02x02 - A Bright and Shiny Future

[bunniefuu]

Step on it, Chance!

I wanna get back to the garage in time
to catch the David Litterbin Show.

You got it!

-Chance, why are you stopping here?
-This is my old neighborhood, buddy.

And this is where I used to hang out.

Hey! Are you gonna read 'em
or you gonna buy 'em?

This ain't no library, bud!

You got the latest copy of Kat Kommandoes?

Just came in.
Hey, don't I know you?

You look kinda familiar.

It's me, Pop! Chance, Chance Furlong.
And my best buddy, Jake.

Well I'll be!
Chance Furlong!

You always did like
those Kat Kommando comics,

and you were always readin' 'em for free!

Same old Pop.

Yeah, I wanted to be a good guy
just like the Kat Kommandoes.

And you made it, too!

I was so proud when I heard
you became an Enforcer.

I always hoped you'd have
a bright and shiny future!

But, then I heard...

That we got booted outta the Enforcers?
Yeah, well, that wasn't exactly our fault.

We're still tryin' to be good guys, though.
You take care of yourself now, Pop.

This neighborhood doesn't seem
to be gettin' any better.

Don't worry about me, boys!
Old Pop Perkins is a survivor!

You might not get us
back in time for Litterbin,

but if ya hurry you still might beat the rain.

-Hey, who said you could read that first?
-You rather I drive?

No way. Okay you can read it,
but don't bend the pages.

-SWAT Kats, come in!
-Yes, Miss Briggs?

I'm on Old Megakat Bridge.

It's the Pastmaster!
He's back!

Hold on, Miss Briggs!
We're on our way!

You puny Enforcers can't stop the Pastmaster!

Why don't ya call in the SWAT Kats?!

This is one Enforcer who
doesn't need any help.

I can handle that little troll myself!

Felina! Didn't I give you orders to stay put?

Can't hear ya, uncle, it's too windy!

Call ya back after I throw a net over this creep!

Felina! Oh I should throw that
niece of mine off the force!

But my brother would never speak to me again.

And she's too good an Enforcer!

You're history, Pastmaster!
I'm bringin' you in!

Foolish girl!
It's the SWAT Kats I want!

You got 'em, Pastmaster!
Where can we drop you off, Lieutenant?

Thanks, but I can find my own way down!

Just stay put, Felina.

SWAT Kats, I've been waiting for you!

I've just come back from
the future and I've altered it!

This guy's been traveling
through too many time-zones.

I hear ya!
Let's take him down!

Octopus Missiles locked!

Now, attack!

Crud! That thing's thrown us
outta control! Gotta break free!

Too late, SWAT Kats!

The SWAT Kats!
They're gone!

We're free!

Yeah, but where
the heck are we!?

Welcome to the future
Megakat City, SWAT Kats!

Except now it's Metallikat City and I'm in charge!

-You mean we're in charge, don't ya Molly?
-Whatever!

I just had to see the look on your faces
when you saw the future I arranged for you.

Now, I'll return to mess up your past!

You're not going anywhere except
into one of our work camps! Get 'em!

But-but I helped you take over the city so
I could destroy the SWAT Kats for all time!

-We had a deal!
-I lied. Sue me!

We can destroy the SWAT Kats ourselves!

-What kind of crazy world is this?!
-One with too many robots in it!

Blowtorch Missiles, deployed!

They didn't even phase 'em!

Must get my watch.
No!

Do not let the SWAT Kats escape!

They are non-metallic creatures and
must be made our sl*ves...

along with the rest of katkind!

Looks like those chrome-plated creeps
have taken over the city!

So this is the bright and shiny
future Pop Perkins predicted for me!

Well, we're gonna do somethin' about it, buddy!

-Those robots are still on our tail!
-Not for long!

Yes!

Radical flyin', T-Bone!

But we're banged up pretty bad.
Better head for the salvage yard.

If it still exists in this stainless steel world.

What?! How could you let the SWAT Kats escape?

Don't blow a circuit, Molly.
We've got this whole city wired.

Gimme the control matrix!
I'll send out more Metallitack Units!

Speed it up, you two!

I don't believe it! Look!

It's the SWAT Kats!
They're still alive!

But it can't be.
The robots destroyed 'em!

SWAT Kats, help us!

Looks like we're gonna have to
find another garage, Razor.

Aw crud, we're hit!

And we've got company!

Launching Tarhead m*ssile!

He's blinded!

Gotta find a place to put her down, and fast!

Guess Megakat swamp's my only choice.

It's nice to see something non-metallic, even you.

Those rivet-heads did some real damage, bud.

Yeah, it doesn't look good.

And it's lookin'
worse by the minute!

But we are not goin'
down without a fight!

Hold your fire!

We're kats, too.

Lieutenant Feral?

-Professor Hackle! It's the SWAT Kats!
-Amazing!

You're alive!

So far, this is the only part of the future I like.

We all thought you and the
Turbokat were destroyed.

I saw it with my own eyes.
Your jet exploded!

How did you two hotshots
manage to get out?

Same old Feral.

So glad to see you back, SWAT Kats.
I'll arrange a parade.

Same old Manx.

We thought you two were dead.

Well maybe our future selves are,
Miss Briggs, but we're from the past.

That crazy Pastmaster dragged us here.

He was mumblin' something
about changing our future.

He changed the future
for everyone in Megakat City!

My peaceful robots were doing
much of the work in Megakat City,

until the Pastmaster arrived,

and revived my two
old headaches,

the Metallikats.

Those two never were any good no matter
how hard I tried to reprogram them.

They started turning all my good robots bad,

making them imprison all non-metallic creatures,

using them as forced labor,
to make bigger and badder robots.

Nothing could stop them!
Not even the SWAT Kats.

Only our small band of resistance kat
fighters remains uncaught.

But now that you SWAT Kats are back,

maybe we have a chance to overthrow the robots.

Yes, we need all the help we can get, SWAT Kats.

It won't be enough!

Get going! We'll cover ya!

Get in, Mayor!

C'mon, we've got more firepower in the jet!

-Crud!
-Tarface is back!

Go faster, Callie!
Faster!

Looks like we're still in one piece, bud.

Yeah but what about the others?

The Mayor and Miss Briggs are gone,
and it's all my fault!

I should've melted down
those Metallikats long ago!

There must be some way to stop
these renegade robots, Professor!

Perhaps.

If I could get into Metallikat headquarters to
reprogram the central robot control matrix.

Impossible! My Enforcers tried that,
and we're all that's left.

But you didn't
have the Turbokat.

Neither do we!

But, perhaps if we all work together,
we can fix your jet.

-Cool setup, Professor!
-Once an inventor, always an inventor.

-Glad you two could finally join us!
-Let's get rid of 'em!

No, stupid! They're gonna help us
round up all the stray kats!

Go, turn on the camera.

Alright, you're on.

Attention! This is Molly Mange, ruler of Metallikat
City, with a warning to all non-metallic creatures!

You must give yourselves
up by sunrise, or I-

-We!
-Whatever!

We will destroy the Mayor
and Deputy Mayor!

That's my watch!
I want it back!

See all you kat wimps by sunrise!

-We're out of repair time, buddy!
-Roger that, we're goin' in!

Launching Cyclotron!

See ya at Metallikat headquarters!

Non-metallic lifeform! Stop!

You don't get a ticket for runnin' stoplights, bud!

Razor!

Mini-Cement Launchers!

Nice shootin', pal.
Sorry, I couldn't save the Cyclotron.

At least you're okay, but we're gonna
have to hurry! It's almost sunrise!

-Get your metal paws off me!
-You're coming with us!

It's the assembly plants for you!

Resistance will be met
with termination!

Deploy Mini-Turboblades!

Pop, are you okay?

Do-do I know you?

Halt! Alert!
Three non-metallic lifeforms in sector-

I want my watch!

This is your fault! I want out of this
awful future! I want my watch!

Not so tough without it, are ya?

Subtitled by :- [font face="Stencil"]NB[/font]asterd

Calm down or we're all gonna
wind up in a Metallikat work camp!

I want my watch. Help me get it and
I'll get you out of this tin-can timezone!

Fine. Then you'll have to help us get in
to defeat the Metallikats.

And I have an idea that's just
crazy enough to work.

Looks like we caught that puny Pastmaster, Molly!

Have him brought up to our control room.

Well, good morning, Pastmaster!

Ready to be destroyed in front of a live
TV audience, along with Manx and Briggs?

This all your fault, Pastmaster!

That's it!
I've played this game long enou-

We're on the air! Good mornin'
Metallikat City, good-bye Pastmaster!

Whatever happened to ladies first?

It's the SWAT Kats!

And it doesn't look like they're
comin' to give themselves up, Mac.

My robots'll destroy 'em!

My robots!

-Whatever!
-Hey, Enforcers are flyin' that thing!

-Where are the SWAT Kats?!
-The SWAT Kats are right behind ya, Molly!

What?

Molly! They shorted out
the robot control matrix!

I'm gonna short them out!

Give me my watch!

Get off of me you little pest!

Molly, it's the Professor!
He's comin' to reprogram us!

He's gotta catch us first!
Come on!

Glad you could make it, Lieutenant!
We'll handle it from here!

If, uh, you don't mind.

Give yourselves up, Metallikats!
It's all over!

It ain't over, doc!

Mac, it's the SWAT Kats!

-Ready, Razor?
-Roger! Bolo Missiles, locked!

Bingo!

Destroy those non-metallic SWAT Kats!

My reprogramming has begun.

From now on, robots and katkind
will live in harmony once more.

No!
Traitor!

The Professor sure works fast.

You're under arrest, Metallikats!

And I'm leaving! So long, SWAT Kats!
Hope you enjoy the future!

-That doublecrossin' troll!
-I expected as much.

Razor, I think we made it!

Yeah, now it's time to give our little
friend a one-way ticket back to the past!

No!

Nice to see good ol' Megakat City again, eh partner?

Yeah, maybe now I'll have time
to see how this darn comic ends.

Razor, don't bend the pages!
