Pirate's Code: The Adventures of Mickey Matson Page #4

Hello?

Who are you?

To reduce the turbulence,

I recommend to pull up

the rear hydrofoil stabilizers.

Okay, how do

we do that?

Blue switch.

And Fm not weird.

Than ks, Kitten.

Good, Kitten.

Good kitty.

Please don't cal! me Kitten,

and I was not built

out of spare parts from

an old washing machine.

I'm a prototype defense craft

codenamed Thunder Flay.

What's so funny?

I had a math quiz today.

Back to the ship.

Aye-Aye. Ad.

There's some cool stuff

or gadgets in here.

Please don't touch that.

Check this out.

Those are expensive,

and 1 expect you are

not qualified to use them.

No, check this out.

Most on board equipment

requires extensive training

prior to use.

Let's take a look.

Have you received

extensive training?

I don't think so.

Exactly like the boat

from the security footage.

What security footage?

Looks pretty piraty to me,

and I'm guessing if they see us,

we're in trouble.

The approaching watercraft

is capable of 60-plus knots

and is highly maneuverable.

You might wanna

hold onto something.

I remember seeing

this in the manual.

And it's a submarine?

You're holding back

on us, Kitten.

The submarine function

has not yet been tested,

and therefore 1 could not

offer it as an option.

And, please,

don't call me Kitten.

If you must give me

a designation,

please use my code name,

Thunder Flay.

We need to follow them.

That boat is fast.

We need more speed.

We have reached our

maximum submerged velocity.

But we can't lose them.

Grandpa Jack said

that the electric blast

came from Lake Manestee, so

we'll just follow the shoreline

and then slip

into the harbor.

He also said to call

the Coast Guard if we need help.

And we will.

I also highly recommend

contacting the Coast Guard.

Fm gonna say this

one more time.

If you so much as graze

a hair on his head--

Hold up!

Oh, mama.

Transpo's here.

Let's move it!

Move, move, move!

If I could feel emotions,

I would say

that whole experience

was quite exhilarating.

Thank you for the unscheduled

test of my submersible mode.

Thermal scan indicates there is

only one matching heat signature

which places the scarab right--

There!

There.

That looks like

the place.

What is it with bad guys

and cross bones?

This is bad.

If we anchor

right under the bow,

they might not be able

to see us.

All right.

Let's call the Coast Guard.

No, Gramps said

we have to figure out

what Ironsides is up to,

not just find them.

As soon as we figure out what's

goin' on we'll call it in, okay?

I promise.

I, too, recommend

calling the Coast Guard,

but what do I know?

We looked up to you.

Oh, really?

Well, I despise you.

I'm sick and tired

of babysitting

you snot-nosed kids,

watching you rise up

in the ranks

while I am stuck here

in Nowheresville,

and I am done with it.

Get out of my face.

And I hope you two have gone

potty, because I understand

an overactive bladder's

a problem for you folks?

Let's go!

So now we need to use

that radio, country boy.

This is crazy.

Uh...

I kinda left it

in the Thunder Ray.

Wow, that can't be good.

I'm no genius, but I bet

that has something to do

with the blast your Grandpa

told us about.

Someone's coming.

Come on.

Beauty, Tesla.

Nice Tesla.

Nice Tesla.

What's a Tesla?

He was a person.

He?

Very fragile!

You nincompoops,

you go now!

Hey, Igor, you're gonna need

to learn now to communicate

in American if you plan on

me taking you seriously.

No! No! No!

You try to be nice

to someone.

Well, he's a weirdo,

and he talks funny.

Oh, you're just

figurin' that out now.

Well, I seen you

were tryin' to be nice.

I'll tell you what.

As soon as I

get a chance,

I'm throwin'

that crackpot overboard.

As long as you let me tie him

to his Tesla toy beforehand.

Explain to me

what Uncle Joey--oh--

Admiral is plannin'

to do with that thing.

That device is gonna

electrificationify the earth

and fry every electronic

gadget there is.

So?

Like when we's kids,

remember?

And we used to zap them

old bull pond frogs

with jumper cables.

Yeah, but we used

to kill them--oh.

Exactly, he's lost his

marbles and his 3 cents.

Okay, that sounds bad.

I know, and I

don't even like frogs.

So, like, did you hear them?

Every electronic device

on earth.

We have to stop them.

But, Mic key,

there's only two of us,

and don't forget their

little ray guns.

Green is not my color.

Think you can

outrun the mad scientist?

Any day of the week,

but remember we're a team.

Looking for this?

Oh, hello, dear.

So sweet, little girl.

Eww, you creeper.

May I have it back

to me, please?

Thank you.

No, no, no!

I mean, please,

to me give it now.

Give it now.

Give it now.

Nah.

Bad girl.

And here he comes.

Evil girl!

Evil girl!

Come on,

let's get outta here.

Like yesterday.

Well, hello!

Aren't you going

to even say goodbye?

Admiral Joseph Ironsides.

I don't think we'll be

shaking your hand.

Well, spirited young friends,

perhaps you might be

interested in my other hand.

I didn't think so.

The Dulan motor?

Fine.

Seamus, your musket Tesla,

if you please.

Bring them

to the wheel house.

What are your names, please?

Mickey Matson.

Spartacus.

I'm curious as to why you'd

be sneaking aboard my ship

with no adult supervision,

no backup, no Coast Guard.

I don't know either.

Maybe my compadre here

could answer that for you.

What can you tell me

about that wonderful vessel

you moored alongside

the bow of my ship?

It reminds me of an old man!

once knew, and then I realized,

of course, who else

but Jack Bettie?

He sent you?

He sent children?

We're teenagers.

Grandpa Jack

was right about you.

Grandpa Jack?

We always dreamed of

meeting an heir of Jack Bettie.

It's because of your grandpa

that we're here today.

It was under his command

he had me transferred.

My wife and daughter were with

me aboard my brand-new cutter.

She was proclaimed to be

the most

technologically-advanced vessel

on the planet,

rumored to be unsinkable.

She was crushed by

a mere breeze from the East.

Every single system failed.

We were trapped below decks.

I'm sorry you lost

your family,

but you've gone totally insane.

Insane, little girl?

All that I do is with

extraordinary reason.

I tried to get to them,

but my hand was pinned

against the bulkhead.

The only thing I could

reach was a harpoon.

Technology took

everything from me,

but today I will push

the reset button

for the entire world,

a new era.

Mankind will adhere to

a set of regulations

that will keep the world

on the right path,

a simple code

of conduct,

my young friends,

my code,

pirates' code.

People will die.

Everyone who depends

on technology will--

It will be tragic.

All great events that change

the world have their martyrs.

They're here, Admiral.

Right on time.

Gramps!

Grams!

Looks like your little

boyfriend failed again.

Have some faith, Max.

Lock 'em below decks, Lynch!
