Sonic the Hedgehog - "Girl Trouble, Part 2"[]

Synopsis[]

The Egg Fortress, in the Special Zone. Doctor Robotnik emerges from his giant egg, transformed into a new and more powerful form.

Robotnik's chief scientist, Grimer, has captured Sonic, Johnny Lightfoot, and Amy Rose. Amy is caged, while Sonic and Johnny are trapped in an impenetrable pink bubble. Sonic seems more concerned about clarifying that Amy isn't his girlfriend than escaping, but Grimer assumes this is a ruse so that he'll let Amy go (it isn't, but in any case it doesn't work). Robotnik makes his grand entrance, and the "new form" elicits surprise from Grimer and mild amusement from Sonic, who comments that Robotnik should "stop takin' those ugly pills!"

Robotnik explains that he intends to turn all three of them into "Super Badniks", and once transformed they will never be able to change back! Amy is taken first, and placed inside an exo-suit by Troopers. Sonic decides he's been trapped long enough, and starts to run inside the bubble... which starts to roll with him! Using the bubble as a bowling ball he destroys almost all of the Troopers (making Johnny feel ill at the same time). The last Trooper takes aim with his gun and - despite Grimer's cry not to shoot - shoots the bubble, bursting it and freeing Sonic and Johnny!

Amy, now locked inside her badnik exoskeleton, can feel the badnik program trying to take over her mind. Sonic jokes about leaving her behind, but when Johnny objects he frees her with a Super Spin-Attack. As the three escape, Robotnik demands that somebody stop them... only to find that Grimer is attacking the last remaining Trooper with a spanner for not obeying his instructions ("I said 'Don't shoot' ... and I meant ... Don't shoot!"). Robotnik is furious with Grimer, who meekly says he got carried away, and Grimer will have to be punished.

Back at Sonic's Secret Underground Base, Johnny says that Amy will now have to join the Freedom Fighters, since it will be too dangerous for her back in the village. Sonic reluctantly agrees, but insists that Amy admit she is not his girlfriend. She does... and then adds "Not yet, anyway!"

Elsewhere, Robotnik and Grimer (looking worse the wear after his punishment) are putting the finishing touches on a new and deadly experiment. "Yes!" cackles Robotnik. "Even Sonic will be no match for 'Operation Metallix!'"
