Mechanic: Aren't you supposed to be at the station to say goodbye to your brother?
Coby: Aw, I wanted to, Mr. Stanton. But you know these new repair techniques I've been learning? Well, I have some friends who sort of need my help a whole lot.
Mechanic: I've never seen these friends.
Coby: Hhh... Huh? Like I said, my friends! Coby here. Yeah, I'm free.
Scattorshot: We've got a little mechanical problem...
[Transition]
Coby: Overhaul, it's snagged on a huge gnarly tree root. I think you'd better back off.
Overhaul: I never back off. It's not my style. Now step aside!
Coby: Whoa, you smashed right through it.
Overhaul: Forget about it. Coby, he may be damaged. Can you check his systems?
Coby: You got it.
Shovel: You all have your hands full with this mission.
Coby: Yup. Well, it's kind of important. If Megatron finds the Omega Lock before us, you can kiss this -- ugh -- entire galaxy goodbye.
Shovel: Maybe we can help you look for it, if you wouldn't mind.
Coby: Huh?
Shovel: There's more of us civilian Autobots around and Cybertron is our homeworld.
Coby: Uhh, well... Hmmm...
Overhaul: Hey, don't look at me.
Coby: ...But...
Overhaul: I'm just the hired muscle. Ask the big boss.
Coby: Hh. Yeah, right.
[Transition]
Optimus: So, you want to join the mission.
Shovel: If you'll have us, commander.
Optimus: Consider yourself part of the team. Brave humans like Coby are already helping us. If every Autobot on Earth helps too, then we've got a fighting chance.
Shovel: Right!
Scattorshot: We have the scheduled transmission from Speed Planet.
Optimus: Link it through.
Scattorshot: I'm linking.
Optimus: Any leads on the Cyber Planet Key?
Red Alert: Nothing definite. We're... still looking, Optimus...
Optimus: So, nothing?
Red Alert: Yes, well, eghh, as far as I can gather at this point, Hot Shot is trying to follow up on some new leads.
Optimus: Ahh, I'm sure you're doing the best you can, Red Alert.
Red Alert: Yes, Optimus.
[Transition]
Red Alert: Why couldn't I tell Optimus the truth? That Hot Shot's destroying himself -- dangerously modifying his systems, just to win a race and jeopardizing a mission! Even if the Cyber Planet Key is the Ultimate Race Trophy, that's just to great a sacrifice to make for all of us. Hmm?
Dirt Boss: Whoever this Megatron guy is, he can eat my dust! I don't take orders from off-worlders. I'll defeat Override my own way. Transform!
Ransack: Ransack, transform!
Dirt Boss: Come and get it! Hrgh.
Ransack: Egh.
Crumplezome: Arrghhh!
Dirt Boss: Aaaah!
Ransack: This guy's a little thick-headed, isn't he? Must be the titanium skullplate. What do you think?
Crumplezone: You do the thinking, Ransack. I just smash stuff.
Dirt Boss: Don't try to play me! Cyber Key Power! Dirt Dog Attack!
Crumplezone: Hrrrgh.
Dirt Boss: Target destroyed.
Crumplezone: Hahahahahaha!
Ransack: Hahahahaha!
Dirt Boss: What?!
Ransack & Crumplezone: Cyber Key Power!
Ransack: Ransack Trasher Beam!
Crumplezone: Crumple-Crusher Blast!
Dirt Boss: Aaah! Ugh.
Red Alert: Aaahh... No, I can't fight them! That's how Hot Shot blew his cover! It's strictly against our orders!
Dirt Boss: Aaaahh!
Ransack: Wouldn't you rather have us as friends than enemies? Join up with Megatron and we'll get rid of Override together!
Dirt Boss: Argghhh, arghhh, arghh...
Red Alert: That's it. Huh?
Override: Override, transform! What do you think you're doing?
Ransack: What does it look like we're doing? Being helpful citizens, of course!
Crumplezone: He fell down and he's crying like a little bitty girl!
Dirt Boss: Rrghh, rgh.
Override: He just happened to fall down, huh? Here, let me help you.
Dirt Boss: Nrgh. Ughh... Ugh?
Override: Mmm-mmm.
Dirt Boss: I don't need your charity.
Override: Fine.
Dirt Boss: What you said about joining Megatron... count me in.
Ransack: Ehh-heh, heh, heh!
[Transition]
Optimus: Vector Prime, we must locate the second Cyber Planet Key. It's urgent.
Vector Prime: I understand. We are nearing the source.
Optimus: Just how close are we?
Vector Prime: This could be it!
[Transition]
Vector Prime: (VO) Jungle Planet... may have the second orb wherein lies a Cyber Planet Key. Storm clouds like a living entity swirl and strike, huge volcanos rain down smoke and fire and our enemies may already be there.
Starscream: This is a waste of time. There's no sign of civilization!
Megatron: You sure of that?
Starscream: Huh?
Megatron: Well, that's why I'm in charge and you're not. Take a look at this.
Starscream: Huh. That's it!
Megatron: Indeed... Huh?
Snarl: Halt, intruders!
Undermine: Identify yourselves.
Megatron: I am Megatron.
Starscream: And I'm your worst nightmare.
Undermine: Take another step and it'll be your last.
Megatron: Don't make threats you can't back up, little man.
Snarl: We're sacred guardians of the shrine.
Megatron: Heh, heh, heh... Stand aside.
Snarl & Undermine: Huh?
Undermine: Hold it! Undermine Demolition!
Megatron: Huh?
Undermine: Ergh!
Megatron: Fool!
Snarl: You'll regret that!
Starscream: Cyber Key Power! Rrrgh! Yah. Hrgh. Raaah!
Snarl: Hmmm.
Undermine: Raugh!
Scourge: Stop!
Undermine & Megatron: Hrggh --Megatron: Huh?
Starscream: Another bad boy.
Megatron: I see him.
Scourge: Why do you defile this sanctum?
Megatron: Drop the mystic drivel. We want the Cyber Planet Key.
Scourge: The Cyber Planet Key?
Snarl: Whatever you seek, there's nothing for you here.
Megatron: Now why is it I don't believe you?
Scourge: Arrogance and ignorance are a rank combination. Come forth, if you dare!
Megatron: My pleasure. Hahahahahahaha...
Scourge: Scourge, transform! Hrgh. Hrgh.
Megatron: What is this -- thing?
Starscream: I've never seen a transformation like this.
Scourge: Cyber Key Power! Raugh!
Megatron: Huh...
Scourge: Witness the three-headed dragon!
Snarl: Snarl, transform!
Undermine: Undermine, transform!
Megatron: Quite a menagerie.
Scourge: Now then, if you've come here to threaten me, you've made a fatal mistake. If you want my help, then let us speak like civilized beings.
Megatron: Heh, heh, heh.
[Transition]
Shovel: The key to the Omega Lock is the Seal of Atlantis.
Bus: The Seal of Atlantis? I'll pass it on.
Sportscar: I heard it from a bus. It's called the Seal of Atlantis.
Taxi Cab: That twisted maniac Megatron is looking for it too!
Mailbox: This is it.
Motorcycle: That's the Seal of Atlantis! I've seen that thing.
Mailbox: Really?
Motorcycle: Definitely. I'm on it.
Thundercracker: Party time! Starscream's gone and the sky's all mine! Aah, who's this wannabe? A motorcycle with no driver, must be working for the Autobots. I think I'll have me a little fun. Think fast! Now dance!
Phone Booth: Aaah! A Decepticon attacking a civilian! I gotta call the base! Headquarters! This is an emergency!
[Transition]
Optimus: Autobots, move out! Everyone on high alert!
Landmine: Ready to meet the enemy!
Overhaul: ...And kick some butt!
Scattorshot: All Autobots deployed!
Jolt: Don't forget the Mini-Con!
[Transition]
Motorcycle: Aaah!
Thundercracker: It was fun while it lasted, little feller, but now the party's over! Haha! Aaah! Trying to ruin my fun, eh, Autobot?! Eat plasma!
Jetfire: Aaah!
Thundercracker: Heeheeheehee! Can't the drop on me!
Optimus: Think again, cowboy!
Motorcycle: Awww...
Lori: So where exactly does it hurt?
Motorcycle: My... rear wheel.
Coby: I've gotcha covered.
Optimus: Fighting us is fine, but attacking a helpless civilian is low even for you!
Thundercracker: Fine, I'll take it out on you. Cyber Key Power! Thunder Cannon! Aah!
Optimus: You crossed the line, Thundercracker. Now you're going down.
[Transition]
Scourge: I should have destroyed you, but your story very interesting.
Megatron: It's not just a story. The same black hole that consumed Unicron will destroy us all -- permanently... unless the Cyber Planet Keys are all found.
Scourge: Aah... And you think one is hidden inside these temple walls? Hmm? It will take time to verify what you've told me, but I suspect it's true. But there's a deeper truth aswell.
Megatron: Huh?
Scourge: You say that your goal is to save the universe -- that's a lie, isn't it?
Starscream: Why you piece --Megatron: Silence! We must stop the black hole or we all perish. But afterward, there may be opportunities. Heh, heh, heh, heh...
Scourge: Hmmm...
[Transition]
Scattorshot: Cyber Key Power! Light Grenades!
Thundercracker: Aaah-aah!
Landmine: Cyber Key Power! Tornado Torpedo!
Thundercracker: Whooaaa, whoaa, whoaaa!
Jetfire: Cyber Key Power! Afterburner Blast Attack!
Thundercracker: Aaah-oooh!
Optimus: Cyber Key Power!
Overhaul: Ho, we hit 'im with four different attacks!
Jetfire: Maybe that'll convince him to stop going after helpless innocents.
Optimus: Are you okay?
Lori: So, can you rev up?
Motorcycle: I'll try.
Lori: All right!
Bud: Yeah!
Motorcycle: Hey, that's better than before! Excellent!
Landmine: You've got real talent, Coby!
Optimus: Jetfire, return to base. You know your assignment.
Jetfire: Find the Omega Lock.
Motorcycle: I know where it is!
Optimus & Jetfire: Huh?
Motorcycle: I was on my way to tell you. That pattern you're looking for, well, I saw it!
Jolt: What pattern?
Motorcycle: The Atlantis Seal! I'm not a dirt bike, but I like to ride out in the desert, you know, where there's no humans to see me. Well, I saw that pattern on a rock formation. I think I can lead you there.
Vector Prime: Is this the location?
Optimus: Yes, and we've brought the humans.
Bud: It's over there! The Seal of Atlantis.
Vector Prime: All right. Bud, Lori, Coby, listen closely. Can you hear the frequency?
Bud: Uh-uh.
Lori: No...
Coby: We don't hear anything.
Vector Prime: I'm afraid this is just a copy. If it were real, the humans would hear it.
Motorcycle: Gosh, I'm sorry. I - I thought this was the real thing.
Coby: Hey, you tried. That's what counts.
Lori: Well, next time you might find it.
Optimus: That's right.
Motorcycle: Huh?
Optimus: Keep looking. If you and your friends spot anything, alert us at once.
Motorcycle: Yessir!
Kids: Heheh.
Vector Prime: The inscription does list some specific co-ordinates, perhaps the location of a Cyber Planet Key. We should investigate at once.
Optimus: Good news! Who's up for a road trip?
Jetfire: Sounds good!
Landmine: Me too!
Overhaul: I'm in.
Bud: Me too, Optimus!
Jetfire, Landmine & Overhaul: Huh?
Coby: Bud, this is serious!
Bud: If only humans can hear that noise then one of us should go. Come on, doesn't that make sense to you, Scattorshot?
Scattorshot: Well, it would if you had about ten tons of metal armour on ya. Try growing a laser cannon, that might help.
Bud: Yeah...
Optimus: Listen up. Landmine, Overhaul, you'll be the advance team.
Landmine & Overhaul: Right!
Scattorshot: There ya go.
Bud: Uh huh.
Coby: Wait a minute, Bud was right!
Lori: You need us!
Bud: Huh?!
Jolt: Huh?! What are you thinking, you're humans!
Lori: And only humans can hear the Omega Frequencies!
Coby: You're gonna need us on this mission and we wanna do our part!
Lori: We humans have great features. We're lightweight, don't need oil and we fit in your pocket.
Coby: And I can help with repairs! You even said I had talent!
Optimus: You also have a wild imagination.
Coby: Wha -- what do you mean?
Optimus: You imagine I'd actually send you to another planet!
Lori: Yeah, but we can take care of ourselves.
Jetfire: Not against Megatron ya can't. And he's probably on that planet right this very minute.
Coby: Yeah, but, uhh...
Landmine: Don't ya get it, kid? We can't afford to lose ya! You're the only ones on our team who can hear the Omega Frequency. That's your part of the job.
Overhaul: Let us do the dirty work. That's our part of the job.
Optimus: For the moment, stay strong and be ready when we call you. Vector Prime, open the dimension gate.
Vector Prime: Mmm.
Optimus: Overhaul! Landmine! Go!
Overhaul: Comin' through!
Landmine: Hang in there, Coby. We'll need ya soon!
Coby: Aaah!
Landmine: Aaaah!
Scattorshot: He's back!
Thundercracker: Back with a vengeance, reloaded and ready to kick some Autobot butt. Cyber Key Power! Thunder Cannon, charge up and fire!
Vector Prime: Ugggh!
Optimus: Look out! Aaah!
Thundercracker: Yeehaw! I scared Prime so bad, he dun dropped his load! Ha, if I destroy him now, even Starscream will have to kick my afterburner. Haha. Locked on target. Yeehaw!
Coby: Scattorshot! He's waiting for you!
Scattorshot: You're right. Optimus Double Blaze!
Thundercracker: They faked me out!
Bud: You were just kiddin'. You knew what to do all along.
Scattorshot: Uhh, sorta...
Landmine: Commander, Overhaul went through the dimension gate alone. He could be in danger. I've gotta catch up with him.
Optimus: Right. Let's get you over there fast. I'll ask Vector Prime to open the gate.
Vector Prime: Optimus, I am injured. My systems are badly damaged. I cannot open the dimension gate. Forgive me.
Scattorshot: Let's see if we can reach Overhaul. This is the Cybertron team calling Overhaul. You there, big guy? Come in!
Overhaul: Overhaul here. I read ya, but you're breakin' up like crazy. Do you read me? Scattorshot, are ya there? Nothin' can get past this lightning. Hhh. Maybe if I get up there... Overhaul, transform!
[Transition]
Starscream: Like I said, we should've just crushed them and taken the Cyber Planet Key.
Megatron: And like I said before, that's why I'm still in charge and you're still a flunkie. We use these beast-bots as long as it's convenient. And then, we'll crush them.
Starscream: In that case, request permission to return to Earth, sir.
Megatron: Hmm. Granted. Dimension gate, open!
Overhaul: I always get the worst assignments... This planet is a pit. What the?! Starscream! He's going too fast! He'll rip up the geosphere! Whoa-whoa! This place is coming apart! Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa... ugh! Hhh-hhh-ugh... Lava! Aaaaaahhhh!
[Transition]
Optimus: Keep trying to reach Overhaul! Stay on him!
Jetfire: Will do.
Scattorshot: Come in.
Coby: Hey, is that Overhaul calling?
Scattorshot: No, it's from one of the civilians. You know, the network of helpers. Hello, are you in trouble?
Submarine: No, no trouble. Just I found something here I think you wanna know about.
Scattorshot: What is it?
Submarine: The Seal of Atlantis...
