Transformers: Age of Extinction Page #4

Synopsis: After the battle between the Autobots and Decepticons that leveled Chicago, humanity thinks that all alien robots are a threat. So Harold Attinger, a CIA agent, establishes a unit whose sole purpose is to hunt down all of them. But it turns out that they are aided by another alien robot who is searching for Optimus Prime. Cade Yeager, a "robotics expert", buys an old truck and upon examining it, he thinks it's a Transformer. When he powers it up, he discovers it's Optimus Prime. Later, men from the unit show up looking for Optimus. He helps Yeager and his daughter Tessa escape but are pursued by the hunter. They escape and Yeager learns from technology he took from the men that a technology magnate and defense contractor named Joshua Joyce is part of what's going on, so they go to find out what's going on.

You told me that was a dud, dude.

I could be dead. Right?

Look.

Okay, yes, I found a truck, all right.

I towed it back for the parts.

I left it here last night.

This morning, it's gone.

When? Where? I don't know.

I swear to God.

That's as much as I know about him.

"Him."

He said, "Him."

He knows who the son of a b*tch is.

- Mr. Yeager.

- What?

Excuse me.

You just said, "Him."

- Take them down.

- What?

Let me go!

They don't know about the truck! I know!

Just let her go.

What kind of a man

betrays his flesh-and-blood

brethren for alien metal?

- Get this guy out of my sight.

- Get off!

Let her go!

They don't know about the truck.

All right! Load up! Search the perimeter!

Lucas, you called, didn't you?

No!

I don't know any of these scary guys.

God! You're manhandling a woman!

I'll kick your ass!

Let her go!

- Daddy! Let me go!

- You're not going anywhere.

- Daddy! ""

No! You're not taking me anywhere!

I'm an American!

- Easy, sweetheart.

- Okay, okay, okay.

All right. Okay. All right. I was wrong.

Savoy. Use the girl.

My God!

Now, you got ten seconds.

Where's the truck?

- You're gonna shoot my little girl?

- If I have to.

Please don't shoot me! Please!

Look, I don't know. I told you

everything that I know! He's gone.

He left.

He was in the barn, I swear to God!

- Just let her go!-

Please, please.

He was in there! Let her go!

Seven seconds.

I'm telling you the truth!

He was in there!

Dad!

Tell him to get away

from my little girl now!

Dad!

You touch her and I'll kill you!

You got two seconds.

I need the truth.

- Please.

- Shoot her.

Here I am!

Get down!

Cade!

They're going to kill you! Get out of here!

Push right! Headed to the house!

Come on. Hurry up! Get in the car!

- Let's go!

- Daddy, get in the car!

Perimeter, Optimus moving your way!

What's happening, baby?

Who are they?

It's the truck. They want the truck!

"Who are they"? Who are you,

and who are you calling "baby"?

I know you heard me.

- I'm her boyfriend!

- He's my boyfriend!

What? You're not her boyfriend!

His name's Shane and he drives, Dad.

What kind of cars are those?

They're so scary!

There's another one

coming up the back!

You gotta try to lose them

in the cornfield!

He's coming up behind us! Go!

Viper 15,

running on fumes. RTB.

They've got us cornered!

Watch out,

watch out, watch out!

Mr. Yeager, this is not

how I wanted us to meet, okay?

I'm Shane, and I'm a completely...

And I am not talking to you!

Drive the car!

Watch out! Watch out!

Throw 'em some warning shots!

Man, I don't know how

I'm driving this good.

It's like, today

I've gone to a whole other level.

Road, focus! Stop talking!

Shane, look out!

This may be primarily my fault, okay.

They said

they were gonna bring a check!

I didn't know they were gonna send

a death squad!

Hang on!

Hey, we got ourselves a winner!

Don's got it over here.

Look out!

We lost them!

Good job, stranger from the cornfields!

The scary cars are back.

Lose them at the factory, Shane!

I thought you knew

how to drive this thing! Go!

I don't think we're gonna get that money.

Doesn't seem like it.

Cade!

Take 'em upstairs!

We're losing them on the fifth floor.

- Do that thing, Shane!

- You know it.

What do you mean? What thing?

What we're about to do

is gonna be kind of scary.

Take out your guns and shoot them!

They're shooting at us!

- Tessa, grab my stick! Grab my stick!

- What?

She's got

the best hands in the business.

Ready, Tess? Pull!

- No! No! No!

- No f-ing way!

Yeah!

Yeah!

Tessa, you are so grounded!

Sh*t! The rim's cracked.

Optimus. Come on, move! Move!

My foot's stuck! Wait, Cade!

- Lucas!

- Wait! Wait!

Lucas! Lucas, above you!

Run!

Come on, get in, let's go!

I'll bet you wish

you could see my face right now.

Lucas, we just left him?

He's gone.

My deepest sympathies

for the loss of your friend.

Stay here till I'm sure

we weren't followed.

We are all targets now.

So we're hiding out now?

That's the plan?

We're taking orders from a truck?

Well, you got a better idea?

Hey, move away from her, kid. Don't...

Keep your hands off her. All right? No.

You got your ass kicked

by a garage inventor from Texas.

That goes on your resume.

Yeah, it goes on all of yours, too!

Do I look like I'm in the mood

for any of your sh*t today?

Washington thinks

we were chasing a Decepticon target,

but our story falls apart

if we don't find this Yeager family first.

Yeah, well, what if he goes

to the cops or the FBI?

They know to hand him over.

His world as he knows it is gone.

Well, bright side, you guys met.

Where is he from?

I told you, he's a driver from Texas.

Texas?

Where, Dublin, Texas?

Shamrock, Texas?

So why does he sound

like a leprechaun?

You'd get your ass kicked in Ireland

for saying that.

Well, we're not in Ireland,

Lucky Charms. We're in Texas.

And so he drives?

What do you mean, he drives?

Like, for a living?

Yeah. At least he makes a living.

Thank you.

Look, I race rally cars.

One driver.

One navigator. Her.

By the way, I'm totally legit.

I just got picked up by Red Bull.

And just so you know,

my life savings

was in that car back there.

- This is not happening.

- It definitely is.

How old are you?

Twenty.

She's a 17-year-old girl.

So we can work this two ways.

One, I punch you right in the mouth

and you call the police on me.

Dad. Or two,

I just call the cops on you

because this is illegal. She's a minor.

We're protected by

the Romeo and Juliet laws.

We dated for a little while.

I was a sophomore,

and he was a senior. It's fine.

No, it's not fine.

We've got a preexisting

juvenile foundational relationship.

- Statute 22.011.

- What?

Texas statute?

- That a real law?

- Yep.

Romeo and Juliet?

- You know how those two ended up?

- In love.

Dead. Do your parents know about this?

Is your dad okay with you

dating a 17-year-old girl?

He took off when I was five,

but if I ever bump into him, I'll ask him.

You know, Tessa,

- I trusted you.

- To what?

Never have fun, take a risk,

be a normal teenager, like you?

I am your father, okay?

And I have been busting my ass

to take care of you.

Is that what you were doing

when you brought home the truck?

All you had to do was report it,

and now Lucas is dead.

And my life is over. Thank you.

You've taken real good care of me.

Please don't shoot me!

Please! Dad!

They were willing to kill her.

Then they still are.

Somebody somewhere gave

that order.

I'm going to find some fingerprints.

Please!

No!

I'm an Autobot! I'm an Autobot!

Grab whatever you think

we can use for supplies.

Clothes, anything.

And take that computer.

Let's go.

This is not easy.

You know,

you don't suck at everything, Dad.

What the...

I knew it.

You told me he was no one.

Well,

this "no one" has our tech.

"OPTIMUS ON RADIO".
