To Catch a Queen/Transcript

Sonic Underground Script Episode 4 To Catch a Queen

Aleena: Queen Aleena here. Argus, a trusted captain of my personal

guard, was on his way to a secret rendezvous, when he was

spotted by Robotnik's relentless bounty-hunters, Sleet and

Dingo, whose goal, as ever, is to capture the Queen.

Sleet: Attention SWATBot units! I need a top-priority intercept on Robotnik

Road, sector 5!

Manic: Must be some big dealings for a top-priority intercept!

Sonia: Right now, finding a gift for my dear Bartleby is MY top priority!

Sleet: Our target is a captain in the Queen's own guard! He may have

information enabling us to capture Aleena herself!

Manic: Sleet's trying to capture Ma?

Sonic: No way, Sleet-meat!

Sonia: Sonic, stop this van IMMEDIATELY!

Sonic: Oh, but what about Bartleby's gift?

Sonia: Bartleby can wait - but Mother can't! What's keeping us, slo-mo?

Manic: We're waiting!

Sonic: Nice try kids - but that's MY line!

Argus: Argh!

Dingo: Sleet! He's getting away!

Sleet: Oh no he's not... [morphs Dingo into a baby and throws him out]

Sleet: Help! Please! Somebody catch my baby!

Argus: Don't worry little fella - I got you.

[morph]

Dingo: Ooh, goo gi go ga gil goo go da daaa! How's that?

Sleet: Cuff him, Dingo! The old flying baby trick works every time!

Sonia: Sonic, check out that hovercraft for clues.

Sonic: Already did!

Sonia: Oh right (!) And I suppose you zipped over there faster than the speed

of light and... [jaw drops]

Sonic: Got his car keys, dog tags... hmm... Argus - captain of Queen Aleena's

personal guard?

Manic: Excellent! A guy like that is bound to know where we can find Ma!

Sonic: And one ancient photograph of...

Sonia: Ahhhh, just look at me! Wasn't I cute?

Manic: Like, we all were. I don't really remember her from back then, but

that must be Ma!

Dingo: Aw, come on Sleet, why can't I question Argus at the robo-centre

with you?

Sleet: Because I need a fly on the wall to spy on the hedgehogs, in case

they come backlooking for clues! [morphs Dingo into a fly] Capish?

Dingo: What I capish is, you want all the credit for catching Argus!

Sleet: I'll be back later, partner!

Sleet: If you know where to find Queen Aleena, tell kind, sweet Dr. Robotnik,

and he will give you rank, privilidge and power!

Argus: Forget it! I'll never rat on the Queen!

Robotnik: In that case kiss rank and privilidge goodbye, and say hello to

power... the power of my robotosizer, to be more precise! Hahahaha!

Sonic: We were fast, but not fast enough. Argus is gone! And now we'll never

find Mom...

Manic: Wait just a minute - don't high-level bots get initiated at a special

shin-dig at Botworks Hall?

Sonia: Right! And you don't get much higher than Captain to the Queen!

Sonic: Only this time, we're going to un-initiate Argus-bot! Hang on Mom,

we'll find you yet!

Posh lady: I'm so excited. This is my first Robot Induction Ceremony.

Sonia: Let's see, put the main console over there... no I think over

there would be good... although actually, it's better off right where

it started.

Sonic: In that case, I'd say it's best if you do it yourself!

Sonia: [lifts console] All you have to do is ask!

Manic: Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh I could use one of these! Ooh-ooh and this one is

tr‚s rash!

Sonic: Yo Manic, let's get clear on the concept. We're here impersonating

sound-bots and risking our lives to rescue Argus! NOT to re-equip our

studio!

Manic: I know, I know, we're rebels, not crooks, sorry dude I got carried

away!

Robotnik: Is everyone having a real good time? [silence] Good, because that

would be against the law! Now, let's welcome Argus-bot, formerly of

the Queen's own guard, captured by Special Agent Sleet!

[a fly lands on Sleet's nose]

Sleet: Dingo, did I forget you? Get off me you idiot!

[Dingo turns ba

ck while still on Sleet's nose, and crushes him!]

Dingo: Sorry...

Robotnik: Welcome, Argus-bot! Your orders are: Stamp out freedom! Squash fun!

and Arrest enemies of the state!

Sonic: That's my cue! I'll take that Buttnik old boy!

Argus-bot: ARREST ALL ENEMIES OF THE STATE!

Robotnik: You heard him fools - arrest these hedgehogs!

Sonic: [sparks medallion] A 1...

Sonia: [sparks medallion] And a 2...

Manic: [sparks medallion] And a 1, 2, 3, 4!

Sonic: Hey, Argus my man, buttnik throws a mean party, eh?

Argus-bot: ARREST ALL ENEMIES OF THE STATE!

Sonic: Sonia! Manic! I'm waiting...

Sonia: On our way!

Sonic: Ready medallions!

Sonia: Ready!

Manic: Ready!

Sonic: Activate!

Argus: Sonic? Sonia? Manic? What're you doing here? Last thing I remember -

Awwww, I don't even want to talk about it!

Sonia: Glad to hear it, cause we gotta jam!

Robotnik: Sleet! Dingo! Turn the lights on!

Sonic: [pulls Robotnik's head through the cover] Stylish sereppe,

Butt-meister! But since I've got places to go and folks to set free -

I gotta be spinning along!

Robotnik: Get that hedgehog!

Dingo: Argh! Falling out... under us... Aaaaah!

Sonic: Catch you on the flip-side!

Argus: Those were happier days indeed.

Sonic: I'll add a big 10-4 to that! D'you know where we can find Mom?

Argus: I was on my way to our rendesvous point when I was captured, so...

Manic: So, what're we waiting for?

Argus: With any luck, she'll be in the underground drainage caverns near...

Oh No! The Medallions Were Only A Temporary Fix!

Sonia: Fight it Argus! The Queen will be in the underground drainage caverns

near? Near?

Manic: Tone him again! We gotta blow that robotic program outta his brain!

Sonia: But the medallions are drained! They need time to recharge!

Sonic: Only time we've got now is to slam, jam, and scram!

Sonia: Fight it Argus! The Queen will be in the underground drainage caverns

near? Near?

Dingo: The Queen? That's exactly what you were hoping for!

Sleet: Too bad we can't access his human memories. Although, now that we

know where the hedgehogs will be looking, maybe we can lend them a

helping hand! [Sleet and Dingo laugh]

Manic: So, all I have to do is put out the word, and my homies will come

back with the 411. Anyway, a Queen is bound to stand out in this

neighborhood!

[They spark their medallions]

Sonic: Looks like everything's recharged!

The band then perform this week's song.

[the SoUnd reabsorb instruments]

[small crowd applauds then goes away]

Sonia: All we got to do is put out the word and your buds will come through

with the 411?!

Sonic: Hey, lay off the kid, Sonia, he's as disappointed as we are.

[An old man appears, obviously Dingo]

Old man: Hey, you with the drums! I heard you was looking for a Queen!

Manic: Ohh, you got that one right friend! What you got?

Old man: How much's it worth?

Manic: Ho-ho, more than money! You got the info, she'll buy you dinner!

Old man: Hehehahaha!

Sonia: MANIC...

Old man: In that case, for sure! I can tell you's exactly where to find th

e

Queen!

Sonic: Are you sure we're going the right way?

Manic: He said the underground waterworks is where he saw Ma. And there it

is!

Sonic: Yeah, but why would she want to hang around with all this water? Ugh!

Sonia: Y'know, some of us actually _like_ it... for washing, drinking, that

sort of thing!

Sonic: Hey look! It's Mom's scarf!

Sonia: So where's Mother?

Sonic: I don't know, and there's something wierd about this scarf...

Sleet: Do you mean the tag on the back that says...

Sonic: Property of Special Agent SLEET?! Great work Mr. 411, your lying

homey led us into a trap!

[Old man morphs back into Dingo]

Dingo: Thanks for dinner Sohnia, it was great!

Sonia: I took DINGO out for dinner?! WAAAAAAAAH!

Sonia: WAAAAAAAAAH!

Sleet: Give up hedgehogs, your mother isn't coming!

Manic: Sorry guys, I was trying to show you how cool I could be on my own

turf... and it blew up in our faces instead!

Sonic: No way! I should have never gotten down on you! It must have something to do with... all this water!

Sonia: Don't worry Manic - everyone makes mistakes. Even me!

Manic: Gee sis, you're all heart!

Sleet: Give up your useless search hedgehogs! Queen Aleena would never lower

herself to hide in an underground swamp!

Sonic: Oh yes she would - if she knew it would help get rid of old Buttnik

once and for all! Once all four of us get back together, he and his

hired goons won't stand a chance!

Okay let's move it! Sonia over there - Manic there! Get ready,

'cause once that Argus-bot climbs up here...

Sonia: We've gotta be ready to find out exactly what we need to know!

Sleet: On the other hand Dingo, just in case the Queen does care enough

about those brats to come to this miserable hole...

[morphs Dingo into Argus]

Sleet: Your job is to make sure she leaves with US!

Dingo: Waaaaaaaaaaaaah! Oof! [splash] Someday, Sleet, it'll be YOUR butt

wearing MY footprint!

Sonic: Hurry up Manic! It's showtime!

Manic: Outstanding!

Sonic: Whoa! Over here, tall dark and metallic!

[jumps up]

Sonic: Okay Underground, time to kick out the jam!

[they again use their medallions on the robotosized Argus]

Argus-bot: Nice going kids - since this won't last long, I'll talk fast!

The rendezvous point is there!

Manic: [drums] There she is! But so is Argus!

Sonic: No way! Argus is here!

Sonia: Which means it's Dingo in disguise! Mother! Look out!

Manic: My hover-board! It's blasted! SONIC!

Sonic: What? You expect me to jump? But that's WATER!

Sonia and Manic: It's also our mother!

Manic: Come on bro, we're waiting!

Sonic: How many times do I have to tell you - that's MY line!

[Sonic runs up the tower and leaps across]

Dingo: (Argus' voice): Your Majesty, don't go! I bring news of your kids!

Sonic: Forget it, 'Ding-dong'! This kid brings news of his own!

Dingo: (real voice) Awwww, I almost had her!

Argus-bot: Hurry! I'm Starting To Robotosize Again!

Sonia: Let's do it!

Argus: Hang On Tight!

[Argus-bot cuts down the tower with his arm-laser]

Sonia: I hope this works...

Sleet: What are you doing, you idiot bot?!

Argus-bot: Going Out With A Bang!

Sonia: Goodbye Argus!

Manic: We'll be back!

[Argus-bot turns back]

Sonic: You don't fool me, Dingo - so if you want me, come and get me!

[Dingo crashes into a pole and cuffs himself to it]

Sonic: Next time, leave my mother alone!

Sonia: Where's Mother?

Sonic: Gone. At least those guys can't get her either.

Manic: What about us?

Sonic: Don't worry bro, Sleet's pathetic lacky here ain't never gonna get

us - 'cause he ain't got the juice!

Dingo: Oh no? I'll show you juice!

Sleet: Dingo! No! [morphs him back]

Sonic: Dingo, yes!

Sleet: Turn around!

Sonic: I guess he had the juice after all!

Sonia: Take care.

Manic: Next time, Ma, next time.

Sleet: After them!

Sonic: Now let's juice!

Sleet: AFTER THEM! [falls over] Imbecile! Cretin! Muffin-brain!
