[Tech's green triangle appears on the screen, then the scene changes to the Loonatics Tower.]
Give us the scoop on this hard hat, Tech.
TTech
[contains the Bio-Tech Parasite inside a small dome] Well, to put it simply, it's an extraterrestrial Bio-Tech Symons Parasite that enables the host with thought control levitation powers.
To put it simpler, a thingamajig.
Mmm-hmm. But, pizza guy said he couldn't control his actions.
TTech
That's right. Once the "thingamajig" attached, it took over his free will and acted only on his deepest, darkest desires.
[munches on some pizza] And those deep dark desires scored us plenty of free eats for saving pizza guy's boss.
[Slam eats two pizza boxes. Duck looks on in annoyance.]
At least take them out of the box first!
TTech
[to Ace] He's lucky you blasted it off when you did, or it would've stuck to him permanently until it decided to leave on its own.
[Just then, Rev appears, zooming in with his eyes glowing red, dusting, polishing and tidying the room for important visitors he invited over.]
A window there. Anybody else run the dishwasher?!
Rev, what's the rush? Dig in.
[gives Lexi a plate and napkin] Sorry. Can't. No time. Gotta clean up. Gotta get organized. [dusts Ace's chest and brushes Tech's teeth] Gotta make HQ ready for visitors, whom I forgot to mention I invited, and are coming out of town, and they will be here any second. [wipes Slam's chin and dusts Duck's pizza, then he hears the doorbell ring, as if on cue.] Which would be this second! [runs off, dropping the duster onto Duck's pizza. He then greets the visitors at the door, which turns out to be his family. His father is named Ralph Runner, his mother is named Harriet Runner, and his brother is named Rip Runner.] Mom! Pop!
There he is! How's that son of mine? It's so good to see you after such a long, long while of not seeing him and now finally seeing him in his new digs.
AHHH! My brain is melting! There's a whole family of them! I'm checking into a hotel!
Uh, folks, I think you need to slow down just a little for their sakes, okay?
That old scrap heap? He's been working on that thing forever.
No sweat, Rev. Spend some time with the family. If any end of the world crisis comes up, we'll give you a buzz.
[Rev's red triangle appears on the screen, then we go to the Robo Amigo factory in the desert.]
RRRip Runner
Adults don't need a Robo Amigo. Pa should sell it to kids.
RRRalph Runner
[Pats Rip's head] Rip, stop bothering your brother. Can't you see he's doing important work? [Looks to Rev] Now, how's my genius with a wrench doing?
RRobo
I can make anything fun.
[Sigh] Well, still a few bugs technically-wise, but marketing-wise how about we sell him to kids instead of adults?
Why th-th-th-th-that's brilliant!
RipHey, what am I? Invisible?
Oh, yeah, making toys for rugrats. What are you, a crime fighter or one of Santa's elves?
I Know its taking Up my Time But Helping The Family Business Is So Important to Pa And I'm a Little too Tall to Be an Elf But I promise I'll Be with You Guys Ready to fight evildoers Anywhere Anytime Anyhow!
Hey, don't sweat it, Rev.
I'll Never Forget For Being So Understanding. Even Though I Cannot Promise I'll forgive You Cause You'll Never Know When get Whack On the Head and Forget Everything Even Forgetting about forgetting.
Yeah, that's a great story, but we oughta get Handsome here in the cell.
[They leave to take the monster to his prison cell. But, just as Rev was about to follow his teammates, he hears crying from the other side. It's coming from a little girl who is being bullied and terrorized by a malfunctioning Robo-Amigo, who is about to take her plush doll's head off, much to her horror and distraught and to Rev's shock. He rushes to her aid.]
[Little does Rev and the girl know, Robo Amigo is being controlled by a Bio-Tech possessed Rip, as part of his revenge plan.]
Rip
I'll bet that concentrating my new powers into Robo Amigo's central processor, I can control all of them at once!
[He laughs evilly. The news about Robo Amigo soon spreads all around Acmetropolis, as well as the Runner residence.]
Ah, thanks, Tech. If you weren't a coyote, and a guy, I'd kiss you!
TTech
Then lucky for me, I'm both. [The scene changes back to the Runner residence where the two Loonatics are trying to figure out how to fix Robo Amigo.] Hmm... Sensors, chips and security interface all checks out fine. Maybe the glitch is in the remote.
[He presses the button on the remote, but Robo Amigo comes to life by itself and flies around the two anthros. It then headbutts into Tech, sending him over the cliff.]
[frantically] Don't let it go over the... [grabs Robo Amigo] ...cliff.
[Too late. Tech falls down the cliff for the third time, with his arms crossed in annoyance. Rev looks on in worry for the coyote and glances at Robo Amigo, but is then relieved to see Tech come back up again by using his rocket boots.]
TTech
I came prepared this time.
Great, Tech, but what about Robo Amigo? If it's not an internal problem, then what's flipping it out?
TTech
Something external. Robo Amigo's being controlled by someone or something on the outside.
[And he's right. Robo Amigo escapes Rev's grasp and lifts itself up in the air beside the red Loonatic's brother.]
Rip
And that would be me, bro.
[shocked and horrified at seeing his younger brother possessed by the Bio-Tech Parasite] Rip?! Is that you?
Rip
How does it feel to be a super failure, Rev?
TTech
He can't help himself! He's possessed by the Bio-Tech Parasite! It's making him act out on his deepest, darkest feelings!
Rip
Time to show Pop who's top bird. I've discovered what I'm super at: destroying things! And there's no better way to begin my new career choice than with the biggest target of all: Acmetropolis!
[He takes off into Acmetropolis with Robo Amigo in his possession while he laughs maniacally as Rev and Tech watch in horror. The screen fades to black, then the scene changes back to Acmetropolis itself, where a car is thrown into a building and lands on the ground, damaged as Ace and Lexi leap out of the way.]
Rip
People of Acmetropolis, fear for your lives! [Rev appears.] The Rip is on a tear! [laughs evilly] Ha! I've already got a signature taunt.
I'm really sorry about everything, but I don't see my family very often and when I do see-
[interrupts] Hey, it's OK, Rev. We all have family problems sometimes.
TTech
[lands next to his teammates] We've got even bigger problems. When Rip snatched the Parasite, he also took my Molecular Reconstructor.
[sarcastically] So, what's he gonna do? Make Robo Amigo "Tiny-Amigo"?
TTech
[off-screen] No, quite the opposite.
[Sure enough, Rip uses Tech's stolen Molecular Reconstructor to enlarge Robo Amigo into "Giant Amigo" and the mega-sized possessed robot lands on the ground while people run away screaming in fear for their lives as they try to escape Rip's Amigo-style reign of terror. Robo Amigo then starts to roam around the city and cause damage to Acmetropolis.]
RARobo-Amigo
Come on, people! Let's have some fun!
Rip
Pop says I have no ambition. How's that for thinking big? [laughs evilly]
RARobo-Amigo
[wrecks a building] Destroying the city is fun!
Rip
Fleeing, panic, screaming! It's good to finally be noticed!
RARobo-Amigo
Come back! Don't you wanna play?
