Orion Pax / Optimus Prime
[edit]
- It's time to show them we are more than meets the eye.
- Transform and roll out!
- I know we're just lowly worker bots who can't even transform.
- What defines a Transformer is not the cog in its chest but the spark that resides in their core... a spark that gives you the will to make your world better, and that is something Sentinel can never take from us. If we want to be in control of our own destiny, we will have to fight for it. Now is the time for us to stand up. For ourselves. Stand up for this injustice! I promise you, this fight will be worth it. Follow me; nothing can stop us when we stand together! Together as one!
- Now is the time to stand together.
- We could've built the future together.
- 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. And you betrayed me. Go. Take the High Guard, and leave. You are... banished from Iacon. It didn't have to end this way.
- A line between friend and enemy is not as clear as I once believed. Once it's crossed, there's no going back, because some transformations are permanent.
- And now we stand here, together as one, proving we all have the power to transform. To become who we were destined to be. To right wrongs, to make our world better. Because here, freedom and autonomy are the rights of all sentient beings. Here, all are truly Autobots. This message is a warning to all Quintessons: if you dare return to Cybertron, the Autobots will be waiting. I will be waiting. I am Optimus Prime!
D-16 / Megatron
[edit]
- There's a reason no one goes to the surface, it's dangerous.
- Like you said, we can be so much more.
- Pax, you need to move out of my way, before I move you myself.
- Every day... every single day of my life has been a lie.
- Bare witness! This is the last time I show mercy! Decide right now! You can stay here in hiding, bowing before your pathetic leader, or follow me as we march on Iacon and I take down Sentinel ONCE AND FOR ALL!
- I'm done saving you.
- I will lead us all into the future. I... AM... MEGATRON!!!
- The age of primes has ended! No more false prophets! Follow me, and you will never again be deceived! RISE UP!!!
- This isn't over, Prime.
- [Last lines of the film] Sentinel, the betrayer, is dead. But his death has given life to a new enemy. A STRONGER enemy. A PERSONAL enemy. We will NOT be blinded by his deception! We are the ones who are! DECEPTICONS!!! RISE UP!!! [Decepticons: (chanting) RISE UP! RISE UP! RISE UP!]
B-127 / Bumblebee
[edit]
- I'm actually working on some nicknames. The one I'm floatin' right now is, um, "Badassatron", which is actually pronounced [deep voice] Badassatron.
- Badassatron.
- A cave with teeth. Nothing scary about that.
- [From the trailer] Whoa-ho-ho! I got a battle mask! It appeared when this guy— [gestures, bisecting the drone's head] Knife hands?! I have knife hands!
- This is the greatest day of my life! I get to work for the government!
Elita-1
[edit]
- We can transform now!
- [From the trailer] We've got these powers for a reason. Let's use them.
- [From the trailer] Maybe it's just me, but (reffering to D-16) he's different.
- (seeing Orion and D-16 at the Iacon-5000 race) You gotta be kidding me.
- I'm better than you in every way, except you have hope. You always have you went back into the mine to rescue Jazz, you snuck up to the surface to find the Matrix of Leadership.
- (after she and Orion successfully expose the truth about Sentinel) Pax, we did it!
Starscream
[edit]
- Now are you spies? Or just incompetent lackeys?
- The idea of a unified Cybertron is a myth. All that counts is the strength of one bot over another!
- PLEASE!!! I BEG YOU!
- All hail Megatron!
Sentinel Prime
[edit]
- (seeing Orion Pax and D-16 in the Iacon-5000 race) I'm sorry, are those... miners in the race?
- (Zeta Prime: "Sentinel... why?!") For all the power on Cybertron.
- (the Quintesson commander threatens Sentinel due to the Energon he and his forces brought not being enough) I know what I promised you! But our mines, they’re running out! There’s barely enough Energon for us! (the Quintesson commander growls) I swear, I'll get you the rest!
- Down here, the truth is what I make it.
- (seeing the Megatronus decal on D-16's shoulder) Oh, Megatronus Prime. Of course you’re a fan, Megatronus was the coolest Prime! The biggest, the baddest, the toughest! That's why after I killed him, I took his cog for myself.
- (last words) D-16... we can lead Cybertron together...! DON'T DO THIS...!
Alpha Trion
[edit]
- For thousands of cycles, the war with the Quintessons had been a brutal conflict. Until Sentinel, the principal aide to the Primes, intercepted an enemy transmission. There was going to be a secret gathering of Quintesson commanders. Their elimination could end the war. It was a mission so important, we Primes took it on ourselves. We agreed to meet Sentinel for his sensitive intel in secret. Here, in this cave. But we were not alone. [...] We were outnumbered but stood as one. Our victory was near. Until we were betrayed. [...] But Sentinel never understood the true power of what he desired. The Matrix of Leadership can only be wielded by one that Primus himself deems worthy. And Sentinel most certainly was not.
- What defines a Transformer is not the cog in his chest, but the spark that resides in their core. A spark that gives you the will to make your world better. My fellow Primes had that spark, and I see their strength in you. Take their cogs and access your full potential.
- You have the power to make your world better, but this fight is mine.
- Sentinel is no Prime!
- Orion Pax, your noble sacrifice for the greater good has proven you worthy in the eyes of Primus, he entrusts in you, the future of Cybertron, and... the Matrix of Leadership!
- ARISE! Optimus Prime.
Airachnid
[edit]
- You can't win, miner! I see everything!
Darkwing
[edit]
- GRRRRR!! Miners!
- Report to waste management!
Other characters
[edit]
- Arcee: (seeing Orion Pax and D-16 in the Iacon-5000 race) Miners! Those are miners like us!
- Soundwave: High guard, eject.
Dialogue
[edit]
- (the Iacon-5000 race is about to begin)
- Sentinel Prime: Racers, on your marks!
[racers transform into their vehicle forms, and start their engines]
- 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: [realises what is about to happen] Oh, no.
[countdown reaches the green light, and Sentinel fires a shoot in the air, starting the race]
- Announcer: And they’re off!
[Orion and D are ejected from the seats, and land on the track. Orion activates his jetpack, and grabs D]
- D-16: [screamming] ARE YOU CRAZY?!!
- Orion Pax: Sure feels like it.
- D-16: If we survive this, I'm gonna kill you!
- Orion Pax: I accept those terms.
- [the cargo train that Elita, Orion, D-16, and B-127 were on just crashed, Elita is just re-gaining consciousness]
- 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.
- [the train speeds by]
- Orion Pax: Aaaaaand, there it goes. Okay, I was... wrong about that. It was going the other way--
- [an enraged Elita lets out a massive scream which echoes across the surface]
- [the protagonists have just learned the truth, and D-16 is losing it]
- 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 forcing us to work in the mines until our gears strip. And all the while, he's been giving the Energon away to our greatest enemies.
- D-16: Uhh, and what do you think he's gonna do to us when he finds out that we know?
- Orion Pax: I'm not thinking about what he's going to do, I'm thinking about what we're going to do.
- D-16: Well, that's the whole thing! You're never thinking about anything else, just yourself. Fantastic! Another Orion Pax master plan! I can't wait to hear this!
- Orion Pax: Hey, don't you want to stop him?
- D-16: NO, I WANT TO KILL HIM!! I want to put Sentinel in chains and march him through the mines so EVERYONE can see him for the FALSE PRIME that he is! I want him to suffer, and then to die in DARKNESS. But we all know that it doesn't matter what I want, right, Pax? The fact is, we're just cogless bots. Right?! [Orion begins to ponder] Ha, ha, we had limited options. And now... now we have none.
- Alpha Trion: No son or daughter of Cybertron is born without a cog.
- D-16: Oh, yeah. I've been myself since I came online, and this slot's always been empty.
- Elita-1: What are you saying? Are you saying...?
- B-127: No. No way. Nobody could be that evil, not even Sentinel.
- Alpha Trion: He removed your cogs before you came online.
- Elita-1: Why is B gagged?
- Shockwave: He wouldn't stop talking.
- Elita-1: Even when he was unconscious?
- Shockwave: ESPECIALLY when he was unconscious!
- 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 to 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!
- 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! Because the truth... IS... WHAT... I...MAKE IT!
- 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: Pax, you need to move out of my way... before I move you myself.
- Orion Pax: D, listen-
- [D-16 has had enough. He forces Pax out of the way by force. He readies his launcher. The end of Sentinel is near. But then...]
- Orion: STOP!!!
- [Orion jumps in the way, and D-16 shoots Pax, blasting nearly his entire right side off. He slides off the edge, but D saves him]
- D-16: No! No, no, no, no... why?! WHY did you do that?! WHY?!
- [D starts hyperventilating. He's breaking down over what he's done. But something's changing. Orion has a terrified expression]
- Orion: [weakly] D..... no...
- [D is calming down. He looks down at himself, but then he turns to Orion with fully red eyes, as he was getting enraged.]
- Megatron: I'm DONE saving you.
- [then, he drops Orion to his apparent death]
- [Megatron fights sentinal's guards as Orion falls. Meanwhile, Megatron picks Sentinel up and rips him in half]
- Alpha Trion: Orion Pax, your noble sacrifice for the greater good has proven you worthy in the eyes of Primus. He entrusts in you the future of Cybertron, and...the Matrix of Leadership! [the Matrix reappears and inserts itself into Orion's chest, rebuilding him]
- Megatron: THE AGE OF PRIMES HAS ENDED! NO MORE FALSE PROPHETS! FOLLOW ME, AND YOU WILL NEVER AGAIN BE DECEIVED! RIIISE UUUUP![the High Guard all cheer "Rise up! Rise up!"] I WILL LEAD US ALL INTO THE FUTURE! [Installs the T-Cog of Megatronus, flashing a vicious Smile as he changes into his iconic appearance.] I... AM... MEGATRON!!!!
- alpha:ARISE!...Optimus Prime... [Optimus' optics flicker open.]
- Megatron: Impossible. Primus gave you the Matrix?
- Optimus Prime: We could have built the future together.
- Megatron: I'll build it myself... after I tear down EVERYONE IN MY WAY!
- [Optimus has just bested Megatron in combat.]
- 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.
- [Optimus's faceplate retracts, revealing how truly heartbroken he is over losing his best friend.]
- Optimus: And you betrayed... me.
- [Megatron gets to his feet to meet Optimus at eye level, though the new Prime avoids eye contact at first.]
- Optimus: Go. Take the High Guard, and leave. [He finally makes eye contact with Megatron.] You are... banished from Iacon.
- [Megatron looks hurt, but only for a moment, as his face becomes one of hatred once again.]
- Optimus Prime: It didn't have to end this way.
- Megatron: This isn't over... PRIME. [After another brief glare between the two, Optimus stands to one side to allow Megatron to limp away.] High Guard! Follow me! [Megatron transforms into his tank form and rides away, with the members of the High Guard following him out of Iacon.]
(as Optimus watches Megatron and the High Guard leave Iacon City, he remembers the day he (as Orion Pax) first met D-16 during their first day at the mining crew)
- 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 was my hero.
- Both: The greatest Prime to ever live.
(they share laughs and shake hands)
- 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.
(they fist-bump, ending the flashback)
- Optimus Prime: [Last words] And now we stand here, together as one, proving we all have the power to transform. To become who we were destined to be. To right wrongs, to make our world better. Because here, freedom and autonomy are the rights of all sentient beings. Here, all are truly Autobots. This message is a warning to all Quintessons: if you dare return to Cybertron, the Autobots will be waiting. I will be waiting. I am Optimus Prime!
