Beast Wars: Transformers (1996) s02e05 Episode Script

"BEAST WARS"!
[ ROARS ]
[ BEEPING ]
CONFIRMING KNOWN PREDACON INSTALLATIONS.
[ BEEPING CONTINUES ]
SO, MEGATRON, YOUR PLAN PROCEEDS EVEN WITHOUT THE DISK.
IF IT IS SUCCESSFUL, WHAT WILL BECOME OF ME AND OF CYBERTRON?
AM I REALLY WILLING TO BETRAY MY PREDACON HERITAGE
FOR THESE -- THESE TRANSMETAL MAXIMALS?
IF NOT, WHAT WOULD YOUR REACTION BE?
DINOBOT, REPORT TO THE COMMAND CENTER IMMEDIATELY.
I NEED YOU TO LEAD A MISSION INTO PREDACON GROUND.
HMM.
ON MY WAY.
NOTHING LIKE TRAVELING, TRANSMETAL FIRST CLASS, EH?
[ LAUGHS ]
CARE FOR A CUSHION? MAYBE A LITTLE HOT OIL?
THIS IS A STEALTH MISSION, VERMIN.
FOR ONCE IN YOUR MISERABLE LIFE, KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT.
HMPH. YOU REALLY GET OFF ON THIS COMMANDER GIG, DON'T YOU?
PREDACONS LIVE TO COMMAND.
YOU'RE A MAXIMAL NOW, REMEMBER?
AND THIS IS A RECON JOB, NOT GREAT WAR THREE.
WE'RE ON PREDACON GROUND.
THERE IS ALWAYS BATTLE HERE.
Silverbolt to Commander.
REPORT TO COMMANDER.
THERE'S A JAMMING STATION HERE, ALL RIGHT,
BUT I AM NOT SCANNING ANY PREDACONS IN THE AREA.
MOVE INTO BACKUP POSITION AND HOLD.
RATTRAP AND I WILL GO IN FIRST.
UNDERSTOOD.
OH, MAN. GREAT PLACE FOR AN AMBUSH.
ALL THE MORE REASON TO CEASE YOUR BABBLING
AND CONCENTRATE ON THE TERRAIN.
HEY, GIVE ME A --
AAAAAH!
AHA, A TRAITOR AND A RAT.
OH!
TERRORIZE!
UHHHHHH.
ANTS.
OH, THIS I DON'T NEED.
RATTRAP, MAXIMIZE!
HUH?
HOLSTER IT, RAT FACE.
I WOULDN'T WANT TO BACK-SHOOT A HOT PISTOL LIKE YOU.
UGH!
AAH!
UGH!
AAAAAAAAH!
AAAAAAH!
STAND YOUR GROUND, TRAITOR!
[ GROWLS ] YOU'RE ON MY GROUND, INSECT.
[ BLASTERS FIRING IN DISTANCE ]
HMM.
INFERNO!
DINOBOT WILL NEED MY HELP.
HMM, WASPINATOR GIVE DOGGY-BOT SURPRISE!
MAXIMI--
[ HOWLS ]
[ GUN HAMMER CLICKING ]
HUH?
[ GROWLING ]
BEAST
MODE.
YOU HAVE SERVED THE ROYALTY WELL, WASPINATOR.
WASPINATOR NOT SERVE.
WASPINATOR RULES!
[ LAUGHING ]
I WILL BRING THE TRAITOR TO THE ROYALTY.
YOU BRING THE FUZOR.
WHERE IS THAT LOW-DOWN MAXIMAL VARMINT?
HE GOT ME WITH A CHEAP SHOT.
AND WHEN I FIND HIM --
NEVER MIND THE RAT.
WE HAVE BETTER PRIZES FOR OUR QUEEN.
RETURN TO THE NEST.
THAT BOT SURE DOES TALK PECULIAR.
OH, TWO-HEAD HELP WASPINATOR.
FUZOR HARD TO CARRY!
I LOOK LIKE A PACK BOT TO YOU, BUG EYES?
[ GROANS ]
OH, MAN.
THIS AIN'T GOOD.
[ Imitating Quickstrike ] HEY, UH, BUG EYES
HUH?
TWO-HEAD?
THIS HERE WILL HELP YA.
[ GIGGLES ]
HMM, HOW THIS HELP?
JUST, UH, PUSH THE SWITCH, YOU TIN-HORNED IDJIT!
HUH?
WASPINATOR NOT -- OH!
[ Normal voice ] I LOVE THAT GUY.
HE'S DANGEROUS. FINISH HIM NOW.
AND MISS THE CHANCE TO CHAT WITH OUR DEAR OLD COMRADE IN ARMS?
I THINK NOT.
WAKE HIM.
[ GROWLS ]
AH, IMPRESSIVE AS ALWAYS, BUT ULTIMATELY FUTILE.
DAMAGE ME, AND YOU'LL BE SCRAP IN A NANOCLICK.
[ GUNS COCKING ]
[ LAUGHS ]
AS MIGHT YOU BE, IF YOUR LOYAL TROOPS OPEN FIRE.
BUT THAT WOULD BE A WASTE OF TWO GOOD PREDACONS.
PREDACON?
I THOUGHT YOU WERE A MAXIMAL NOW.
TIMES HAVE CHANGED.
All: HMM
[ SIGHS ]
I CANNOT BELIEVE I BLUNDERED SO BADLY.
WE MUST RESCUE DINOBOT.
KEEP YOUR FUR ON THERE, RIN TIN TIN.
YOU'RE IN NO SHAPE FOR ACTION.
BESIDES, I NEED YOU TO FLY PAST MEGGS' JAMMING CURTAIN
AND CALL IN THE HEAVY HITTERS.
I'LL, UH, TIGHT-BEAM YOU WHEN I FIND CHOPPERFACE.
WHY SHOULD I BELIEVE
THIS IS ANYTHING OTHER THAN A TRANSPARENT PLOY
TO SAVE YOUR OWN HIDE?
YOU KNOW ME BETTER THAN THAT.
SO I THOUGHT,
BEFORE YOU CHOSE TO FIGHT AT OPTIMUS PRIMAL'S SIDE.
I THOUGHT YOU'D LED US TO THE WRONG PLANET,
AND YOU BETRAYED ME.
TREACHERY KEEPS THE WITS SHARP.
INDEED.
AND YOURS ARE RAZOR-SHARP,
WHICH IS WHY I BELIEVE VICTORY WILL SOON BE IN YOUR GRASP.
I WOULD, UH, SHARE IN THAT VICTORY.
COMPUTER, VOICE CODE DINOBOT.
CHANGE ACTIVATION CODE.
[ BEEPING ]
Activation code change complete.
FROM THIS MOMENT ON,
I AM MAXIMAL NO MORE.
THIS PROVES NOTHING.
ANYONE CAN CHANGE THEIR CODES WILLINGLY.
LET ME VERIFY DINOBOT'S PROGRAMMING.
I DON'T THINK DINOBOT WOULD APPROVE
OF YOU LOOSE IN HIS CIRCUITS.
NOR WOULD I.
STILL, TARANTULAS HAS A POINT.
HOW DO WE KNOW YOUR HEART IS TRULY PREDACON?
HOW ABOUT A PREDACON CHALLENGE?
I BET QUICKSTRIKE CAN SHOW US
WHETHER DINOBOT IS WORTHY OR NOT.
COULDN'T YOU, SUGAR-BOT?
YEAH. HEH HEH.
IF YOU'D LIKE TO SEE ME WHUP HIS SORRY BUTT,
I'LL BE GLAD TO OBLIGE, MA'AM.
I COULD USE SOME FUN.
EXCELLENT.
DINOBOT, DO YOU ACCEPT THE CHALLENGE?
HMPH.
I HARDLY CALL IT A CHALLENGE, BUT I ACCEPT.
[ LAUGHING ]
SIMPLE RULES --
SURVIVOR WINS.
ON MY MARK
BEGIN!
[ ROARING ]
HAH!
I'M FASTER THAN YOU THOUGHT, FOSSIL FACE!
[ SNARLS ]
-AAAH! -AAH!
[ CHUCKLES ]
THIS IS GETTING QUITE AMUSING.
[ LAUGHS ]
[ GROWLS ]
BLACK BELT TIME!
NOBODY BITES MY TAIL AND GETS AWAY WITH IT.
QUICKSTRIKE, TERRORIZE!
AAAAAAAAH!
THAT ALL YOU GOT, PARTNER?
NO, IT ISN'T.
AAAAAAH! AAAH!
[ GROWLS ]
IT'S OVER.
FINISH HIM.
HE IS A GOOD FIGHTER.
UNDER MY TRAINING, HE WILL SERVE US WELL.
PERHAPS YOU'RE RIGHT.
INFERNO, AID QUICKSTRIKE.
YES, MY QUEEN.
I WAS NOT AWARE YOU HAD GIVEN YOURSELF A NEW TITLE.
THE ANT HAS SOME FAULTY PROGRAMMING [CLEARS THROAT]
BUT HIS LOYALTY IS WITHOUT QUESTION.
NOW THAT YOU'RE ONE OF US AGAIN,
THERE'S THIS LITTLE MATTER OF THE GOLDEN DISKS
YOU STOLE FROM ME.
I ASSUME YOU STILL HAVE THEM.
I GAVE THE ALIEN DISK TO RHINOX.
UNFORTUNATE.
AND THE OTHER?
HIDDENFROM BOTH SIDES.
WHERE, EXACTLY?
[ SIGHS ]
MAXIMAL GROUND.
I'LL GET IT FOR YOU
TOMORROW.
I'M AFRAID THAT WON'T DO.
I WENT TO A LOT OF TROUBLE TO STEAL THAT MAXIMAL RELIC.
I WANT IT BACK -- NOW.
[ SNIFFING ]
UH-OH.
RATTRAP, MAXIMIZE.
INFRARED.
TALK ABOUT LUCKING OUT.
WHERE IS IT?
AH, EXCELLENT.
WITH THIS LITTLE BAUBLE,
WE WILL WRITE A NEW CHAPTER IN THE HISTORY OF OUR RACE.
OR DESTROY IT.
[ Thinking ] EITHER WAY, I WILL KNOW THE TRUTH AT LAST.
I ASSURE YOU, ALL WILL HAPPEN AS I HAVE CALCULATED --
NOT THAT IT WILL BE ANY CONCERN OF YOURS.
UHH!
LOOKS LIKE I GOT HERE JUST IN TIME.
WRONG AS USUAL.
UHH!
DID I MISS SOMETHING?
WELCOME HOME, DINOBOT.
RATTRAP MIGHT HAVE BACKUP.
WE SHOULD GO.
YES.
AS SOON AS YOU EXTERMINATE THE VERMIN.
HE IS DEFEATED.
IT IS UNNECESSARY.
CALL IT A FINAL TEST OF LOYALTY.
I ALWAYS KNEW YOU WAS A STINKING PRED.
RATTRAP, THIS IS SILVERBOLT.
OPTIMUS AND I ARE ON YOUR POSITION.
SEE YOU IN A FEW NANOCLICKS.
MAKE IT FASTER THAN THAT!
YOUR AMBITION HAS MADE YOU INSANE, MEGATRON.
IT WILL DESTROY BOTH MAXIMAL AND PREDACON
AND ALL WHO CAME BEFORE.
THEN RETURN TO YOUR MAXIMALS,
IF THEY WILL SUFFER A TRAITOR LIKE YOU IN THEIR MIDST.
DINOBOT!
YOU'RE ALL RIGHT.
WHAT'S THE SITUATION, RATTRAP?
WELL, YOU JUST MISSED MEGATRON.
OH, AND, UH, OLD CHOPPERFACE HERE
DECIDED TO PLAY PREDACON AGAIN.
WHAT?
DINOBOT?
IT IS TRUE.
I HAVE BETRAYED YOU.
HOW COULD YOU?
YOUR HONOR
IS NOT MAXIMAL HONOR.
IT IS PREDACON HONOR.
I AM PREDACON.
NO, MEGATRON IS CLOSE TO ACHIEVING A GREAT VICTORY.
I FOOLISHLY BELIEVED I WANTED TO BE PART OF IT.
AND NOW?
I WISH TO FIGHT WITH YOU UNTIL WE WIN THE BEAST WARS
OR ARE DESTROYED TRYING.
IF YOU WILL NOT HAVE ME, I WILL FIGHT MEGATRON ALONE.
MM.
I WAS A PREDACON ONCE.
YOU GAVE ME A CHANCE.
RATTRAP?
WH-- TH-- OH, OH, FOR BOOTING UP COLD.
YOU KNOW HOW I FEEL ABOUT LIZARD BREATH.
YOU CAN'T TRUST HIM.
AND HE SMELLS BAD.
THEN THERE'S THE TEETH.
YOU EVER SEEN HIM EAT?
BY THE PIT, HOW MUCH OF THIS DRIVEL MUST I ENDURE?
BUT I GUESS I'VE KIND OF GOTTEN USED TO HIM.
YOU BETTER CHANGE YOUR ACTIVATION CODE BACK.
I AM GRATEFUL.
[ POWERING DOWN ]
[ BEEPING ]
Activation code change complete.
I MUST DISCUSS SOMETHING OF GREAT IMPORTANCE WITH YOU.
TIME ENOUGH FOR THAT BACK AT BASE.
SEE YOU THERE.
[ ENGINE REVS ]
MAXIMAL TAXI ON THE WAY HOME.
YOU NEED A RIDE?
SO, I AM TO BE PUNISHED AFTER ALL.
YOU KNOW, I THOUGHT YOU
WERE REALLY GONNA SCRAP ME BACK THERE.
HOW COME YOU DIDN'T?
WELL, CONSIDER THAT A REHEARSAL FOR THE REAL MOMENT --
A MOMENT I WILL CHOOSE.
[ CHUCKLES ]
GLAD TO HAVE YOU BACK, DINOBUTT.
THE PLEASURE
[ GRUNTS ]
IS ALL YOURS, VERMIN.
[ GRUNTING ]
