This is the episode script for Ryan's Adventures of Transformers: Animated - Transform and Roll Out.
Script[]
Opening/Optimus and the repair crew find the AllSpark/[]
[The Autobots logo from G1 is shown, clips from the G1 Transformers series are now showing]
Narrator: Many millions of years ago, war raged betwen the forces of the heroic Autobots and the brutal Decepticons for control of the planet Cybertron. The Autobots batled valiantly in the name of honor, their courageous exploits bringing hope and glory to a beleagured war-torn planet, and inspiring countless generations of robots yet to come online.
[We cut to inside the ship where a robot named Optimus Prime is watching it. A med bot named Ratchet shows up]
Ratchet: What a loud of scrap metal. [] Why do you waste your time with those old history vids?
Optimus Prime: All the great Autobot leaders learn from the past.
Ratchet: Look around, Prime. The Great War has ended centuries ago.
Optimus Prime: But you were there, Ratchet. You saw the action. What would the Decepticons really like?
Ratchet: Trust me, kid. You better off not knowing. Besides, looks like the young bots could use a hand.
[We cut to a bot named Bulkhead who has his wrecking ball arm stuck]
Bulkhead: Bumblebee, my wrecking ball's stuck again!
[Optimus sighs and goes with Ratchet to the part of the ship]
Optimus Prime: You ever get the feeling you were programmed for something more then just repairing space bridges?
Ratchet: I got a diagnostics program that can delete that feeling like a bad line of code.
[Optimus presses a button and the ark's hanger door extends onto an asteroid. Inside, Ratchet and Optimus transform to their cyber vehicle modes. They drive off and the hanger door opens. Meanwhile]
Bulkhead: I don't like heights, Bumblebee!
Bumblebee: Cool your circuits, Bulkhead. I'm working as fast as I can. And you know there's no bot faster.
[He uses his stinger at a rock and then he kicks it. Bulkhead feels like he's gonna barf]
Bulkhead: I think I'm gonna blow a gasket.
Bumblebee: Try to hold it in a little longer!
[Then, Bulkhead and Bee fall on the floor with some rocks. Optimus and Ratchet arrive and transform]
Optimus Prime: Alright. What seems to be the problem?
Bumblebee: I think the technical term is "bunch of honking rocks jamming space bridge".
Bulkhead: You know what I can't figure out? Why would anyone want to transport to this AllSpark foresaken sector?
Optimus Prime: That's not the point, Bulkhead. We have a job to do here. And no problem is insurmountable with the right tools. [pulls out his axe] And a little teamwork. [starts to attack the rocks] Everyone lend a servo. Bulkhead.
[Bulkhead punches some rocks to Bumblebee using his stingers]
Optimus Prime: And Bumblebee. Come on, Ratchet!
[Ratchet uses his magnets on the rocks. To Optimus]
Optimus Prime: You too, Prowl. [] Hey. Where is Prowl?
[Then, a ninja star goes flying toward a rock. Optimus dodges it as it hits the rock. The ninja star goes flying to the ninja Autobot Prowl and he catches it]
Prowl: Just have to know the weak spot.
Optimus Prime: Yeah. Next time, you might wanna give us a little more warning.
Prowl: That would just mess up my time.
Ratchet: Young bots. Can't live with 'em, can't melt 'em down for spare parts.
Bulkhead: [to Bee] Why he's so grumpy all the time?
Bumblebee: You be grumpy too if you have one servo in the scrapheap.
[Ratchet smacks Bumblebee on the head]
Ratchet: I may have one servo in the scrapheap, but I can still hear.
Optimus Prime: Okay, I know we're stuck out here in the middle of nowhere on a thankless assignment, but remember, we're all gods in a great Autobot machine.
Prowl: [face palms] Not this speech again.
Optimus Prime: A machine that's stronger as a whole than any one component part. Together, we can move mountains.
[The space bridge activates
Bumblebee: Bad choice of words, Big Bot!
[
Prowl: Impressive. [closes Bulkhead's mouth]
Bulkhead:
Ratchet:
Bumblebee: Yeah. Shouldn’t you be leading the Cybertron Elite Gaurd or something?
-
-
Optimus Prime: Decepticon? That must be a mistake. The Decepticons were destroyed centuries ago.
Ratchet: Defeated, not destroyed.
-
-
-
Ratchet:
Bumblebee: So you're saying we found the AllSpark. The real AllSpark?
Ratchet: No. I'm saying it found us.
Teletraan 1: Warning. Spacecraft approaching. Positive identification as Decepticon warship.
-
-
Ultra Magnus: Ultra Magnus here, Optimus. We're tracking your Decepticon signal. Probably just a lost scout ship. Ever since we drove them off Cybertron, the Cons have been wandering the periphery. They'll never be so foolish as to invade Autobot space. Still, I'm sending out a strike force to intercept if neccessary. Meantime, you and your bots just sit tight. And Prime, don't try to be a hero. It's not in your programming.
[
Prowl:

-
Optimus Prime: It's a command ship. I recognised the markings from the history vids.
Ratchet: Megatron..
Bumblebee: Megatron? As in the cruel and vicious Decepticon leader who eats Autobot protoforms for breakfast!?
[At the Decepticon ship, Starscream, Megatron's second in command, watches as the Ark flies in space. A robot named Lugnut watches Starscream]
Starscream: Megatron is a fool who's been chasing a ghost for centuries. I seriously doubt we'll find this "AllSpark" aboard such an insignificant vessel.
Lugnut: TRAITOR!! Megatron is wise! Megatron is bold! Megatron will return the Decepticons to Cybertron and...
Spiderlady Decepticon: [shows up] And wipe our home land clean of the stench of Autobot tyranny. Blahdy, blah-blah-blah. Did you memorize that speech, Lugnut, or is it just hard wired into that thick one-track processor of yours!?
[Her arm is covered by a beam and it is in ice. A robot named Blitzwing shows up]
Icy Blitzwing: As usual, Blackarachnia, your demeanor is as unpleasant as that accursed, organic mode of yours.
Blackarachnia: Blow it out your actuator, three face. [snarls and breaks the ice on her hand)
[Blitzwing's face change to a red one]
Hothead Blitzwing: Ze name is BLITZWING, insect! REMEMBER IT! Because it's ze last thing you're gonna hear before I-
[His face changed again to a black face with red eyes and a mouth like a jackolantern]
Random Blitzwing: Express my feelings in song! [in singsong] Ze itsy bitsy spider…
Blackaracnia: You have badlet out of head, Blitzwing!
Starscream: Could you metal bunches keep it down?
Lugnut: No one mocks the word of Megatron!
[Then, the doors open and the Decepticons stop arguing and stare at their leader. The Decepticon leader walks as his Decepticons stand in attention. His name is Megatron. He walks and stops as he looks at the Autobot ship]
Megatron: Starscream, report.
Starscream: Energy reading off the scale, my liege. Shall I fire on the Autobots?
Megatron: Cripple their ship, but do not destroy it… yet.
Starscream: Yes, yes, yes! Brilliant strategy, o wise and great leader.
[Outside, the Nemesis charges its weapon. Inside the Ark]
Optimus Prime: Teletraan 1, evasive manoeuvres!
[The Ark moves and dodges the blast from the Nemesis. Inside, Optimus tells Teletraan one]
Optimus Prime: Activate emergency defence system! Codename; Omega!
Teletraan 1: I'm sorry, this function has been disabled in compliance with Cybertron's ongoing efforts to conserve Energon.
Optimus Prime: What?
[The ship shakes and the three Autobots fall on the floor. The ship flies and dodges the Nemesis' weapon fire. Inside]
Bumblebee: We're all gonna die, are we?
[
Teletraan 1: Warning. Asteroid field. Initiating alternate route.
Optimus Prime: No! Override!
[
Blackarachnia: I got a match on the energy reading. If it's not the AllSpark, it's something just as powerful.
Starscream: I volunteer to deploy and breach the Autobot ship.
Megatron: I didn't spent the last 4 million solar cycles searching the galaxy just so you can get your [grabs Starscream's wing] greasy wings on the Allspark.
Starscream: Ow, ow.
Megatron: I will harness its energy into the ultimate weapon and crush the Autobots for good.
[He lets go of Starscream’s wing, leaving a dent and leaves]
Starscream: Well, I'll get this fixed then.
[The camera sees the Decepticon ship fly past. Inside, Megatron stands as the hanger door opens so he will get to the Ark to get the AllSpark. Starscream arrives]
Megatron: What do you want now, Starscream?
[Starscream puts a detinator on Megatron's back and pats it]
Starscream: Only to wish you luck, my liege.
Megatron: I do not believe in luck.
[Megatron transforms to his jet mode and flies off after the Ark]
Starscream: Neither do I.
[
Optimus Prime: Is that… Megatron?
Bulkhead: You never said he was so big.
Bumblebee: You never said he could fly.
[
Bulkhead: Huh. Guess he wasn’t coming for us.
[
Optimus Prime: [grunts. To Ratchet] Ratchet, seal the hull breech! [to Prowl] Prowl, hold the ship steady. [to Bumblebee and Bulkhead] Bulkhead, Bumblebee, guard the AllSpark! I'll hold off Megatron!
[Bumblebee presses a button which opens the door and Bulkhead runs through]
Bumblebee: But… We're repair bots! We're not programmed for this kind of action.
Optimus Prime: Then consider this an upgrade.
-
Starscream: YES!! Right then. Solemn face, solemn face.
[
-
-
-
Starscream: This is a dark day in Decepticon history. May the legacy of our fallen leader Megatron live in our memory cores for all eternity. As I appoint myself new leader, I solemnly pledge to… [realizes that the other Decepticons have already left] Where's everybody gone?
[The camera sees three pods jetson out of the Decepticon flagship. Starscream sees that the explosion light getting near the ship. Starscream screams as the light engulfs him. The light fades and we see a planet which is blue with land and clouds on it. It is Earth. The camera pans out to see the moon surface. Then, a portal appears and when it disappears, the Ark is seen. Inside, Optimus recovers]
Optimus Prime: Prowl, Ratchet. Everyone alright? [presses a button on the ship console] Bulkhead, Bumblebee, report.
[Then, from the smoke emerges Megatron. He has survived the blast. He grabs Optimus with his hand and pins him to a wall]
Megatron: The AllSpark. Where is it?
[
Megatron: I grow impatient.
[
Teletraan 1: Artificial gravity disabled.
-
-
Optimus Prime: Okay. The decoy was a nice touch, but once again, a little warning would have helped.
[
Optimus Prime: Would it kill you bots to say something like "Heads up" or I don't know. "Watch out" or…
Ratchet: Incoming!
-
[
Megatron: Now bring me the AllSpark and I may spare your miserable Autobot lives.
[
50 years later[]
[
Isaac Sumdac: (voice) Back in the early 20th century, Detroit was known as the Motor City. The automobile manufacturing capital of the world. Today, Detroit is once again the world's leading manufacturer. Not of automobiles, but automatons. Robots. For as we hear at Sumdac systems like to call them, our tireless mechanical partners. Ever reliable, never complaining. No task too mundane or unpleasant. Unencumbered by fears and phobias. Able to survive and withstand extreme environments far beyond the capability of us mere humans.
[
Isaac Sumdac: The robot revolution begins here on a typical Sumdac systems assembly line where we make the latest line of Sumdac robots. Any questions?
-
-
-
-
Isaac Sumdac: Here we are working on the latest development in nanotechnology. Self-replicating, submicroscopic biodionostic robots.
[
Isaac Sumdac: [continues] Designed to fight disease, monitor and repair the human body from within. Not quite the cure of cancer, but these microbots are a major first step in the fusion of the organic and the technological. And quite possibly, the gateway to immortality.

Optimus Prime: Autobots. Transform and roll out!
[
Enter Meliah/TBA[]
[We cut to a young girl named Meliah Messina. She is seen walking through the streets of Detroit, trying to fit into an independent life ever since her parents disappeared and got the Violet Lantern ring. Just then, she almost trips on a crack of the street and accidentally drops her stuff. She picks up her stuff and a few teenagers looked at her]
Random Teenager: Having trouble with your "independent life", Orphan Girl?
Random Teenager #2: Dork.
[The teenagers laughed at her and they walked off]
Meliah Messina: I'm not a dork! I'm a psychic! [growls]
[Suddenly, she sees a monster outside the Sumdac lab]
Meliah Messina: What is that thing? I'd better check it out!
[Meliah's Violet Lantern ring begins to glow]
Meliah Messina: For hearts long lost and full of fright. For those alone in blackest night. Accept our ring and join our fight. Love conquers all with violent light.
[After Meliah recited the oath, she transforms and becomes Lavender Star. She wears princess-themed clothing, including a hot pink tutu with puffy sleeves and white high collar, along with white elbow-length gloves and matching knee-length socks with lavender ribbons, hot pink high heels, and a hot pink tiara with a white star in the center.]
-
Bulkhead: What is that thing? And who is that girl fighting that monster?
Optimus Prime: Whatever it is and who that girl is, they need our help. Autobots, transform!
[
Isaac Sumdac: Sari, that's my daughter!
[She notices Ryan as he dodges the monster's attack]
Meliah Messina: Huh? Who is that guy? Hey, what are you doing out there? It's too dangerous!
[Ryan notices Meliah and then, he sees the monster try to attack him but he jumps out of the way]
Ryan Freestar: My team and I are helping the new robots fight this monster.
Meliah Messina: [sighs] Okay, but just don't put you and your team in any harm.
Ryan Freestar: Sure. Oh, I'm Ryan.
Meliah Messina: My name is Meliah. Nice to meet you.
Ryan Freestar: Same for you, Meliah. [holds his Keyblade] Let us help my team and the new bots fight this monster.
Meliah Messina: Sure thing!
[Ryan and Meliah helps Ryan's team. Ryan activates his handmade jetpack and he flies from the monster's attack]
Meliah Messina: I didn't know you could fly!
Crash Bandicoot: Same thing for me, mate.
Meliah Messina: And you are?
Crash Bandicoot: The name's Crash. Crash Bandicoot.
Meg Griffin: We will do the introductions later, guys. We will take down this monster!
Ryan Freestar: Right!
-
TBA/[]

-
Crash Bandicoot: Okay, mate. I guess you are new here.
Ryan Freestar: I am sure she is. [to Meliah] That's Crash Bandicoot, Meliah.

Start of part 3/[]

???:
Bulkhead: Hey. Good idea.
TBA/[]
Starscream's arrival/[]
[
Optimus Prime: A Decepticon? Here?
Meliah Messina: Who are you?
Starscream: The name is Starscream, exalted leader of the Decepticons.
Bulkhead: I thought that was Megatron.
Starscream: Silence, Autobot filth!
-
Ratchet: You all right, Prime?
Optimus Prime: I'll live.
Starscream: You call yourselves heroes!? You think you defeated the great Megatron? You did no such thing. [lands] I defeated Megatron! I planted a device that overloaded his circuitry. His fate was sealed before he even reach your ship.
Bulkhead: He's lying! Isn't he?
Ryan Freestar: Meliah, I wonder who is this Megatron Starscream speak of.
Meliah Messina: To be honest, I have no clue.
Starscream: Now bring me the AllSpark, Autobot scum!
Optimus Prime: I have no idea what you're talking about.
Starscream: Really? Then I'll just have to destroy these unique creatures for no good reason.
[
Sari Sumdac: [gasps]
-
-
-
Starscream: Let go, Autobot!
Optimus Prime: Never! The AllSpark is life!
Starscream: Then let it end yours!
Sari revives Optimus Prime with her key/[]
-
-
Sari Sumdac: Optimus?
Meliah Messina: Are you okay?
[
Optimus Prime: [weakly] So this… is what it feels like… to be a hero.
[He goes offline and his colors fade like 86 Optimus Prime. Ratchet checks for his energy signature and Optimus' energy signature flatlined]
Ratchet: There's nothing we can do now. His spark's extinguished.
-
-
-
Prowl: He went saving the AllSpark. That's what matters.
Sari Sumdac: No, he can't be gone! He can't!
Bulkhead: I don't think that leaking thing's gonna help you get what you want.
Sari Sumdac: But I know something that can.
[
Bumblebee: Sari, there are some things that can't be fixed. Even by your key.
[Sari plugs her key into the keyhole]
Sari Sumdac: Prime didn't give up, and neither will I!
-
Optimus Prime: Is this… the Well of AllSparks?
Sari Sumdac: No, it's Detroit.
Ryan Freestar: Wow… I am amazed by how Sari's key heal Optimus.
Meliah Messina: Yeah, me too.
Sci-Ryan: Same here, Mel. Same here.
[
Bulkhead: Hey. I thought you only did that leaking thing when you're sad.
Sari Sumdac: You guys have so much to learn about humans.
Ryan Freestar: Yeah. Bikejack and I agree with you, Sari. I am proud you revived Optimus. [hugs Sari] My sister.
-

-
News reporter: As Detroit recovers from this devastating clash of the titans, the Autobots prove themselves even greater heroes than first imagined, not only saving the city and perhaps the world from the Decepticon menace, but repairing damaged structures and damaged lives with their reassuring presence.
Bumblebee: Fixing bridges. Isn't where we started out?
[Meanwhile, Isaac is watching the news]
News reporter: Speaking for a grateful city, this reporter can only offer two words to our giant cybernetic protectors. Thank you.
[Isaac turns off the TV and sighs]
Isaac Sumdac: I wouldn’t know where to begin thanking them.
[He gets off his chair and goes to a door]
Isaac Sumdac: But, if they learn the truth behind my robotics empire, will they ever forgive me?
[He exits his lab and the door closes behind him. The camera pans to see the head of Megatron. And when the scene fades, a red circle is still glowing]
Epilogue:[]
[Meanwhile, at the Autobot Earth Base
Ryan Freestar: Okay. Starscream mentioned Megatron.
Colten Freestar: To be honest, brother. I haven’t the foggiest like Meliah.
Ernest Penfold: Cor. It must be heavy for Optimus.
Sci-Ryan: Yeah. [stammers] Megatron, Penfold. Not megaton.
Meliah Messina: Yeah, I don't know who Megatron is. Optimus, who is Megatron?
Ryan Freestar: Megatron is the leader of the Decepticons and the one Starscream mentioned when the bomb killed him.
Optimus Prime: I guess you know about Megatron.
Amanda Tyson: Oh my. And it is a good thing you got rid of him on your ship.
Danger Mouse: So, this Megatron is a villain like Baron Greenback.
Crash Bandicoot: And Dr. Neo Cortex.
Sir Daniel Fortesque: This Megatron sounds like bad news.
Sci-Ryan: You don't know the half of it, Sir Dan. [looks at Meliah] It appears that Meliah is a psychic.
Bertram T. Garrison: Yeah. An aura read with a Violet ring. Maybe she could show Ryan what powers she have.
Meliah Messina: A Violet Lantern ring to be exact. And you're right, Sci-Ryan. I'm from a family of psychics, my family has psychic powers, including me. Before I got this Violet Lantern ring 13 years ago, I was graduating middle school before my 14th birthday. And after I graduated middle school and a few weeks later after my 14th birthday. I was asking my parents if I'm going to high school next, but my parents weren't around, and I realized that they were gone. I burst into tears and ran out of the house, and I was nothing but homeless and didn't get a chance to go to high school after my 14th birthday. Until, one of the Violet Lantern Corps gave me this Violet Lantern ring, and I've decided to use it for good and help conquer my loneliness. That was the last time I saw my parents, 13 years ago.
Matau T. Garrison: Same. Since we know Megatron, Sari would join Master Ryan's team. And Meliah, you can live with Master Ryan in a guest room as a guest.
Trio Darkle: That would be a good idea since Ryan met her.
Sonant Nightfall: True. And we can sing and fight enemies too. It's like we helped the Autobots make that monster nano-more. [laughs]
Sci-Ryan: I know. [comforts Meliah] And I am sorry for your loss, Meliah.
Cody Starshooter: Same here. At least my brother is happy his sister is with him.
Embeth Sunlight: Yeah. And if Sari can join, maybe she can have my spot as a member. Because Sari is Ryan's sister.
Ryan Freestar: Yeah, it would be cool since I got my team. Wait. I got it. What if Sari can join my team? You know, Embeth, it is a great idea.
