"Landmine" - Episode 4
Transcription by Brandon Williams
Crumplezone: Hey, there's some big guy parked up on the road. So, do you think he's friendly?
Ransack: Uhhh... No! Not friendly!
Ransack & Crumplezone: Aaah!
Ransack: Make tracks, buddy! What's with him?!
Crumplezone: Uh, I dunno. Maybe he's related to that cute scooter you dumped. You should've been nicer to her.
Megatron: Ha.
Ransack: Aww, man...
Crumplezone: Looks like we're going bumper-to-bumper. Crumplezone, transform!
Ransack: Ransack, transform!
Megatron: Errr-ah!
Ransack: Aaah!
Megatron: Erggh!
Crumplezone: Ugghh! Ohh!
Ransack: Ahhh. Ohhh.
Megatron: I am Megatron, and now you work for me.
Ransack: Ughh, yeah.
Crumplezone: Yeah, sure. Anything you say, boss.
[Transition]
Optimus: Landmine, are you all right?
Landmine: Oh, uh, yeah. Just feeling a bit useless for being broke down, that's all.
Optimus: Don't you worry, old friend. You'll be a hundred percent and back with us soon.
Landmine: I'm hearing ya loud and clear, Prime. I promise I'll work hard.
Coby: Uh, hey, Landmine. How's it going?
Landmine: Better, kid. Thanks for asking.
Optimus: (VO) Very good. Time with friends is exactly what Landmine needs.
Landmine: So tell me, kids. What brings you around here, huh?
Bud: I wanted to bring you some chicken soup, but...
Landmine: Hahaha...
Optimus: Autobots, it's time for us to plan.
Scattorshot: Well, it doesn't look like we have a whole lotta options in this situation. We gotta find those Cyber Planet Keys before it's too late.
Jetfire: I'm not saying I buy all that malarky, but nothing else has worked.
Overhaul: C'mon! Less talkin', more walkin'!
Jetfire: Wait! Overhaul, where ya goin'? We don't even know where to look yet.
Optimus: More bolts than brains.
Scattorshot: Yeah, I gotta agree with ya. We can't just search the universe, we need more information.
Vector Prime: Very well, Optimus. I'll analyze the Atlantis pattern and attempt to locate the Omega Lock.
Optimus: Excellent, Vector Prime. Scattorshot's right. We need information. All right, the rest of us will go forth and gather Earth data with one primary objective; finding the Cyber Planet Keys. Is that understood?
Jetfire: Right. I'm on it.
Bud: Go forth, I'll do that!
Lori: Jetfire, hold on, I wanna help look too!
Jetfire: Hold on tight, Lori. Take off's gonna be rocky.
Lori: That's cool.
Scattorshot: Cyber Planet Keys, here I come.
Bud: This is so gonna rock!
Jolt: Glad you could come along for the ride, Master Bud.
Optimus: Autobots, let's move out!
Bud: Jolt! Jetfire and Lori just burned us! Can't you fly any faster?!
Jolt: If you wanted to fly fast, you picked the wrong Mini-Con.
Bud: Ughhh.
Jolt: But if you want to surf fast, I can't be beat! As in surf the 'net for Cyber Planet Key info.
Bud: Cool!
Lori: This is wonderful! Everything looks so beautiful from up here.
[Transition]
Optimus: Hey guys, how ya doing on Earth?
Blue Car: Not bad, except I kinda hate the traffic.
Optimus: Hahaha.
Red Car: You know what? The other day I was almost carjacked! Hahaha!
Optimus: Be careful to keep up your disguise. We may need to stay here for a while.
Blue Car: Aw, okay, Optimus. But I really hope we return to Cybertron soon.
Red Car: Yeah, I'd really like to be back home.
Optimus: You just know that my team is doing its best to get you there. By the way, have you seen Hot Shot anywhere?
Blue Car: Hot Shot? Well, I, uh...
Hot Shot: Sweet! Nothing compares to the rush of reving up the RPMs! Huh?
Optimus: Hello Hot Shot.
Hot Shot: Hey Optimus! What are you doing here?
Optimus: Hot Shot, watch that transforming in public.
Hot Shot: Ehh, sorry, Bigbot. I wasn't thinking.
Optimus: Look, we can't press our luck and risk discovery for the sake of fun. Caution is needed around humans. Is that clear, Hot Shot?
Hot Shot: Right!
[Transition]
Coby: Okay, Landmine, now let's test the gears. Why don't you try moving up one of your legs.
Landmine: Hmm.
Coby: So, how did that feel?
Landmine: Not too bad. Feels good.
Coby: That's great! You're recovering really fast.
Landmine: It's all thanks to you, kid. You know, you've really given me a second chance.
Coby: It was nothing, really. I just made a few tweaks to your system. After all, Landmine, you're the one that's doing all the work.
Landmine: Hey Coby, be straight with me, huh? Am I healed, a hundred percent?
Coby: You're doing great, but maybe not a hundred percent.
Landmine: Yeah, I kinda figured. But do you think I could go help the guys search for those Cyber Planet Keys?
Coby: Well, don't you think that's rushing it?
Landmine: Doesn't matter! I just can't sit around here while the other guys are out there risking their necks, y'know.
Coby: Wait!
Landmine: Huh?
Coby: You can't go out looking like that. It's time for you to pick a disguise. Uh, how about that?
Landmine: Ahh, I dunno. Ahh, I can't see myself looking like that, kid. It just ain't me.
Coby: Okay, it looks like you're a picky shopper. How about something in a shovel like that?
Landmine: Hmmm...
Coby: I'd say that's your colour.
Landmine: Mmmhmm... I like it. It's powerful, it's sturdy, y'know... Yeah, it's just my style.
Coby: Go try it on.
Landmine: Landmine, transform!
Coby: Whoa, I dig your new look!
Landmine: Dig! Ha, ha! Hey, that's a joke, right? I get it! Ha, that's a good one, kid!
Coby: Mmhmm.
[Transition]
Coby: So this is where I race dirt bikes with my dad and brother.
Landmine: Two wheels, huh? Ha, ha, ha. I'll stick with four!
Coby: I love it! Just check out the scenery!
Landmine: It's gold!
Coby: My dad says that this isn't just the most beautiful place on Earth, but the most beautiful place in the universe.
Landmine: Yeah, it is beautiful. If I were from Earth, I'd probably feel just the same way as your dad, kid.
Coby: Is your home planet as beautiful as this, Landmine?
Landmine: Hhh... Not right now, kiddo. It just makes me too sad.
[Transition]
Thundercracker: Man, whatcha reckon this Omega Lock thing looks like? Where exactly are we headed?! Got a picture of it?
Starscream: Oh, quit whining and keep searching.
Thundercracker: Ohhh, whining?! I'm thinking -- out loud! Hey, I was talking to you.
[Transition]
Jolt: Any luck, Master Bud?
Bud: Yeah! I just located an Atlantis pattern.
Jolt: Hoo-hoo! Where is it?
Bud: At a museum down in Mexico.
Jolt: Huhh. So Atlantis is in Mexico?
Bud: Can't say that for sure, but I do love tacos.
Optimus: I've received a report from Jolt. They have located an archeological site in Tierra del Sol, Mexico with an Atlantis pattern. This may be the Omega Lock.
Jetfire: I got it. I'm on my way, Optimus.
Scattorshot: Me too!
Landmine: I'm rolling out!
Optimus: Vector Prime, what do you think?
Vector Prime: Well, the data looks promising.
Optimus: Hmmm... This may indeed be the artifact we seek. That means there's not a moment to lose. Autobots, let's roll!
Hot Shot: We're rolling!
Thundercracker: Would you look at that? Everybody's off to a party. I just love parties, don't you, Starscream?
[Transition]
Bud: Hey, you guys! Come over here!
Optimus: Remember, let's keep it quiet.
Jetfire: At this time of night, any folks around should be fast asleep.
Optimus: Then let's not wake them.
Weatherman on Television: And talk about hot out there today, the desert...
Guard: (Snoring.)
Optimus: Jolt, Bud, finding the Omega Lock is excellent work. Thank you.
Lori: Yeah, Bud. Real good job.
Bud: It's cool.
Vector Prime: We need to confirm that it is the Omega Lock.
Bud: So, how do we do that?
Vector Prime: Well...
Thundercracker: Thundercracker!
Starscream: Starscream!
Bud: Hhh!
Optimus: Starscream! Thundercracker!
[Transition]
Crumplezone: Is he mad or something?
Ransack: Ehhh, I dunno. Did we do something to make him mad?
Crumplezone: Yeah, but how could we, Ransack? We ain't never seen him before.
Megatron: Silence yourselves!
Crumplezone & Ransack: Yessir!
Megatron: The two of you work for me.
Crumplezone: Huh?!
Ransack: Work?!
Megatron: You'll be my guides to the Speed Planet, unless you'd rather be destroyed.
Crumplezone: I don't wanna work.
Ransack: It's an offer we can't refuse, Crumplezone.
Crumplezone: This guy is mean. He kinda scares the oil outta me.
Ransack: Uhh, go with the flow.
Megatron: Do you have a problem with my offer?
Crumplezone: No!
Ransack: No, sir!
[Transition]
Thundercracker: Hey, how would you like a taste of my Cyber Key Power?!
Jetfire: What now?
Thundercracker: Thunder Cannon!
Jetfire: Ugghh!
Thundercracker: I dropped you like a bad habit!
Jetfire: I hate this guy!
Optimus: Jetfire, find a way to keep Thundercracker busy and as far away as possible from the Omega Lock.
Jetfire: Will do!
Jolt: Good idea, Reverb. Let's clear the area.
Optimus: Starscream, you're sorely mistaken if you think the Decepticons are getting the Omega Lock.
Starscream: We'll see about that. Cyber Key Power! How do you like me now?!
Optimus: Huh? So Thundercracker isn't the only Decepticon with a Cyber Key.
Starscream: What is it that I see, is that fear in the great Optimus Prime's eyes?
Optimus: Never! Optimus Prime, super mode!
Bud: Aaaaahh! Oh, man!
Jolt: C'mon, guys! It's time to stop, drop and roll to a safe spot before one of us gets hurt!
Guard: (Snoring.) Hmmm. Huh?! (Snoring)
Vector Prime: Errr-egh! For Cybertron!
Starscream: Ergghh!
Optimus: No. We'll take care of the Decepticons. You analyze the Omega Lock.
Vector Prime: Mmmhmm. Leave it to me.
Optimus: You two cover him as he examines to Omega Lock.
Hot Shot: But I want a piece of Starscream!
Scattorshot: Let's crush those creeps.
Optimus: The Omega Lock comes first. With it could come the future of Cybertron. Now go!
Scattorshot: Understood.
Hot Shot: We won't letcha down!
Optimus: You were looking for a fight, you've found it.
Starscream: I'm too powerful to defeat!
Optimus: Hhh...
Landmine: I'm here to prove you wrong, Starscream!
Starscream: Hey, watch where you're going! Huh?
Coby: Hhh. Ugh.
Landmine: Landmine, transform!
Starscream: Landmine!
Landmine: Starscream, I've got a bolt to pick with you!
Starscream: Give me a break. If I wanted to smash up useless outdated parts, I'd go to the scrap heap.
Optimus: Landmine, go help the others. I'll handle this second-rate Decepticon.
Landmine: But...!
Coby: No, Landmine! We both know you're not fully recovered yet! Don't fight Starscream.
Starscream: Aaah. "Oh, please, don't fight Starscream."
Landmine: Ergghh... Hghhh...
Optimus: Landmine! Stand down!
Starscream: (VO) Heh. I'll take out the weak one first.
Landmine: Aah! Optimus! You're hurt!
Optimus: Ugh... Don't worry about me... Retreat now, and guard the Omega Lock.
Landmine: Sorry, I hate to disobey an order, but... Errggghhh!
Starscream: Now I'm mad! Huuurrggghhh! Hmmm. Hmm?
Landmine: No! He's going after the Omega Lock!
Starscream: Vector Prime is up next. Another old man.
Hot Shot: It's up to us.
Scattorshot: Yeah, us and a Cyber Key! Cyber Key Power! Eat this!
Starscream: Egh. You missed!
Landmine: Your luck's about to run out! You beat me once, but I've been recycling punks like you for years.
Thundercracker: Starscream! I can't shake this guy! Take this!
Jetfire: Matching fire! Look out below!
Coby: Huh?!
Lori: Aah!
Coby: Incoming!
Landmine: Coby!
Coby: Eghh. Landmine...?
Landmine: I can't let these kids get hurt.
Scattorshot: A Cyber Key?
Landmine: Cyber Key Power! Don't worry, kids! Cyber Tempest!
Coby: Landmine? Huh?!
Landmine: Hey Coby... You, uh, think you can fix me again?
Coby: You betcha, pal.
Vector Prime: This Omega Lock will not help us! It is an imitation!
Optimus: What?
Vector Prime: It's not the original. This was made only a few thousand years ago. It's too new to be the real Omega Lock. Besides, if it were real, it would be in-sync with my Cyber Key by now.
Red Alert: Red Alert!
Overhaul: Overhaul, transform!
Red Alert: Get lost, Starscream!
Starscream: No Omega Lock, no need for us!
Thundercracker: It was startin' to look too much like an Autobot family reunion anyways.
Optimus: Hhh... What took you so long, Red Alert?
Red Alert: Very funny. I only wish we'd had been here earlier to help out the team, Optimus.
[Transition]
Landmine: Coby, you asked me before if Cybertron was beautiful. I think for everybody, home is the most beautiful place in the universe. And y'know, kid, when I first came here, I only wanted to save Cybertron; Earth didn't really matter to me.
Coby: What?
Landmine: But now, I've gotta save the Earth. 'Cause it turns out some of my best friends live down there.
Coby: Aww.
Landmine: (VO) I mean every word of it, kid. You, me, the Autobots, together, we're gonna save everybody's home.
Vector Prime: It seems our search must continue.
Optimus: Hhhh... I guess we're back to square one, then.
Vector Prime: Fear not, our journey to the ruin was not entirely fruitless.
Optimus: What do you mean?
Vector Prime: I discovered a celestial map at the ruin. And when I studied it, the co-ordinates of the Speed Planet were revealed. There is a Cyber Planet Key there.
Scattorshot: We know the location of one of the Cyber Planet Keys?! That's great!
Optimus: We've got to send someone there. Hot Shot!
Hot Shot: Whoa, "Speed Planet?" Sounds like heaven!
Optimus: That's a great attitude. You'll go, but not alone. Red Alert, team up with Hot Shot.
Red Alert: Very well, Optimus.
Optimus: This is very important. While on Speed Planet, you must be discreet. Keep your identities as Cybertronians a secret, and avoid all contact with the locals. Am I making myself clear?
Hot Shot: Got it. Keeping it on the down-low. The D-L.
Red Alert: Oh, bestill my beating heart. A secret mission with Hot Shot? I'm dizzy.
Hot Shot: Huh? Did you say something, partner?
Red Alert: Oh, uh, no. Nothing.
Bud: Hey guys, you're so lucky! Aw, man, you get to explore like a whole new planet.
Hot Shot & Red Alert: Mmm.
[Transition]
Hot Shot: Whoa! Look at that open road!
Optimus: Autobots, good luck.
Red Alert: Well, see ya soon, friends.
Hot Shot: Here goes nothing!
[Transition]
Hot Shot: This is awesome! A sunny day and an open road!
Red Alert: Remember, we are on a mission, Hot Shot!
Hot Shot: Yeah, yeah, yeah... Road hog!
Red Alert: Whoa! That's the fastest thing I've ever seen!
Hot Shot: Faster than me! I thought I was the fastest thing in the universe. Talk about a letdown.
