (yells) Whoa, whoo-oa...
- For services
rendered, soldier.
(electronic whirring)
You are now a full-fledged
member of my team, Ironhide.
Welcome aboard.
- I'll make you proud,
Optimus, sir! (laughs)
- I didn't know
Transformers could blush.
(foreboding music)
- This just doesn't
make any sense.
How is it possible Tidal
Wave said "reanimated"?
Couldn't be true.
Could Megatron be awakened?
