Prof. Sumdac quotes from Transformers: Animated

Sari

What's that? (her key, powered by an AllSpark fragment, connects to the door's electronic lock.) Whoa, check that out!

Access denied. (Sparks fly) Access...access granted.

(yawning) No, no, Sari, you know that no one, not even you, is allowed in my private lab. Rules are rules.

Sari

Good morning to you too, Dad. I brought you a cup of tea.

Oh, thank you, thank you, but I am not thirsty. (looks away as he speaks, but quickly downs the whole cup)

Sari

Hmm...when was the last time you ate?

(puts the cup down) What is today?

Sari

(chuckles) Let's get you some breakfast.

Oh, but Sari, I am not hungry. (stomach growls) Well, perhaps just an apple...and a banana. Better make that a whole fruit salad. (Sari leads him out of his lab and down the hall, his voice fading.) and waffles...with bacon...and...a cheese omelette...

Autobot...mega...mega...mega...mega...me-e-e-ega...I...am...Megatron...mega...mega...mega...mega...

Megatron

What...where am I? (sees his disembodied hand and realizes he can't move) Where is my body!? How long have I been offline? (a clip from "Transform and Roll Out, Part 2" is on screen.) What kind of antiquated system am I hooked into?!

Starscream

I DEFEATED MEGATRON! I planted the device that overloaded his circuitry! His fate was sealed before he even reached your ship!

Megatron

(furiously) STARSCREAAAAM?!? (sparks fly out and blow out the lights above his head) They don't even know I'm alive. (another clip is shown on the AllSpark) This cannot be happening...the AllSpark finally within my reach...and I have no hands to grasp it!

Megatron

Hmm...perhaps I'm not as immobile as I thought. (the crane grabs a tiny robot on the work desk and moves it to Megatron's face.) There may be more than one way to locate the AllSpark...and destroy all who dare oppose me! (the tiny robot's eye flickers to life)

Prometheus, why are you doing this?

Meltdown

Because you're a fraud!

Meltdown

I am smarter, better-looking, and more educated than you, and yet, everything you touch turns to gold! While everything I touch...

Meltdown

Just...look at me. I'm a freak! But I refuse to be beaten by some simpering nerd who merely got lucky!

Oh dear, this is all my fault!

Sari

What? It's not like you built Megatron in your lab or anything. You built Megatron in your lab!!

Sari

See guys? I knew all along my dad couldn't have betrayed us. He's as honest and trustworthy as they come. Huh!?

Sari we need to talk.

Sari

Okay. I'm waiting.

Yes, well...

Sari

Still waiting.

It is complicated.

Sari

"Hey, Sari. Guess what. You're a robot." How complicated is that!!? Do you know why there's no record of your birth? Because you weren't born. You were built!

You're right. I should have told you long ago. But the truth is, I don't know where you came from. You see, some years ago, I saw a strange flash of light coming from my laboratory. I've never seen anything like it. A little body, like liquid metal. I touched and got quite a shock. When I came too, you were just there.

Sari

Oh, please. Why didn't you tell me you found me a in a cabbage pack of the stork brought me?

I wish I knew more of how you came into being. I just don't know.

Prowl

I may be able to shed some light on this. After reviewing as much data as I could, I believe what you had in your laboratory was a protoform.

What's a protoform?

Optimus Prime

Protoforms are the building blocks of all life on Cybertron.

Prowl

I think some of Professor Sumdac's DNA must have accidentally merged with the protoform. And Sari the result.

Sari

So...I'm like part Cybertronian? Cool! We're like cousins.

Prowl

But is still doesn't explain how a protoform ended up in Sumdac's lab.

Sari

Guys I fixed it. Guys it's done. Guys!!

What!?

Sari

Now that I have your attention.

Optimus Prime

Sari, how did you know what to do?

Sari

I don't know. I just kind of...did.

Sari

I can fix it!

That will not necessary now.

Sari

Listen to me, Dad! I know stuff! And I know why I know stuff! That time I upgraded myself with my Key, I must have upgraded my processor or my brain or whatever! So don't tell me what I can and can't do!

Ratchet

I'm tellin' you this thing will never fly!

Sari

You're right. You need to a remarkable to the fuel line.

Ratchet

I expect the rocket boosters told you that?

Sari

Pretty much.

don't argue with her.

Ratchet

I'm not gonna argue.

Sari

Dad, I just want you to know: you're the best father anybody could ask for.

That is very sweet, Sari. But why are you...You think you are going with them? To the moon!?

Sari

Dad, please. I can't explain it. But something tells me I need to go. I love you, Dad.

But how will you breathe?
