Grr!

You know, we have a lot of fun on our show,

but I'd like to get serious for a moment

while we honour a real hero.

(Laughter)

(Sniffs) Oh, bless that sandwich!

The power's out! Lucky we have our luminous suits.

I don't need a fancy luminous suit.

I can see just fine!

(Crash)

Oh, irony, I didn't see you coming.

If only I had a luminous suit.

Oh, what a twisted web the fates have woven.

I know who's behind this blackout.

Let me guess. Martians? Pod People? Inspector 34?

Don't be ridiculous!

Pod People have better things to do. I'm talkin' Eggman here!

I agree with Sticks,

which isn't the most comforting feeling in the world.

To Eggman's lair!

Hey, I have a door bell for a reason, you know!

- The power's out. - In that case, smash away!

- Why'd you turn off the juice? - Hello!

I make my living with robots.

I can't seize power unless I have power to power them.

We, however, are still on full charge,

thanks to our incredibly long battery life.

That's 'cause your brains use so little power.

Whoa! Ho, ho! Up top!

Oh, sure. You leave a dude hangin',

- but ya call me the villain. - Eggman makes a good point.

Fine.

No, I meant, it's not his MO to shut off the AC.

"So little brain power." I just got it! Ha, ha!

At this rate, the batteries should last another decade.

You wanna tell us what's going on?

Nothing's going on. It's just an expected blackout.

On the plus side, that alarm that's been sounding for days

- has finally stopped. - This bureaucrat is lying!

He's spinning yarn, talking tripe, telling porkies!

Sticks is right!

Jeez, I'm agreeing with her again. Should I see a doctor?

Fine, it's not a routine blackout.

Our Village is powered by an ancient crystal.

Or at least, it was. I'll show you.

I probably shouldn't have put the town power-supply crystal

behind a door that can only be opened with electricity.

The Meroke Crystal. It has been passed down

from Mayor generation to Mayor generation.

But now its capabilities appear to be drained.

So how do we power it up again?

Take this map and find a new crystal.

I don't want to be the mayor

who presided over it when it broke!

- We're on it. Say no more! - I had nothing more to say.

"Dear Zooey. Day one. It's amazing how much snow there is

just two minutes outside of town."

"Day three. The cold is unbearable.

For the first time in my life,

I actually considered wearing pants.

Desperate times indeed."

"Day 12. I'm losing track of time.

It might actually be day two."

Whoa!

They call me "Knuckles" for a reason. Because it's my name.

Maybe it would be easier if we used Blue Force One

- in Snowmobile mode. - Blue Force One

has a snowmobile mode and you only mention it now?

Need a ride?

Oooh! It's in an ancient dialect.

Allow me. I took a night class, once.

Ahem. "Strength and logic will lead you astray.

If you want to enter, try the lazy way."

Ah, we don't have time for this. I'll smash our way in.

Thanks, Sonic. My letter to Zooey got ruined.

Now I have to start over.

"Dear Zooey. Day one."

It must be a combination code,

but there are so many possibilities.

It would take me centuries to figure out

how long it would take me to figure out the combination.

Centuries, huh?

(Rumbling)

Now I get it. Only Knuckles did what the riddle suggested,

try the lazy way.

Oh! Now I get it. "Hero" is another word for sandwich.

Noble travellers,

if you want to reach the Meroke Crystal,

you must answer three riddles and overcome three obstacles.

- Including the one outside? - Not including the one outside.

(Groan)

Why should we listen to this jabroni?

Outta the way, Rocky! (War cry)

Maybe I stepped over the line with that jabroni remark,

but we all said things we didn't mean.

Noble stone guardian, we accept your challenge.

Cool! See ya!

Noble travellers,

to continue on your journey and move this slab, tell me,

how many sides does a circle have?

First, you tell me why you think slab rhymes with have.

- (Coughing) - When he said "obstacles",

I was kinda hoping for bounce pads, not poisonous gas.

A circle is round. It has no sides!

(Coughing)

Well, that clearly didn't work. Anyone else got an idea?

A circle has two sides, inside and outside.

That is correct.

Did I solve it?

Noble travellers, I pass before the sun,

both high and low, and yet I cast no shadow.

That one rhymes, but the metre's terrible.

Uh, I don't know. A cloud? No, those have shadows.

Oh! What about a bird? But, you know, like a clear one?

What?

Pretty soon, we'll be dust in the wind.

Wind. That is the correct answer.

All right, Knuckles! Two for two!

Are we saying random numbers now?

One, one, one. I don't know many numbers.

Noble travellers, try as you might, no sound it makes.

When you speak its name, it's so fragile, it breaks.

Good rhyme. Good metre.

I see why you're the final guard.

Ain't you guys ever heard of personal space?

All right, Knuckles. Make with the simple-minded

yet somehow profound answer, so we can get outta here.

Hmm. Let me use my think muscle.

- Oh, yeah. Immovable. Right. - Come on, come on, come on!

Silence! I can't hear my brain thoughts!

Silence is the correct answer.

There she is. Just gotta switch it out with something.

It's gonna collapse! We better get outta here!

- Yeah! - We did it!

Yeah!

Stay back!

Stay back or I'll flip this thing and it'll explode!

(Snoring)

There you are!

I was beginning to think you disappeared forever,

- like the last group I sent. - Nope. We made it.

And here is your Pierogi Crystal!

Ah, hey! TV's back!

Knuckles, you were great up there.

You're smarter than we give you credit for.

- Me am? - Forget I said anything.
