Otto & Sam -- "The Dream Team Returns -- Part 2" As the deep pit begins to fill with sleep gas, Otto and Starlight shoot laser beams out of their eyes in an attempt to cut a way through, but the steel lining surrounding them on all four walls is too strong. DJ and Hunter use their hand lasers on the walls with the same results. The Gila Monster pounds the walls with his fists, but they won't even dent. GILA MONSTER (angry): We gotta git outta here fast! OTTO (sternly): If I may, Hunter, I have a suggestion. HUNTER (sternly): Forget the protocol, Otto, just do it! OTTO (sternly): Alright, the metal walls of this pit are too thick, but the metal door of this pit may be thinner. Samantha and Molly, use the anit-gravity abilities in your collars to make all of us float slowly upward. DJ, Hunter, Princess, use your hand lasers on the trap door. Exile, you, Starlight and I will use our eye lasers on it as we rise. Hurry! This gas is beginning to have an effect on...us.... Molly and Samantha close their eyes and concentrate, soon all of the Road Rovers, Starlight and the Gila Monster are floats towards the sealed trap door. On cue, all of them fire their lasers and quickly cut a large circular 'hole' in the trap door. The Gila Monster grabs the cut piece and pushes it through as the others 'rise' out of the pit. Within a minute, the entire group has their 'feet' back on solid ground. HUNTER (relieved): Whoa! Am I ever glad to be out of that trap! COLLEEN (nods): Too bloomin' confining for me! EXILE (nods): Da, dat place is worse dan a Moscow apartment! HUNTER (looks around): We need a way to sneak into that lab and grab the Dream Team before they start making bionic Cano-Mutants. OTTO (smiles): Hunter, if I may suggest, I do believe I have a possible solution! Meanwhile, inside of their fortress, Parvo and Groomer laugh in glee as they see a green light flashing on their control panel. PARVO (coughs): Groomer, do you know what that flashing light means? GROOMER (nods): I do, my General! Our special trap has been sprung! PARVO (coughs more): Yes! I knew the Road Rovers would come! That pit is lined with the strongest steel known to man, and with the automatic sleep gas dispenser, there's no escape! No teleportation, no way to climb out or dig their way free! GROOMER (points at a monitor): My general, those Cano-Mutants you sent out are returning! PARVO (coughs): Let them back in.... (cough).... longine! As Groomer hands Parvo a longine, eleven Cano-Mutants walk into the complex and over to where Parvo is seated. PARVO (confused): What's the matter with you? Go back to your quarters until I call for you (points) down that hallway over there! Do I have to do ALL the thinking around here? As the Cano-Mutants nod and walk slowly down the hallway, Parvo and Groomer contact their new 'partners' in their lab. PARVO (looks at Julie and Phillip in monitor): Julie! Phillip! I want a report on your progress! JULIE (turns to camera): General Parvo, we're almost ready to begin! This mutt we found wondering outside will do nicely! PHILLIP (turns to camera): I have all of the bionic parts and implants ready, all we need to do is the surgery! PARVO (slams fist down): I want results, SOON! Parvo out. When Parvo has finished talking to them, Julie and Phillip turn to their 'patient', a large German Shepard dog, and prepare to begin the surgery. JULIE (looks at Phillip): Phil, doesn't it bother you that we're going to be removing healthy bones and living tissue from a living creature? PHILLIP (shakes head): NOPE! JULIE (laughs): Me either! Let's get started! The Cano-Mutants continue to walk down the hallway towards the labratory. CANO-MUTANT (Hunter's voice): Ok, Otto, Starlight, turn your imagine projectors off now. Instantly, the 'illusion' ends to reveal Hunter, Colleen, Shag, Exile, Blitz, Otto, Samantha, DJ, Molly and Starlight. OTTO (points to door): This is where the scientists are, and they have a canine with them. As the two evil scientists put on surgerical masks and anxiously reach for scalpels to cut with, Colleen kicks the lab door open. Colleen, Samantha and Blitz are the first Rovers to enter the lab. COLLEEN (points): You two are goin' back to the clink! BLITZ (smiles): I get to bite your tooschies! Samantha stares at the huge German Shepard on the operating table. The dog looks very similiar to Otto in his canine form. She sees the two masked scientists ready to cut him open, her mind races back to a few months ago when two different evil scientists had trapped Otto and nearly succeeded in taking him apart. She remembered the angry and sheer terror she felt that day. Overcome with emotion, she 'loses it'. SAMANTHA (growling loudly): NO YOU DON'T!!! Samantha then pounces upon the two startled scientists, attacking like a vicious attack dog. The shouts and screams of the two 'Dream Teamers" fill the air as the others arrive on the scene. Even Muzzle turns his head and closes his eyes upon seeing Samantha in action. COLLEEN (turns head): Ewwwww. GROSS!!!! HUNTER (surprised): WHOA!!! That's gotta hurt! BLITZ (angry): HEY! Hiney biting is MY department! DJ (turns head away): I never knew she could fight like that! (turns to Molly): Did she ever fight like that at home? MOLLY (mouth gaping open): NOT LIKE THAT! SHAG (shocked): Ruh Raid Rit! HUNTER (turns head): Those two will need more than a first aid kit, Shag! GILA MONSTER (big grin): Now THAT'S what I call violence! Wish I had a video camera with me! PRINCESS (turns head): Seems very messy to me.... OTTO (sternly): I better stop her! In a flash, Otto grabs his wife's arms and holds them behind her back. Samantha continues to growl, bark and struggle. After a few seconds, she calms down and looks rather embarrassed. SAMANTHA (looks at the two scientists, panting hard): Oh dear...... OTTO (sternly): What got into you, Sam? Samantha can only hug Otto and begin crying. Hunter and the others walk slowly towards Julie and Phillip, who are shaking like leafs and babbling nonsense. JULIE (turns head): STAY AWAY FROM ME!!!! PHILLIP (turns head): I NEVER WANT TO SEE ANOTHER DOG AS LONG AS I LIVE!!! HUNTER (turns to Starlight): Starlight, can you teleport us outta here? STARLIGHT (shakes head): There's a force field surrounding the complex. we either need to leave here the way we came, or deactivate the force field. HUNTER (nods): Gotcha! Can you locate it with your ..... STARLIGHT (smiles): Already have, Hunter! The force field generator is located in the room on the other end of this hallway, the one we passed through when we were all disguised at Cano-Mutants! HUNTER (turns to the others): Ok, Otto, Sam, you two stay here while the rest of us shut down the force field. All of the Rovers howl in unison. Starlight once again activates the image projector in her internal circuitry, making all of them appear to be Cano-Mutants once more. They slowly walk back to the main control center where Parvo and Groomer are still talking. PARVO (laughs): I'll let Julie and Phillip build me an entire army of bionic dogs! Then I'll dispose of them! GROOMER (laughs): I like your style, my General! PARVO (sees Cano-Mutants): HEY! I thought I told you mutants to return to your barracks! GROOMER (shocked): General! Look! The 'image' of the Cano-Mutants is slowly fading away. STARLIGHT (whispers to Hunter): My image projector is short circuiting, I can't maintain the illusion. PARVO (angry): ROAD ROVERS!! Groomer pushes a button on the wall, a steel panel moves upward and reveals an entire squadron of Cano-Mutants. GROOMER (points): Get them! The Cano-Mutants run towards the Road Rovers. Molly and Hunter use their super speed to instantly 'disarm' all of them. DJ knocks out several of them with punches, Exile freezing three of them instantly. Blitz chases sereval of them shouting "time to bite the tooschies." The Gila Monster clobbers several with his 2 x 4. Shag and Colleen decide to release Muzzle, this effectively 'takes care' of the rest of the Cano-Mutants. The few that aren't unconscience run away. Parvo and Groomer have climbed up a staircase and are standing behind a huge laser cannon. PARVO (shouts): NOW GROOMER!! GROOMER (reaches for the control buttons): EAT LASER, ROVERS! Before Groomer's fingers reach the control panel, Princess instantly 'freezes time.' She runs up to the laser cannon and quickly rewires it to explode. She returns to the Rovers just as time 'restarts.' Groomer pushes the firing button and the laser cannon explodes in a plume of smoke and electrical sparks. HUNTER (confused): I would not have predicted this! No way! PRINCESS (giggles): It's a matter of timing, Hunter! STARLIGHT (runs to a control panel): Here's the force field generator! EXILE (happy): Greatski! Can you turn it off? Starlight turns around and then gives the machine a powerful 'mule kick' with both hind legs. The force of the 'blow' smashs the machine into a pile of spark emitting metal and wires. EXILE (nods): Dat answers MY question! BLITZ (looking around): HEY! Where's Parvo and Groomer? I wanted to chew on their hineys! EXILE (shakes head): You are STILL a weird boy! STARLIGHT (sternly): Scanning.......... no sign of them anywhere..... HUNTER (snaps fingers): Escaped again! Bummer! DJ (smiles): But at least we have recaptured the evil scientists! MOLLY (rolls eyes): And sis roughed them up a bit! HUNTER (nods): We've completed our mission, let's head for home, Rovers! All of the Rovers howl in unison. The scene is Road Rover Mission Control, four hours later. The Master is meeting with all of the Rovers in the briefing room. MASTER (smiles): Road Rovers, well done, you're good, good dogs! STARLIGHT (clears throat): AT-HEM!!! MASTER (smiles): And Starlight's a good horse, and the Gila Monster is a good....whatever he is! GILA MONSTER (teary eyed): That's the most beautiful compliment I ever received! DJ (rolls eyes): Oh Brother.... MASTER (happy); You're all done well! The Argentine military has taken over Parvo's secret lab, and all of his Cano-Mutants have been returned to normal. HUNTER: But what about Phillip and Julie? MASTER (smiles): They're in custody now, and have been transferred to the Sunnydale Sanitarium for further observation. COLLEEN (shocked): You mean they've gone bonkers? MASTER (nods): That's about the size of it. Something happened to them at Parvo's fortress, they keep babbling about vicious collies and dog bites.... SAMANTHA (steps forwards and lowers head): Master, sir, that's all my fault. I'm a bad dog..... MASTER (smiles): I know all about what happened, and you are not a bad dog by any means, Sam. Besides, I could hardly condemn you for your actions when Muzzle is doing the same thing on a regular basis, can I? OTTO (nods): A fair and logical approach, Master! MASTER (smiles): Excellent work! Road Rovers, dismissed! All of the Rovers leave the briefing room, most head for the lounge area while DJ, Molly, Otto and Samantha walk over towards the motor pool. MOLLY (turns to Samantha): That was quite a display at Parvo's lair, Sam! DJ (nods): You even made Muzzle scared! SAMANTHA (sadly): I lost control of my emotions, but when I saw that German Shepard lying on the table... OTTO (smiles): You thought of me, didn't you? That would explain the sudden rush of outward violence on your part. SAMANTHA (shakes head): I was not very polite at all, was I? OTTO (smiles): Manners don't count when one is dealing with criminal types like that! MOLLY (puts hand on Sam's shoulder): Don't worry about it, sis. The important thing is you stopped those two from making bionic mutant dogs! OTTO (smiles): Your actions helped make our mission a success! SAMANTHA (slight smile): Thank you... DJ (smiles): I have an idea! Molly and I just finished overhauling a Street Rover, let's all go out for some burgers, OK? SAMANTHA (smile): Great idea, DJ, sir! DJ (smiles): Hey, what are friends for? Sam, you don't have to call me sir, just DJ, OK? SAMANTHA (nods): Force of habit, sorry DJ... s....oops, I almost said it again... MOLLY (giggles): It's alright, sis, no one is perfect! OTTO (whispers to DJ): What will the Master say about this joyride of ours? DJ (whispers back): This isn't a joyride, Otto, we need to road test this vehicle to make sure all the repairs have been properly done. OTTO (nods): An acceptable set of parameters, DJ, let us proceed! As DJ, Molly, Otto and Samantha speed away in a red Street Rover, the scene shifts to the lounge area, where Hunter, Colleen, Blitz, Shag, Exile and Princess are all sitting around a table playing poker. The Gila Monster and Starlight are watching from a distance. GILA MONSTER (smiles): That Princess is an excellent poker player! I'm glad I'm not in that game, I'd lose my shirt! STARLIGHT (nods): She's good, or extremely lucky! COLLEEN (shuffles cards): It's my deal this time! Blister, you better not be cheating! BLITZ (shocked): Me? Cheat? I can't believe you'd accuse me of such a this! (waves arms): You know me! My friends call me honest Blitz. All of the Rovers stare as two cards fly out of Blitz's shirt sleeves as he was waving his arms. COLLEEN (angry): Blinkie! You're cheating again! BLITZ (looks down and sees his lost cards): Urrrrr..... I just remembered, I have a cake in the oven, excuse me! COLLEEN (waves fist): Get back 'er, you bloomin' coward! EXILE (stands up, waves fist): Bolshoi, dis time you go too farski, Blitz! SHAG (stands up): Ruh Ruh! Blitz rushes out of the lounge area followed closely behind by Colleen, Exile and Shag. Hunter and Princess walk over to where Starlight and the Gila Monster are standing. HUNTER (shakes head): That Blitz will never learn, will he? Besides, his cheating didn't help, because you won the most money, Princess! PRINCESS (smiles): Yes, I wanted to treat the Gila Monster to dinner and a movie tonight! GILA MONSTER (big grin): Really? PRINCESS (nods): Of course! You've been very kind to me ever since I've joined the Road Rovers! GILA MONSTER (smiles): Yeah, that's because you're a wonderful lady! HUNTER (looks up and sees Blitz still being chased): Well, you two have fun, I'd better save Blitz's tail from the mob! Hunter speeds off and the Gila Monster and Princess walk hand in hand towards the exit. Starlight is still a bit bewildered. STARLIGHT (looks at poker table): Hmmmmmm. There's something fishy going on here.... Starlight switchs to inferred vision, and soon discovers the secret to Princess's success. STARLIGHT (excited): I thought so! There's a lot of her footprints all around the table! She must've been 'freezing time' and then peeking at everyone's cards! I'd better tell the others! Blitz is screaming as he runs by Starlight, with Hunter, Colleen, Shag and Exile still chasing him. COLLEEN (running, waves fist): Come back 'er and take your medicine, Fluffypants! EXILE (running, angry): I'm going to really give you cold shoulder, Bolshivek! SHAG (running, panting hard): Ruh.....ruh.......ruh! STARLIGHT (smiles): On second thought, I think I'd rather watch Blitz and the others! It's not often a horse gets to watch an exciting 'dog race' like this one! ----------------------------------------------------------------------
