Opening Scene: Robotropolis, Night Time & Raining CHUCK: Come on, Dulcy. DULCY: Goin' down, Sally! SALLY: Whoa! CHUCK: Come on...straighten it out. DULCY: Hold on, Sally! SALLY: Don't worry. DULCY & SALLY: Whoa! DULCY: Sorry. *rain stops* DULCY: (to herself) Not too shabby. DULCY: You okay, Sally? Sally? SALLY: *groans* If you don't count my stomach. CHUCK: Are you girls all right? DULCY: We're fine, Uncle Chuck. CHUCK: Thanks for getting here so fast. SALLY: What's wrong? CHUCK: It's all on here. Chuck gives a disk to Sally. SNIVELY (via recording): We're very close to finding the first Drood Henge scroll, Sir. Yes, Sir. DULCY: Who's he talking to? CHUCK: Robotnik. I could only record one side of the conversation. SNIVELY: Yes, Sir. We will continue the search. SALLY: Drood Henge. There's something familiar about that name. CHUCK: It was a royal family secret. SALLY: R-Really? But I was never told. CHUCK: You were only five when Robotnik took over. It concerns the legendary Deep Power Stones, capable of incredible power or incredible destruction. SALLY: Nicole, access information on Drood Henge. NICOLE: Access denied, Sally. Time encoded lockout. CHUCK: Your father inserted many programs into Nicole. Some are time-locked until you come of age. SALLY: But that's 2 years from now. In the meantime, we've gotta find this "Drood Henge". CHUCK: Before Robotnik does. The idea of that fiend having such awesome power... (Scene Change: Robotropolis, Robotnik's Command Center) ROBOTNIK: *laughs* Hmm... ROBOTNIK: Excellent, Snively. Keep searching. I've nearly translated their language. SNIVELY: Yes, Sir. ROBOTNIK: Input this data. (Scene Change: Hot Springs.) SONIC: Well, Big Guy, is this cool or is this cool? TAILS: Way, way past, Sonic. SONIC: You and me Tails. This is our secret place. TAILS: Cool! SONIC: But ya gotta be careful around here. *picks up a rock* SONIC: Check this. * Sonic tosses the rock, which hits with a "boom" & a green cloud* TAILS: Whoa. That's awesome. * large airship flies over them* TAILS: *gasps* Wow! That thing's huge. SONIC: One of Robuttnik's freighters. Let's check it out. (Scene Change: Tails & Sonic are on a cliff, watching Robotnik's bots.) TAILS: What is it, Sonic? SONIC: They're lookin' for somethin'. TAILS: Sonic! SONIC: Man, I hate those orb-heads. TAILS: No problem-o. I gotta plan. SONIC: Yo, Tails! What plan? TAILS: Bullseye! SONIC: That was cool, Big Guy. But next time you have a plan, check with me first. Teamwork is a big part of being a Freedom Fighter. TAILS: Okay, Sonic. Uh oh! SONIC: Still ticking. TAILS: Hmm. Sal said it's...it's the red one. SONIC: Way to go, Tails. (Scene Change: Robotnik's Dig Site, Control Center) SNIVELY: Orb surveillance malfunction, sector 4. SWATbot patrol, check and report. SWATBOT: Affirmative. On route. (Scene Change: Back to Sonic & Tails) SONIC: Looks like they found something. I'm goin' in for a close-up. Wait here. TAILS: Sonic, I wanna go too. SONIC: Sorry, Big Guy. Solo time. TAILS: Why can't I go? SONIC: Too dangerous down there. Hey, Freedom Fighters always follow orders right? TAILS: Right. SONIC: Cool. Outta here! SONIC: Hmm. Wonder what's in that box.TAILS: *gasps* Sonic! Oh, no... TAILS: Sonic, look out! TAILS: *is grabbed* Sonic! SONIC: Tails! TAILS: Sonic! Help! [End of Act 1] (Act 2 Opening Scene: Robotnik's Dig Site) * Tails sees a SWATbot carrying a strange box as he is hauled away* * Sonic is following the 'bot that has Tails & runs into SWATbots* SONIC: Whoa! Guys, we gotta stop meetin' like this. SWATBOT: Hedgehog, priority one. SWATBOT #2: Surrender, hedgehog. SONIC: You talkin' to me? SWATBOT #2: Surrender. SONIC: Nah! This hedgehog never gives up. Gettin' late. Outta here! (Scene Change: Robotnik's Dig Site, Control Center) SWATBOT: Intruder captured, Sir. SNIVELY: Not now. I have a bigger game in mind. TAILS: Sonic's gonna get you, Slop-ly SNIVELY: Quiet, you little twerp. (Scene Shift: Back to Sonic) SONIC: *laughs* Yes! Am I cool, or am I cool? SONIC: Whoa! *back-flips over the SWATbots* Ciao, 'bot-heads! SONIC: Cool. *uses airjets in his sneakers* SNIVELY: Where -is- that rotten hedgehog? What was that? SONIC: Que pasa, Snortly? SONIC: That means "What's up?" SNIVELY: Take the hedgehog! * Sonic jumps down & grabs Snively* SNIVELY: Hold your fire, hold your fire! SONIC: Good boy, Snobbly. *pats him on the head* SONIC: How 'bout a tour? SNIVELY: Tour? SONIC: Yeah. Let's start with the ol' power station. Now, tell Chrome-dome to release Tails. SNIVELY: Release the prisoner. SONIC: You okay, little buddy? TAILS: No problem. SONIC: Tell them all to return to stations. SNIVELY: Return to stations! SONIC: The hedgehog is way, way past cool. SNIVELY: The hedgehog is way, wa...huh? Hey. SONIC: Gotcha, Snobbly.TAILS: Cool. (Scene Change: Sally is flying on Dulcy's back) DULCY: Sally, we're running out of trees. SALLY: I don't understand. Sonic -always- does his training missions in the Great Forest. DULCY: Well, we've covered the whole enchilada. What now? SALLY: *sighs* Let's keep searching. (Scene Change: Robotnik's Dig Site, Power Station) SONIC: Hey, Slime-ly! How do we shut down the power station? SNIVELY: I'm afraid it's rather complicated. SONIC: -Un-complicate it. TAILS: I can do it, Sonic. Sally's been teaching me. SONIC: You sure, fella? TAILS: Yeah. SNIVELY: The little twerp will never figure it out. SONIC: Don't bet on it, Snobbly. TAILS: It's a grid inter-lock... SNIVELY: (heard in the distance) Don't touch it. TAILS: No problem-o. Got it! SONIC: Yo! the ol' lights are still on! TAILS: Give it a Sonic second. SONIC: Mondo cool, Big Guy. It's rip 'n' roar time. * Sonic speeds away with a screaming Snively* SONIC: Enjoyed the quality time, Slime-ly. TAILS: *laughs* SONIC: Oh, and give our worst to the big, round guy. Ciao! SNIVELY: Oh, "the big, round guy" won't like this at all. Oh, I hate my life. (Scene Change: Robotropolis, Robotnik's Command Center) SNIVELY (via hologram): Sir? ROBOTNIK: I've translated the ancient language, Snively. What is going on here? SNIVELY: The, um...the hedgehog was here, Sir. ROBOTNIK: The hedgehog? When!? SNIVELY: Last night, Sir. ROBOTNIK: And...you're only telling me -now-? SNIVELY: He destroyed the power station, Sir; it just came back online. But I found the second scroll! ROBOTNIK: That was fortunate timing, Snively. Transmitting translation key. I'm leaving immediately to personally supervise the dig. Have everything ready! (Scene Change: Sally is -still- flying on Dulcy's back) * Dulcy is snoring* SALLY: Dulcy! DULCY: *snorts* What? (half-asleep) Don't worry, ma, I cleaned the cave.SALLY: It's Sonic. DULCY: Sonic? Where? SALLY: Three o'clock, westbound. He's headed home. DULCY: Music to my ears. Going down! (Scene Change: Robotnik's Dig Site) * Robotnik's Hoverunit lands. Robotnik exits & is greeted by Snively.* SNIVELY: Sir! Sir! I used your translation to read the scrolls... ROBOTNIK: And? SNIVELY: I've located the chamber. ROBOTNIK: Hmm. It's about time. SNIVELY: (mumbling) You rotten bag of slime. ROBOTNIK: Did you say something, Snively? SNIVELY: I said "now is the time", Sir. (Scene Change: Knothole) DULCY: Ouch! Oh. I could sure use a chin pad. SALLY: Sonic, I've got... SONIC: Sally, I've got... SALLY: What? SONIC: You first. SALLY: I have bad news SONIC: Mine's worse. (Scene Shift: Inside Sally's Hut) SALLY: ...and Nicole has the information, but won't release it until I come of age. SONIC: Say what? SALLY: Until I'm 18. SONIC: Yo, Nicole. NICOLE: Sonic, my main hedgehog. What up? SALLY: I hate when she talks like that. SONIC: Ro-butt-nik's diggin' for the ol' D. P. stones. So, what happens when he finds them? NICOLE: They'll power the Doomsday Project and all life could end, as we know it. SONIC: Which means Sal would never come of age. NICOLE: You got it. SONIC: Then what's the point? NICOLE: Hmm. Evaluating. Further delay does not compute. SONIC: Any year now, Nicole... NICOLE: Access granted. Generating hologram. SALLY: Very good, Sonic. SONIC: That's all I get, is a "very good"? SALLY: Well how about "stupendous!" SONIC: I can live with that. KING'S VOICE (via recording): Sally, these are the Deep Power Stones. SALLY: Daddy?KING'S VOICE: Joined together this way, they're a source of limitless energy. Reverse them, and within 30 seconds they become a source of destruction. The Deep Power Stones are hidden at Drood Henge. This book is in the secrets vaults of the Royal Library; it will give you the location. There you will find these three scrolls. They disclose the location of the Deep Power Stones. Nicole knows the language. TAILS: Sonic, I saw that one! SALLY: You did? Where? TAILS: We saw Robotnik find it at some dig site in the Great Unknown. SALLY: You took Tails near Robotnik? SONIC: Well, I... SALLY: Never mind. I don't wanna know. Nicole, apply translation to the box with the sun symbol. NICOLE: Box contains scroll revealing location of first Deep Power Stone. SALLY: Then Robotnik has the first stone! If he gets both, he'll have the power for the Doomsday Project! TAILS: Is...is that bad? SONIC: Afraid so, Big Guy. If he gets both stones, we're history. [End of Act 2] (Act 3 Opening Scene: Robotnik's Dig Site) SNIVELY: This is very exciting, Sir. ROBOTNIK: Yes, well, we'll see, Snively. We'll see. Open it! * bots remove a stone lid* ROBOTNIK: Ahh...that's it! Step aside there! Oh my. Yes. (Scene Change: Knothole) TAILS: (from a distance) Sonic! Sonic, wait up! * Tails lands next to Sonic & gives him a box* TAILS: Rotor said to be careful; the paint's not quite dry. SONIC: No prob. SALLY: Sorry, Tails. This mission is too dangerous. TAILS: Huh? But I thought... SONIC: -I- told him he could go, Sal. SALLY: Sonic, he's ten years old. SONIC: Hey, he's passed three tough Freedom Fighter tests. I was doing solo missions when I was ten. SALLY: Uh-huh. Right. Without permission. SONIC: He can come with me. I'll be responsible. SALLY: *laughs* That'll be the day. SONIC: Excuse me? SALLY: Fine! -You- be responsible. SONIC & TAILS: Way cool! DULCY: Oh, look; he's growing up. SALLY: (to Dulcy) Yes. I guess he is. SALLY: (to Tails) Just be careful, honey, and do what Sonic says. Okay? TAILS: Okay, Aunt Sally. Promise.SONIC: Let's kick it. SALLY: Good...luck! SALLY: Alright, Dulcy. Let's go. DULCY: *sniffles* SALLY: Uh, Dulcy? DULCY: This is so touching. *cries* SALLY: *sighs* Oh boy... (Scene Change: Robotnik's Dig Site) ROBOTNIK: Release the surveillance Orbs. You're out there somewhere, hedgehog. I can feel you. TAILS: Come on. Come on. A little closer. Come on. That's cool. * Tails runs with the box & an Orb follows him* ROBOTNIK: All units, surround Sector 5. Wait for my command. ROBOTNIK: (to himself) Run little Freedom Fighter; lead me to the hedgehog. DULCY: Oh...good job, Tails. * Dulcy uses a mirror to signal Sally.* SALLY: He's on his way. SONIC: Outta here! TAILS (loudly): Sally found it, Sonic! SONIC: Way past! ROBOTNIK: What?! SONIC: I knew she would, Big Guy! NICOLE: Calculating directions, Sonic. Take 4 steps forward. SONIC: 1...2...3...4. This is it. ROBOTNIK: All units...stand by. SONIC: Got it! TAILS: Great! I'll go tell Sally. ROBOTNIK: All units! The hedgehog has the stone! Get it! SONIC: Buttnik's loosin' his touch. They should have been here by now. * bots appear and shoot at Sonic* SONIC: Ahh. That's more like it! Hedgehog juicin' on the fast track! SALLY: Right on schedule. Let's find Dulcy. SONIC: *shouts* SWATBOT: Priority hedgehog, surrender! SONIC: I surrender, I-I surrender. * Sonic pulls out a Power Ring* SONIC: Just kidding! Later! ROBOTNIK: Get him. Get him! ROBOTNIK: (to his ship's Brain Bot): Launch the ship! Heat sensors. Scan hedgehog's projected path. BRAIN BOT: Scanning... SONIC: Man, the stupid SWATbots lost me! Come on. Come on... *waits impatiently* BRAIN BOT: Heat source located. Profile matches hedgehog. Inputting coordinates. ROBOTNIK: Launch Stealth Bots! All units, converge on broadcast coordinates. Hold your fire! I want that stone!SONIC: Whoa! Man, they're cuttin' it pretty close. That's it. Getting warmer. * Stealth Bots fly over & beyond Sonic* SONIC: Cold again. Come on Ro-butt-nik; you're slipping, man. * SWATbots appear* SONIC: Getting hotter. Now you're cooking! * Sonic runs and then waits for until Robotnik's ship to land in front of him* SONIC: Hey! * the various bots catch up* SONIC: Ho-hum. Surrounded again. Some things never change. SONIC: (in a funny voice) Here comes the dramatic entrance. ROBOTNIK: You're surrounded, hedgehog. I suggest you give me the stone. SONIC: (aside) Now for the dramatic reply... SONIC: No way, Robuttnik! If I can't have it... ROBOTNIK: No, no, no, hedgehog. Don't do it! Don't do it! SONIC: ...no one can. * Sonic tosses the fake Power Stone into a lava pool. Stone goes "boom".* ROBOTNIK: NO! SALLY: It's Sonic! ROBOTNIK: No matter, hedgehog. I may not have the Power Stone, but I -do- have you. SONIC: I don't think so big, round guy. *whistles* Taxi! SALLY: Crack the whip, Dulcy! DULCY: Cracking! TAILS: Cool! ROBOTNIK: What is...?! SONIC: Ciao, baby! * Robotnik growls & Sonic laughs as the Freedom Fighters fly away on Dulcy* (Scene Change: Near the Dig Site) SONIC: Got it! * Dulcy, Tails & Sally dance & cheer* TAILS: Yeah, Sonic! We did it! SONIC: Thank you. * Sally opens the box & gets the scroll* SALLY: Nicole, scanning mode please. NICOLE: Scanning. Displaying location, Sally. SALLY: *laughs* I don't believe it! SONIC: What? SALLY: It's right here. SONIC: Where? SALLY: Here! *points* SONIC: Cool. Stand back, guys! * Sonic uses a Sonic Spin to dig where Sally had pointed* SONIC: Bingo, ringo! * Everybody cheers* SALLY: All this power... We should destroy it.SONIC: I dunno, Sal; it might come in handy. We're going up against the Doomsday Project. SALLY: You're right. I have to hand it to you Sonic; that fake stone plan was brilliant. SONIC: Brilliant? Come on, it was mondo stupendo. SALLY: *laughs* You may be "mondo stupendo", but you are certainly not humble. SONIC: Moi? Not humble? I don't think so! After all, it wasn't -my- plan. SALLY: What? But I thought that... SONIC: Ladies and...ladies...meet the Plan-meister, the way, way cool Big Guy! *Tails laughs* SALLY: Tails, you're amazing. DULCY: Oh. *sobs* Oh, this is so touching. SALLY: Three cheers for our newest Freedom Fighter! SONIC: Hip, hip... SALLY, SONIC & DULCY: Hooray! SONIC: Hip, hip... SALLY, SONIC & DULCY: Hooray! SONIC: Hip, hip... SALLY, SONIC, TAILS & DULCY: Hooray! [End of Act 3] [End of Transcript]
