- WHERE'S CHEETOR?
- CAT WAS TOUGH.
HE WENT OUT FIGHTING.

DEVICE IS OF ALIEN MANUFACTURE.
FUNCTION HAS BEEN ALTERED BY MEGATRON.
- NEVER AGAIN, MEGATRON.
- [growls]
[roars]
- OH! WHAT IS THAT THING?
- THIS IS MY FAULT, RHINOX.
I WAS ROUGH ON HIM,
SO HE TRIED TO PROVE SOMETHING.
- CHEETOR?
- UNH. [crash]
- CHEETOR!
- [snores]
- HEY, OPTIMUS.
HEY, HOW'S OUR BOY?
- [sighs] FINALLY ASLEEP,
DESPITE THE DAMAGE.
I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY HE WON'T USE THE CR-CHAMBER.
- WELL, UH, MAYBE HE'S TRYING TO PROVE SOMETHING.
- MM. I THINK IT GOES DEEPER THAN THAT.
SCAN REPORT?
- ALL GRIDS QUIET.
- WELL, LET'S HOPE IT STAYS THAT WAY.
SEE YOU IN THE MORNING.
- QUIET ENOUGH FOR A LITTLE RAT NAP.
[yawns]
[ticking]

OW! UNH.
[groans]
[gasps, groans]

- NO! I JUST DON'T WANT TO!
OPTIMUS. WHERE'S OPTIMUS?
- ZAP HIM.
[buzz] - AAH!

WHAT HAPPENED?

THAT'S WHAT HAPPENED.
HEY, OPTIMUS, IT WAS BIG.
IT WAS UGLY.
IT GOT CHEETOR.
- [roaring]
[roaring]
- HM. THAT SOUND.
I'VE HEARD IT BEFORE.
WELL, SOMEONE'S OUT FOR A LITTLE MOONLIGHT STROLL
AT MACH 2.
AND THAT SOMEONE IS FAMILIAR.
ZOOM IN AND MAGNIFY.
A TRANSMETAL II!
AS I SUSPECTED.
THAT MEDDLING FELINE DESTROYED MY SYSTEM,
AND IMPROVED HIMSELF IN THE PROCESS.
- HM, IMPROVED?
- [growls]
- [yelps]
- THAT CREATURE IS MINE.
- OH.
- BRING HIM IN!
[thunder]

[groans]
[roars]

REPAIRED?
AH!
- UGLY CREATURE.
[laughs]
- [roars]
[snarls]
[roars] - UH, UNH.
- AH!
OH, IT DIDN'T HAPPEN.
IT COULDN'T HAVE.
WHAT AM I?
WHA--WHAT'S HAPPENING TO ME?
- ANY SIGN OF OUR TABBY?
- EH, NOT SO MUCH AS A WHISKER.
YOUR, UH CONCERN DOES YOU CREDIT.
- AH, I'M FULL OF SURPRISES.
- YOU FOUND NOTHING?
- OH, I WAS UP CLOSE AND PERSONAL WITH THAT FREAK-BOT,
AND I AM TELLING YA,
SPOTS IS SPARE PARTS.
- DON'T GIVE UP SO EASILY, RATTRAP.
SO FAR, WE'VE FOUND NOTHING.
WHAT THAT MEANS IS OPEN TO INTERPRETATION.
- WELL, IF YOU'VE GOT A THEORY,
I'M SURE WE'D ALL LIKE TO HEAR IT.
- NO, NOT TILL I'M CERTAIN.
NOW GET SOME REST, ALL OF YOU.
WE'LL RESUME THE SEARCH IN TWO CYCLES.
REPLAY SECURITY HOLOGRAM, SECTION 0058 TO 0063.
FREEZE HOLOGRAM.
- YOU WANTED TO SEE ME?
- WHAT HAPPENED TO CHEETOR ON THAT MOUNTAINTOP?
AND I MEAN, WHAT REALLY HAPPENED?
- YOU HAULED ME IN TO ASK THAT?
ASK THE CAT.
- [grunts] I'M ASKING YOU.
- THEN YOU'RE WASTING YOUR TIME.
AH! UNH.
- NOW YOU LISTEN, HARD-HEAD.
CHEETOR'S GONE, AND I THINK YOU KNOW SOMETHING.
SO YOU WILL TALK, OR I WILL RIP OUT YOUR CORE PROCESSOR
AND EXTRACT THE INFORMATION PERSONALLY.
- WELL, SINCE YOU ASKED SO NICELY.
YOUR LITTLE KITTY CAT RIPPED SOME KIND OF ALIEN GIZMO
OFF OF MEGATRON'S ORGANIC TRANSMETAL UNIT.
- DID HE SUCCEED?
- YEAH, BUT THE UNIT WAS ALREADY ACTIVATED.
- HE WAS CAUGHT IN THE OVERLOAD.
- I HAVE ALREADY DESTROYED THE GIZMO.
I'M SORRY.
I DIDN'T KNOW THAT WAS WHAT HE'D BECOME.
- [grunts]
[sniffs]
OH, WASPINATOR DETECTS STINK OF UNNATURAL TRANSMETAL.
- [snarls]
- OOPS. WASPINATOR EXCLUDE PRESENT COMPANY.
- I WILL SUBDUE AND RETRIEVE THE TARGET.
- WAIT!
NEED PLAN.
WASPINATOR IN CHARGE.
- I AM THE PLAN.
- [garbled shouting]
[groans]
- [growls]
TARGET HAS FLED,
FOR NOW.
- RATTRAP, YOU AND SILVERBOLT WILL TAKE GRID ALPHA TWO.
- HAVING A PICNIC WITHOUT ME?
- HEY-HEY, SPOTS! [laughs]
HEY, YOU'RE LOOKING GOOD.
YOU KNOW, FOR A DEAD-BOT.
- CHEETOR! WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?
- SORRY, BIG-BOT, I WAS, UH,
TAKING CARE OF THAT MONSTER THAT TRIED TO RECYCLE ME.
- REALLY?
- OH, YEAH, YEAH!
IT WON'T BE BOTHERING US AGAIN,
YOU CAN COUNT ON THAT.
- HM.
WELL, SINCE THAT'S TAKEN CARE OF,
NO POINT IN KEEPING YOU TWO.
CHEETOR AND I WILL BE IN AFTER I'VE EXAMINED
THE CYBER-CREATURE'S
REMAINS.
[sniffs]
- [sighs]
I DON'T SEE WHY WE HAVE TO DO THIS.
DON'T YOU TRUST ME?
- NORMALLY, YES.
BUT, AT THE MOMENT, I THINK YOU'RE HIDING SOMETHING.
- I'M NOT HIDING
ANYTHING!
[grunts]
WHY IS EVERYONE GIVING ME SUCH A HARD TIME?
- BECAUSE WE CARE.
AND BECAUSE I THINK I KNOW THE TRUTH.
I JUST WANT YOU TO TRUST ME ENOUGH TO TELL ME.
- ALL RIGHT, ALL RIGHT!
[sighs]
IT'S LIKE THIS.
[twig snaps]
- [sniffs]
[beeping]
CHEETOR, LOOK OUT!
[grunts]
UNH!
- BIG-BOT!
NO!
- NO! OPTIMUS!
HUH? [growls]
[groaning]
[roars]
- OH, LIZARD-BOT, STAND ASIDE NOW.
WASPINATOR WILL TAKE KITTY-BOT TO MEGATRON.
- [growling, snarling]
[roars]
- UNH. CHEETOR.
WATCH OUT FOR THE OTHER BOT!
- WHICH BOT?
OH, YOU MEAN THIS BOT RIGHT HERE?
- [yelps]
- [snarls]
- YOU HURT MY FRIEND, FREAK-BOT.
- YES, AND NOW, I SHALL NEUTRALIZE YOU.
- I DON'T THINK SO.
IN FACT, I THINK IT'S TIME TO SHRED SOME PRED.
[gasps] - [grunts]
- [gasps]
[snarls, roars]
[roars]
- [grunts, roars]
- UNH, THIS IS OPTIMUS.
WE NEED BACKUP!
- OH!
[grunts]

[both growling, snarling]
- THIS IS NOT OVER!
- [roars]
[snarls] - [groans]

- SILVERBOLT, NO!
THAT'S CHEETOR.
- CHEETOR?
- MEH, PUSSY CAT USED UP HIS FIRST LIFE.
NOW HE'S ON HIS SECOND.
- UNH.
- [snarls]
- THE TRANSITION'S BEEN ROUGH.
HIS BEAST MODE IS STILL FERAL.
- [roars]
- EH, LOOKS LIKE HE CAN'T GET OUT OF IT.
- [snarls]
- HE'LL LEARN.
HE JUST NEEDS A LITTLE GUIDANCE AT THE MOMENT.
- [growls]
- IF I CAN JUST REACH HIS SPARK--
- [roars]
- EASIER SAID THAN DONE.
- EASY. EASY, CHEETOR.
USE YOUR SPARK, GET CONTROL.
- YEAH, HEY, NOBODY'S GONNA HURT YA.
- [snarl, roar]
- US, I'M NOT SO SURE ABOUT.
- [growls]
- WE'RE HERE, CHEETOR.
ALL OF US. YOUR FRIENDS.
WE KNOW YOU CAN DO IT.
- [growls]
- DO IT, CHEETOR.
MAXIMIZE!
- [growls, snarls]
MAXIMIZE!
- YES!
YOU DID IT!
- [grunts]
OPTIMUS.
BACK OFF, OKAY?
YOU'RE EMBARRASSING ME.
YOU LOOKIN' AT SOMETHING?
- OH, JOY.
CYBER-PUBERTY.
- SO, THIS IS THE NEW, IMPROVED CHEETOR.
- YEAH, THIS IS IT. [chuckles]
TEACH ME TO PULL THE PLUG ON MEG'S MACHINERY, HUH?
- HM.
IT'S GOT SOME NICE FEATURES.
I COULD GET USED TO IT.
- YEAH?
I MEAN, UH
WHATEVER.
- OH, DON'T LET IT GO TO YOUR PROCESSOR, BLONDIE.
I'M JUST SAYING THAT A TRANSMETAL II BODY
DOESN'T LOOK TOO BAD.
- HUH?
LIKE I CARE WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE.
IT SHREDS PREDS, OKAY?
- OH, THAT'S THE SPIRIT.
- OH, YEAH. [chuckles]
I THINK I LIKE IT.
- SO DO I.
