Announcer: PREVIOUSLY ON LOONATICS UNLEASHED...
Man, over P.A.: ATTENTION!
TODAY WE'RE TRANSPORTING 4 OF THE MOST DANGEROUS CRIMINALS
TO A NEW MAXIMUM-SECURITY FACILITY.
GREETINGS, PRISONERS.
I WILL BE YOUR JAILER TODAY,
SO YOU'RE ALL WASTING YOUR TIME
IF YOU'RE HOPING TO BUST OUT.
ESCAPE IS IMPOSSIBLE.
HEY, YOU CAN'T ESCAPE. I'M GUARDING YOU!
WHERE ARE WE?
HOW DID WE GET OUT HERE?
Voice: I BROUGHT YOU HERE.
I AM OPTIMATUS.
YOU WANNA TAKE DOWN THE LOONATICS?
WHY SHOULD WE HELP YOU?
DO AS I ASK AND YOU SHALL FOREVER RULE ACMETROPOLIS
AND ALL ITS RESOURCES.
MASTER VILLAINS, ONE; SUPERHEROES, ZERO.
SO, NOW THAT I STOLE DUCK'S POWERS,
I'M GONNA QUACK MYSELF INSIDE THERE
AND STEAL YOURS, TOO.
I KNOW THE DEACTIVATION CODE.
YOU LET THEM ESCAPE?!
NOBODY GET COMFY. WE GOT COMPANY.
CARE FOR ANOTHER ROUND, LOONATICS?
I ASKED YOU TO DO ONE SIMPLE THING:
CATCH THE LOONATICS.
BUT YOU CAN'T EVEN DO THAT.
COME BACK HERE, SUCTION BOY!
YOU'VE GOT A LITTLE SOMETHING
CALLED MY POWERS TO RETURN!
WHO WAS THAT?
[GIBBERISH]
LOONATICS, THERE'S SOMETHING I MUST TELL YOU.
IT'S ZADAVIA!
IN THE FLESH!
THAT WAS MY BROTHER.
OH, BROTHER!
MY BROTHER WILL EXTERMINATE ANYONE CLOSE TO ME.
YOUR BROTHER, EH?
I THOUGHT SOMETHING ABOUT THAT BIG GUY
LOOKED FAMILIAR.
I WILL EXPLAIN EVERYTHING BACK AT HEADQUARTERS.
IF WE DO NOT ACT SOON,
ACMETROPOLIS WILL BE DESTROYED.
Woman: 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.
SO, CHIEF, YOU GONNA SPILL THE BEANS,
OR DO WE WAIT FOR DUCK TO END UP
AS YOUR BROTHER'S MAIN COURSE?
THIS IS MY HOME...
THE PLANET FRELENG.
IT IS OVER 600 PARSECS FROM YOUR OWN GALAXY.
I WAS BORN INTO THE ROYAL FAMILY.
MY BROTHER AND I WERE GROOMED TO RULE FRELENG TOGETHER,
BUT IT WAS NOT TO BE.
MY FELLOW FRELENGIANS,
NOW THAT WE CONTROL THE POWER
OF INTERDIMENSIONAL TRANSPORT,
WE MUST USE THIS POWER TO EXPLORE STRANGE NEW WORLDS,
TO SEEK OUT NEW LIFE AND NEW CIVILIZATIONS,
AND THEN CONQUER THEM ALL.
[CROWD GASPS, MURMURS]
NO! MY BROTHER CALLS FOR A PERPETUAL WAR.
ONE THAT WILL BRING SHAME TO OUR PEOPLE
AND RUIN TO OUR PLANET.
THE COUNCIL AGREES WITH ZADAVIA.
OPTIMATUS, WE SHALL HEAR
NO MORE TALK OF CONQUEST.
YES, THE TIME FOR TALK IS OVER.
Zadavia: OPTIMATUS WOULD NOT LET THE RULE OF LAW
STAND IN HIS WAY.
FIRST, HE KIDNAPPED THE HIGH COUNCIL.
THEN, FEELING I WOULD LEAD A REVOLT AGAINST HIM,
HE CAME AFTER ME.
ZADAVIA!
OPTIMATUS WOULD NOT REST UNTIL I WAS UNDER HIS CONTROL.
AS I WAS MAKING MY GETAWAY,
HE WAS ACCIDENTALLY CAUGHT
IN THE HEAT OF THE SHIP'S EXHAUST.
AAH!
I WAS TRULY SORRY,
BUT COULDN'T AFFORD TO TURN AROUND.
TOO MUCH WAS AT STAKE.
AAH!
I USED ONE OF OPTIMATUS' OWN WORM HOLE GENERATORS
TO ESCAPE TO ACMETROPOLIS.
I THOUGHT I LEFT NO TRACE FOR HIM TO FOLLOW.
I WAS WRONG.
SOMEHOW, MY BROTHER FOUND ME.
HE SENT A METEOR HURTLING AT ACMETROPOLIS.
HE DID NOT CARE WHO ELSE MIGHT SUFFER.
ELIMINATING ME WAS ALL THAT MATTERED TO HIM.
I WAS ABLE TO SLOW DOWN THE METEOR,
SAVING ACMETROPOLIS FROM DESTRUCTION.
STILL, THE IMPACT THREW YOUR WORLD OFF ITS AXIS
AND RELEASED A STRANGE RADIATION,
WHICH, OF COURSE, GAVE YOU YOUR POWERS.
SO, BASICALLY, BY COMING HERE
TO GET AWAY FROM YOUR BROTHER,
YOU'RE RESPONSIBLE FOR CREATING
THESE SUPERVILLAINS.
THERE WERE A NUMBER OF UNEXPECTED SIDE EFFECTS.
I HAD BEEN SCANNING YOUR SOLAR SYSTEM
FOR SIGNS OF OPTIMATUS,
THEN I FOUND THIS...
A SMALL PLANETOID APPROACHING THE ASTEROID BELT.
SO, BIG BROTHER'S ON THE ROCK, HUH?
YES, AND IT IS MOST LIKELY WHERE WE WILL FIND DUCK.
IF WE TAKE THE LUNAPORTER,
I'LL NEED TO INSTALL HYPERDRIVE BOOSTERS.
THAT'S ALL RIGHT, TECH.
WE'LL USE MY SHIP.
IT HAS WARP-LIKE SPEED CAPABILITY...
ABLE TO CROSS THE SOLAR SYSTEM
IN A MATTER OF MOMENTS.
Ace: HEY, YOU BEEN HOLDIN' OUT ON US.
NOW LET'S GO GET OUR DUCK.
UGH. WHA-HA-HA!
I'VE GOT TO STOP WATCHING
OLD SCI-FI MOVIES AT BEDTIME.
AW, POOR DUCKY.
HAVE A BAD DREAM?
WAIT, IT'S ALL COMING BACK TO ME.
THE PRISON TRAIN... AND YOU!
YOU TOOK MY POWERS!
UNH! UNH! UHH!
AHH-HA HA! UNH!
WHAT AN ANNOYING CREATURE.
ARE YOU GOING TO GET RID OF HIM NOW?
IN A PAINFUL WAY?
AND CAN WE WATCH?
GEE, THANKS A LOT, LOSERS.
YOU'RE LUCKY I DON'T ANNIHILATE ALL OF YOU
FOR YOUR INCOMPETENCE.
PERHAPS I SHOULD HAVE LEFT YOU TO ZADAVIA.
WHAT'S ZADAVIA GOT TO DO WITH THIS?
SHE IS MY SISTER.
SISTER? SHE'S YOUR SISTER?!
AND...AGAIN...
SINCE THESE SIMPLETONS CANNOT DO THE JOB,
I SHALL HAVE ONE OF MY OPTIFORCES
LOOK AFTER YOU INSTEAD.
FINE. HEY! HUH?
COME WITH ME OR BE ELIMINATED.
WHA-HA-HA!
Ace: HEY, HOW DO YOU STEER THIS THING?
THIS ONE CONTROLS YOUR SPEED,
AND THIS CONTROLS DIRECTION.
YOU KNOW, THESE BABIES COULD PUT
THE STEERING WHEEL OUT OF BUSINESS.
FASCINATING!
THIS IS THE MOST AMAZING CHIP DESIGN
I'VE EVER SEEN.
MY PLANET'S TECHNOLOGY IS BASED ON A UNIVERSAL CODE.
IT CAN BE USED TO RUN ANYTHING,
FROM A CHILD'S TOY TO A WARP ENGINE.
VERY INTERESTING.
HEY, GUYS,
WE'RE APPROACHING THE PLANETOID.
AND DAT'S NOT ALL.
GREETINGS, SISTER.
AS MUCH AS I'D LOVE TO CHAT,
I THINK YOU'D BEST SPEND THESE NEXT FEW MOMENTS
PREPARING FOR YOUR DEMISE.
[SINISTER LAUGHTER]
ACE, THEY'RE TRYING TO MANEUVER US INTO A CROSSFIRE!
Lexi: NICE MOVE, ACE!
THANKS, BUT WE GOT MORE ON OUR TAIL.
DEPLOYING DEFENSE WEAPONS.
RADAR'S PICKIN' UP 3 MORE BOGIES
CLOSIN' IN FAST.
WHOA! HEY!
WHAT'S HE DO, BUY THEM IN BULK?
HEY, WHERE'S ZADAVIA?
[SPEAKING GIBBERISH]
Ace: WHOA! CHECK THIS OUT, GUYS!
ZADAVIA'S MORE IMPRESSIVE THAN I EXPECTED.
NO MATTER.
ZADAVIA, THIS IS NOT THE TIME TO TAKE A STROLL!
I'LL HOLD THEM OFF.
YOU GET TO THE PLANETOID AND STOP OPTIMATUS.
THEY'VE GOT ZADAVIA.
TECH, SLAM, LEXI,
GET OUT THERE AND HELP HER!
I'LL COVER YOU.
BRING HER TO ME AT ONCE.
THESE CLOWNS WON'T QUIT!
I CAN'T GET A LOCK ON 'EM.
I GUESS I'M GONNA BE HIT!
HUH? HUH?
EJECT! EJECT NOW!
OH, NO.
THEY DIDN'T HAVE A CHANCE.
[GASPS]
HE WAS THE BEST LEADER.
THERE'S NOTHING LEFT.
WHO YOU CALLIN' NOTHIN'?
ACE!
I THOUGHT WE LOST YOU.
HEY, CAREFUL.
YOU'LL WRINKLE THE SPACE SUIT.
UH, YOU SCARED US!
WE THOUGHT...
[BABBLING GIBBERISH]
YEAH, BUT ACE HAD US EJECT AS WE WENT BEHIND THE ASTEROID
SO IT LOOKED LOOKED WE BOUGHT THE FARM.
I WONDER IF ZADAVIA HAD INSURANCE BECAUSE
REPLACING ONE OF THOSE SHIPS MUST'VE COST A FORTUNE,
UNLESS YOU THINK IT WAS A RENTAL.
OR MAYBE IF WE GET DOWN TO THE PLANET'S SURFACE
WE CAN TALK TO SOMEONE ABOUT A NEW ONE.
WASN'T IT COOL HOW WE COULD GUIDE IT BY MOVING OUR HANDS?
REV, NOT THE HOT ISSUE RIGHT NOW.
LET'S GO.
Danger: OH, PLEASE... OH, PLEASE, HELP ME!
WHAT IS THE CAUSE OF YOUR DISTRESS?
JUST LOOK AT ME.
I'M DEHYDRATED, SHRIVELED, WITHERED, WIZENED.
I NEED WATER!
YOU JUST HAS SOME 10 MINUTES AGO.
HEY, I'M A DUCK! WE'RE BIG ON WET!
PLEASE! OH, PLEASE, JUST A DRIP.
FINE.
HERE IS YOUR WATER.
YOU WOULDN'T HAPPEN TO HAVE A WEDGE OF LEMON, WOULD YOU?
HERE'S YOUR SLICE OF LEMON.
LEMON...LEMON... FORCE FIELD.
CAN I HAVE A CLEAN UP ON AISLE 6?
OPTIFORCES, BRING MY SISTER TO ME.
NOW YOU SHALL PAY FOR YOUR DEFIANCE,
AND YOU FOR INCOMPETENCE.
WATCH AND LEARN WHAT HAPPENS TO THOSE WHO DISAPPOINT ME.
AH, ZADAVIA,
ARE YOU COMFORTABLE?
NOT IN THE SLIGHTEST!
GOOD. I WOULDN'T WANT YOU TO NOD OFF
WHILE I DESTROY YOUR BELOVED ACMETROPOLIS.
HEY, WE MADE A DEAL!
YOU SAID WE COULD RULE ACMETROPOLIS!
AND YOU WILL...
FOR THE 5 MINUTES IT HAS LEFT.
NOT GONNA HAPPEN, OPTI-DUDE.
AAH! WHOA! UNH!
I'VE HAD ENOUGH, YOU ONE-EYED CYCLOPS!
[GRUNTING]
I'LL TAKE MY POWERS BACK, THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
AHH.
TIME TO GO HOME, ACMEWORMS!
GO AND RULE YOUR PITIFUL PLANET WHILE YOU STILL CAN!
WHOOOOOOA!
AAAAAAAAAH!
IF THOSE GUYS WERE ON HIS SIDE,
I WONDER WHAT HE DOES WITH HIS ENEMIES.
DUCK?
AAH! UNH!
WHAT IN THE WORLD'S GOIN' ON?
Optimatus: ALL HAIL YOUR NEW KINGS, ACMETROPOLIS!
[SINISTER LAUGHTER]
THIS WAY. I'M PICKING UP SOME MAGNETIC ACTIVITY.
I JUST HOPE IT LEADS US TO DUCK.
YOU AGAIN!
AW, DID YOU MISS ME?
AAH!
OPTIFORCES, GET IN HERE!
THAT PESKY DUCK HAS ESCAPED.
ALL FORCES SHOOT ON SIGHT.
I REPEAT, SHOOT ON SIGHT!
YEAH, WHOO-HOO...HA HA HA HA.
CAN'T HIT A MOVING TARGET?
HEY!
STEP RIGHT UP, HIT THE DUCK
AND WIN A PRIZE!
WHOOPSIE!
TRY AGAIN.
UNH!
HOW COULD ZADAVIA PUT UP WITH YOU?!
WELL, FOR ONE THING, I'M VERY GOOD AT PARTIES.
HEY, CYCLOPS! LA LA LA LA LA!
AAH! UNH!
ENGAGING EXTERMINATION PROCESS.
SLAM?!
BLEAAAAAAH!
YIKES!
Lexi: YOO-HOO, METALHEADS...
HOW 'BOUT A GAME OF WHACK-A-BOT?
YAH! UNH! HUH! AAAAAA!
HYAH!
HUH!
WITH MY SISTER AND HER LOONATICS GONE,
NO ONE CAN OPPOSE MY CONQUEST OF THE UNIVERSE.
THIS IS THE FINAL BLOW.
ALWAYS SO DRAMATIC, OPTIMATUS.
ZADAVIA!
HOW DID YOU GET FREE?
OH, THAT WAS ME.
I FOUND THE OFF SWITCH.
UNH!
IT'S ABOUT TIME!
ZADAVIA COULD USE SOME HELP, DUCK.
SHE'S GOT IT COVERED.
OPTIMATUS' WORM HOLE IS GONNA SEND ACMETROPOLIS
OFF TO SOME KIND OF INTERGALACTIC MEAT LOCKER!
UH, ANY IDEAS?
ACE, I MAY BE SMART,
BUT I KNOW DIDDLY ABOUT WORM HOLE TECHNOLOGY.
BOW TO ME! ADMIT TO MY WILL!
[STRUGGLING]
WAIT! THE FRELENGIAN UNIVERSAL CODE!
ZADAVIA SAID YOU COULD USE IT TO RUN EVERYTHING
FROM A CHILD'S TOY TO A WARP ENGINE...
TO A WORM HOLE! GET ON IT.
OH, SWELL!
I'LL BE RIGHT BACK.
[BOTH STRUGGLING]
TOO LATE, ZADAVIA!
'ROUND AND 'ROUND WE GO!
[GRUNTING, STRUGGLING]
YOU'RE FEELINGS FOR THESE CREATURES
HAVE MADE YOU WEAK, ZADAVIA!
FEEL THIS, BROTHER! UNH!
AAAAAAAH!
YOU GO, GIRLFRIEND!
[GRUNTING, GROWLING]
THIS BATTLE ENDS HERE, ZADAVIA!
NO! NO!
AAAAAAAAH!
TECH, TIME'S UP!
HERE GOES. ENGAGING.
ALL RIGHT! YES!
FANTASTIC! WAY TO GO!
TECH, YOU SHUT DOWN THE WORM HOLE.
WELL, NOT SHUT DOWN, EXACTLY.
MORE LIKE RELOCATED.
IF WE DON'T ESCAPE FROM THIS PLANETOID IMMEDIATELY,
THAT WORM HOLE IS GONNA SEND US OFF TO ANOTHER GALAXY
FAR, FAR AWAY.
EVERYONE, INTO MY BROTHER'S SHIP.
ZADAVIA... NOW YOU'LL PAY!
UNH!
AAH! UHH.
AAAAAAH!
AHH, THAT FELT GOOD.
NOW YOU'LL PAY, BROTHER.
NO. NO!
YOU CAN'T DO THIS TO ME!
THIS ISN'T OVER! I'LL BE BACK!
[SCREAMING]
THANK YOU, LOONATICS. YOU'VE SAVED ME...
AND THE GALAXY.
YOU ARE ALL HEROES. MY HEROES.
JUST FOR THE RECORD,
SHE'S TALKING ABOUT ME. HEY!
LIKE YOU, TOO, ME DO.
WHAT DO YOU THINK HAPPENED TO OPTAMATATO?
Zadavia: THE WORM HOLE WILL RE-OPEN IN SOME COLD,
REMOTE PART OF THE UNIVERSE.
I DOUBT WE'LL BE BOTHERED BY HIM FOR A LONG TIME.
[SHIVERING]
OW.
OH, BE QUIET!
THIS IS NOT THE END, ZADAVIA.
I SHALL SEEK VENGEANCE AGAINST YOU
AND YOUR ACCURSED LOONATICS!
THE...THE WORM HOLE'S GONE.
WE'RE SAVED!
WHAT ABOUT THE LOONATICS?
MY GUESS IS THEY PERISHED IN SOME STUPIDLY NOBLE WAY
SO THAT ACMETROPOLIS COULD SURVIVE.
LOSERS!
WAIT. DO YOU KNOW WHAT THIS MEANS?
THERE'S NO ONE LEFT WHO CAN STOP US
FROM TAKING OVER THE WORLD!
Danger: GREETINGS, LOSERS.
WHAT UP, DOC?
All: THE LOONATICS!
LET'S GET 'EM! HA!
