Sonic and Sally (transcript)

This is the English transcript of the SatAM episode Sonic and Sally.

---

[It is night in Robotropolis, with a dark-red sky. A shuttle swatbot flies by. Elsewhere in Robotropolis, Sonic, Sally Acorn and Bunnie Rabbot are standing in a fog, which causes Bunnie to cough.]

Bunnie: Oh! Don't you just love all this fresh air?

Sonic: Yeah, about as much as I love Robuttnik.

[Sally works on NICOLE while Bunnie rummages through Sonic's backpack.]

Sally: Arm cannisters, NICOLE.

NICOLE: Arming, Sally.

[Bunnie places a cannister in Sonic's backpack, which already has 3. They all light up.]

NICOLE: Cannisters armed.

Bunnie: You're all loaded, sugar-hog.

Sonic: Cool, synchronize the ole' watches.

[Sonic, Sally and Bunnie look at their watches and put their arms out, activating a timer together.]

Sonic: Okay, meet you at the usual. If anybody's late, jam back to Knothole. Check?

Bunnie/Sally: Check.

[Bunnie runs off.]

Bunnie: Good luck, y'all!

Sonic/Sally: Let's do it, to it.

[They share a secret handshake and give a thumbs up.]

[At a Robotropolis factory, Swatbots guard an immense entrance. Crane machinery is moving inside. Nearby, behind a pile of scrap metal, Sonic does some sleuthing. The Swatbots are accompanied by security cameras at the entrance.]

Sonic: Must've forgot the welcome mat. Gotta find another way in.

[He looks around and sees a large ship entering a port at the top of the factory. Sonic grabs a piece of metal and throws it at the security camera, destroying it. The Swatbots notice and vacate the entrance to investigate, giving Sonic time to enter the area.]

Sonic: Juice time!

[He runs up the side of the building beside the entrance and enters the port, which is full of garbage. He stops as he hits an edge and looks down at a vat of a hot liquid. Another ship comes and pushes the garbage further into the port and toward the edge.]

Sonic: What?! Bad move, hedgehog! Mondo bad move!

[The scrap metal pushes Sonic with it as parts of the scrap pile fall into the vat of hot liquid.]

Sonic: I'm outta here!

[Before he falls over the edge, he jumps at a bucket that is hanging over the vat, hanging onto a rope suspending it. A crane, which is holding the bucket and rope, moves aside with Sonic in tow. Below, Sonic sees a conveyor belt assembly line for Swatbots.]

[Back outside in Robotropolis, Bunnie stops running at a red panel. She looks around and sees a shuttle swatbot approach. She ducks, but the shuttle computer in the shuttle detects her.]

Swatbot: Alert, Alert. Organic lifeform detected.

[The Swatbot slaps the control panel.]

Swatbot: Don't bother. Substation electricity interferes with heat sensor. Ignore.

[The shuttle continues on as Bunnie stands up and looks. She runs back to the red panel, ripping it open with her roboticized arm. She looks back at her watch.]

Bunnie: 19...18...17...

[In the factory, Sonic switches ropes and slides to the ground. He rushes aside to cover as a yellow shuttle bot passes by. He looks at his watch.]

Sonic: 8...7...6...

[Outside, Sally looks at her watch as well as a shuttle bot flies behind her.]

Sally: 5...4...3...

[Bunnie is holding onto a switch in the panel.]

Bunnie: 2...1...Bingo!

[She pulls down the switch, shutting down the Swatbot factory. In the factory, Sonic treads slowly, then pulling out two of the cannisters, which are beeping. He puts them down.]

Sonic: Chao!

[Sonic charges up and rushes away. Outside, Sally, using the holographic map of Robotropolis in NICOLE (retrieved from a computer in "Sonic Boom") watches Sonic's progress.]

Sally: Come on Sonic...get outta there.

[The shuttlebot approaches behind Sally and fires a laser at her. She gasps as it narrowly misses her, packing up NICOLE and running away.]

[In the factory, Sonic runs away as two yellow shuttle bots chase after him, firing lasers. Sonic eludes them by going a level above.]

Sonic: Yo, botbutts! Looks like you could use a shout!

[Holding up a bucket of scrap metal by a rope, Sonic lets go, dropping the metal on the bots, trapping them. He jumps down beside the pile of scrap he made and dashes off, dropping a cannister behind him. More yellow shuttle bots arrive and fire on Sonic as he tries to elude them through various quick movements. He stops as he sees more shuttle bots approaching from ahead, he goes back but is stopped by Swatbots, he returns ahead and stops.]

Sonic: Whoa! This dump is getting crowded!

[He looks around and tries to dash ahead, but stops before hitting a shuttle bot. He jumps upwards as the Swatbot from behind fires a missile, causing the shuttle bots to jump aside to miss it. As Sonic falls back down, he sees the missile returning and dashes back. He takes out a power ring.]

Sonic: Warp time!

[Just as the missile approaches Sonic, the power ring makes him increase his speed exponentially, leaving a trail of fire. He escapes the factory at high speed as Sally watches on. She takes out NICOLE.]

Sally: NICOLE, prepare for...

Swatbot: Raise your hands, prisoner.

[Two Swatbots aim their weapons at Sally...]

[In Knothole Village, Bunnie arrives through the slide chute and lands in a pile of hay. She shakes the excess hay off and grabs her head.]

Bunnie: Whoo-whee, I feel like I've been dragged through a knothole...so to speak.

Rotor: Hey, did you guys nail a Swatbot factory?

[Rotor and Antoine are standing beside the large hay stack that Bunnie landed in.]

Bunnie: Well, honey, I don't know.

[She slides down to beside the duo.]

Bunnie: I had to make a very unladylike retreat.

[Antoine helps her off the ground.]

Bunnie: Thanks, sugar.

[He pulls too hard, pulling her robotic arm off.]

Bunnie: Oh! Oh my stars! I'm just falling apart!

[Rotor looks around.]

Rotor: Where's Sonic and Sally?

Bunnie: Well the last time I saw, they were...

Sonic: Cannonbaaaaaall!

[Sonic arrives through the chute in a spindash. Everybody runs away as he lands in the hay stack, causing it to fall apart.]

Sonic: It was seismic! Talk about fireworks, right Bunnie?

[Bunnie, Rotor and Antoine brush off the hay on their bodies from Sonic's fall into the stack, Bunnie has her robotic arm back. Sonic looks around.]

Sonic: Where's Sal?

Bunnie: She wasn't at the meeting place, so I came on back.

Sonic: I gotta go back!

[As Sonic charges up, Bunnie grabs his arm.]

Bunnie: Sonic, wait! You need the power ring.

[In Robotropolis, a thunderstorm has started as thunder is heard. A lightning bolt strikes near Robotnik's lair.]

Robotnik: I know the hedgehog will come for you, dear girl...

[Sally is in a glass prison tube with a metallic copy beside her in Robotnik's control room. Robotnik is sitting in his chair with Cluck.]

Robotnik: ...and when he does, I have a surprise.

Snively: Here it is, Dr. Robotnik, enough memory to duplicate Human complexity.

[Snively holds up a chip.]

Robotnik: Excellent, Snively. Install it.

[Snively opens up a panel in the back of the robot (Robo-Sally) and installs the chip. A display near Sally's prison activates, showing Robotnik.]

Robotnik: I don't suppose you'd tell me the location of Knothole?

Sally: Suure, I will. When you get a life!

[Robotnik presses a series of buttons on his chair. The Robo-Sally is active and growling, then speaks in Sally's voice.]

Robo-Sally: "When you get a life!"

[Sally gasps at hearing her own voice. Snively presses a button on Robo-Sally and it starts walking forward into a tube similar to Sally's. Sally gasps in fear as a scan occurs around her body. The Robo-Sally suddenly lights up and takes the same form as Sally. They both look at each other.]

Sally: *To Robotnik* Sonic is too smart to be fooled by a robot.

[Robotnik is viewing Sally from a monitor on his chair.]

Sally: Even a good one.

Robotnik: Oh, but we're not finished, Princess. We need to add your spark of personality.

[He presses another button on his chair as the glass tube ascents and a halo of purple energy surrounds Sally's head. A halo of purple energy also surrounds Robo-Sally's head.]

[It is day in Knothole. Sonic, Tails and Rotor are standing at the edge of a pond, Sonic walking around impatiently as Tails and Rotor look into the pond. Sonic walks up to the two and taps his feet on the ground.]

Sonic: That's it! I'm outta here!

[He charges up, but Rotor grabs him before he can leave. He holds him off the ground so he can't leave.]

Rotor: Wait, Sonic! You can't go without a ring.

Sonic: Sal's in mondo-trouble, and I'm going, ring or no ring!

Tails: Sonic! A ring's coming!

[He points at the pond as Rotor lets go of Sonic. He walks over and looks, patting his feet on the ground.]

Sonic: Bout time.

[The water bubbles slightly as a ring ascends from the water. Tails jumps on an old log over the pond and snatches it.]

Tails: I got it!

[He loses his grip on the log and falls, but Rotor catches him before he hits the water. Sonic grabs the ring from Tails.]

Sonic: Gotta juice and cut it loose!

[Sonic charges up, and falls. He tries again and dashes away, causing Tails and Rotor to fall over in his wake.]

[In Robotnik's lair, Sally is in one of his jail cells, surrounded by bars of blue energy. She groans as she wakes up and touches on the bars of energy.]

Sally: OUCH!

[She looks past the bars to see a display with Robotnik.]

Robotnik: Oh, cheer up, Princess. I've sent you a visitor!

[Robo-Sally is outside the jail cell.]

Robo-Sally: Hi! I'm Sally, oh, don't get up! I am a Princess but out in the Great Forest, titles are meaningless.

[Sally looks on, distraught at the sight and sound of her copy.]

[Elsewhere, in Robotropolis, a shuttle bot flies by. Sonic, hiding behind some scrap metal, pops out. He looks aside as he hears some mechanical whirring, and sees a security camera right beside him. He grabs a rock and destroys it.]

[Back in Robotnik's control room.]

Robotnik: Activate all exterior hedgehog traps.

Snively: But I thought you 'wanted' him to get in?

Robotnik: Yeees, but we can't make it too easy.

[Outside, Sonic is dashing away as a shuttle bot fires its laser at him. He enters a narrow alley, but ends up at a dead-end. He turns around to see the bot approaching, still firing at him. Sonic panics and dashes up the wall. The shuttle can't react in time and slams into the wall, destroying it. Sonic continues dashing up a building, which is equipped with security cameras. As Sonic enters a hatch into the building, Robotnik watches on. He turns to the monitor on his chair and calls up Snively.]

Robotnik: Recall off Swatbots. Let the hedgehog in.

[Sonic exits a floor hatch into a large corridor in the lair.]

Sonic: Huh, must be my lucky day.

[He dashes down the corridor, passing by a monitor with Sally on it. He goes back and looks at the monitor.]

Sonic: Sal!

[He continues on with determination. He ends up at a ramp, which takes him down to the jail area. He stops at a corner as he sees two Swatbots on guard. He turns aside and presses a button, which opens up a glass door with a cup of water in it. He takes the cup and spills the water on the ground. He goes back to the corner and takes the cup, using it to sound like Robotnik.]

Sonic: Attention Swatbots, this is Doctor Robotnik, report to the ward room immediately.

[The Swatbots fall for the trick and leave the area. After they leave, he dashes over and finds Sally in a cell.]

Sonic: Yo Sal, we're gonna blow this pop stand!

[He walks over to the control panel for the cell. He takes out the cup again to impersonate Robotnik.]

Sonic: Open cell number 54.

Computer: Voice print approved. Hand-print necessary for certification.

Sonic: Open up this cell or I'll rip out your electronic brain!

Computer: Certification unnecessary. You are Robotnik.

[The cell door opens and Sally runs out, hugging Sonic. They both dash out. Robotnik watches this from surveillance.]

Robotnik: Ah, true love. Hurry home little hedgehog, hurry home.

[Outside, Sonic is carrying Sally away to safety.]

Sonic: Hang tight, Sal, clear juicing ahead.

[They reach an abandoned building and stop. He looks outside a window and ducks with Sally as a shuttle bot flies by.]

Sonic: You okay?

Sally: Fine.

[She sits close to him and grasps his arm.]

Sally: Coming back to rescue me was very brave, Sonic.

[Sonic sits for a second, thinking of what she said, then stands up.]

Sonic: Hey, no biggie. It's in the hero's job description.

[Still grasping his arm, Sally pulls Sonic toward her and kisses him. He smiles and takes her to continue on. Continuing through Robotropolis, a shuttle bot discovers them and enters a pursuit.]

Sonic: Hang on, Sal. Time to light it up!

[He reaches into his backpack and takes out a power ring. Holding it up, just as the shuttle bot swoops down to catch them, he speeds up. Robotnik continues to watch on.]

Robotnik: Yes, hedgehog, the faster, the better!

[He presses a button on his chair that brings up Snively on one of the main displays.]

Snively: Ready to roboticize, sir.

Robotnik: Activate!

[Sally is back in her glass prison tube, with Snively at a long console with Robotnik on the monitor. Snively activates the roboticizer, which lights up numerous purple halos around Sally.]

Robotnik: Tomorrow, Knothole will be a wasteland and all the Freedom Fighters, my loyal servants.

[Robotnik's display deactivates suddenly as Cluck clucks.]

Robotnik: What is this? Snively?!

[In Snively's area, many of the electronics are sparking.]

Snively: The system's overloaded, sir, I better turn off the...

[Snively's console explodes, forcing him away, while Sally tries to escape from the tube. He coughs from the smoke. Robotnik's displays are still not working but sound communication is.]

Snively: The video is gone, sir!

Sonic: *Communication* Here we are, Sal, home sweet Knothole.

Robotnik: The communication system works, we can still monitor his every move.
