Nothing like flying around Saturn

without a care in the universe.

Right, Eagle? You bet, Hawky.

But you know what would make it even better?

A race around Titan!

Ooh, a moon race. I'm in!

I'll even give you a ten-second head start.

Go!

Eight. Nine. Ten!

Za-za-zoom!

Come on, shake a booster rocket!

They're gonna win!

I'm shakin', I'm shakin'!

Aah!

Hawk! Are you okay?

Ah, I feel like I drank

a giant fuel slushie way too fast.

That's because you just flew over an ice volcano...

while it was erupting!

[shivering] Can we go home now?

I can't feel my tail fin.

♪

Eagle! I was watching from the Observatory.

What were you guys thinking,

flying over Titan's active cryovolcano?

Hey, I didn't know it was gonna erupt.

Besides, no one got hurt.

[tires screeching] [gasps]

"No one got hurt"?

Have you seen Hawk?

What are you talking about?

Aah!

Please tell me I'm not that rocket in the mirror!

I'm sorry, Hawk, but ash that erupts

from ice volcanoes is mostly made

of ammonia, water, and methanol.

The combination must have stripped off your paint.

But I like my paint!

Oh, I feel naked without my paint!

Aw, don't worry!

It's just a few scratches and dings.

Girls love that sort of thing.

Right, Robyn?

[sighs] Come on, Hawk.

Let's go see Coot.

A skirmish with an ice volcano

is nothing to sneeze at.

You're lucky you're full-bodied,

or you'd have lost more than paint!

Can you fix me, Coot?

In a jiffy!

But this scraped hull is like a badge of honor.

Sure you want to paint over it?

That's what I said!

Yes! I want to look like me again!

In soothing blue and green.

[humming]

And... [humming]

One old Hawk, comin' up!

Dinky will take care of the paint job.

I'm already a tad late for a conference on the moon.

Coot: [chuckles]

See?

Everything is going to be fine.

We'll meet you in the cafeteria.

Later, buddy. Good race today.

[sighs]

[machinery whirring]

[beeping and whirring]

Oh, can I look now, Dinky?

Aah! That's not me!

Wait! I must be sleeping!

And this is a bad dream!

Ava, tell me I'm dreaming.

Ava: Negative, Cadet Hawk. You are wide awake.

In his haste, Professor Coot

programmed your colors incorrectly.

But, I can't walk around like this!

When will he be back?

hours, minutes.

Correction: he's registered for a buffet lunch.

Make that hours.

Dinky! I haven't been here,

this never happened, and you never saw me

looking like a giant alien space frog.

Good-bye!

Hey, is it true you and Hawk

got hit by an ice volcano on Titan?

Correct-a-mundo, Raven.

Now, where to begin...

How about the part where you wait for Hawk

to get here, since it's his story to tell.

Yeah, yeah.

Where is Hawk, anyway?

Not here. Okay, where was I?

Hawk: Psst! Starling!

Hawk? Is that you?

Shh! Yes.

I need you to deliver a message to Robyn and Eagle.

Tell them I'm not coming to dinner

and I won't see them for another...

hours and minutes.

Can you do that for me, please?

Sure!

But, why are you hiding under that tarp?

Uh... because it's fun under here?

Ooh, it's dark under here, too.

Hey, you're all glittery!

And stripe-y.

No! You're seeing things.

You're young! Your eyes aren't developed.

Oh, my galaxy!

You're the same color as one of my Lunar Ponies!

Hawk: I have to go!

Her name is Solar Sweetie,

and she's my top five favorite.

[slurping]

Mm-mmm.

Good thing I had this emergency fuel box under my pillow.

Who knows when I'll be able

to show myself in public again.

[doorbell ringing]

Go away! No one's here!

Hawk...

I brought my friend to see you.

Is that all right?

No! Let me hide first.

Whoa!

Can I touch your stripe, Mr. Hawk?

Uh, oh... hey, Sparrow.

[gasps] You know my name!

Ahh. Isn't Hawk the coolest rocket

in Stardust Bay?

Because I flew over the ice volcano?

No, silly!

Because you're so yellow and sparkly.

Yeah! No one else has the guts

to wear such awesome colors.

It was a big accident.

And when Coot comes back,

he's gonna repaint so, until then,

keep this quiet, okay?

Uh-huh.

He's so cool!

Robyn: Mm-hmm. [giggling]

Me? Cool?

Nah!

[birds chirping]

Unh!

Oh, sorry, whoever you are.

Hawk?

I didn't even recognize you.

Coot put in the wrong colors!

Go ahead, bring on the jokes.

What's yellow, green, and fluffy,

and comes from outer space?

A "Martian"-mallow?

No, Hawk.

[laughing] Good one.

But, it's not so bad.

Robyn: There he is! See, Crow?

We told you so.

Wow! What a total rebel!

Who, me? Yeah!

You're different from everyone else.

You're wild!

Okay, "fawn patrol," break it up.

Let me tell you about Hawk.

Sparrow: Will you sit with us at breakfast?

I guess. I gotta eat anyway.

Cool. Yay!

Dreamy!

You know... maybe I am rebelling against something.

Robyn, you'll never believe it!

Not now, Eagle.

I hear there's an amazing new rocket on campus.

Everyone wants to meet him.

The amazing new rocket is Hawk.

[cameras clicking]

Ooh, one more, Hawk!

Please?

And, can you pose like a rock star this time?

Sure. You mean like this?

I demand only cranberry rocket fuel!

The fizzy kind.

See? He's all changed.

Just because the younger cadets

are smitten with Hawk's new look--

I've got to get Hawk's autograph!

Okay, just because the younger cadets

and Raven have gone Hawk-wild

doesn't mean he's changed.

Hey, Hawky, let's play some Orb-O.

Ooh, no can do, bro.

I'm hangin' with my fans down at the Lunch Pad.

Don't you mean the launch pad?

[laughing] Oh, Eagle.

No one calls it that anymore.

Let's roll, Hawk Heads.

Robyn, can you believe this guy?

You said he wouldn't change.

Uh, Robyn?

I sense your pain, Cadet Eagle.

But, young rockets often go through colorful phases.

They might be trying on a new personality,

seeking confidence, or simply want to be different.

But, Hawk already has a super great personality

and loads of confidence.

I don't want him to be different.

I want him to be Hawk.

He is still the same on the inside.

No matter how flashy he appears on the outside,

Hawk is still your friend

who raced you around Saturn's moon.

As a wise rocket once said--

Thank you, Headmaster Crane.

Not everyone can pull off a titanium space helmet. Hmm.

♪

What's up, Eagle?

Hawk was just telling us his life story.

And then one day, I was yellow and green.

Boom!

I'd like to borrow your hero for a minute

and challenge him to a race around Titan.

You on, buddy?

You bet!

All: Aww.

But you were gonna teach us the Hawk Hop.

I know, as soon as I get back.

Uh-uh.

Not safe for Hawk Heads.

You can watch from the Observatory.

Hawk: Ooh! I'm free!

No one watching my every move,

no one imitating me.

[laughing, shouting]

Wait-- where's Crow?

Hang on!

What if I get hit by the ice volcano again?

Nah. What are the odds of that happening twice?

Eagle: Za-za-zoom!

You're trying to get me

to damage my rad new paint, aren't you?

Okay, fine. Yes!

Because then I can have my buddy back.

What are you, jealous?

No!

It's great everyone thinks you're cool.

You are!

But not because of some dopey stripes.

Aww, really, Eagle?

Robyn: Guys, Crow is up there.

He snuck out to be like Hawk,

and he's going to try to fly over the volcano.

Eagle! Get him out of there, now!

[grunting]

♪

Crow: Aah! [grunting]

Unh! You okay, Crow?

Uh, yeah. Thanks, Hawk!

Cool scratch mark, by the way.

Huh?

Wow! Did you see Crow?

Sparrow: Huh! Let's go tell everyone!

Presenting... a brand-new old Hawk.

Yay!

Now, there's the Hawk we know and love.

Welcome back, buddy!

You know, I learned something

when I was a rebellious rock star.

Here we go. No, really!

I learned that being cool isn't nearly as great

as being with my best friends.

Or should I say, my Hawk Heads?

[laughing]

All: [playing and laughing]
