00:00The Transformers
00:10More than meets the eye
00:12Autobots wage their battle
00:15To destroy the evil forces of
00:18The Decepticons
00:20The Transformers
00:22More than meets the eye
00:24The Transformers
00:26More than meets the eye
00:28The Transformers
00:30The Transformers
00:46Success, Megatron
00:48Yes, Soundwave
00:50That must be the source
00:52Of the rare energy detected
00:54By our Earth Scanners
00:56Then let's get to its core
00:58And drink its power dry
01:00I give the orders here, Starscream
01:03The energy could be dangerously unstable
01:06Soundwave, send an Auto-Scout into the crevice
01:10Auto-Scout activated
01:14It is programmed to analyze and report
01:18Well, Soundwave, energy emanates from crystalline structures
01:23Describe more fully
01:25Crystalline structures are quartz-like
01:27And packed with layers of multicolored rods
01:31Colonium crystals
01:33The most rare and dangerous form of raw energy in this solar system
01:38Do not permit the Auto-Scout to make contact
01:41Those crystals are deadly
01:43I've never heard of colonium crystals
01:45I've never heard of colonium crystals
01:47It's just such ignorance
01:49Which forever relegates you
01:51To the ranks of Underlane Starscream
01:53I warn you
01:55Stay well, Buck
01:57Colonium crystals destroy electronic circuitry
02:00On the slightest contact
02:02Then let's trick Optimus Prime
02:04Into leading his Autobots into this crevice
02:06Optimus Prime would never do anything so foolish
02:10At least not the real Optimus Prime
02:14The real Optimus Prime? What do you mean?
02:16You shall see
02:18The Autobots will soon detect the crystal energy and come to investigate
02:22And I shall be waiting for them
02:26In my temporary base of operations
02:30Those weird lights are coming from that crevice, Optimus Prime
02:38It doesn't make any sense
02:40Wow! Those lights are hotter than a Cybertronic laser flare
02:45Man, if I could put on a light show that goo
02:48I dazzle multitudes of music lovers
02:50Hot, cool, or whatever
02:52While you motorize Mumbler's talk
02:54I'm gonna check out those lights
02:56Take some readings first, Cliffjumper
02:59The source of those lights could be dangerous
03:02All the danger you can handle is already here
03:06Floptimus Prime
03:08Starscream, it's a trap
03:11Brilliant deduction
03:13Decepticons, fire!
03:16I'm sorry there are only three of you
03:30Clobbering less than four Decepticons at a time is boring
03:34You won't be bored for long, Optimus Prime
03:38Soundwave, eject Laserbeak
03:41Target Optimus Prime
03:44Laserbeak, you tinfoil turkey
03:54Laserbeak
04:01Laserbeak, hold your fire
04:06I want holographic views of Optimus Prime from every angle
04:11But do not harm him
04:13The Autobots themselves will punish him for us
04:18When the time is right
04:20Excellent! The fallen gladiator is very photogenic
04:26Transmit holograms
04:28Excellent! The fallen gladiator is very photogenic
04:38Transmit holograms
04:41Perfect! Now to begin the cloning process
04:48It is Optimus Prime
04:59Nonsense! This is a clone of our enemy
05:03A perfect replica down to the last transistor
05:07But there is one important difference
05:11I control this Optimus Prime
05:18I am Optimus Prime
05:20I am Optimus Prime
05:22Leader of the Autobots
05:24Leader of the Autobots
05:25And at Megatron's command
05:28And at Megatron's command
05:31I will lead them to their doom
05:34Optimus! You okay?
05:40I will be
05:42Must have charred my Equilibrium chips in the fall
05:45But they'll stabilize
05:47Now
05:49Let's finish these Decepticons
05:51Hey! Perfect timing! The creeps are retreating!
05:57Autobots, transform!
06:00Return to headquarters!
06:04I must have blacked out
06:16Where is everybody?
06:18Bumblebee, come over here
06:23The computer is not responding to my input
06:27Bumblebee, I'm speaking to you
06:30You talking to me?
06:34Of course
06:35But I'm not Bumblebee
06:37I'm Ironhide, Prim
06:39I meant Ironhide, naturally
06:42Tell me, when was Teletran 1 checked out?
06:45It isn't working properly
06:47You did that yourself this morning, Optimus
06:50And you're punching the wrong controls
06:52Something's very wrong with Optimus Prime
06:55You're telling me
06:57Prime, what's wrong with you?
06:59You're acting like you don't know any of us
07:01Like you don't even know your way around
07:03What?
07:05It was the fall
07:06I...I told you it rattled my circuitry
07:09The outer perimeter alarm!
07:12But all Autobots are already inside
07:15Let's punch up the entry scanner
07:17So we can see who...
07:19What the?
07:20It's Optimus Prime
07:22Amazing
07:24He looks exactly like me
07:26Let him in
07:27But...
07:28He's obviously a Decepticon imposter
07:31As soon as he's within range
07:33Shoot him down
07:35Now Autobots, destroy the imposter!
07:45No! Hold your fire!
07:47No shooting until we're sure who's for real
07:49And who isn't
08:01Well...it looks like you all made it back safely
08:05I'm relieved
08:07And where have you been all this time, Prime?
08:09Laserbeak attacked
08:11Laserbeak attacked
08:12And I fell into a ravine
08:13And...what's going on?
08:15Is this some kind of game?
08:17I'm afraid it's no game
08:19He says he's Optimus Prime
08:21Which would mean that I'm an imposter
08:25You can't talk your way out of this one
08:27Every Autobot knows I am the genuine Optimus Prime
08:31Teletran, you're the only one who can tell us
08:37Which Optimus Prime is Optimus Prime?
08:41Detailed comparison forthcoming
08:45Both subjects identical
08:55Therefore, both are Optimus Prime
08:58But there can only be one real Prime
09:00We gotta set up some tests of our own
09:03I welcome the challenge
09:05This will be a test of laser raffle sharpshooting
09:10Hit that stone slab at the top of the cliff
09:14Then make it ricochet
09:16To that exact spot marked X
09:19Then ricochet back up again to that same stone
09:23Piece of chrome alloy cake, huh?
09:25Take your positions
09:27And fire when ready
09:29You may go first
09:38Perfect! Now it's yours
09:44Well, it seems this contest is already over
09:49They just don't make rocky overhangs like they used to
09:57Okay, we'll settle this with a race
10:02Ready? Transform!
10:05Gee, even their transforms are the same
10:12Now, first one to the other side of the flats and back is the winner
10:16On your marks, go!
10:24What happened to ready and get set?
10:27I got so excited, I guess I forgot
10:30They're raising so much dust, I can't see who's winning
10:33Stand aside, here they come
10:42What took you so long?
10:44I guess we struck out on the tests
10:51Hey guys, Teletran 1 reports more activity at the energy crevice
10:57The lights are glowing more and more intensely
11:00I'll say
11:01They're reaching critical temperature
11:03We gotta stop that reaction before the whole area explodes
11:07These energy amplifiers are giving Teletran 1 exactly the wrong readings
11:20Which are just the right readings to lure the Autobots back to the crevice
11:24And their doom
11:30Autobots, hold it
11:32Until we get your identities unscrambled
11:35I'll give the orders
11:37Autobots, transform
11:40Roll out for the energy crevice
11:49Autobots, transform
11:53Be on guard
11:54We could be heading into another Decepticon trap
11:57We'll spring any traps that need to be sprung
12:00Did someone mention traps?
12:05I don't mind hitting the dirt
12:07But I don't enjoy eating it
12:13The Autobots are gloriously confused
12:17We shall crush them once and for all
12:20Not yet
12:21They must be willing to follow my prime clone into that crevice
12:26He must win their complete trust
12:29And to do that
12:31He must destroy one of us
12:35Yes, yes
12:36Destroying a Decepticon
12:38Will convince the Autobots
12:40Your replica is the real Optimus Prime
12:43Exactly
12:44And do you have any idea
12:46Which Decepticon will be brave enough to make that sacrifice?
12:50It should be a trusted officer to make it look really good
12:55Precisely
12:57Which is why I've decided on you
13:03I? Starscream?
13:05The pride of the Cybertron War Academy?
13:08Never do you hear me?
13:10Never!
13:11Soundwave
13:16Eject Laserbeak
13:20Bring Starscream back without delay
13:26Windcharger, look! Laserbeak and Starscream
13:32They came out of the mountainside
13:34It looks like Laserbeak's chasing Starscream
13:38Then let's find out why
13:41We'll check out that mountainside
13:43They seem to come right out of it
13:45You're not taking me back
13:47I refuse to sacrifice myself
13:51There's gotta be a way in because this is where they came out
14:01Quick Spike, duck!
14:09Your cowardice prevented you from hearing me out, Starscream
14:13I am planning to have my clone of Optimus Prime destroy your clone
14:18Not you
14:20After that show of leadership
14:22The Autobots will follow the False Prime into the Energy Krillus
14:26And Saturn Doom
14:28Now
14:31It doesn't even tickle my transistors
14:34Your sisters
14:40Very handsome, if I say so myself
14:43Will it be as brave as I in battle?
14:46Brave?
14:47Well, let's say as obedient
14:50Because you will be controlling all of its actions
14:54Now the time has come for Starscream to sacrifice himself in battle
14:59As you command, Megatron
15:04It's Laserbeak! Run, Windcharger!
15:17Whoa!
15:19Aaaaaaah!
15:21You are more fortunate than your Autobot friend, Puny Human
15:38He no longer exists
15:40Soundwave, let the boy come closer
15:43I want him to watch his friends being led to their doom
15:48In the crevice of light
15:50Not a chance, Megarat
15:52The Autobots won't be played for suckers
15:55You and your deceptic goons will lose
15:57Not this time
15:59And once we have dispensed with Optimus Prime and the Autobots
16:03We will dispose of you
16:06Now watch
16:07Quite an interesting little drama, isn't it?
16:20Jazz! Hit the deck! I want a clean shot at Starscream!
16:26Marvelous! I have written a brilliant scenario of Autobot destruction!
16:39Not quite as brilliant as it would be if I were there myself to wipe out Optimus Prime
16:44But that is not Optimus Prime, you dynametal don't!
16:48This is your cue, Starscream! Say your line!
16:52Decepticons! Autobots! Hold your fire!
16:57Did you have a blowout in your brain box, Starscream?
17:01I've got an Autobot, right?
17:03I said hold your fire!
17:05I challenge the leader of the Autobots, the great Optimus Prime
17:10To a one-on-one battle to the finish!
17:14How are you gonna know which one to take on?
17:17Nah! This is the one that I will destroy!
17:21Alright! So what happens when one of you wins?
17:24The loser and his troops must leave the area immediately and forever!
17:33Agreed! Let's get on with it!
17:35Then let the contest begin!
17:51There will be nothing less of him but molecular crumbs! Victory is mine!
18:13Listen, Autobots! This Prime just destroyed the Decepticons' number two varmint!
18:18He can't be working for Megatron!
18:20Which means he must be the real Optimus Prime!
18:24What are your orders, Prime?
18:27Follow me, Autobots! Into the crevice!
18:31We've got to investigate the source of those energy emissions!
18:35Ironhide! Wheeljack! Trailblazer! Autobots! All of you!
18:39Do not follow him!
18:41Hey, man! The real Optimus Prime wouldn't chicken out on a little recon operation!
18:46Right! We follow him!
18:50Wing Charger!
18:52You are in the crevice?
18:53Then this is Optimus Prime!
18:54And he is telling us the truth!
18:55The crevice is safe!
18:56No way! The only reason I survived is because I transformed before I landed on a heap of carlonium crystals!
19:00Those crystals destroy all electronic parts on contact!
19:02But when you transformed, your rubber tires insulated you!
19:06Exactly! You're being led into a trap set by Megatron, who's also got Spike!
19:12Pure drivel! Megatron has obviously reprogrammed Windcharger's logic circuits to mislead you all!
19:16There is nothing that will harm us in the crevice!
19:18Now follow me and we'll give Megatron a taste of his own medicine!
19:22But what about Spike?
19:24He's unimportant! Follow me! Forget the crystals, Autobots!
19:26Now we know which Prime is Prime!
19:28The real one would save Spike!
19:32Yeah!
19:34Yeah! Even we'd never get those weird crystals!
19:40So you're the phony!
19:42That's what I've been trying to tell!
19:44You're the phony!
19:46That's what I've been trying to tell!
19:48You're the phony!
19:52Now we know which Prime is Prime!
19:54The real one would save Spike!
19:56Yeah! Even we never get those weird crystals!
19:58So you're the phony!
20:00That's what I've been trying to tell!
20:02That's what I've been trying to tell you! He's an evil clone! An empty shell!
20:08Autobots, destroy the impostor!
20:19No! Do not!
20:23My magnificent creation! Vaporized!
20:27With Prime's replica destroyed, we must escape! Now!
20:36Faster! Before they run for it!
20:49You won't catch me, Prime! But here's something to catch if you can!
20:55He...he's dropped Spike!
21:00From one ship...to another...
21:04No big deal!
21:08I'm sorry, I couldn't hang on to Megatron, guys!
21:12Don't worry, Spike! We'll nail him next time!
21:16Is it really you, Optimus Prime? I mean, really?
21:21Yes, Spike. This time I am definitely me.
21:25Your eye. Myself.
21:27Whoever I am. Put her there, partner.
21:29You're there, partner.
21:30You're there, partner.
21:32You're there, man!
