Arcee: (seeing Orion Pax and D-16 in the Iacon-5000 race) Miners! Those are miners like us! Soundwave: High guard, eject.

Dialogue

D-16: All right, all clear. Orion Pax: [exits the cart] OK, D-16. I may be a little rusty, but "corroded"? That is too far. D-16: Let me guess. Chased out of the archives? Orion Pax: (laughs) Yeah. I had to jump out of a window this time. Almost died. (laughs) It was wild. D-16: And digging through ancient data is worth dying for? Orion Pax: Yes, it is. D-16: I need a new best friend. Orion Pax: If there are clues in our recorded history that can help locate the Matrix of Leadership, they’re in the archives. D-16: Sentinel Prime, the Sentinel Prime, is up on the surface right now, risking his life for us in search of the Matrix. Orion Pax: That’s exactly what I’m doing. I’m trying to help him. D-16: Yeah, okay. (laughs) Orion Pax: The sooner Energon flows again, the sooner we won’t have to mine for it. Don't you want to choose your own path, do whatever you want? D-16: We're miners. We mine, that's all. Orion Pax: No, there has got to be something more I can do. I can feel it. D-16: Oh

Dialogue

Sentinel Prime: Racers, on your marks! D-16: I can't believe we get to watch from the starting line. The best seats in the house! [Suddenly, Orion inserts a jetpack on D's back] Why’d you bring jetpacks? Announcer: [countdown reaches a yellow spot] Get set! Orion Pax: It’s time to show them we are more than meets the eye. D-16: [realizes what is about to happen] Oh, no. Announcer: And they're off! D-16: [screaming] ARE YOU CRAZY? Orion Pax: Sure feels like it!

Dialogue

D-16: If we survive this, I'm gonna kill you! Orion Pax: I accept those terms!

Dialogue

Orion Pax: Elita! You okay? [Elita abruptly punches Orion in the face] AH-- Ugh! PLEASE stop punching me in the face. B-127: [in the background] Need help. Elita-1: Iacon... the train-- Where's the train?! Orion Pax: Relax, okay? Here it comes. Orion Pax: Aaaaaand, there it goes. Okay, I was... wrong about that. It was going the other way– Elita-1: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA–

Dialogue

Alpha Trion: Now you have seen the truth. D-16: [crushed and bitterly] Every day... every single day of my life... has been... a lie. Orion Pax: [angered] My God, I knew it! Deep down, I always felt something was off. D-16: [bitterly] He deceived... everyone. Elita-1: [angered] Sentinel bought himself power and then put us to work paying off his debt. B-127: [ashamed] I can't believe it. Well, obviously, I can believe it; I just saw it, but I still... I can't believe it. D-16: [bitterly] Sentinel lied [frowns angrily, and starts to boil up] to my face. Orion Pax: It was all a sham. How could we have been so gullible? Oh, this... this is going to change everything. D-16: You just had to do it, didn't you? Orion Pax: Me...? What did I do? D-16: You just had to go to the surface, had to enter the Iacon 5000; you just had to break protocol! Orion Pax: Who cares about protocol? D-16: I do! I care, because nothing bad happens when you stay on protocol! Orion Pax: Sentinel Prime has been forc

Dialogue

Elita-1: Uh… Why is he gagged? Shockwave: He wouldn't stop talking. Elita-1: Even when he was unconscious? Shockwave: Especially when he was unconscious!

Dialogue

Orion: In order to save our captured friends, we have to act now. Shockwave: How about I blast you back to Iaco- [Elita punches Shockwave in the eye] ARRGHH! Oh, she punched me in my eye! Elita: Everyone, shut up! All of you. [points at Orion] Listen to him. Orion: Most likely our friends are being held captive at the top of Sentinel's Tower. A surprise attack would give us a chance to rescue them. Soundwave: Impossible. We do not have enough soldiers or a way inside. Orion Pax: Elita will get us in, and I will get more troops. Shockwave: Why should we follow you? [Elita bangs her fist into her palm, threatening to punch him again] We will follow you. Soundwave: Attention, High Guard. Prepare for battle. What is our first move? Orion: [quietly and intensely] We roll out. Skywarp: What? Elita: [whispering] Louder. Orion: TRANSFORM AND ROLL OUT!

Dialogue

Sentinel: [smugly] Look at this rowdy bunch! The High Guard! You know, you guys have been tough to find. Every trip to the surface, I've been searching for you. Airachnid: Tracking the bots in the cave led me right to them. Sentinel Prime: Oh-ho-ho! You captured Starscream! Airachnid: It was too easy. Starscream: [voice still distorted due to damage from D-16] I'm going to rip you apart piece by piece so that your death is painful! And you'll regret the day you were– Sentinel: [laughs] You sound ridiculous! It's weird. Oh, D-16, what a tragic story you'll be. Atop the leaderboard in your sector, and secretly a traitor. D-16: [seething] I'm not a traitor. You're the traitor. Sentinel: Nuh-uh. You, all of you, are traitors. You've been working with the Quintessons to sabotage my expeditions. You're the reason why I haven't found the Matrix of Leadership yet. B-127: None of that is true! Sentinel: Oh, trust me, it'll be very true when I'm executing you in front of all of Iacon. Because do

Dialogue

Sentinel: You pathetic little twits! Did you really think you could knock down what I've built?! Orion: It's over, Sentinel! You can't escape the truth! Sentinel: What truth? That I plucked the cogs from your newborn chests, forced you to mine so I could pay off the Quintessons and live like a king?! None of that matters! [engages his battle mode] Because the truth... IS... WHAT... I... MAKE IT!

Dialogue

B-127: Orion! Orion, look! I have knife hands! Orion: I can see that. B-127: [Two Trackers land behind him] I'm gonna cut these guys. Watch. Come here! [The Trackers flee] Orion: You can jab them later. We got to go.

Dialogue

D-16: What are you doing?! Orion: It's over, D. Everyone in Iacon knows the truth. D-16: So do I! He took everything from us! I have to do this! Orion: No, you don't. Rebuilding Iacon cannot begin with an execution. D-16: He deserves to die! Can't you see that?! Orion: We're better than this. Don't be like Sentinel! D-16: [whispering in a seethed warning] Pax, you need to move out of my way... before I move you myself. Orion Pax: D, listen– Orion: STOP! D-16: No! No, no, no, no...Why?! WHY did you do that?! WHY?! Orion: [weakly] D...no... D-16: I'm DONE saving you.

Dialogue

D-16: THE AGE OF PRIMES HAS ENDED! NO MORE FALSE PROPHETS! FOLLOW ME, AND YOU WILL NEVER AGAIN BE DECEIVED! RIIISE UUUP! The High Guard: RISE UP. RISE UP. RISE UP. RISE UP. D-16: I WILL LEAD US ALL INTO THE FUTURE! D-16: I... AM... <big></big> Alpha Trion: ARISE! Megatron: Burn it down! ALL OF IT! Starscream: All hail Megatron! [he along with Shockwave and Soundwave begin firing around Iacon] B-127: He's gonna kill everyone! Elita-1: We have to stop him! Elita-1: Stop! It's over! Megatron: It's over when every last one of his followers is DEAD! Megatron: Impossible... Primus gave you the Matrix?! Optimus Prime: We could've built the future together... Megatron: I'll build it myself... after I tear down everyone IN MY WAY!

Dialogue

Optimus: We were given the power to change our world, and you chose to destroy it. Just like Sentinel. You have betrayed Cybertron and its citizens. [his faceplate retracts, revealing how truly heartbroken he is over losing his best friend] And you betrayed... me. Optimus: Go. Take the High Guard and leave. [He finally makes eye contact.] You are... banished from Iacon. Optimus: It didn't have to end this way. Megatron: [spitefully] This isn't over... Prime. Megatron: High Guard! Follow me!

Dialogue

Orion Pax: [D-16 is completing his working place with decorations based on Megatronus Prime] Hey, Megatronus Prime. Nice! D-16: Oh, yeah. Well, he's my hero. Both: The greatest Prime to ever live. D-16: I'm D-16. Orion: Orion Pax. D-16: You... ever mined Energon before? Orion: No. You? D-16: No. I hear it's dangerous. Orion: Well, tell you what. You watch my back, I promise to watch yours. D-16: All right. Thanks, Pax.
