MORE THAN MEETS THE EYE, PART THREE
(Opens with Lugnut unleashing missiles on Ironhide)
LUGNUT: For the glory of the Decepticons!
IRONHIDE: Two can play at the big explosions game... (He shoots at Lugnut but it just bounces off)
LUGNUT: Pft. Your firepower is no match for my might! (He prepares his Punch of Kill Everything)
BARRICADE: Huh? Um... Lugnut, I don't think--
LUGNUT: Silence, Barricade! This Autobot must learn not to mess with the Decepticons!
BARRICADE: But isn't it--
LUGNUT: Say your prayers, Auto--
(Optimus Prime comes out of nowhere and rams into him, knocking him off his feet.)
OPTIMUS PRIME: I think it's beast that you say yours.
(Bumblebee and Ratchet are also here.)
BARRICADE: Oh, this is just great.
IRONHIDE: Uh, thanks for the help, guys, but I didn't need it.
OPTIMUS PRIME: You know me, Ironhide. I always make sure you've got it handled.
BUMBLEBEE: I've got 'em both cuffed, boss-bot. Shall we take them to base? ['Bee is so badass he can just handcuff Lugnut like nobody's business]
OPTIMUS PRIME: I don't think so, 'Bee. I can't trust a bot like Lugnut in our HQ. Ratchet, contact Jetfire and see if he can transport them to Garrus Nine.
RATCHET: On it.
LUGNUT: Don't think it's over yet, Autobots! The Decepticons never lose a fight... without vengeance!
(Meanwhile, on the Nemesis)
VEHICON: Sir, we've lost contact with Lugnut.
STARSCREAM: Ugh! I can't leave anyone alone for less than five minutes!! Why, oh why, did I have to get a band of incompetent fools for a crew?
KNOCK OUT: I resent that, you know--
STARSCREAM: Silence! Imbeciles...
KNOCK OUT: What did I say?
STARSCREAM: Luckily, I have one last trick up my sleeve. Soundwave?
SOUNDWAVE: Yes?
STARSCREAM: Make contact with command on Cybertron. I have an old friend to speak with...
(On Cybertron, in the lair of the mysterious being known as Minion...)
MINION: Straxus, report.
STRAXUS: I've came, I've seen, I've conquered!
MINION: Excellent. Have the Autobots been destroyed?
STRAXUS: Nay, not yet, but thy Destructors shall see to it!
MINION: They should. Leader-1, out.
(He goes silent for a moment...)
VEHICON: My lord?
MINION: What is it?
VEHICON: Transmission from Commander Starscream.
MINION: Patch him through.
STARSCREAM: Ah, greetings, my old friend... I require some... assistance.
(Meanwhile, the Autobots aren't holding up so good to the 'Cons)
ULTRA MAGNUS: Autobots, retreat!
HOT ROD: He can't be serious.
SIDESWIPE: You know Magnus. He's always serious.
ULTRA MAGNUS: We can't hold up against those things much longer! Roll out!
STRAXUS: Ha! Ha! Good-bye, Autobots! Good-bye, fearful Autobots! Thou have done well, my friends. Ay, but although this battle has been won... the war goes on. Another task do I have for you.
DESTRUCTOR: Anything, master.
STRAXUS: Thou will each be given a certain number of Autobots to hunt for. Thou shalt return them here... and Project: Infiltration shalt commence!
(On Earth)
PROWL: Prime, I still don't see how this is a good idea... If Jetfire sends a team of Autobots here to Earth, they'll surely be detected by the Decepticons!
OPTIMUS PRIME: I'm aware of that, Prowl, but we'll have to take the risks. These two are too dangerous to let loose.
IRONHIDE: I don't see how. They weren't much of a problem for me...
OPTIMUS PRIME: Not now, Ironhide.
WHEELJACK: Just got word back from Jetfire. He says they're on their way!
(In space, on an Autobot ship)
KUP: Alright, bots, y'know the rules. Rule number one: You shall only refer to me as sir or Sarge. Rule number two: There'll be no disobeying orders. Or any disrespect to me. Or anyone else. And number three: The only butts you'll be kicking will be Decepticon butts. Understood?
BLURR: Yes, sir.
SPRINGER: Yup.
ARCEE: Yes.
FIRST AID: As always.
KUP: Good. Now let's make use of that last rule...
(Back on Cybertron)
MINION: What do you require from me, Starscream?
STARSCREAM: Well, Barricade and Lugnut have been capture by the Autobots, and so I need someone to free them.
MINION: I see. Fear not, Starscream. I shall have your lackies freed in no time.
STARSCREAM: Very good, Minion. Starscream out.
(Silence. A door opens behind Minion, revealing a trio of Decepticons)
MINION: I'm sure you know what your job is... don't you?
BLUDGEON: Oh... you have no idea!
