( dramatic theme playing )

Is this truly necessary, Bumblebee?

It is if we want to create and control

the effect that merges all of us into

our Ultra Bee Team Combiner form.

Without the assistance of an accidental explosion,

right, Fixit?

Hopefully, Strongarm, yes.

I don't like the way he said, "Hopefully."

And I wanna watch TV with Russell!

He said there's gonna be human raisins.

Humans racing, Grimlock.

Today is the Crown City Grand Prix.

Yep, it's the annual sprint for

the "Ruler of the Roads" trophy.

Sounds a lot more fun than this.

And safer.

Everyone, quit complaining.

I mean, do you think I enjoy this?

Or listening to your gripes?

You should try driving a mile on my tires.

All right, we're ready, heh, heh!

Everyone say, "Kablooey!"

Ahem, right.

Activating!

( electronic beep ) ( heroic techno theme playing )

( all yelling )

( surprised gasps )

( yelps )

( all groan )

Oh, dear. I-is everyone all right?

GRIMLOCK: Can I go watch the race now?

It's gonna start any minute!

( all gasp ) ( mysterious theme playing )

GRIMLOCK ( in Drift ): What's the matter?

SIDESWIPE ( in Strongarm ): Hey! That's me!

Huh. I really am good looking.

But where's my voice coming from?

Gah! DRIFT ( in Sideswipe ): It appears your experiment

was a failure, Fixit.

A terrible, terrible failure.

STRONGARM ( in Bee ): Am I in the Lieutenant's body?

Have I become my own hero?

BUMBLEBEE ( in Grimlock ): Okay, all of you know where you are,

but where am I?

Oh...scrud.

? Transformers ?

? Robots in disguise ?

? Robots in disguise ?

( roars ) ? Robots in disguise ?

? Robots in disguise ?

I'm sorry, sir, but these circuits are fried.

I-I can't switch you all back to your regular bodies.

DRIFT ( in Sideswipe ): Find. A. Way.

GRIMLOCK ( in Drift ): Woo-hoo!

( shouting ): I've got wheels!

( engine roaring )

( Bumblebee sighs )

I energized your cells that had been exposed

to radiation, as an explosion would have.

Therefore, the switch effect should be temporary.

Just as it's been temporary every time

you've changed into the Ultra Bee Team Combiner.

( grunts )

BUMBLEBEE ( in Grimlock ): Whoa, unh!

This is gonna take some getting used to.

I suppose it's more annoying than anything.

As long as we don't have to deal with any crises--

DENNY: Bee, you need to come see this!

Oh, fantastic.

( stomping )

( Grimlock whoops ) ( tires screeching )

Yes!

ANNOUNCER ( on TV ): And here come the racers to the starting line for this year's

Crown City Grand Prix.

There's Crasher Casey,

winner of the "Ruler of the Roads" title the last four years running.

Can she set a new record and make it five?

( rock theme playing on TV )

GRIMLOCK ( in Drift ): Stunticons!

I thought they looked like the cons

you've been telling us about

STRONGARM ( in Bee ): Now there's a fourth one.

DRIFT ( in Sideswipe ): Why would they want to race humans?

BEE ( in Grimlock ): They're up to something.

We need to get over there, fast.

We get to race! With our wheels!

SIDESWIPE ( in Strongarm ): We're going like this?

( sirens blaring ) ( Sidearm grunting )

I-I can barely control these things!

How am I gonna keep the humans at the race

from noticing I'm a little... different?

Not to mention, the event is televised

to millions more humans.

We'll do the best we can.

Big crowd will be at the start and finish line.

Out on the course, attendance should be pretty sparse.

Fixit, can you do something about the TV broadcast?

Yes! Probably.

I'm gonna have to sit this one out here, team.

Grim's body isn't suited to this kind of mission.

Strongarm, you get-- Uh.

STRONGARM ( in Bee ): Over here, sir!

Right, this is gonna take

some getting used to.

Strongarm, you're gonna be

in charge in the field.

Yes! No!

If Fixit can make sure the television broadcast

isn't transmitted, you will not be able to see us.

True. And if you're always updating me so I can advise you,

you could be distracted at a crucial moment.

There'll be lives at stake, Strongarm.

I'm counting on you.

Understood, understood!

I've played this scenario out in my mind

so many times!

This will be easy.

Okay, Autobots.

Here's my first order:

Let's rev up, and roll out!

( groans )

I know, sir, but I couldn't resist.

( ominous theme playing )

( engines revving )

Enjoy the view, guys...

You're gonna be in my dust all day long!

All right, buddy-bots.

with my nitro-boosts, I'm the fastest,

so help me get ahead!

You? I ain't never entered a race

I didn't wanna win, Drag Strip.

And this ain't no different.

( sighs ): We're not in competition

with each other, you nincom-bots.

What's important is that one of us wins! Yeah, what Slashmark said!

ANNOUNCER: Five laps around this highway course, which has been cordoned off for today's race.

And the winner claims the crown as this year's, "Ruler of the Roads!"

( stoplight beeping )

( tires screeching ) ( engines roaring ) They're off! We'll bring you

every hairpin curve and straightaway thanks to our automated television cameras around the course.

Crasher Casey takes the lead!

( engines roaring distantly ) Ho, ho. She came ready to race today!

FIXIT ( on TV ): We are experiencing technical diff--.

Diff-diff-difficulties!

Please stand by!

( techno theme playing )

CASEY ( sighs ): This is too easy.

Might as well get something accomplished today.

INSTRUCTOR ( on stereo ): Welcome to "Beginner Spanish."

Repeat after me:

( Instructor speaks in Spanish )

( Casey speaks in Spanish )

STRONGARM ( in Bee ): Mix into the field of racers.

Find those Stunticons and take them out!

SIDESWIPE ( in Strongarm ): You're gonna enjoy

ordering us around, aren't you?

I'm going to enjoy

leading a successful mission.

GRIMLOCK ( in Drift ): Wheels, do your stuff!

DRIFT ( in Sideswipe ): Do not be reckless, Dinobot!

Respect my chassis!

While we're on the subject, my paintjob,

I-it's kind of delicate, so if you could try not to--

Be silent.

( engine revs )

( tires squealing )

'Scuse me, pardon me!

On your left!

Stay in your lane, squishie.

Aha! Decepticon!

Autobot.

( both grunting ) ( metal clanging )

Take it easy, these wheels are new!

To me, anyway. By the authority of Lieutenant Bumblebee,

which is kind of me,

I order you to pull over!

We don't know why you're in this race, law-breaker,

but you're coming with us!

No way, no day, Autobot!

And I'm in this race because our boss

wants to conquer this planet's highways,

and whoever wins today becomes "Ruler of the Roads."

So-- ( scoffs )

Wait, you think coming in first

actually means you get to rule the roads?

DRAG STRIP: You can't trick me that easy!

I'm winning this race. Wildbreak!

( clang ) ( grunts )

( screams ) ( tires screech )

SLASHMARK: Let me through, you adle-engined dim-sparks!

DRIFT ( in Sideswipe ): Surrender. Your race is over.

( engines roaring ) ( brakes squealing )

You sound like law-bots.

We are. ( sirens blare ) ( startled yell )

Uh, see?

You are unfamiliar to me.

The name is Slashmark.

( scoffs ): A wheelie? Seriously?

( engine revs )

Oh, seriously.

( both grunt )

( tires screech )

You half-spark dum-dums.

Do you really think you're a match for me?

You are outnumbered four to one, Slashmark.

Now, students!

Students?

( metal clanging )

Well, I can see I have no need

to worry about you buffoons.

See, you don't have Jetstorm and Slipstream because--

I know why! ( sirens beep )

Can you not silence your siren?

( metallic clang )

( engine fades )

Touchy.

( sirens blaring )

How far behind do you think we are?

( sirens stop abruptly )

Aw, yeah, finally!

( siren wails )

SIDESWIPE: Aaarggh!

Strongarm has way too many accessories.

Do not focus on trivial things.

It is sheer luck we have not heard

of any humans being harmed.

ANNOUNCER ( over PA ): And there goes our leader, Crasher Casey, on another lap!

What could be going through the mind of this fierce competitor at this very moment?

INSTRUCTOR ( on stereo ): Repeat after me:

( Instructor speaks in Spanish )

( Casey speaks in Spanish )

( yawns )

( dramatic theme playing )

( laughs ) GRIMLOCK ( as Drift ): Don't push.

Don't push!

( cackles ) You act like you've never raced before.

Actually, I haven't!

( tires screech )

You Autobots aren't as tough as I remember.

I'm tough enough to take you out!

What's stopping you?

Uh... Oh, yeah!

( both groan )

Ah!

( Drag Strip laughs )

So long, speed bumps!

JETSTORM: I do not wish to offend, but...

When will Master Drift be returning to his own body?

STRONGARM ( as Bee ): All units!

I am back in pursuit of Drag Strip and Wildbreak.

We're heading into Crown City to begin the third lap.

I need more favorable numbers to confront these two!

Get here and back me up, now!

SIDESWIPE: Cool it with the demands!

We're all a little busy.

As Autobot in command, my order takes priority!

We're going to stop the 'Cons before we reach the city or my name isn't Lieutenant Bumblebee!

SIDESWIPE: Your name isn't Lieutenant Bumblebee. I knew Bee was making a mistake when he--

Ugh! Autobot in command, signing off!

Okay, I can probably do this on my own...

I am field commander.

( electronic beeps )

( stomping )

BEE ( as Grimlock ): Sorry, it's driving me crazy that I can't

be out there with my team.

This should cheer you up!

I've fixed the equipment,

and as soon as the Autobots return,

I believe I can switch you back

into your actual bodies!

That's great!

Let me see-- ( thud )

Whoa-- Ugh!

Oh, like you won't have accidents if you had a tail for the first time.

( groans sadly )

( dramatic theme playing )

I haven't seen any other racers in a while...

Are we winning?

Of course, Wildbreak old pal!

One more lap, and you are looking at

the new Ruler of the Roads!

Gee, that's terrific!

You know, I may not even give the title over to the boss when we get back.

If I'm Ruler of the Road,

what's he gonna do about it?

Probably run you over,

back up, and then run you over, again.

Not if I can-- Hey, who's that?

We're not winning!

There's a squishie ahead of us!

STRONGARM ( as Bee ): And that squishie is gonna staythere, Decepticon! Wildbreak, show her what Stunticons

do to tailgaters!

( tires screeching )

Whoa, ugh! This is team commander, who gives the orders!

I'm losing contact with the Decepticons.

Gah, I mean it this time!

Drop what you're doing immediately,

and give me back-up!

( both grunting )

GRIMLOCK ( as Drift ): No can do, Strongarm.

I'm having... equipment problems!

We do not have the problem.

( dramatic theme swells )

( both groan )

( sighs ) STRONGARM: Drift, Sideswipe! Get up here, now!

DRIFT ( as Sideswipe ): Continue pursuit until we may comfortably assist.

STRONGARM: You don't give the orders, I give the orders.

SIDESWIPE ( as Strongarm ): Right now, you're giving me a cranial ache.

Almost as bad as your messed up siren!

SIDESWIPE: We'll get there when we get there.

( techno theme playing )

STRONGARM ( as Bee ): They are so going

to get a disciplinary hearing for this.

No, a court-martial.

That human up there is a pretty decent racer.

We gotta make sure the only way that car

crosses the finish line is in pieces!

That won't happen!

But you'll finish this race in stasis cuffs.

Never lose that nutty sense of humor!

( tires screech ) ( grunts )

Aah!

Autobots! Wildbreak and Drag Strip are targeting

the lead car, and the driver doesn't know!

INSTRUCTOR ( on stereo ): Repeat after me:

( Instructor speaks in Spanish )

( Casey speaks in Spanish )

( dramatic theme swells )

( dramatic theme playing )

Want me to take this one, Drag Strip?

Wildbreak, old pal,

away you go!

( electricity crackles )

( rocks crumbling )

( Instructor speaks in Spanish )

( Casey speaks in Spanish )

Whoa!

What the--

I don't remember a hill being here.

Gee, uh, sorry about that, Drag Strip.

One of these days, Wildbreak.

Pow! Right in the grille.

Now let's step on it. The race is almost over.

STRONGARM ( in Bee ): Okay, this has been

a terrible mission as leader.

Aaarggh! GRIMLOCK ( in Drift ): Things could always be worse!

( Grimlock grunting )

Grim!

You followed orders, and came to back me up.

Well, yeah, I just had to finish

putting my Mini-Cons back on.

Sweet Solus Prime, that's adorable.

May we end the uncomplimentary compliments and return to our mission?

You're right, guys. There's a human in danger.

Let's ride! ( dramatic theme playing )

SIDESWIPE ( in Strongarm ): Chasing and bumping isn't getting anything done.

We need a new approach.

( heroic theme playing )

Ah, I hope I didn't dent myself.

Drift, get me up close to Slashmark!

DRIFT ( in Sideswipe ): But you just bumping isn't--

We're not gonna bump him, go!

( grunts )

SLASHMARK: Get off me!

Ugh!

( both grunting )

Are we done here, Autobot?

Yeah, I think we are.

( sirens blaring )

Ugh, w-who's there?

Whoa-- Aaarggh!

( crashes, groans )

Good looking and good moves.

DRAG STRIP: Finish line's coming up soon.

It's now or never! Oh, I vote now!

One guided missile to make your dreams come true.

( yells )

INSTRUCTOR ( on stereo ): Load next lesson.

I'm trying, I'm trying.

Caramba!

( dramatic theme playing )

ALL ( scream ): Scrap!

ANNOUNCER ( over PA ): And our "Ruler of the Roads" will reign another year!

( brakes squeal )

( crowds cheer )

Muchas gracias!

STRONGARM ( in Bee ): Slashmark disappeared

after going over the side of the highway.

DRIFT ( in Sideswipe ): And by the time we drove back to the other Stunticons, they'd used the explosion's smoke to escape.

BUMBLEBEE ( in Grimlock ): The most important thing is, no humans were hurt,

That's a win.

STRONGARM: Sir, as honored as I was to experience

being in your structural housing.

I'm in no hurry to do it again.

Oh?

Apparently, leadership is a lot more than giving orders.

I really underestimated the challenges you face.

I think we all have a better understanding

of our teammates, Strongarm.

( electronic beeping )

SIDESWIPE ( in Strongarm ): You said the combiner effect

should wear off on its own, Fixit.

It should.

But it might be a week,

or a month, or a year

until you return to normal. A year?

Well, I've repaired my equipment and I believe I can reverse the effect now.

But if you'd like to wait...? No-no-no, I'm ready, but--

We're just gonna go back to our own bodies?

Nothing bad is gonna happen?

I'm not gonna be stuck with Strongarm's

non-existent sense of humor? Watch it.

That is the plan. And if it's successful,

I believe I'll have learned something

about the Ultra Bee Team Combiner effect.

If it is not successful?

Then you'll make me a fortune

at the recycling center, heh, heh.

Oh, o-of course, I'm only kidding.

And this is a very serious, terrible time for kidding.

Ahem, all right, every Bot hold still.

( all yelling )

( all groaning )

Whew! Thank the Primes.

( kissing noises )

Oh, it's so good to have me back.

Teacher? Is that you?

Does the answer not appear obvious before your optics?

BOTH: It's him.

( uplifting theme playing )

Next time, try your experiments on

some junked Earth vehicles first, okay, Fixit?

Fixit?

Come on, Fixit, talk to us.

FIXIT ( in machine ): Lieutenant, i-is that you?

There seems to be some fault with my optics.

I-- I can't flee-- Tree-- See you!

Wait... Did we all combine

into a super Ultra Bee Team Combiner?

No, buddy.

I think you zotzed yourself

into your control panel.

Don't worry, Fixit, I've watched you repair this thing.

We'll go into town for a few new fuses,

then we can get you back where you belong.

FIXIT: Ah, that's a relief.

D-did I tell you about the time my systems proctor relocated his consciousness

into an Energon processor?

Heh, heh, he would not stop complaining!

"It's too quiet. I'm lonely."

And do you know how long he was in there?

Take a guess, go on, guess.

( clears throat )

Uh, anyone?

Huh, boy, you're all really putting

some thought into your guesses.

Hmph.
