( Denny snoring )
( light dramatic theme playing )
Really?
( snoring continues )
( snoring stops )
( snoring continues )
( irritated sigh )
Breakfast is served!
( gasps )
Dad, so I was thinking... all night,
and the two of us living in the same trailer...
It's not ideal.
I'll build you the coolest pad ever,
right next to the trailer.
We can be neighbors.
Sweet! We can work on it together and--
No way.
Let me do this solo. I owe it to you.
I detect early onset stubbornness in Denny Clay.
( sighs ): Me too.
He's going to build me my own place to live
and says it's going to be the coolest ever.
That sounds ominous.
Heh, no kidding.
Grimlock to Fixit, I'm on solo patrol.
Reporting... that there's nothing to report.
I'll report more nothing to report later.
( grunts )
I miss smashin' stuff just for fun.
What good is a Dinobot if he's not smashin' stuff?
( distant whirring )
( sighs ) ( distant crash )
( dramatic theme playing )
Oh, scrap!
♪ Transformers ♪
♪ Robots in disguise ♪
( roaring ) ♪ Robots in disguise ♪
( dramatic theme playing )
( grunts )
( laughs )
That's some grade-A smashin'!
Another Dinobot?
'Sup? I'm Grimlock.
I'm Scowl. This is the Kaboomer.
Phew.
Freedom feels so good
after all those years on that prison ship.
You wanna join in the smash-fest, Grimlock?
After all, what good is a Dinobot
if he's not smashin' stuff?
Well, looks like this arena's getting torn down anyway.
We'd actually be doing the crew a favor.
Bee will be so impressed I thought this through.
Let's smash!
( crashing )
( car horn honks )
Ha, ha! Hey!
Here's your new pad, buddy.
Roof leaks like a strainer, but the AM radio's clear as day.
Yep, all she needs is a little elbow grease.
BOTH: Whoo-hoo!
Oh, that hit the spot.
That was just a warm-up.
Let's you and me smash this lousy planet to splinters.
Uh, well, Scowl, the thing is...
I kinda have to arrest you now.
What? You did just as much destroyin' as I did.
Yeah, but you and a bunch of Decepticons
escaped the prison ship,
and I'm workin' with some Autobot buddies
to round you all up.
Hey, I'm not a bad bot.
I just like smashin'.
Come on, Grim, you know how it is.
The two of us, we're practically brothers.
If I let you go, do you promise
you won't put any living creatures in danger?
You mean the little screamers they have on this planet?
You have to promise.
I promise! I promise!
( sighs )
( grunts in agreement )
Thanks, Grim. You're a true Dino.
( sighs )
( construction tools pounding and whirring )
Dad, really, I'm happy to help.
DENNY: You're gonna love this, Russell.
This RV could be awesome,
but I have to make sure my dad
doesn't do it up all Denny-style.
DENNY: Now this is Denny-style!
Oh, boy!
Back from solo patrol.
And I did not see one filthy Decepticon,
Mm-mm. No, sir, nope.
Another uneventful patrol. Huh.
Maybe we're running out of Decepticons.
Maybe. 'Cause my patrol was totally uneventful, too.
( nervously ): I mean, completely free of Decepticons
or smashin' of any kind.
FIXIT: Lieutenant!
I've picked up a Decepticon signal in the woods,
near the old demolition derby arena.
Grim, wasn't that right where you were patrolling?
Was it? Huh. Did not notice.
I was really busy, um, not smashin' stuff.
Grim.
I saw another Dinobot, and I let him go.
You let an escaped criminal roam free?
Scowl was not hurting anyone.
He was just smashin'. That's what Dinobots do.
I bet he's just completely innocent.
I mean, sweet guy, real sweet.
( device beeping )
( dramatic theme playing )
FIXIT: The database says this Scowl worked for Thunderhoof.
He was a wrecker, destroying the homes of Bots
who wouldn't vacate after Thunderhoof
stole the land they sat on.
Scrap. Ugh...
Well, hopefully, Scowl hasn't hooked up with Thunderhoof yet.
But if he has, maybe Scowl can lead us
to the rest of Steeljaw's pack.
Bee, I won't let you down again.
I hope not, Grim.
Okay, Autobots.
Let's wreck and roll.
Ugh...
See, "wreck" because Scowl wrecks stuff,
and then I-- And I was like, "roll" because that's--
That's what we do.
SIDESWIPE: And "lame" because that was lame.
Fine.
( dramatic theme playing )
It's an important mission, Fixit.
And we have an important mission, too.
Support the team by monitoring their progress
from the Command Center?
No. Getting inside that RV
and finding out just how bad Denny-style's gonna be.
Is that really as important as--
DENNY: Anybody seen my disco ball?
( exasperated sigh )
GRIMLOCK: I still don't think Scowl's a bad Bot.
What if I take him under my claw?
I could be what you were for me.
You know, a minotaur.
"Mentor," and I don't think that's a good idea, Grimlock.
Based on his rap sheet,
Scowl seems unlikely to change his ways any time soon.
His name is Scowl. I mean, it's totally a bad guy name.
Besides, mentorship is not without its difficulties.
I think the master is speaking about you, Slipstream.
Clearly, he was speaking about you, Jetstorm.
Grimlock, I get it.
I fought to make you a part of this team, remember?
But Scowl is not like you. He's a violent criminal.
He's my buddy. He won't hurt anyone.
I made him promise not to.
( all groaning )
Traitor! Hey...buddy.
( grunting )
Some Dino you are. I thought we were pals.
I thought we had a deal.
Wait, Scowl, you--
( all grunting )
( dramatic theme playing )
I do not believe that Decepticon
would be receptive to a minotaur.
DENNY: Fixit, for the last time,
this is something I want to do for Russell, on my own.
Keep trying, keep trying.
( sighs ): It is useless, Russell.
If you can't get in there, I'm going to be stuck
with a room decorated with all of my father's favorite things.
Eight-track tapes, flowered wallpaper, shag carpet.
It's too horrible to even imagine,
and I don't even know what those things are!
All right, all right. I'll do it. I'll try again.
( construction tools pounding and whirring )
Uh, ahem. Um, it's the mailman.
DENNY: It's Sunday.
( groaning )
( dramatic theme playing )
Up there.
Wow. Grim, are all Dinobots this good at camouflage?
Let's make this quick.
( chuckles )
( grunting )
( Bots groaning )
( grunts )
Scowl, you're under arrest for unlaw--
Nope, I'm over arrest! I kept my promise.
I haven't hurt one little screamer.
Not that this place has any screamers.
Humans use this place every day.
Well, they won't be using it anymore.
( grunting )
( suspenseful theme playing )
( train whistle blows ) Try to keep the track together!
There's a train coming!
( all grunt )
And be gentle or--
That'll happen.
Scowl, it doesn't have to be like this.
Imagine using all your smashing to do good stuff,
maybe even help bring in bad guys like I do.
Doesn't that sound great?
( laughs ): That sounds boring!
I smash what I want, when I want,
and I ain't stoppin' for no Bot!
( grunts )
( grunting )
Do you even remember what it's like to be a Dinobot, Grimlock?
I am a Dinobot!
( grunts )
( groans )
Well, you sure don't act like one.
( dramatic theme playing )
( grunts )
( groans )
When I'm finished with you,
I'll find something bigger to smash.
Maybe there'll be some little screamers in it,
and I won't even care.
It's too badly damaged.
( train whistle blows )
MAN ( over PA ): Final train of the day, now arriving.
( train whistle blows )
We have to knock down
the remaining sections of broken track.
Isn't the problem that there's not enough track?
Yes, so we need to make a new one.
( suspenseful theme playing )
Grim, we need you!
You've gone all soft, Grimlock.
Guess I'll have to do enough smashin' for two Dinobots.
( both grunting )
( groaning )
Single file! We have to catch the train!
( dramatic theme playing )
( all grunting )
Easy.
( beeps )
Attention, this station is under emergency repair.
The train is being redirected to its previous stop.
Where did you throw Scowl, Grim?
Right over...
Not there.
I'm guessing he might have gone that way, sir.
( crashing )
( soft theme playing )
These little screamers are so weird.
Hey, Dad, I've been hearing a lot of swear words
coming from in there, and I was wondering--
Okay, so it's not the easiest one-man job,
but I'm getting there, and it's gonna be sweet!
And best of all...
it's gonna have...
a rooftop entertainment center!
Ta-da!
It actually is pretty sweet.
( metal creaking )
( crash )
( gasps )
Oh, I'm sorry, son.
I'm a failure at extreme RV makeover.
I just wanted to do something awesome for you since...
I wasn't there as much as I would have liked
when you were a kid.
Dad, what's important is the time
we're spending together now, you know?
You're pretty smart, Russell.
So I guess that means we're building this together,
and you know what it's gonna be?
BOTH: A blast and a half!
( screams )
( all screaming )
That's enough, Scowl.
( dramatic theme playing )
Strongarm, Drift, split up and keep Scowl on the property.
Sideswipe, with me. Whoever finds him first, sing out.
Scowl is being seen by way too many humans! I have an idea.
( sighs ): Go for it.
Please exit the spa.
A rare kangaroo has escaped from the exotic animal park.
( distant screams ) A kangaroo?
( suspenseful theme playing )
Our target is near, pupils.
Stealth is of the utmost importance.
( both gasp )
Apologies for our outburst, Master.
We shall immediately return to stealthiness.
Do, for the quieter we are,
the more likely we will be to hear our foe.
( both gasp )
( Drift groans )
Come out now, Scowl,
before you make me do something you're gonna regret.
That's my line!
( groans )
GRIMLOCK: Whoa!
( Grimlock groans ) ( crashes )
( people chanting )
Huh?
( chanting continues )
( grunts )
( grunting )
That's back towards the entrance.
Autobots, converge on the main entrance.
( chanting continues )
( laughs ): Just like an Autobot...
takin' the hits for some little screamers.
( growls ) Well, the hits
are gonna keep on coming.
( roars )
( both grunt )
( dramatic theme playing )
( roars )
( grunting )
( roars )
( grunts )
( groans )
Okay, okay!
You're right. What am I doing this for, Scowl?
Do I think these little screamers
are ever gonna thank me?
It's a lot easier and more fun
to smash what I wanna smash,
instead of being told what to do by some Autobot.
That's more like it. I knew you'd come around, big guy.
Get up here and give me a tail-five.
( grunts )
Just because something's easier and more fun, Scowl,
that doesn't make it right.
STRONGARM: Nice capture, Grim.
I know you just wanted to help Scowl.
Really wish I could have, but it turns out
you can't help some Bot who doesn't want to be helped.
When did you get so smart?
Wow, Dad.
If my scan is correct...
BOTH: It's the coolest pad ever!
No eight-tracks, no wallpaper, no shag carpet.
It's everything I could've wanted and more,
but, Dad, you forgot one thing.
This.
( disco music playing over speakers )
Do the Russell Hustle!
What exactly did we miss?
( dramatic theme playing )
