Transformers: Rescue Bots (2011) s02e04 Episode Script
Tip of the Iceberg
[mysterious theme playing.]
Find anything? Not in this fog.
Sir, driftwood could easily be mistaken for a sea monster.
Perhaps that is what the captain saw.
But this driftwood apparently circled the ferry on three separate days.
Keep looking.
Unless it comes right up to the boat and knocks, I don't think [crashing.]
Would someone care to answer that? Cody: Ice? But it's not even winter! Over there! Iceberg! [crowd yelling.]
[gasps.]
A routine patrol with four bots in stasis years later awoke in the strangest of places Earth was their home now and in addition Optimus Prime gave them this mission learn from the humans serve and protect live in their world earn their respect a family of heroes will be your allies to others remain robots in disguise Rescue Bots roll to the rescue humans in need heroes indeed Rescue Bots roll to the rescue Rescue Bots with Cody to guide them and show them the way Rescue Bots will be saving the day Rescue Bots roll to the rescue Rescue Bots 2x04 - Tip of the Iceberg [dramatic theme playing.]
Police bot, push us away from that ice! [crowd clamoring.]
[grunting.]
[crowd sighs.]
Sea monsters and warm weather icebergs? Dad! Something moved on top! You certain, son? Kinda looked like a person.
Chase: Excellent aim, sir.
Though I am puzzled as to what was gained by throwing away your com-unit.
If someone is stranded on that hunk of glacier, Dani and Blades can track the signal right to them.
[suspenseful theme playing.]
We must be getting close.
Speaking of close, how about we fly at a higher altitude? Higher? Alert the media.
Well, it's a known fact that sea monsters like to pull low-flying helicopters right out of the air.
Did you just make that up? It could happen.
Iceberg dead ahead.
[dramatic theme playing.]
[mysterious theme playing.]
[com-link buzzing.]
Here's dad's com-link.
Well, if anyone was here, they're gone now.
Cody: What's that? Hmm.
Blades, the de-icing foam.
Question.
If no one is here, why are we? Where's your spirit of adventure, Blades? I keep it back at the firehouse.
It's some sort of control panel.
[beeps then rumbling.]
Cody didn't really just push that.
[screams then grunts.]
Blades, are you okay? Say something! No more pushing random buttons.
Sorry.
[mysterious theme playing.]
What kind of iceberg is this? It's not an iceberg.
It's a ship covered in ice.
Let's look around.
Excuse me, but exploring ghost ships requires the whole rescue team.
And the navy.
And I'd give Optimus a call too! Huh.
Here's the ship's log.
It says we're on the S.
S.
Isolde.
Cody, call this in to dad.
I'll search for any passengers.
The Isolde? And it doesn't look like anyone's been inside here for years.
Probably because that freighter was lost in 1966.
You know something about it, dad? The Isolde was used to transport experimental tech to Griffin Rock.
So what happened? The captain and crew had to abandon ship after certain cargo became unstable.
It says here the captain was Zachary Burns.
Ah! Great grandpa? Yep.
He never talked about it, but whatever happened onboard really spooked him.
So finish the search, and hightail it off of there.
Is this your great-grandfather, Cody? I'm not sure, I've never seen a picture of him.
But if it is, I bet my dad would love to have this.
He and his grandpa were really close.
[grunts.]
Dani: Hey, guys.
Didn't find anyone onboard.
But wanna bet that's what's causing the deep freeze? Because someone left the power switch on.
[screams.]
Blades! Uh, hold on, you'll be all right.
Brr! No more pushing random toggle switches either.
Can you fly? Try and s-stop me.
[dramatic theme playing.]
Dani: Cody, let's move it! [mysterious theme playing.]
According to Doc Greene, lab records from 1966 Show most of the Isolde's cargo was top secret.
Except for this, the subzero expander.
[Blades screams.]
Divert your eyes, Blades.
Think warm thoughts.
Says here it was intended to restore melting polar caps by generating fresh ice.
Heh.
Too bad their subzero doohickey was a foul ball.
Thing's obviously a hazard.
We can't just leave something like that drifting around where people might run into it again.
Both: I say we blow it up.
Huh? Figures it would take explosives to make you two agree.
But we can't destroy great grandpa's ship.
And not recovering that old tech would be a missed opportunity.
As much as saving the Isolde would mean to me, I'm with the bomb squad on this one.
We leave in five.
We're going back out there? Some of us.
Sorry, son, you've had enough thrills and chills for one day.
[groans.]
[dramatic theme playing.]
Heatwave: Rescue Bots, roll to the rescue! [sirens wailing.]
[mellow theme playing.]
"Captain's log, may 25th, 1966.
"Rough seas.
First mate reports a crate has broken open.
"as a result, the device inside has activated.
Awaiting instructions from the Griffin Rock lab.
" [dramatic theme playing.]
Power up! And energize.
[beeping.]
[bomb beeping.]
We got ten minutes, team.
Then boom goes the dynamite.
[alarm buzzing.]
[gasps.]
Wait, something's moving in the water! And I think it's alive! Sea monster! Boulder: Whatever it is, it's gonna get caught in the blast.
We have barely two minutes.
Blades! [dramatic theme playing.]
[bomb beeping.]
[both grunt.]
[suspenseful theme playing.]
It might be prudent to move everyone behind us, sir.
Wait! That's no shark.
Chief Burns, you and your ham-fisted robots are trespassing.
Doctor Morocco! That's two mysteries solved.
The sea monster and the iceberg man.
You have a lot of nerve showing up here, Morocco.
There's still a warrant out for your arrest.
Pish-posh.
The Mayor and I patched things up as soon as I returned his missing schooner.
What did you mean by we're trespassing? Finders keepers.
Pfft! Like that'll hold up in court.
Unfortunately, it will.
Naval salvage laws say that whoever finds an abandoned ship Morocco: Gets to claim it and its cargo.
Signed by your Mayor this very morning.
The S.
S.
Isolde and everything on board belongs to yours truly.
Cody [over radio.]
: I'm calling the Mayor now, dad.
Doctor Morocco, some of that cargo is really unstable.
Seriously, do you not see the ice? Such concern does warm the heart.
That said, I demand that you cease interfering with my salvage operation.
- Dad? - Ah.
The Mayor confirmed it.
The Isolde belongs to Doctor Morocco.
All right, team.
We've done all we can here.
[ominous theme playing.]
Unbelievable.
[suspenseful theme playing.]
"Final log entry.
"We've received instructions from the Griffin Rock lab to abandon ship" Dad! Listen to captain Burns' final log entry.
"Any attempt to move the damaged subzero expander will likely cause it to explode" [all gasp.]
"and flash freeze everything within five miles.
" That's why great grandpa never went back for it! Morocco putting only himself in danger is one thing.
Cody, check for any other craft in the area.
[dramatic theme playing.]
Cody: The ferry! Captain Shaw, turn around! You have to change course! Shaw: Attention, all passengers! Please take shelter in your cars immediately! And welcome to Griffin Rock.
[passengers chattering.]
[suspenseful theme playing.]
Doctor, you need to evacuate now! [groans.]
Chief Burns, I've grown weary of this debate.
Your grandfather's ship is now mine.
The expander is going ballistic.
Fire bot, assist Doctor Morocco into his submarine.
[in robotic tone.]
: As commanded.
Unhand me! Oh, chief Burns, I'll have you up on charges! Do you hear? That man is not humankind's greatest example.
[suspenseful theme playing.]
I don't think we're gonna make it out of range in time.
Vehicle modes! Now! [dramatic theme playing.]
Cody [over radio.]
: Captain Shaw, one more mile and you're in the clear.
[suspenseful theme playing.]
Not again.
Oh, no! [somber theme playing.]
Oh, my.
[gull cawing.]
Uh, Ch-Chase? I am f-fine, sir.
Except for the p-p-parts which are I-immobile.
Unh! Kade, Dani, Graham, do you read? [grunting.]
Come on, Heatwave, open up! Can't.
F-frozen solid! Unh! I-I th-think I can move us.
No, don't! [Graham screams.]
[groans.]
We moved.
Dani: Try opening your canopy.
Still stuck.
Wait! No.
Still stuck.
[groans.]
[passengers chattering.]
[upbeat theme playing.]
Dad, are you all right? Anybody? [sighs.]
[engine starts.]
[dramatic theme playing.]
[car engines starting.]
Chase: Cody, you are a sight for cold optics.
Just give it a second to work, Chase.
Heatwave: Me next.
[grunting.]
Kade's overstayed his welcome.
Nice work, Cody.
Oh, you're a life-saver.
I'd have busted out of there sooner or later.
Did the town get hit? It's only icy up to the shoreline.
Looks like you got the worst of it right here.
Dani, check the subzero expander while we help Doctor Morocco.
That machine has frozen its last bot.
When I'm warmer, I'll jump for joy.
Now look who abandoned ship.
Well, that means he's all right.
So what now? Drive home or wait for the ice to melt? Hmm.
Doesn't look very thick.
Probably already melting, at least at the outer edges.
Melting? But I saw four cars from the ferry driving across the ice back to town! Can you get there in time? We're on it.
Rescue Bots, roll to the rescue! [dramatic theme playing.]
The ship's breaking loose from the ice field! Everyone, get to the boat! [dramatic theme playing.]
[grunting.]
[suspenseful theme playing.]
[grunts.]
[gasps then grunts.]
Watch out! Dad! Careful! We're taking on water! Don't panic.
Make sure your life jackets are secure! [gasps.]
[suspenseful theme playing.]
Didn't see that coming.
[upbeat theme playing.]
[in robotic tone.]
: You are safe now.
[in robotic tone.]
: Drive carefully.
Avoid ice.
- Was that ? - Burns: Yes.
Doctor Morocco actually came to our rescue.
I'm sure he thinks that makes up for everything else he's done.
Still, I never would have guessed that man had a grateful bone in his body.
Chase: A grateful bone? Where exactly on a human is that located? Probably next to the funny bone we've heard about.
The ferry's back, but no sign of the Isolde.
- Do you think Morocco took her? - Well, chances are.
Let's just hope any tech he got away with is too old to be useful.
[doorbell rings.]
What is it, son? The portrait that was hanging in the Isolde's cargo hold.
Grandpa Zachary.
I haven't looked into that face for a long, long time.
Hmm, maybe there's hope for Doctor Morocco yet.
[ominous theme playing.]
Oh, my, just what the doctor ordered.
