Beast Wars
"The Agenda, Part 4"
SEASON 2 FINALE
ACT ONE
We open with a narration by Victoria.
VICTORIA (V. O.)
Rhinox has been tracking a trans warp wave front that recently entered Cybertronian space. We were expecting the Maximals to come, but instead, what we got was a Decepticon turned Predacon named Ravage. He helped us take Galvatron prisoner, and after interrogating Galvatron, told us where we could find some Energon. But the Energon cache turned out to be a trap. To make matters worse, Ravage turned on us! We managed to beat him, then followed Galvatron to the Ark - an ancient Autobot ship that crashed on Earth four million years ago. Galvatron attacked a comatose Optimus Prime, and the result is the Maximals slowly fading out of existence. I'm the only one not affected by the time storm; it's up to me to protect everyone.
Fade in.
EXT. - EST. - TUNNEL - OUTSIDE THE ARK - BEAST WARS WORLD. NIGHT.
Victoria's watching, almost helplessly, as the Maximals suffer the effects of the time storm. She looks down at the gun in her hand; it, too, is starting to fade away.
ANOTHER ANGLE.
She's still got her bow and arrow quiver slung over her back. He takes out her bow and holds it tight with both hands.
VICTORIA
(thinking)
It's up to me. I'm gonna have to protect everyone until we can figure out how to end this storm.
She takes out an arrow and hurries into the Ark.
Quick cut to:
INT. - ARK - CONTROL ROOM. NIGHT.
Galvatron - Robot Form - is watching with great enthusiasm as the time storm continues. Even Blackarachnia's suffering; she's fading in and out of existence.
GALVATRON
Yes! Go! Go, my time storm! Do it! Destroy it all!
THWACK! An arrow hits him in the side of the neck. He pulls it out and looks at it, before looking behind him.
On: Victoria.
She's got another arrow aimed at him.
VICTORIA
Galvatron, you are so despicable. Now, die!
GALVATRON
How cute.
He SNAPS the arrow between his thumb and index finger.
GALVATRON
The little human thinks she can win in a fight against me.
VICTORIA
I'm not going to let you go, even if you beg for mercy!
She lets the arrow fly. It hits Galvatron in the eye.
GALVATRON
GAH! You little vermin! Beast Form!
Galvatron - TRANSFORMATION SEQUENCE.
He TRANSFORMS into his Beast Form and prepares to launch a stream of fire at Victoria. She quickly leaps out of the way, diving behind a control panel.
GALVATRON
I thought you had come to kill me, little girl. You can't do that while hiding, noo!
He breathes some fire on the control panel, igniting it.
Back on: Victoria.
She quickly crawls out from behind the control panel and shoots an arrow at Galvatron. It bounces harmlessly against his scales.
GALVATRON
Die, you little insect.
He SWIPES at her with one of his front legs. Victoria ducks and rolls out of the way. She stands and shoots an arrow at Galvatron again. This one hits him in the eye.
GALVATRON
AH!
VICTORIA
I WILL protect my friends, Galvatron!
GALVATRON
You and your "friends" will die, human germ!
He opens his mouth. It's glowing; he's getting ready to breathe fire again.
VICTORIA
Not if I can help it!
She shoots an arrow into his mouth; it sticks into the skin inside his jaw.
GALVATRON
Puny, insignificant human!
Victoria runs away as he breathes some fire.
GALVATRON
You can't run away from me!
OVER TO - BLACKARACHNIA.
She's collapsed to the floor. Silverbolt - Robot Form - crawls over to her.
SILVERBOLT
Blackarachnia! I'm here. Stay with me.
Back on: Galvatron.
He's looking around; he's still trying to find Victoria.
GALVATRON
Where are you, human? I can smell you; I can smell your fear, yess.
BEHIND HIM -
An auto gun lowers from the roof. It aims at Galvatron and FIRES. The blast hits him in the back of the neck.
GALVATRON
What?!
He looks back at the auto gun, then notices Victoria at the controls. Because the buttons are larger than she is, she's leaping between them, pressing them with her feet and firing the auto gun at Galvatron.
VICTORIA
Ha. This is just like playing Dance Dance Revolution back home.
Back on: Galvatron.
He takes another shot, this one in the face.
GALVATRON
Enough of this!
He GRABS the auto gun in his mouth and TEARS it off the roof, then turns his attention to Victoria.
VICTORIA
Oh slag.
Galvatron launches a stream of fire at her. Victoria leaps off the control panel as the fire hits it.
GALVATRON
I think not.
He SNAPS at Victoria as she falls; he misses, and she lands hard on the floor.
VICTORIA
Ouch.
GALVATRON
You little vermin. Terrorize!
Galvatron - TRANSFORMATION SEQUENCE.
He TRANSFORMS into his Robot Form and grabs Victoria in his hand. He lifts her off the floor.
VICTORIA
Let me go!
GALVATRON
There's so many ways I could end your miserable life, you worm. I could stomp you into the ground like an ant to a boot. I could char you with my firebreath and swallow you in one gulp. But I would rather enjoy hearing your cries of pain as I crush the life out of you!
He tightens his grip, and we:
Fade out.
End Act One.
ACT TWO
Fade in.
INT. - ARK - CONTROL ROOM. NIGHT.
Silverbolt reaches out to Blackarachnia's hand.
SILVERBOLT
Stay by me, Blackarachnia. Whatever this storm is, I will protect you.
BLACKARACHNIA
I think you might want to worry about protecting your little friend, Dog Boy.
She points over to Galvatron, who's still holding Victoria in a tight grip.
SILVERBOLT
No! W - what should we do?
Back on: Galvatron.
He tightens his grip even more.
GALVATRON
With the destruction of Optimus Prime, the Decepticons and the Predacons will rule Cybertron - no, not just Cybertron, but the entire universe!
Blackarachnia climbs to her feet.
BLACKARACHNIA
You forget, you walking blow torch, that I was a Maximal protoform.
GALVATRON
What?
Blackarachnia looks over to the keypad.
BLACKARACHNIA
Teletraan-1, activate.
The laser beams shoot from her eyes and hit the keypad.
ANOTHER ANGLE.
Galvatron's hit with what looks like a net of electricity. He loses his grip on Victoria and drops her.
SILVERBOLT
I'm coming!
He catches her just before she hits the ground.
SILVERBOLT
Are you alright?
Victoria doesn't answer; she's out cold.
SILVERBOLT
Please, child. Please wake up.
Back on: Galvatron.
The electric net forces him to the entrance of the Ark, and he's BLOWN through the large entrance doors. He flies past the Maximals and SLAMS into a large stalagmite, nearly shattering it; the impact knocks some rocks loose from the cave roof, though. One of those rocks hits him on the head. More rocks fall on top of him, burying him.
ANOTHER ANGLE.
Blackarachnia slowly makes her way over to Silverbolt and Victoria - it's not easy with the time storm.
BLACKARACHNIA
There. We saved your friend. Happy?
SILVERBOLT
Nothing would make me happier. Except ending this time storm.
BLACKARACHNIA
Then leave the girl here and follow me.
SILVERBOLT
What? What are you doing?
BLACKARACHNIA
It's not what I'm doing. It's what I'm undoing. Now help me get up there.
Silverbolt picks Blackarachnia up and flies her up a nearby control panel. She presses a few buttons. Something comes out of the roof near Optimus Prime - it looks like some sort of defibrilator. Silverbolt flies up to it.
Back on: Blackarachnia.
She presses a few more buttons.
BLACKARACHNIA
I've turned on the auxillary life support.
OVER TO - VICTORIA.
She slowly wakes up. She sits up and looks around.
VICTORIA
What's going on?
BLACKARACHNIA
Well, look who decided to stay alive. Well, since you're up, you might as well help us get Big Mack here stabalized before his lights go out for good.
VICTORIA
What are you talking about?
SILVERBOLT
If we save Optimus Prime, we save the universe!
VICTORIA
Oh. What can I do?
BLACKARACHNIA
Climb up here for starters.
She shoots her grappling hook to the floor. Victoria climbs up the cable and joins Blackarachnia on the control panel.
BLACKARACHNIA
When I tell you to, push that button.
VICTORIA
Got it.
ANOTHER ANGLE.
Silverbolt lines the Autobot insignia at the end of the defibrilator up with the Autobot insignia on Optimus Prime's shoulder and attatches it.
SILVERBOLT
It's done!
BLACKARACHNIA
Now, kid!
Victoira hits the button. Power flows from cables in the roof into the defibrilator.
ANOTHER ANGLE.
The whirlwind starts to die down, and after a few seconds, it's gone completely.
SILVERBOLT
The time storm...It appears to be stabalizing somewhat.
VICTORIA
Well, something tells me that it won't stay like this for long.
BLACKARACHNIA
Never thought I'd agree with a human, but she's right. The big man's still dying.
Blackarachnia and Silverbolt shimmer; they're still feeling the effects of the time storm.
VICTORIA
And if we don't save him, anyone connected to him is going to fade out of existence.
A large door opens at the end of the room; the other Maximals come in - Optimus, in his Flight Mode, is carrying Rhinox; Cheetor, also in his flight mode, is carrying Rattrap, and Stinkbomb, in his Beast Form, is riding on Grimlock's back.
VICTORIA
Guys! You're okay!
OPTIMUS PRIMAL
Silverbolt, Victoria, what -
He stops himself when they notice Optimus Prime.
OPTIMUS PRIMAL
Well, that's just prime.
RATTRAP
Or what's left of him, anyway.
Rhinox backhands him.
ANOTHER ANGLE.
They join Victoria, Silverbolt, and Blackarachnia near the control console.
CHEETOR
He's our ancestor; we've got to get him repaired, now. If we don't, we're all gonna die.
RATTRAP
Hey! Don't go stealing my line.
Fade to:
A FEW MOMENTS LATER -
Rhinox presses some buttons on a control panel.
RHINOX
We'll never make it in time.
VICTORIA
What do you mean, Rhinox?
RHINOX
His Spark's already joining the Matrix. With the repair trauma, we'll lose it for sure.
STINKBOMB
But, we've got to do something.
OPTIMUS PRIMAL
We will. We'll move it.
RHINOX
Optimus, you know as well as I do that Prime's Spark can't exist outside a living body.
OPTIMUS PRIMAL
You're right.
He points to his chest.
OPTIMUS PRIMAL
That's why I'm taking it.
He flies over to Optimus Prime's body.
RATTRAP
Have you crossed your wires, Boss Monkey? You can't hold two Sparks in your body!
RHINOX
Besides, this Spark's one with the Autobot Matrix of Leadership. It's too powerful for a Maximal.
Optimus transforms into his Robot Form. The Maximals shimmer again.
OPTIMUS PRIMAL
Do you have any better ideas, because it seems to me like we don't have a choice.
He hovers in front of Optimus Prime's chest. He touches it, and it folds open, revealing a Spark inside an oblong shaped object - the Autobot Matrix of Leadership. Optimus takes the Matrix out of Prime's chest. His own chest opens, revealing his own Spark.
A red laser beam shoots out of Prime's Spark and hits Optimus's own Spark. Optimus recoils in pain. A few seconds later, he's thrown back against the wall, and he loses his grip on the Matrix.
GRIMLOCK
Uh oh.
VICTORIA
I've got it!
She quickly hurries over to the Matrix and catches it just before it hits the ground.
VICTORIA
Got it.
RHINOX
Way to go, squirt.
STINKBOMB
Nice catch, frauline.
Cheetor looks up to Blackarachnia, who's still standing on the control console.
CHEETOR
Get that repair sequence started, now!
BLACKARACHNIA
Okay, okay.
She presses a button on the control panel. A metal tube comes down from the roof and envelops Prime's head.
Fade to:
EXT. - TUNNEL - OUTSIDE THE ARK. NIGHT.
Galvatron finally comes to and climbs out from under a pile of rocks. He activates his comms.
GALVATRON
Attention! Waspinator, Inferno!
EXT. - MOUNTAIN RANGE. NIGHT.
Waspinator's finished putting himself together; he puts his head on his shoulders and twists it, securing it.
GALVATRON (V. O.)
(through the radio)
We must finalize our victory. Converge on my position.
EXT. - MOUNTAIN CAVE. NIGHT.
Inferno - Robot Form - staggers out of the cave. His entire body's sparking and leaking mech fluid, and he's barely able to stand.
INFERNO
Coming, My Queen.
He activates his propeller-butt and takes to the air.
Cut to:
INT. - ARK - CONTROL ROOM. NIGHT.
A readout of Optimus Prime appears on a nearby computer screen. Blackarachnia and Rhinox are studying it closely.
They're interrupted by Optimus Primal.
OPTIMUS PRIMAL
(painful groans)
RHINOX
We've gotta hurry!
BLACKARACHNIA
This technology is four million years old. It takes time.
RATTRAP
Time you don't have, sister.
Silverbolt puts himself between Rattrap and Blackarachnia.
SILVERBOLT
If you harm her, you'll have to deal with me, rodent.
RATTRAP
Don't tempt me, Flying Fido.
GRIMLOCK
Stop fighting! We have bigger problems.
He points over to Optimus, who's writing in pain on the floor.
VICTORIA
Optimus? What's happening to you?
On: Optimus.
His body's starting to change. The outer armor is beginning to crack. A wing sprouts from his shoulder. His body starts to grow larger as another wing appears, and his hands SHATTER, revealing larger yellow hands.
The change continues, and we:
Fade out.
End Act Two.
ACT THREE
Fade in.
INT. - ARK - CONTROL ROOM. NIGHT.
Rhinox flips a red switch on a control console.
RHINOX
Switching regeneration to maximum.
OVER TO - RATTRAP AND STINKBOMB.
They're watching Optimus Prime as the tube starts to glow; the repair sequence has started.
RATTRAP
I tell ya, you gotta love these old machines. Crude, but at least the parts are cheap.
ANOTHER ANGLE.
Victoria and Cheetor walk over to Optimus - we can't quite see him, he's in shadow.
VICTORIA
Um, you guys? Look at Optimus.
The Maximals join them, and Optimus finally steps out of the shadows. His new body - large, almost as large as Grimlock, with large wings on the shoulders and what looks like a cockpit on his chest - is still smoking. In the cockpit is Optimus Prime's Spark.
CHEETOR
Optimus? Are you okay, Big Bot? How do you feel?
OPTIMUS PRIMAL
In a word - prime.
GALVATRON (O. S.)
But not for long!
ANOTHER ANGLE.
Galvatron - Robot Form - is standing at the doorway; he's joined by Inferno - also in his Robot Form, and still barely managing to stay on his feet thanks to the damage.
GALVATRON
This has been a temporary delay. Inferno, open fire!
Inferno FIRES at the Maximals. Optimus quickly puts himself in front of them and takes the blast.
OVER TO - BLACKARACHNIA.
She's hanging back, watching all of this happen.
BLACKARACHNIA
Time for me to take my leave.
She TRANSFORMS into her Beast Form and scuttles away.
Back on: Optimus.
A large, double-barreled gun comes out of his chest and aims at Galvatron.
OPTIMUS PRIMAL
Not here, Galvatron. You hear me; take it outside!
GALVATRON
Well, well, well, I see we have a new and improved Optimal Optimus Primal to contend with, yess. And carrying Prime's Spark as well.
OPTIMUS PRIMAL
I said, OUTSIDE!
GALVATRON
You wouldn't dare fire in here! You might upset history even more than you already have.
OPTIMUS PRIMAL
We've got a hundred and twenty years to clean you off the walls, Galvatron. I'm willing to risk it.
INFERNO
I will protect you, Royalty.
GALVATRON
No. Not this time, Inferno.
(to Optimus)
This is not the end, Optimal Optimus Primal, noo. The universe cowered once at the name of Galvatron, and it shall do so once more!
OPTIMUS PRIMAL
Freedom is the right of all sentient beings, Galvatron.
GALVATRON
Then they'd best stay out of my way!
VICTORIA
Forget it, Optimus. You're better off just shooting him.
OPTIMUS PRIMAL
I'm trying not to resort to that.
RATTRAP
Well, if you won't, I will.
He takes out his blaster.
OPTIMUS PRIMAL
No!
He bats Rattrap aside. Rattrap accidentally fires a shot at the roof.
GALVATRON
Waspinator, cover fire!
EXT. - TUNNEL - OUTSIDE THE ARK.
Waspinator - Robot Form - FIRES at the Ark. His two stinger missiles hit the ship's hull.
INT. - ARK - CONTROL ROOM.
The entire place is rocked from the explosion.
GALVATRON
This place remains a target, Optimus. I will be back. Beast Form!
Galvatron - TRANSFORMATION SEQUENCE.
He TRANSFORMS into his Beast Form, and he and Inferno fly away.
OPTIMUS PRIMAL
Our base! It's unguarded! We can't let Galvatron get there first!
RHINOX
You guys go. I can handle things here.
SILVERBOLT
Blackarachnia? Blackarachnia, where are you?
RATTRAP
Already gone, Bonehead. What's say we do the same and protect our home!
Back on: Optimus Primal.
He TRANSFORMS into a new Vehicle Form - a large jet.
Cut to:
EXT. - TUNNEL - OUTSIDE THE ARK. NIGHT.
Galvatron and Inferno are joined by Waspinator; the three of them are flying away from the Ark.
GALVATRON
Congratulations, Maximals. You shall have the honor of becoming the first Cybertronian fossils.
ANOTHER ANGLE.
Optimus - Jet Form - rises up behind him; Cheetor, Rattrap, and Victoria are riding on his wings.
WASPINATOR
Uh oh.
GALVATRON
Make an entrance! Quickly!
He breathes a stream of fire at the wall, melting some of the rocks. After a few seconds, he's burned a hole large enough for the three Predacons to fit through.
GALVATRON
Go, go!
OPTIMUS PRIMAL
You're not getting away that easily, Galvatron!
Cut to:
EXT. - MOUNTAIN RANGE. NIGHT.
Galvatron, Inferno, and Waspinator are flying away from the tunnel. Galvatron spots something below.
GALVATRON
You!
ANOTHER ANGLE.
He flies down towards Blackarachnia - Robot Form - who's gotten her foot stuck between two rocks.
BLACKARACHNIA
What did you expect, you tin terrorist? That I would die for your insane ambition?
Before either of them can say anything else, the Maximals BURST through the rubble - Optimus is now in a new Vehicle Form, this one looking like an off road truck.
Back on: Galvatron.
He turns back to Blackarachnia. He lowers his face to her.
GALVATRON
No more betrayals, Blackarachnia.
He opens his mouth, and breathes a stream of fire on her, and a few seconds later, he flies away.
OVER TO - SILVERBOLT.
He TRANSFORMS into his Robot Form and spots Blackarachnia lying on the ground, her body now covered in severe burns.
SILVERBOLT
Blackarachnia?
GRIMLOCK
Me Grimlock see dragon! Dragon going to base!
OPTIMUS PRIMAL
Then there's no time to lose. Cheetor, you're with me.
Optimus Primal - TRANSFORMATION SEQUENCE.
He TRANSFORMS into his Jet Form and flies off.
CHEETOR
Looks like he's already gotten used to that new body.
RATTRAP
Considering that this is technically his third body, I'm not surprised. Now get moving, Cheetor!
Cut to:
INT. - ARK - CONTROL ROOM. NIGHT.
Rhinox flips another switch.
RHINOX
A few more moments should be enough. Now if only Optimus could bring that Spark back in one piece, everything will be fine.
Cut to:
EXT. - MOUNTAIN RANGE. NIGHT.
Silverbolt's cradling Blackarachnia in his arms.
SILVERBOLT
Blackarachnia. Dark poison of my heart. Abide with me yet awhile.
BLACKARACHNIA
(weakly)
You've certainly got a way with words, Rover.
She coughs up some mech fluid.
BLACKARACHNIA
You almost make me wish I were one of the good girls.
SILVERBOLT
You are. At the last moment you made a stand against the darkness. There is light within you yet.
BLACKARACHNIA
I was trying to save my own hide.
SILVERBOLT
And with it, the universe, my friends, and me. Understand this, Blackarachnia - like never before, my life - and my heart - are now yours.
BLACKARACHNIA
You're not just saying that, are you?
SILVERBOLT
I mean every word with all my Spark.
Blackarachnia's eyes start to spark.
SILVERBOLT
Blackarachnia, please, join me. In this last dark moment, say that you will return to the Maximals that made you.
BLACKARACHNIA
For you, Silverbolt, I join your side. But, as a Predacon - goodbye.
The lights in her eyes go out as her life fades away; Blackarachnia is dead.
SILVERBOLT
No. Blackarachnia, no.
RATTRAP
Yeesh. Where's my cyber violin.
Victoria backhands him.
VICTORIA
Rattrap, shut up. Gosh, you can be so insensitive sometimes.
Fade to:
EXT. - MOUNTAIN RANGE. NIGHT.
Optimus and Cheetor have caught up to the Predacons. Waspinator's the first to notice them. He looks back, then does a quick double-take.
WASPINATOR
Huh? Oh no.
Cheetor TRANSFORMS into his Robot Form and FIRES. The blast hits Waspinator, knocking him out of the air. Cheetor activates his jets and FLIES towards Inferno. He takes out his sword and stabs Inferno in the chest.
ANOTHER ANGLE.
Galvatron TRANSFORMS into his Robot Form. He takes aim at Optimus, but before he can fire, Optimus SLAMS into him, knocking him out of the sky.
OPTIMUS PRIMAL
It's over, Galvatron!
GALVATRON
I will not be denied!
Cut to:
EXT. - MAXIMAL BASE. NIGHT.
Rampage - Tank Mode - and Bonecrusher - Beast Form - are tethered to a series of cables, which in tun are attatched to the front of the Maximal base. They start pulling as hard as they can.
BONECRUSHER
If this base comes down before the sun comes up, then it'll be well worth the hernia.
RAMPAGE
Shut up and pull, you bothersome bovine.
The base starts to move as it's pulled out of its resting spot.
ANOTHER ANGLE.
Optimus - Jet Form - comes FLYING down towards them. He turns to the side as he flies; his wing SNAPS the cables. Bonecrusher and Rampage are sent hurtling forward.
BONECRUSHER
Yow!
RAMPAGE
Gah! Rampage, Terrorize!
BONECRUSHER
Bonecrusher, Terrorize!
Rampage, Bonecrusher - TRANSFORMATION SEQUENCES.
They both TRANSFORM into their Robot Forms as Optimus lands and transforms into his own Robot Form.
RAMPAGE
Now, that's an impressive sight.
BONECRUSHER
Looks like ol' Optimus has got himself some new duds. Again.
Rampage takes out his missile launcher. Before he can fire, Optimus PUNCHES him, knocking him to the ground.
BONECRUSHER
I got it!
He FIRES a missile at Optimus. Optimus quickly turns to the side to deflect the missile away from Prime's Spark. The missile bounces off of Optimus's arm, knocking him off balance -
And sending the missile flying towards the Maximal base! The missile EXPLODES against the side of the base, blowing a massive hole thorugh its hull. The front of the base can't take the weight, and it breaks off, falling into the river below.
OPTIMUS PRIMAL
No!
OVER TO - CHEETOR, BEAST FORM.
He stops flying as he watches the rest of the Maximal base fall into the water.
CHEETOR
(gasps)
No.
Back on: Rampage and Bonecrusher.
They're celebrating.
RAMPAGE
We did it.
BONECRUSHER
And a mighty fine job we did, too. All right, Crabby, let's get the heck outta here. And if anyone asks, we was out smashing mail boxes.
He returns to his Beast Form and thunders away, Rampage following a second later in his Tank Mode.
ANOTHER ANGLE.
Optimus and Cheetor - who's now in his Robot Form - look down at what's left of the Maximal base from the top of a nearby cliff.
CHEETOR
Talk about your ice cold slag. What do we do now, Optimus?
OPTIMUS PRIMAL
For the moment, regroup. And return a precious cargo.
Fade to:
INT. - ARK - CONTROL ROOM. NIGHT.
The tube retracts from Optimus Prime's head; he's fully repaired. Optimus Primal opens his chest cockpit. Prime's Spark floats out and hovers above him.
ANOTHER ANGLE.
Victoria hands him the Matrix of Leadership.
VICTORIA
I think you're gonna need this.
OPTIMUS PRIMAL
Thank you, little one.
He closes the Matrix around Prime's Spark, then puts it back into Prime's chest. The lights in Prime's eyes come on for a brief moment, allowing Optimus Primal and Optimus Prime to meet each other for the first time. Optimus Primal is staring into Optimus Prime's eyes with great wonder.
The lights in Prime's eyes die down again.
Cut to:
EXT. - CITY STREET - VICTORIA'S WORLD. NIGHT.
A herd of mammoths is rampaging down the street; the mammoths suddenly stop as they start to fade away.
ANOTHER ANGLE.
Several police officers are having a shootout with a group of Wild West cowboys. The cowboys start to fade away.
Cut to:
EXT. - MOUNTAIN RANGE - BEAST WARS WORLD. NIGHT.
A mass of clouds, like a hurricane, is above the landscape. It starts to die down, and after a few seconds, all the clouds are gone.
Quick cut to:
INT. - ARK - CONTROL ROOM. NIGHT.
Optimus Prime's chest closes.
RHINOX
(relieved sigh)
He's back in normal stasis. And reality has been restored.
RATTRAP
Yeah, and all we gotta do is keep it that way for the next twelve decades. No problem, right?
OPTIMUS PRIMAL
Rattrap's got a point. The first thing we have to do, Maximals, is fortify this place. Galvatron won't leave the Ark alone for long. So start gathering up all the salvage you can find.
Fade to:
EXT. - TUNNEL - OUTSIDE THE ARK. MORNING.
Optimus presses a button on a control console, lighting up what looks like the old control room, nestled onto a cliff overlooking the Ark. Computer screens flicker to life.
OPTIMUS PRIMAL
And move over, Autobots, because the Maximals are moving in.
A smile spreads across his face, and we:
Fade out.
End Act Three.
END SEASON TWO.
