Otto & Sam -- "The Traitor -- Part 1" The scene is the home of Nathan and Wanna Lovejoy (aka the Computer Renegade and the Masked Melitta), the owners of Otto and Samantha Maddog. With a loud BOOM!!!! Nathan, Wanna and their dogs appear in the living room of the modestly furniture house. NATHAN (relieved): It's so good to be home! OTTO (smiling): That was a very interesting mission SAMANTHA (frightened): Yes it was, honey, we barely survived! WANNA (giggling): Oh come now, it wasn't so bad! Excuse me while I get out of my costume. Wanna walks into the bedroom and closes the door. Nathan removes his mask and black hat while Otto and Samantha go out on the porch. SAMANTHA (worried): Otto, my love, you and I have been fighting crime and making rescues for a long time now. When will we ever have any time to relax? Don't get me wrong, I enjoy helping others, but I just want to spend time alone with you for a change. OTTO (smiling): Samantha, we are together! And we'll always be together, why I went back in ...... er...... I mean..... SAMANTHA (interrupting): But what? OTTO (stuttering): Well, what I meant to say was ..... wait....... (sigh of relief) urgent message from Road Rover Headquarters, the Master needs us! SAMANTHA (excited): I better go tell Nathan and Wanna, we'll have to teteport there immediately! OTTO (shouting as she runs away): Hurry, darling, we must go soon! The scene changes to Road Rover Headquarters, in the briefing room are the Street Rovers. There is Dotty, a dalmation, their leader along with Maxx (german shapard) Morgan (chocolate labrador) Valkyrie (elkhound) Electra (dalmation) Emaryld (wolf-german shepard mix) and Ashley (chihuahua). Also seated at the table is Dervish, who is anxiously looking at his laptop. Soon, Otto and Samantha (now in Cano-Sapien form) enter the room and take seats. MASTER: Road Rovers, we face a crisis. As some of you may know, for the past two weeks we've being keeping a Road Rover named Dreadnaught in our detention center. Last night he escaped and has not been heard from since. OTTO (smiling): Isn't he the former Space Rover who ..... VALKYRIE (interrupting): who snuck abourd the Canius Minor and committed sabatoge and attempted sexual assault there a few months ago. DOTTY (smiling): Score one for the Street Rovers! MAXX (pointing at Otto): Got you on that one, android boy! SAMANTHA (angry): Stop making fun of my husband, he's not an android! MAXX (smiling): Hey, I was just kidding, girlfriend! MASTER (shouting): Rovers, heel! Now, if I may continue, there is reason to believe that Dreadnaught will turn traitor on us and reveal our secrets to any of our enemies. EMARYLD (slapping hand on the table): Like General Parvo! MASTER: Correct, Emaryld, it is imperative that we find him before Parvo does! I've already sent the other Rover teams out looking for him. The Road Rover elite are searching west of this position, the Collie Squardon is searching east. Here is what I want all of you to do ...... Molly and DJ walk into the meeting room, covered from head to toe in black dirt. MOLLY (smiling): Sorry we're late, Master. DJ (smiling): We've been overhauling the Sub Rover, sir! MASTER (smiling): Glad you could join us, I need you and Molly to upgrade all of the Headquarter's defensive systems, and as quickly as you can! DJ (saluting): We'll get right on it! Molly and DJ leaves the briefing room. MASTER (pointing): Dervish, Otto, I need you two to create firewalls in our computer systems. Dreadnaught had access to all Road Rover security protocols, they need to be changed to stop him from breaking into our mainframe. OTTO (smiling): I'm calculating appropriate counter measures now! DERVISH (standing up and looking at Otto): We better get started now! MASTER: Now the rest of you will begin searching north of this location, find Dreadnaught and stop him! Dotty, you're in charge of this operation and .... OTTO (interrupting): Master, I detect that someone has accessed a luge and is heading straight for Headquarters! MASTER (turning to his console): I'm shutting down all luges now! OTTO (shouting): Wait, sir, it's the Austrailian luge, it's Cobber! MASTER: All the luges are down, Otto, lock unto him and teleport him here immediately! OTTO: It is done, Master! SAMANTHA (under her breath): I'd like to see any of those Street Rover girls do that! COBBER (walking into the room): Master, I came as soon as I could and ...... MASTER (smiling): Good to see you, Cobber! You and Samantha will join the Street Rovers in their mission, Dotty, brief him as you mount your vehicles! ASHLEY (grinning): WOW!!! That Cobber is SO CUTE! Wonder if he's .... MORGAN (whispering to Ashley): Don't even think about it, Ash, I've read his mind, he's in love with an Austrailian Shepard, a Space Rover named Sheena MAXX (snaps fingers): Too bad .... DOTTY (shouting): STREET ROVERS, LET'S ROLL!!!!!!!!! The Street Rovers howl in unison, Otto sadly watches Samantha leave with them, remembering what nearly happened the last time they were separated. DERV (putting his hand on Otto's shoulder): Otto, are you alright? OTTO (frowning): Well..... yeah..... I'm fine, we better get to work! Otto and Dervish each sit in front of terminals and begin to type out 'firewall' codes. Otto's fingers are much faster than Derv. Meanwhile the Street Rovers, Samantha and Cobber all arrive at the Road Rover motor pool, Molly and DJ greet them at the door. DJ (pointing): Over there you'll find my latest creation in Road Rover vehicles, I call them Bike Rovers! MOLLY (smiling): They're motorcycles with little 'extras' on them, we hope that all of you will like them! SAMANTHA (whispering to Molly): Sister, are these things safe? I've never driven a motorcycle before! MOILLY (whispering back): Don't worry, Sam, you'll do just fine! All of the Street Rovers, Cobber and Samantha mount their Bike Rovers and follow Dotty out the huge doggie door. Each Rover is wearing a helmet equipped with radio communicators, so each member of the team can talk to each other as they ride. DOTTY: Dotty to everyone! We're heading north! Keep your eyes open and watch your on-board scanners for any traces of Dreadnaught MAXX: Hey Dotty! Shouldn't we all find a mall and get some really great looking biker clothes? ELECTRA: Maxx, this is no time for fashion, we must complete our mission! EMARYLD: Electra is correct, does anyone have a trace of that two-faced Doberman? COBBER: Ladies, I've received messages from the other Rover search teams, none of them have spotted Dreadnaught ASHLEY: Sam, you're falling behind, better speed up! SAMANTHA (scared): This is my first time on a motorcycle! VALKRIE (laughing): That is increasingly apparent to all of us! ASHLEY (shouting): Hey, lighten up, this is her first mission with us, OK? SAMANTHA (smiling): Thanks, Ashley! ASHLEY: Anytime, Sam! MORGAN (shouting): I'm beginning to get some strange thought patterns, Dreadnaught may be near! DOTTY: Keep us posted, Morgan! VALKYRIE: We're approximately one hundred thirty miles from Des Monies, Iowa. Continuing at our present course and speed will bring us to the city within one hour and ten minutes. DOTTY: Thanks for the info, Valkyrie. Morgan, keep reading those thoughts. Samantha, doesn't your collar have scanning capabilities? SAMANTHA (smiling): Yes, it does Dotty! I forgot, I'll set it for long range scannng now! ELECTRA: Sam's such a rookie! EMARLYD: I agree! COBBER (angry): Hey, lay off the collie lady! She's doing the best she can! SAMANTHA (shouting): Everyone! I have something! Dreadnaught may not be wearing his collar, but he may still have on his Road Rover watch! I'm detecting a Road Rover watch's signal beacon straight ahead, about three miles from our present position. MORGAN (smiling): That explains the thought patterns I've been receiving, they're getting stronger now! DOTTY: Good job, Sam! Street Rovers, let's roll! As Dotty and the others continue to travel along the highway, a group of bikers catch up to them and try to force them off the road. The evil bikers begin attacking by throwing chains at the Street Rovers. Samantha is nearly struck in the head with a swinging chain. She concentrates on the signal and using her teleporting circuitry in her collar, instantly zaps everyone to the point of the signal. Everyone stops their bikes when they realize they've been teleported away. DOTTY: Report team, what just happened here! MORGAN: I didn't to this! MAXX: Don't look at me! COBBER: Hey, I've never had that ability! SAMANTHA: I did it, everyone, to get us away from those evil bikers! ELECTRA: Hey Sam, Dotty is the leader here, you didn't have permission to ...... DOTTY: Electra, that's enough. Thanks to Samantha, we're here, closer to finding Dreadnaught! MORGAN: Yes, I can barely read his thoughts, he must be in that large warehouse in front of us! DOTTY: Rovers, let's dismount and enter that warehouse! All of the Road Rovers step off of their cycles and remove their helmets. Slowly, they enter the warehouse through the huge open front doors. Inside they see many crates stacked up all around, but no signs of Dreadnaught. DOTTY: Sam, can you give us another reading? SAMANTHA (concentrating): He's near! (pointing) In that direction! As Samantha points, a huge net falls from the ceiling and catches all of them. The falling net hits Samantha on her head and knocks her out cold. The huge net encloses them and is slowly pulled off the ground by the large center rope. Soon they are surrounded by Cano-Mutants, who begin to laugh and point at them! The two 'lead' mutants are a enlarged Poodle and a mutated Pit Bull. PIT BULL (growling): Look, we caught Road Rovers, Parvo will be pleased! POODLE (growling): Take their weapons! The other Cano-Mutants reach into the holes in the net and grab all the Road Rovers weapons, including Cobber's sword, which he surrenders only after three Cano-Mutants pull it from his hands. The Pit Bull grabs it and removes it from it's sheath. PIT BULL (laughing): Hey, this is a nice souvenior! POODLE (pointing): I see a better one! The Poodle sees Maxx's tail sticking out of the net and grabs it. POODLE (chuckling): Put that fancy knife to use! I'll mount this tail on my wall! MAXX (growling): Hey, get your grubby paws off my tail! ASHLEY (shakes Samantha): Sam! Wake up! We need you! SAMANTHA (grougy): Where am I? (sees Maxx) Oh NO!!!! Gotta get us out of here! With a loud BOOM!!!!! All the Rovers are instantly teleported to the other side of the warehouse. MAXX (relieved): Thanks Sam! You really saved my tail, literally! SAMANTHA (stands up but staggers): It's not over yet, look! Before any of them can react, a huge cage falls from the ceiling and captures them again. Cano-Mutants quickly grab power wrenches and bolt it to the floor. DOTTY (looking at Samantha): Sam, can you get us out of here again! SAMANTHA (distressed): Oh NO!!! That last teleport must've overloaded the circuits, my collar isn't working anymore! VALKYRIE (sternly): This puts us in a great disadvantage in this situation, Dotty! DOTTY (shouting): Alright! You have us! Show yourself, Parvo! Slowly emerging from the shadows is General Parvo, Groomer and Dreadnaught. PARVO (shakes his head): Well, well, well. What have we here? Road Rovers, you must be here to recapture Dreadnaught! When he first came in search of me, I didn't believe that he was a traitor. GROOMER: But since you doggies came here to take him away from us, he must be telling the truth! DREADNAUGHT (smiling): Ya, and I'll tell you everything, if you give me what I want! PARVO (grinning): Alright, partner, tell me what it is you want! DREADNAUGHT (smiling): Look at all of these beautiful girl dogs! WOW!!! PARVO: So, you want THAT kind of pleasure? Very well, choose one of those females for yourself, and my Cano-Mutants will destroy the rest! -------------------------------------------------------------------------- to be continued
