Transformers Prime (2010) s01e26 Episode Script
One Shall Rise (3)
Previously on Transformers Prime: If you don't survive, Optimus, I fear neither will this planet! No!!! What happened? Wasn't me.
Me neither.
I happened! Optimus! Our past alliances Autobot, Decepticon no longer matter, not while Unicron lives.
I can lead you directly into Unicron's Spark.
A truce between Autobot and Decepticon Optimus! How are we supposed to stop Unicron? With a Matrix of Leadership.
It appears our Leader has abandoned us.
I believe we must consider the possibility of a future without Megatron.
Jack I feel you have earned the responsibility of safeguarding this important device.
Until I return.
So how long before Unicron knows we're here? Make no mistake: he already does.
1x26 - One Shall Rise - part 3 - Argh! Unicron grows ever stronger.
How do we know Unicron isn't using Megatron to lead us all into a trap? We do not.
Transcribed by Skeinweaver by f1nc0 More than sixty volcanoes are erupting worldwide, and downtown Honolulu is under six inches of snow! Scientists continue to devise there is connectings between unprecendented natural disasters with the planetary alignment which- So.
Who wants to play a game? - That is it! - Where are you going? I can't just sit on my hands when the world spins out of control.
And what exactly is that that you intend to do? Anything! Hook up with my boys at the Finnegan, figure out a way to bury that monster for good! In the event Optimus can't? Don't you mean "Optimus and Megatron"? No one here is thrilled about this arrangement, agent Fowler, myself included.
But with Optimus and Megatron together again Wow, wait, again? - Megatron was an Autobot? - Optimus was a 'Con? No, on either count.
But, there was a time, back on Cybertron, in the twilight hours of the Golden age, when Optimus and Megatron were not sworn enemies.
Do you recall when I mentioned that Optimus wasn't always a Prime? And he wasn't always Optimus, either.
He was once a clerk, in the Iacon Hall of Records, named Orion Pax.
But as he learned more about Cybertron's past, he grew increasingly concerned about the present corruption in high places, an inequality among the masses.
Orion became inspired by the words and ideas of a gladiator one who had named himself after one of the thirteen original Primes Megatronus.
Megatronus vowed to challenge Cyberton's leadership and demand that all Cybertronians be treated as equals.
This gladiator turned revolutionary rapidly to gather loyal following.
Soundwave chief among them.
Orion began corresponding with Megatronus who came to be something of the mentor to him.
As Megatronus left the gladiatorial arena for the political, he saw fit to shorten his name.
Before long, Megatron appeared before the High Council to propose his vision for a just society.
And it was here that he began to reveal his true colours proclaiming the need to overthrow the old Guard with force and arrogantly demanding to be named the next Prime.
But Orion did not believe in violence as a means of achieving justice.
The sparks and minds of the Council were moved by Orion's words.
Here, for the first time since Cybertron's Golden age, stood someone worthy of being a Prime.
But that honour could only truly be achieved by earning the legendary Matrix of leadership.
His ambitions thwarted, Megatron spitefully severed all ties with Orion and the Council, and came to wage war on all who opposed him through his growing army of followers which he named "Decepticons".
He vowed to claim the Matrix for himself, wherever it might lie.
In time, warfare consumed Cybertron, poisoning the planet to its core.
Orion journeyed there, hoping to reverse the ill effects and found himself before the very Spark of our life-giver -- Primus himself.
The ailing Primus sensed the innate nobility within Orion and bestowed the Matrix upon him.
It was thus that the surprised and humbled Orion Pax came to be Optimus, the last of the Primes.
So, Optimus got a Matrix from Cybertron's core, and now he's gonna give it to Earth? What's to stop Megatron from just claiming the Matrix for himself this time around? Only his greater desire to save this planet so that he may in turn conquer it! As he so compellingly argued Provided the Lord of the Decepticons can ever be fully trusted.
Unicron's Spark is near.
After you.
I'm fine, Bee.
Just woozy.
The dark energon.
It's starting to affect him.
Steady, easy go Bulk.
He is preparing to expel us.
What are those things? As we are within Unicron's body, it stands to reason they are some sort of antibody.
Bee! Let me go! I'll only take you down with me! Just let go, kid! Bulkhead! I got you.
Arcee? Fellow Decepticons! While our loyalty to Megatron's command has always remained steadfast, our Leader recent behaviour has been questionable at best.
And it would seem as though Earth has become nothing short of a failed experiment.
Commander Arachnia! You're not suggesting that we abandon Lord Megatron? Despite Soundwave's efforts we have been unable to detect our Master's signal.
Megatron is either permanently offlined, or in the thrall of Unicron.
Neither is in the best interest of the Decepticons.
So I'm deeming an exit is to be the most prudent course of action.
Unless anyone has a problem with that.
Set course for Regulon 4.
You have something to say, Soundwave? I command this vessel.
You will resume your post.
Step aside! Oho.
I'll tear out your Spark for that! I yield.
Watch out for the quiet ones.
Communication links are down as expected.
But we've lost their signal.
Doesn't that mean?.
.
Usually.
But the more likely explanation would be the severe interference caused by these electromagnetic anomalies.
So, if we can't track them and they can't contact us How do we know they are ready for pickup? Where did you get that? Optimus Honestly, I don't know why did he give me the ground-bridge power supply.
Jack.
There's no key to the ground-bridge.
What, then What IS this? That is the key to Vector Sigma.
The what?! You are holding one of Cybertron's most important relics.
I I shouldn't have this.
Optimus entrusted it to you, Jack.
But that doesn't make any sense why? Because he doesn't plan on coming back.
Megatron! Do as I command! Destroy the Prime! Megatron! Unicron's Spark lies just beyond! How do we get inside? By fooling Unicron's defences into believing we're not a threat.
Autobots! I would need you to keep our attackers at bay for as long as you can.
We've got a full fest! For Optimus! Optimus!.
.
Swiftly! Megatron! Destroy the Prime! I command you! Megatron is commanded by no one! Earthquake! Take cover! Matrix of Leadership! I call upon you! You cannot defeat me, disciple of Primus! I have transcended physical being! By my will alone all upon this world shall fall into chaos! Not while I still function, Unicron! The power of the Matrix will light our darkest hour! Nooo! There could be aftershocks.
Do you think? I do.
- Yes! - Whee! - Oh yeah! - Yes! Oh! He-he.
Teamwork.
Hm! Where are we, Megatronus? Don't you remember, old friend? Optimus! Are you okay? Why did he call me that? What did you do to him? Who are they? Our mortal enemies! We're outnumbered.
Go! I'll cover you! Arcee! Ah! Oh, I was worried, Bulk! You alright, Bee? And Optimus? Is he.
.
? Dead? No.
But he looked right at us without recognising us.
Didn't even know his own name! When Optimus surrendered the Matrix of Leadership, he lost more than the collective wisdom of the Primes.
He lost his own memories.
Welcome back, Lord Megatron.
At ease, Breakdown.
That is no way to welcome our long lost comrade.
Orion Pax! Is one of us.
To be continued.
