The Transformers Page #16

Steady as she goes, mob! Snoopy visitors

get mud in the eye bye and bye, and film at five!

(gives thumbs up sign, RIDES

OFF)

JUNKIONS:

Everything must go by midnight!

With a SINGING ROAR of musical, tribal excitement, the Junkions

sweep Springer and our friends along with them, following course

of landing Cruiser to

CRUISER LANDING SITE

Cruiser sets down and Junkions line up with weapons aimed at

rampway as they watch door

ON DOORWAY:

as Hot Rod steps out with big smile and hand full of energon

sticks followed by a very wary Kup, and the Dinobots with Wheelie

riding Sludge's neck.

INTERCUT TO SPRINGER, DANIEL, ARCEE ET. AL FOR REACTIONS

ON WRECK-GAR AND OTHER JUNKIONS

as they react to hot Rod's smile, Wreck-Gar trying to mimic that

smile to his followers who laugh

ON HOT ROD:

as he steps up beside Kup and gently pushes Kup's rifle aside

HOT ROD:

(aside to Kup, still holding

smile)

Guns aren't exactly friendly.

KUP:

(through his teeth to Hot

Rod)

Neither are they in case you haven't noticed.

HOT ROD:

(sotto)

What was the Universal greeting again?

WRECK-GAR

growls and slips a SNIPPER, BLOW TORCH CUTTING TOOL out of a

holster and starts toward Hot Rod with it

HOT ROD:

HOT ROD:

(big smile)

Bah weep graaaagnah wheep ni ni bong?

WRECK-GAR AND OTHER JUNKIONS

They look at one another, blink, then beam with smiles

WRECK-GAR

Bah weep graaaagnah wheep ni ni bong?

HOT ROD:

(nodding, smiling)

Bah weep graaaagnah wheep ni ni bong?

(presses energon sticks

forward)

As Hot Rod says this...

...Wreck-Gar takes the energon sticks and holds them over his

head and...

...all the Junkions smile and cheer and start chanting the

universal greeting phrase, laughing, clapping their hands and

dancing around, taking Arcee's hand and...

... taking Springer and Perceptor and Daniel out into center

of a square dance type gathering, moving back and forth with them

dancing happily, singing the universal greeting in a melodic,

rhythmic way

EVERYBODY:

Bah weep graaaagnah wheep ni ni bong Bah weep

graaaagnah wheep ni ni bong! Bah weep graaaagnah

wheep ni ni bong....

WRECK-GAR

hugs Hot Rod, and Perceptor who winces and tries to enjoy it, and

then hugs Daniel, Wheelie, Arcee, laughing and dancing as SINGING

goes.

ON GRIMLOCK:

as he reacts to Wreck-Gar kissing his leg

GRIMLOCK:

Yuck! Me Grimlock, not a kisser! Me,

Grimlock, a king!

WHEELIE:

claps his hands and gleefully makes noises as he hops about,

dancing with Junkions until we CUT TO

WRECK-GAR

as he stands on top of platform and RINGS JUNK BELLS AND SIRENS

getting silence and smiling as he waves hands all around

WRECK-GAR

Have a nice day and please, close cover

before striking, friends! Amigos, buddies

and side kicks, Breep drit, aw rootie!

So say the Junkions!

(holds hands over his head)

ANGLE ON HOT ROD

He looks at them, strangely.

HOT ROD:

Where did you learn to talk like that?

ANGLE ON WRECK-GAR

He reaches into his body, and about where a heart or some other

organ would be, he pulls out a Watchman.

THE WATCHMAN:

On it is a crazy Eddy-type commercial.

WRECK-GAR

We talk T.V. You talk some T.V.?

KUP:

looks around nervously.

KUP:

I talk some TV. And now, Hot Rod for the news. Don't

touch that dial. Void where prohibited.

JUNKIONS cheer wildly while the Dinobots react with uncertainty

RESUME ON WRECK-GAR

as he points off and shouts happily.

WRECK-GAR

up, blotto friend, soon like brand new

HIS P.O.V. - JUNKIONS WITH ULTRA MAGNUS

The Junkions move Ultra Magnus' mangled body through an amazing

assembly line, quickly piecing together his body parts, using

junk when they can't find a part.

Then, they lube him, dust him, spray him and polish him.

Then, Wreck-Gar hits a switch, and Ultra Magnus' eye lights go on.

WRECK-GAR

Happy motoring! Cock-a-doodle-do!

ON ULTRA MAGNUS:

as he steps away from Junkion line of reconstruction and into

group consisting of Hot Rod, Kup and Springer.

SPRINGER AND OTHERS

(Ad lib jubilation)

Ultra Magnus!

ULTRA MAGNUS:

You're all alive...

HOT ROD:

The matrix!

All turn to Ultra Magnus.

ULTRA MAGNUS:

It's gone...

KUP:

And with it, all hope.

HOT ROD:

No...

(inspired)

The matrix will not fail us.

ARCEE:

Didn't you hear Ultra Magnus. We don't

have it anymore. Galvatron does.

HOT ROD:

Then we've got to trust in ourselves, and

no matter what they odds, destroy Unicron.

ON WRECK-GAR

His eyes light up.

WRECK-GAR

Yeah! Destroy Unicron... Kill the grand poobah....

Flush cosmic troubles down the drain.

ANGLE ON JUNKIONS

JUNKIONS:

(almost chanting)

Destroy Unicron... Kill the grand poobah...

Flush cosmic troubles down the drain.

ANGLE ON SPRINGER

The Quintesson ship in the BACKGROUND.

SPRINGER:

Listen, I don't want to rain on anybody's

parade, but how are we going to move

the army to Unicron. We don't have enough

room on that ship.

WRECK-GAR

No fuss, no muss.

(to others)

Hurry, hurry. Sale must end! Rush

right on down to bridge and test drive

latest with no obligation.

Suddenly, several Junkions scramble to concealed doorways in the

Junk.
