[TRAIN ROARING, WHISTLE BLOWING]
[ALARM BLARING]
P.A.: ATTENTION.
PREPARE FOR THE ARRIVAL OF THE ACMETROPOLIS PRISON TRAIN.
TODAY WE'RE TRANSPORTING 4 OF THE MOST DANGEROUS CRIMINALS
TO A NEW MAXIMUM SECURITY FACILITY.
Computer voice: SYPHER, POWER TRANSFER.
MASTERMIND, DIABOLICAL GENIUS.
WEATHER VANE, ATMOSPHERIC CONTROL.
MASSIVE, GRAVITY MANIPULATION.
P.A.: THESE PRISON CONTAINERS
HAVE COMPLETELY NEUTRALIZED THEIR POWERS,
AND THEY WILL BE UNDER THE SUPERVISION
OF ONE OF THE MOST COURAGEOUS MEMBERS
OF THE LOONATICS.
GREETINGS, PRISONERS--
LOSERS, PARASITES, SCUM OF SOCIETY.
I WILL BE YOUR JAILER TODAY,
SO, SIT BACK, RELAX,
AND ENJOY YOUR INCARCERATION.
YO, DUCK DUDE!
HIGH-FIVE.
SORRY, SYPHER, I'M NOT FALLING
FOR YOUR POWER-SUCKING SCHEMES.
IN FACT, YOU'RE ALL WASTING YOUR TIME
IF YOU'RE HOPING TO BUST OUT.
SHALL I CALCULATE THE ODDS ON THAT?
FORGET IT, MASTERMIND.
THIS ULTRA-HIGH-SECURITY TRANSPORT TUBE
IS TAKING YOU TO AN EVEN MORE
ULTRA-HIGH-SECURITY PENITENTIARY.
ESCAPE IS, IN A WORD, IMPOSSIBLE.
FACE IT, FELONS,
YOU'RE GONNA BE STUCK IN THOSE CELLS
FOR A LONG TIME.
WHOA!
HEY, WHO SPAT THE SPITBALL?
I'VE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE IT.
EVER SEE ANYTHING LIKE THIS?
UHH...
HEY, WAIT A MINUTE.
GET AWAY FROM ME!
AAH! AAH! AAAAHHH!
HEY, WHAT HAPPENED TO MA-- WHOA!
[GASPING]
UHH! OH!
NO, NO, NO!
HEEEELP!
FASCINATING.
HA HA HA HA HA!
HEY, YOU CAN'T ESCAPE.
I'M GUARDING YOU!
WHOA! NOOOO!
WHOA! WHERE ARE WE?
HOW DID WE GET OUT HERE?
I BROUGHT YOU HERE.
I AM OPTIMATUS.
IN THE YEAR 2772,
A METEOR STRIKES THE CITY PLANET OF ACMETROPOLIS,
KNOCKING IT OFF ITS AXIS.
THIS COSMIC EVENT RELEASES SUPERNATURAL FORCES,
UNLEASHING A NEW KIND OF HERO--
THE LOONATICS.
[CHORAL SINGING]
LET ME GET THIS RIGHT.
YOU WANT TO TAKE DOWN THE LOONATICS?
WHY SHOULD WE HELP YOU?
DO AS I ASK,
AND YOU WILL FOREVER RULE ACMETROPOLIS
AND ALL ITS RESOURCES.
ANY OBJECTIONS?
WELL, ON ONE HAND,
WE DO OWE HIM FOR GETTING US OUT OF JAIL.
BUT, ON THE OTHER HAND,
HE'S A COLD-BLOODED ALIEN
WHO PROBABLY PLANS TO TAKE OVER ACMETROPOLIS FOR HIMSELF.
ALL IN FAVOR SAY AYE.
AYE. AYE.
HANG ON. WHERE'S SYPHER?
SO WHAT YOU SAY, OPTOTMATO?
YOU LET ME SWIPE THE OTHER SUPER FREAKS' POWERS,
THEN I'LL DO THE JOB FOR YOU SOLO. OK?
AAH!
UNH!
NO SIDE DEALS.
OH, AND I DO HAVE ONE OTHER REQUEST.
ONCE YOU INVADE THE LOONATICS' HEADQUARTERS,
INSERT THIS DEVICE.
OOH, NICE WORK.
MIND IF I LOOK INSIDE?
YES. AND ANY ATTEMPT TO DO SO
WILL END VERY BADLY.
MAYBE I'D BETTER HANG ON TO THAT.
THEY ESCAPED ON MY WATCH.
I'M DOOMED!
Ace: AH, DON'T BE SO HARD ON YOURSELF, DUCK.
ACE IS RIGHT--IT'S NOT REALLY YOUR FAULT
EVEN THOUGH IT WAS A MAJOR BOTCH.
YOU'LL PROBABLY FEEL EVEN WORSE BECAUSE WE ALL KNOW
IT MAKES YOU LOOK EVEN LESS
LIKE THE KIND OF LEADER THAT YOU WANT TO BE.
JEEZ, REV. HAVE YOU EVER HEARD OF THE PHRASE,
"WHO ASKED YOU?"
WE'D BETTER TELL ZODAVIA.
Zodavia: I ALREADY KNOW!
HO, BOY.
HOW DID THEY ESCAPE, DUCK?
THEY WERE JUST KIND OF FLUSHED INTO A HOLE
AND JUST WENT POOF!
YOU MUST FIND THEM
BEFORE THE SITUATION ESCALATES.
I...I SUSPECT..
SUSPECT WHAT, ZODAVIA?
I MUST GO. I WILL CONTACT YOU LATER.
I THOUGHT I WAS SAFE HERE. I'VE RUN OUT OF TIME.
I FEAR HE'S COMING FOR ME.
FEAR NOT! I SHALL TRACK DOWN
THOSE CRIMIN-INALS
AND SERVE UP JUSTICE DUCK STYLE--
WITH A SIDE OF MELTED CHEESE.
EH...I DON'T THINK SO.
BUT MY CHEESE WILL GET COLD.
THIS IS JUST ANOTHER SAD,
DESPERATE ATTEMPT TO KISS UP TO
ZODAVIA AND HOG ALL THE GLORY.
UM, YEAH, AND YOUR POINT IS?
OK, DUCK. I'LL MAKE YOU A DEAL.
YOU CAN GO LOOK FOR THOSE SUPER JERKS...
NOW YOU'RE TALKIN'!
SO LONG AS YOU TAKE REV WITH YOU.
YEAH!
UH...SORRY.
I DON'T DO PARTNERS.
OK, THEN, WHAT ABOUT A SIDEKICK?
LOTS OF HEROES HAVE SIDEKICKS.
HMM. THAT COULD WORK.
DANGER DUCK AND ROOSTER BOY!
I LIKE IT! OK! LET'S MOVE OUT.
YOU'RE JUST KEEPING HIM BUSY.
WELL, GEE, LEXI, I HAVE NO IDEA
WHAT YOU MEAN.
TECH, GIVE ME A FULL PLANET SCAN--
POWER SURGES, GRAVITY FLUCTUATIONS--
ANYTHING THAT LOOKS SQUIRRELLY!
AHA! GOT ONE!
WE'RE GETTING A CODE RED ALARM AT THE ACMETROPOLIS ZOO.
Ace: IT'S SYPHER!
[SLAM MUMBLES]
[PEOPLE SCREAMING]
WE GOT TO FLUSH OUT THAT POWER DRAIN!
LET'S JET.
HE'S COMING. COME ON!
HURRY! HURRY!
THE LOSERTICS!
ENJOY THOSE NUTS WHILE YOU STILL
HAVE TEETH, SYPHER.
HEY, DUDES, DON'T YOU LOVE THIS?
YOU KNOW, BEING ALL UP CLOSE
WITH THE ANIMALS?
I HOPE YOU'RE NOT GIVING THEM FLEAS.
IT'S NOT WHAT I GIVE. IT'S WHAT I GET.
'CAUSE I GET TO SWIPE THEIR NATURAL ABILITIES.
THE KANGAROO'S HOP...
THE FALCON'S SPEED...
AND THE GRIZZLY BEAR'S STRENGTH.
[GRUNTS]
AND EVIDENTLY THE YAK'S SMELL
AND THE DOG'S BREATH!
GIVE UP, SYPHER. AFTER ALL, YOU ARE
OUTNUMBERED 4 TO 1.
Mastermind: WRONG, DOG BOY!
ALL RIGHT! LET'S PARTY, LOONATICS!
UH-OH.
HA HA HA HA!
GET DOWN, RABBIT.
[MOANS]
WELL, WOULD YOU LOOK AT THAT?
HE'S KISSING THE GROUND I WALK ON.
NEVER ON THE FIRST DATE.
OH!
WHOA!
HEY, SLAMMY.
[MUTTERING]
UH-OH.
YOU'RE STILL THE SAME OLD WIND BAG, FIDO.
WHICH REMINDS ME...
YEECH! WHAT'S THAT,
MEGA DANDRUFF FROM YOUR MEGA-HEAD?
NANITES-- TINY ROBOTS DESIGNED
TO TAKE OVER YOUR JET PACK.
[POWERING UP]
AAH HA HA!
CAN'T CONTROL IT!
OOF! OOF!
MASTER VILLAINS--ONE. SUPER HEROES--ZERO.
HA HA HA!
[GROANS]
HEY, TECH,
ISN'T THIS...
THE UNDERGROUND PRISON I ONCE DESIGNED
TO HOLD MASTERMIND.
YES. IT COULDN'T HOLD ME,
BUT IT'LL KEEP YOU ON ICE NICELY.
HEY, CRANIAC, EVER GET PREMONITIONS?
'CAUSE HERE COMES A PSYCHIC FLASH!
Lexi: HEY, CHILL!
DIDN'T KNOW IT WAS TIME FOR A HAIR CUT.
THE SECURITY SHIELDS I BUILT
ACTIVATE WHEN YOU TRY USING YOUR POWERS.
PRISONER-SPECIFIC DEFENSES?
NICE.
I TRY.
AND UNLESS YOU KNOW THE DEACTIVATION CODE,
NOTHING CAN GET IN OR OUT OF THAT CELL.
HEY, BIG BRAIN, HOW 'BOUT YOU
SHUT DOWN THE SHIELDS
LONG ENOUGH TO LET ME IN?
I TAKE THEIR POWERS-- BINGO!
THEY'RE NOT A THREAT ANYMORE.
BUT YOU BECOME ONE.
THAT'S WHY ONLY I CAN DROP THE SHIELDS.
HEY! HA HA.
YOU WON'T GET SYMPATHY FROM US.
WE DON'T TRUST YOU EITHER.
NOW STAY HERE AND GUARD THEM
WHILE WE GO TRACK DOWN THE OTHER TWO.
BUT REMEMBER...
NO TOUCHING. I KNOW.
CLEARLY, THIS WALL WAS PERFORATED
BY AN UNKNOWN FORCE.
THE QUESTION IS WHAT KIND? WAS IT A...
TECH MIGHT SAY THE WALLS WERE SUBJECTED
TO A TIME-SPACE DISPLACEMENT VORTEX
ALSO KNOWN AS A WORMHOLE,
THOUGH TECHNICALLY THAT'S INACCURATE,
BECAUSE THERE REALLY AREN'T ANY WORMS INVOLVED AT ALL.
I JUST REALIZED...
THERE IS BUT ONCE FORCE POWERFUL ENOUGH
TO HAVE THIS EFFECT!
TERMITES.
OR A WORMHOLE.
YEAH, THAT, TOO.
WELCOME BACK TO HEADQUARTERS,
DANGER DUCK.
FACIAL SCAN CONFIRMED.
YEAH. THERE'S A GOOD LOOK FOR YOU.
CLAM IT, WEATHER VANE...
OR YOUR FORECAST WON'T BE PRETTY.
YOU TRY ANYTHING, BUBBLEHEAD,
AND I'LL HIT YOU WITH A LITTLE
ACID RAIN.
LADIES...
WHAT DO YOU THINK THIS THING DOES?
WELL, IF YOU LET ME LOOK AT IT...
AH, AH, AH. DON'T WORRY
YOUR PRETTY LITTLE GIANT HEAD.
I'LL HANDLE THIS.
HMM. THAT LOOKS LIKE A FIT.
[BEEPING]
GENIUS!
FASCINATING.
WELCOME BACK TO HEADQUARTERS,
DANGER DUCK.
ACCESS DENIED.
FACIAL SCAN OF DANGER DUCK IS A DUPLICATE.
WHAT? WHAT DO YOU MEAN, DUPLICATE?
LISTEN, YOU OVERGROWN ATM,
WHEN THEY MADE THIS KISSER,
THEY BROKE THE MOLD.
SO OPEN THIS DOOR NOW OR ELSE--
Computer: ACCESS GRANTED.
SEE THE KIND OF RESPECT I COMMAND?
EVEN THE COMPUTERS ARE AFRAID OF ME.
WHO FORGOT TO PAY THE SATELLITE BILL?
OH, AT LAST I'M GETTING THOUGH.
DUCK--GET OUT NOW!
YOU'RE REALLY CLUELESS, AREN'T YOU?
BLAST 'EM!
YIKES!
AAH!
AAAAH!
WHAT DID I DO TO DESERVE WORKING
WITH YOU SUPER-INCOMPETENTS?
HUH? HUH?
Zodavia: REV, DUCK. CAN YOU HEAR ME?
I'M TAPPED INTO A PRIVATE DATANET.
BAD SIGNAL.
YOU MUST FIND THE OTHER LOONATICS.
ALL MY SYSTEMS HAVE BEEN SABOTAGED.
FIND THE OTHERS--NOW!
FOCUS, FOCUS, FOCUS, FOCUS.
THINK, THINK, THINK!
OH! WHAT HAVE YOU GOT?
A HEADACHE. WAIT! THAT'S IT!
DUCK--A HEADACHE!
WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?
WHO HAS THE BIGGEST HEAD YOU KNOW?
MASTERMIND, RIGHT? AND WHO WAS
IN A SPECIALLY DESIGNED UNDERGROUND PRISON
THAT ISN'T OPEN ANYMORE? MASTERMIND AGAIN!
SO WHERE WOULD BE THE CLOSEST PLACE FOR HER
TO LOCK UP OUR BUDDIES?
UM...GO FISH?
THE UNDERGROUND PRISON TECH DESIGNED. COME ON!
HEY! WAIT UP! YOU'RE JUST A SIDEKICK!
[TUNELESS WHISTLING]
YO, DUDES, GIVE IT UP.
MASTERMIND RESET THE DEACTIVATION CODE.
SHE TELL YOU WHAT IT WAS?
ARE YOU KIDDING? IF I KNEW THOSE
6 LITTLE NUMBERS,
I'D HAVE ALL YOUR POWERS BY NOW.
Danger Duck: AHEM.
FORGET ABOUT SOMEBODY?
DUCK, ENTERTAIN OUR FRIEND.
REV, HELP US GET OUT OF HERE.
YOU CAN LOOK... HA HA HA...
BUT YOU CAN'T...
TOUCH.
TRY AGAIN.
OK, ACE I'M RARIN' TO GO.
THE SECURITY CODE CONTAINS 6 NUMBERS.
RANDOM SEQUENCE--HURRY!
TOO SLOW.
POLO!
YAAAH!
NO GO.
UH-OH.
FEEL LIKE A LITTLE COMPANY, DUDES?
SO NOW THAT I STOLE DUCK'S POWERS,
I'M GONNA QUACK MYSELF INSIDE THERE
AND STEAL YOURS, TOO.
UH-OH.
WANT A LITTLE SUPER SPEED...DUDE?
OH...WHY DIDN'T I REALIZE IT BEFORE?
I THINK I KNOW THE DEACTIVATION CODE!
YOU DO?
DUCK!
GET TO THE KEY PAD!
CAN'T A GUY RECOVER FROM AN INJURY?
I'D JUST LIKE TO POINT OUT THAT I'M DOING ALL
THE HEAVY LIFTING HERE.
HURRY, TELL HIM THE CODE!
1, 6...
3, 2...
0, 8.
OK!
[ALARM BEEPS]
IMPOSSIBLE! SOMEBODY SHUT OFF
THE PRISON SECURITY SYSTEM!
BUT HOW DID THEY KNOW THE CODE?
THAT'S IT? MASTERMIND'S
LOCKER COMBINATION?
YEAH. WE SHARED ONE IN COLLEGE.
HA. WELL, IT'S A... LONG STORY.
EEW.
YOU DID IT!
I DID? I RULE!
AW, NO!
Ace: AH, YEAH!
WE'VE GOT A LITTLE SCORE TO SETTLE, SYPHER.
YOU LET THEM ESCAPE?
RELAX, WEATHER GIRL. I'M HANDLING IT.
SEE?
NEVER LET A BOY DO A WEATHER GIRL'S JOB.
FLYING DAGGER PENS!
REPULSER FRAMISTAD.
WEAPONIZED SPOON!
AUTOMATED PATROZINI!
KAMIKAZE KEYCHAIN!
DEFLECTO FEEMLE-FAZZER!
HERE'S ANOTHER PRESENT FOR YOU, DUCK.
OH HO HO. THAT'S OK.
I DON'T NEED ANY PRESENTS.
WHOA-OA-OA!
[MUTTERING]
I'M HAVING PERSONAL SPACE ISSUES.
WELL, WHAT DO YOU SAY WE GET OUT OF HERE?
AHEM--FIRST FLOOR, FURNITURE, TOYS.
LADIES' UNDERGARMENTS.
SLAM, A LITTLE BLOWBACK, PLEASE.
GO!
BRING DOWN THAT ELEVATOR!
WITH PLEASURE.
[GRUNTS]
NOT QUITE WHAT I HAD IN MIND.
NICE GOING, TECH.
NOBODY GET COMFY. WE GOT COMPANY.
CARE FOR ANOTHER ROUND, LOONATICS?
I'M GONNA WIPE THE SHINE RIGHT OFF THAT HEAD.
ZODAVIA?
EHH...NOT EXACTLY.
[GASP]
I ASK YOU TO DO ONE SIMPLE THING...
CATCH THE LOONATICS.
BUT YOU CAN'T EVEN DO THAT.
I SHOULD ERADICATE YOU AS WELL.
OH! NO!
BUT I SUPPOSE YOU MAY STILL PROVE USEFUL TO ME.
NO WAY, SUCTION BOY!
DUCK--WAIT!
YOU'VE STILL GOT A LITTLE SOMETHING CALLED
MY POWERS TO RETURN!
OH! OH!
Duck: YEOW!
[GASP]
[SPITTING]
WHOOPS.
WELL...LOOK WHAT THE WORMHOLE
JUST DRAGGED IN.
WHO...WAS THAT?
[MUTTERING]
LOONATICS.
THERE'S SOMETHING I MUST TELL YOU.
IT'S ZODAVIA!
IN THE FLESH!
UH, ZODAVIA, YOU KNOW, SOMETHING ABOUT
THAT BIG GUY LOOKED FAMILIAR.
I'M NOT SURPRISED. AFTER ALL...
HE IS MY BROTHER.
OH, BROTHER.
WELL, EVERY FAMILY HAS ITS PROBLEMS.
