It's gold! We finally struk gold!
All that diggin'. Fantastic!
We're rich, we're rich! Gold!
- Hey! What's going on?
- Run! Run for it!
Take cover, boys!
- Laserbeak, transform.
- Ravage, transform.
The humans must not escape.
Laserbeak, Ravage. Return.
- Starscream, report.
- Hail, Megatron.
We've captured all but one of the humans.
And I shall destroy him.
- Someone help us, please.
- No!
He must be permitted to call for help.
It is my plan.
- Somebody, anybody, please.
Decepticons attacking.
- Alert, alert! Autobots assemble at once.
- Aw, wouldn't ya know it,
Every time I get sent to load my cable relays,
Something happens.
- Action first, Gears.
Maintainance later.
- That's easy for you to say.
Your pulleys don't squeak.
- Your sqeakin's not the problem.
It's your squawkin'.
The Decepticons are attacking a mining camp.
We're going in to stop them.
Autobots transform.
- All secure, mighty Megatron.
Do I have your permission to terminate these puny creatures?
- The humans are of no concern to me.
Autobots attack!
- So, the Autobots have finally arrived.
- Autbots regroup.
Give up, Megatron. You've lost.
- On the contrary. I've just begin to triumph.
- Let's get out of here.
- This way.
- No over here.
- We're caught in the middle.
- Autobots don't fire.
We can't endanger these men.
- Your pathetic concern for humans,
demonstrates that you're weak, Optimus Prime.
That is why I shall destroy you.
- Look sharp, Autobots.
- Megatron energized those boulders.
- Get away!
- Look out!
Now, Decepticons, bring me the Autobot Gears.
Prepare to withdraw.
Just as soon as I melt Gears into a pool of base metal!
Fool!
That Autobot is the key to my plan!
A plan which will bring us final victory.
Yes, Skywarp, take him!
He is going to be most valuable.
- They got Gears.
Behold my creation; the solar needle.
And you, Autobot.
You will help me pierce the fiery heart of the Sun to harness its power.
Aw, go ding your diodes and get defunct, Megatron.
I'm not helping you do zilch.
Starscream?
Perhaps your null-ray will make our guest more cooperative.
A secret sensor scan of all the Autobots,
revealed that you alone have the special circuit I need.
What happened?
I suddenly feel so goodnatured.
Ah, obviously this circuit modulated your personality.
But that can wait.
Now watch and marvel as I harness the mighty power of the Sun!
Our first priority is to locate and rescue Gears.
- What's happenin'?
- Solar flares!
- Secure the base!
Megatron is behind this.
I'd bet my titanium torsion bars on it.
- The ultimate power of the universe is mine, mine, mine!
Nothing can stand against me!
- Fill the energon cubes, Autobot slave.
- Sure thing, Starscream.
Always happy to oblige, but I'm not sure why.
- It won't take long for Optimus Prime to find me,
and when he does...
I'll have a shocking surprise ready for him.
- Teletraan I has confirmed my fears.
Someone has tapped into the heart of the Sun,
creating a dangerous instability.
Unless this process can be stopped,
the Sun will explode in slightly less than two Earth hours.
- It's got to be that Decepti-bum Megatron.
- Yes, Megatron.
And I've triangulated his location to the geographic center of Africa.
- And Gears is there with him.
- Then what are we waitin' for?
Let's go!
- Autobots transform!
Move out!
- What's happening, Megatron?
The Earth seems unstable.
- Don't worry about things that don't concern you, Starscream.
The Autobots are coming.
That is all that matters now.
- Man, look at that patch o' leaves!
Unless we get ourselves a real bad hedgeclipper,
we ain't goin' noplace!
- Jazz. Sunstreaker.
Laser us a road.
- Instant freeway comin' up!
- I should be very angry at you, Megatron.
You are an evil son of a retro-rat,
but for some reason, I just can't get too upset.
- Why, you little rustbucket, Prepare for oblivion!
- No!
- Aah!
You almost destroyed the solar needle!
- Fool!
One more mistake like that,
and I'll permanently deactivate your bio-circuits!
- Quickly, Autobot slave.
Fill those energon cubes.
- H-h-hey! No problem, Starscream.
love bein' a slave!
Or do I?
- We've reached our destination.
- Well, then, let's stop gabbin' and start blastin'!
- No, we can't! Gears could get hurt!
- Bumblebee, if we're to save the Sun, we've got to take that risk.
Autobots, fire!
- It's a reflective energy shield!
- It seems the Autobots enjoyed my force field surprise!
We've got to get passed Megatron's energy shield,
before the Sun explodes.
- But how, Prime?
We can't get around them, and we can't get over 'em!
- There's one possibility, but it's extremely hazardous.
Megatron's force field dome has one weak spot,
the hole through which the Sun's energy enters.
If we could block that opening...
- Prime, no one can survive up there.
Not even you!
- It's the only way to stop Megatron.
Stand back.
- No, Prime!
I'm more expendable than you, I'll do it!
- Forget it you two! This is my stall!
Cliffjumper! No!
- My protective force field is shattered!
Decepticons, to your stations!
Prepare for attack!
- Autobots, forward!
Where am I?
How'd I get here?
What am I doing here?
- Look, It's Cliffjumper! He made it!
Move out!
Autobots, careful.
Those energy beams could be lethal.
Oh, no, ya don't!
Your circuit stays right here!
- Gears!
Hold on, buddy, I'm on my way!
- I should have destroyed you when I had the chance,
but Megatron can't save you now!
- I really hate to disappoint you, Starscream,
but you better look behind you!
- Do you seriously expect me to fall for such a stupid trick?
Aahh!
- Laserbeak, transform.
Attack!
Ravage, transform.
Attack!
- You junkyard reject. Outta my way!
- Hey, thanks for the assist, little buddy!
Say, isn't this a fun fight?
- Megatron, you've got to stop this madness.
Your solar needle is causing the Sun to self-destruct!
- You expect me to believe you?
At last, Prime.
This is your finish!
Prime!
- Gears, I asked you for a favour.
- A simple case of displaced circuitry.
Prime! The energy grid!
- Look out!
- You'll pay for that, Autobot!
- Gears!
- Hold it, Prime!
This encounter is over, Autobots.
Throw down your weapons.
Do it or Optimus Prime will be nothing but a shadow in your memory banks!
- Don't listen to him!
Destroy the solar needle!
- You've lost, Prime.
The universe is mine!
- Megatron, there won't be any universe!
Your solar needle is going to make the Sun explode in a matter of astroseconds!
- I have no time for your fairy tales!
Gears!
- How can I help you, Megatron?
You rotten hunk o' scrap.
- I want you to repair the solar needle.
- Happy to be of service.
I wish I wasn't, but I am.
Gears, stop! That's an order!
You won't disappoint me, will you?
- Well, no, I wouldn't want you to feel bad.
- What did you do to Gears, you monster?
You turned him nice.
I employed his personality circuit for my purpose,
and he has become my slave!
- Megatron. Time is running out!
- Yes, Prime, it is.
For you!
Decepticons, prepare to terminate Optimus Prime!
At last!
- Prime. There must be somethin' you can do.
- There is.
Megatron!
would you give a condemned mechanism one last request?
- Yes, but be quick about it!
- Gears, I wonder if you would do me a favour now.
- I thought you'd never ask!
- Gears, no. No!
- Hey, Gears is part of the Autobot team again!
- Now that makes it a whole new ballgame!
- Megatron is mine!
Autobots, go get 'em!
- Decepticons, battle stations!
Do you hear me?
- This time I shall show you no mercy!
- Right!
This time the only thing you're gonna show me is...
Your caboose!
- Ravage, Laserbeak, return!
- Your troops have deserted you, Megatron.
- Turn off the solar needle!
- Never!
I'll destroy the universe first!
- Don't let 'im get away!
- There's no time.
The Sun will explode in less than a minute.
- Ratchet, Wheeljack, on the double!
To restore the Sun's equilibrium,
you've got to bypass the solar needle's memory.
Right. All we need to do is...
Disconnect that wire! - Disconnect that wire!
- You mean that wire!
- Aw, you've got a blowout in your binary circuit.
It's that one!
- Keep your fingers crossed!
- It's all over.
The Sun has been stabilized.
All that's left is to destroy Megatron's solar needle forever.
- Excuse me, please!
I don't wanna be pushy, but aren't you forgetting something?
- Your special circuit card, Gears.
Here you are.
- Uh, just a minute.
We took a vote, and uh...
well, we decided we like Gears the way he is now.
- Yeah! A real photovoltaic pussycat.
- I see.
Well, as long as you all agree...
Hey.
If you guys don't give me my circuit back,
I'm gonna start kickin' transistor.
- Alright, Gears, don't get your capacitors in an uproar.
There.
- So, when do we roll outta here?
This jungle humidity is givin' me a cramp in my chronometer.
- H-h-hey, now that's our Gears.
- And my pullies are squeakin' again.
- Alright, let's blast that solar needle and roll out!
- I suppose you want me to do that.
- Be my guest.
We're waiting, Gears.
- Ok, but this probably won't work.
- Well, Gears, I guess you got a bang outta that, huh?
- Very hilarious!
You know what a blast like that does to your sequential camshaft?
I'm talkin' vibration!
And then there's a tremor in my gyroscope, too,
that's makin' me very dizzy.
And besides that...
Hey, can't you even wait for me?
Hey, guys!
