This is a transcript of the Sonic Underground episode, "Friend or Foe?".

[The Sonic Underground theme song plays]

Aleena (narrating): Following their quest, my children continued to learn one lesson: that things are not always what they seem.

Manic: Hang loose, Sonia, it's just a rumor!

Sonia: Duh! But what if Mother really is here?

Sonic: She'd better be! I missed the opening of a new chili dog stand for this. [walks out onto the island] This is the dreaded Floating Island? Oooh, I'm scared(!)

Sonia: Sonic! Remember what the Oracle said. The Floating Island is fraught with danger. Beware the echidna.

Sonic: Fraught? What kind of stupid word is that?!

Sonia: Fraught means "filled", as in "filled with danger".

Sonic: What danger? If you're so fraught, I'll check this place out.

Sonia: SONIC!

Sonic: Aaarghh!

Manic and Sonia: [gasps] [sees Sonic in a trap] Huh?

Manic: Just hangin' out, bro?

Sonia: Like I said... fraught with danger!

Sonic: Danger? You mean this nifty hammock?

Manic: We'll call this Echidna 1, Hedgehog 0.

Robotnik: Answer me, you fools! Sleet! Dingo!

Dingo: Mmmm, tuna fish, my favorite!

Sleet: Shut up and eat. Robotnik should be calling soon.

Robotnik: Sleet! Do you hear me? Answer me or you're bot bait!

Dingo: Huh? Boy, I must be hungrier than I thought. My stomach is really growling! And it sounds like Robotnik!

Sleet: Oh, you are so stupid!

Robotnik: Dunderheads! You have ten seconds to answer me. Ten...

Dingo: Me? But I just said-

Sleet: It is Robotnik, you moron!

Dingo: Where?!

Sleet: [gasps] Oof!

Robotnik: Seven... Six...

Sleet: On the communicator! Hold still, you half-wit.

Robotnik: Five...

Dingo: Oh.

Robotnik: Four... Three...

Sleet: Ah...

Robotnik: Two... [Sleet switches on the screen] One! About time. Where were you?

Sleet: Uh, er...

Robotnik: Silence! Apparently the hedgehogs believe the rumors. Intelligence reports they're on the way. You know the plan. Turn the echidna against the hedgehogs and get me the Chaos Emerald.

Sleet: And when we take the Emerald, the island will plummet down and crash!

Robotnik: And the hedgehogs will fall with it! [laughs]

Sleet: [snickers] Brilliant plan, sir. We are on our way. Sleet out. [switches off the screen] Put that in your backpack and let's go find the echidna.

Dingo: Er, what's an echidna?

Sleet: Not "what", you dolt! "Who". It's who guards this island. His name is Knuckles, and he's in for a big Robotnik surprise. He's tough, and he's especially known for his- [falls into a pit trap] TRAAAAPS!

Dingo: Whoooaah! [thud]

Knuckles: You wolf-faces should have stayed home. Now you get to be dinner!

[Sleet and Dingo also noticed that they're tied together to a rotisserie]

Dingo: You- you're gonna eat us?!

Knuckles: No.

Dingo: Oh, phew!

Sleet: Good.

Knuckles: [whistles]

[Chomps appears from a bush]

Sleet and Dingo: Waarrgh!

Knuckles: But Chomps will.

Sleet: You've got us all wrong, Mr. Knuckles. We are your friends!

Knuckles: Of course! All my friends sneak onto my island. I don't think so!

Sleet: No, you don't understand! We're here to stop the real invaders! Three hedgehogs! I can prove it!

Knuckles: How?

Sleet: Look in my pocket. [Knuckles picks up a remote] Press that button.

Dingo: [feeling the heat] Er, Sleet-

Sleet: Shut up! The red button.

Dingo: SLEET!

Sleet: Put a cork in it, Dingface! Check it out.

Sonic (hologram): Gotta cruise, dudes! We gotta find that Chaos Emerald before that dopey defender Knuckles gets us!

Sonia (hologram): You are not often right, older brother, but on this occasion I agree. Come, Manic!

Manic (hologram): We are more clever than that dumb Knuckles guy!

Sleet: M-Mr. Knuckles, we're getting a little warm here, if you don't mind, eh...

Knuckles: Those hedgehogs want the Emerald, do they? Well, they'll have to get past me! All right, you wolf-faces are free to go - this time. But you must leave the island now!

Sleet: An amiable deal, my friend. We'll be off the island faster than you can say "Sonic the Hedgehog".

Knuckles: Sorry, Chomps. But cheer up! I hear hedgehogs have just come into season...

Dingo: Nice doggy... [Chomps threatens him] Arrgh!

Sleet: Outta here!

Dingo: Aaargh!

Sonic (hologram): We gotta find those Emeralds. Gotta find those Emeralds.

Sonic: [gasps]

Manic: Oof!

Sonic: [laughs loud]

Sonia: Shhh! I'm getting a feeling, like there's something close by.

Sonic: Oh, big whoop! We're following your feelings around? Boy, it just doesn't get any better than this(!)

Sonia: Hey guys! Look at this! A sacred pool. I've read about these!

Sonic: Huh?

Sonia: [gasps]

Sonic: Whoa, we're talkin' some serious special effects!

Sonia: I can't believe it really exists! [Manic tries to touch it] Manic, don't!

Manic: What?

Sonia: I see something forming.

Manic: Mom!

Sonia: She's here! I knew it!

Sonic: Wow, looks like you were right, Sonia!

Sonia: You're saying I'm right? Manic, you're a witness.

Sonic, Manic and Sonia: [gasps] [the ground cracks open and they scream] Huh? [Knuckles bursts out] Aaarrgh!

Manic: What's happening? Whoa, dude! You nailed that landing. I give it a 10!

Knuckles: Hedgehog thieves!

Sonic: [coughs] Not exactly the welcome mat we expected.

Sonia: [coughs] Look at this! You'd better have a real good dry-cleaners on this rock!

Knuckles: You came here to steal the Emerald, but I'll stop you!

Sonic: Chill, fella, we're not thieves! [looks at Manic] Well, mostly we're not. Anyway...

Knuckles: [growls]

Sonic: Huh? [falls back] Oof! Nice to meet you, too(!)

Knuckles: I hate thieves!

Sonia: Sonic! Are you all right?

Manic: Boy, that guy's good!

Sonic: What are you, nuts? 'Cos if you're thinking of starting a fan club, Manic... here comes your hero!

Manic and Sonia: [gasps]

Sonic: Okay, knuckle-boy. If that's the way you wanna play it, let's get basic!

Sonia: Sonic, wait! Maybe we can reason with him.

Sonic: Good idea, sis... NOT! Here's a taste of the Super Sonic Triple Spin, pal!

Sonia: [gasps]

Knuckles: Whoooaa!

Sonic: Whoaa!

Knuckles: Ugh!

Sonic: You guys can jump in here any time, y'know.

Manic: Ah, we knew you had it covered.

Sonia: This time, we're gonna reason with him! Where'd he go?

Sonic: Guess Super Spin was a little too much for him.

Sonic, Manic and Sonia: Huh?

Manic: I would bet... not!

Sonia: Listen, echidna guy! We aren't here to steal anything! We're here to find Queen Aleena!

Manic: Whoa, maybe that worked!

Sonic: Hey sis, what are your feelings telling you now?

Sonia: Er... that we'd better LEAVE!

Sonic: Huh?

Manic: Huh?

Knuckles: You're lying!

Sonic: I'll handle this.

Sonia: Sure! Why not? You've done such a superb job so far(!)

Manic and Sonia: [both scream]

Knuckles: [gasps] [Sonic spins him round] Whooaa! Aaaagh!

Sonic: One more time! [Knuckles burrows into the ground] Come back and fight, knuckle-butt!

Knuckles: Lying hedgehogs! Thieves!

Sonic: Huh?

Sonia: Okay. I've had enough.

Knuckles: [yells then cuts a support rope] Heh!

Manic and Sonia: [both scream]

Sonic: Hang on, guys! Here I- [falls into a trap] Whooaaa! [grabs the edge] Yes! [Knuckles arrives to drop him in] No! [strains] [falls and screams]

Knuckles: Goodbye, hedgehogs!

Sonic: Ooh, ah, ooh! Ah... [lands and gets stuck] Huh? [strains] Hah! That's it. You're toast, knuckle-head! Outta here!

Sleet: That echidna is even dumber than you, Dingo.

Dingo: Thank you!

Sleet: Then again, maybe not. I bet those hedgehogs are history by now! [cackles] [finds a river] Come on! We have to go down the river to get to the Emerald.

Dingo: In what? [Sleet morphs him into a rowboat] I had to ask...

Sonia: This doesn't look promising.

Manic: Guess we'll have to wait for Sonic.

Sonia: Guess again!

Sonic: This is the place! [looks into the pit] Whoa. Hellooooo? Here goes nothin'...

Knuckles: Hedgehog?

Sonic: That's gotta hurt. [Knuckles charges at him] Whoa, take a chill pill, dude! You're way too excited.

Knuckles: Heearrrgh!

Sonic: Obviously you haven't heard about the famous hedgehog's speed. All right, take your best shot!

Sonia: That should do it!

Manic: Crashin'!

Knuckles: Now you're mine, hedgehog!

Sonic: Ah, ah, uh, ooh, uh, ah! Come on. You can do better than that, knuckle-brain! We're not done yet, pal. You're takin' me to Sonia and Manic!

Manic: Rippin' glow!

Sonia: Are you kidding? This light does nothing for my complexion. [sees the river] Oh, how beautiful!

Manic: Yeah...

Manic and Sonia: [gasps]

Sonia: What's that noise?

Manic and Sonia: Huh?

Sonic (hologram): We gotta find that Chaos Emerald before that dopey defender Knuckles gets us!

Sonia: Now there's something you don't see every day!

Sonic: Hmm, that first step's a real trip.

Knuckles: Hey, hedgehog! Can you fly?

Sonic: Huh? [Knuckles cracks the bridge] Bummer majores...

Sonic: Only one chance! [jumps across] Uhh! Eyah! Spin and win time!

Knuckles: No!

Sonic: That wasn't very nice.

Knuckles: Ah, ahh...!

Sonic: Hmm, need a hand? Ah... just a little joke there!

Knuckles: Wah, wah... [falls off the island] Whooaa! Whooaaa!

Sonic: Uh!

Knuckles: Why'd ya save me?

Sonic: Let's talk, bud.

Sonia: There there, we'll fix it!

Manic: I guess. Here goes nothin'!

Sonia: Huh? [Chomps coughs up the remote] [gasps]

Manic: Yuck! Thanks. Ugh...

Sonia: A holo-projector? This reeks of Robotnik!

Manic: No, I think it's his breath!

Sonia: Très drôle. So, big guy, where'd you get this?

Manic: Not gonna work like that, sis. Let me try.

Sonia: Fine!

Manic: Okay, pal. One snap means "yes", two snaps means "no". Got it?

[Chomps snaps once]

Sonia: Oh, get over yourself!

Manic: So, did ya get that thing from a big round guy with a mustache?

[Chomps snaps twice]

Manic: Ah... what about a big ugly dog kinda guy with a little sleazeball?

[Chomps snaps once]

Sonia: Sleet and Dingo. Nice work, bro! Can you take us to them?

[Chomps snaps once]

Sleet: Aha!

Dingo: Ouch! [Sleet morphs him back] [spits] [sees the Emerald] [gasps] Is that it?

Sleet: It's fantastic!

Knuckles: Then the wolf-faces left the Floating Island.

Sonic: Left? Seems hard to believe, Knuck. They're always after something.

Knuckles: THE EMERALD! [sees Sleet and Dingo in the Sacred Pool with the Emerald] Nooooo!

Sonic and Knuckles: [gasps]

Sonic: Whoa! Why am I floating?!

Knuckles: You're not floating, the island is falling!

Sonic and Knuckles: Oof!

Sleet: Take this. We have to get out of here.

Sonia: Not so fast, Sleet!

Dingo: Aww, Sonia!

Sleet: How convenient! [escapes through the hole] Hurry, Dingo!

Sonic and Knuckles: Whoa, oof!

Sonic: Man, we'd better get that Emerald back, or we're gonna splatter like bugs when we hit!

Sonia: Sonic!

Sonic and Knuckles: Huh?

Sonia: Up there! Sleet and Dingo!

Sonic: [gasps]

Sleet: [chuckles] Almost there! Hurry, Dingo!

Dingo: Look! Ah, it's Sonia again! [stubs his toe] Oww! [drops the Emerald] Uh-oh.

Sleet: Dingo, let's go! [sees the Emerald rolling away] Argh, you idiot! [pushes a button] SWATbots, move out. Retrieve the Emerald.

Sonia: They're getting away!

Sonic: But not with the Emerald! Look! Let's do it to it!

["Not Always What They Seem" plays]

Sonic: Sonia? Manic?

Sonia: Hey!

Manic: We did it!

Manic and Sonia: Whoa!

Knuckles: Sonic! The Emerald!

Robotnik: Sleet! Dingo! You'd better have the Emerald. If you don't, I'm going to have you roboticized piece by piece! Where are you?! ANSWER ME!

Dingo: Sleet, did you ever hear a little voice, like, talkin' to ya?

Knuckles: This is krupnik, an echidnan delicacy. It's good! Go ahead, eat up!

Sonic: [sniffs] Ahh, thanks Knux!

Knuckles: So, why did you come to Floating Island?

Manic: To find our Mom, Queen Aleena.

Knuckles: Queen Aleena is your Mom? Why didn't you say so? I knew her! She was here when I was just a kid!

Knuckles: She left this for you.

Sonia: In the final days of Robotnik's tyranny...

Aleena (narrating): ...allies will unite with my children. First among them will be Knuckles, guardian of the Chaos Emerald.
