Buzz Lightyear-of-Star Command - The Adventure Begins • An Part 002/Transcript

== XR, the Experimental Ranger ==
:A triangle flies from the left to the right of the screen, transitioning back to the outside of Star Command. On the bottom left of the screen, subtitles type in "Star Command".
BUZZ (Off-screen): What's up, fellas?
:We cut to inside the science bay, where another set of subtitles type in "Science Bay".
LGM: We have solved your partner problem!BUZZ (Frustrated): Not you guys too. Look, I can't have a "partner problem" because I don't have a partner!LGM (Sad): But XR is perfect for you. (The other LGMs hang their heads in sadness)BUZZ: XR? Who's XR?ALL SIX LGMs (Whispering): Yes!
:As they whisper "Yes!", the lights dim down and the camera flies over to two LGMs standing under a spotlight, in front of a garage door.
LGM ON THE RIGHT: Not "who". "What". Witness the future of space justice!LGM ON THE LEFT: XR!LGM ON THE RIGHT: The experimental ranger!
:The two LGMs walk off the stage and smoke comes out as the door opens. The camera then focuses on XR's Star Command logo on his chest. Then in another shot, we see a close-up of his green eyes as they light up with yellow lights. The final camera shot reveals his wheels for feet, then the camera slowly rises until we see his face.
XR (MONOTONE): XR, reporting for duty.
:XR moves forward as the lights come back on.
BUZZ: Kind of short, isn't he?
:We cut to an LGM comparing his size to XR by putting his hand over his head.
LGM: Hmm. Do you think so?
:We cut back to Buzz and the other LGMs.
BUZZ: That little robot wouldn't stand a chance against Zurg's forces of evil.ALL LGMs: (They all point to XR) Watch.BUZZ: What are you doing?
:A couple LGMs pull out blasters and violently shoot XR until he's in pieces. Just then, a car crusher crushes XR's parts except for one arm, which gets stomped on by an LGM riding a robo-walker.
BUZZ: You're, uh... going somewhere with this?
:The LGMs assemble and fix XR from the ground up in 2 seconds flat. XR's helmet sparkles and shines and we hear a whirring sound.
LGM: If Zurg blows up XR...ALL LGMs: We can put him back together!BUZZ: And Commander Nebula approved a robot ranger?LGM: Well, he doesn't exactly know.
:All of a sudden they hear Commander Nebula.
COMMANDER NEBULA (Angry): He does now! Hmph! (Walks up to the LGMs)
THREE LGMs (Scared): Oh... (Stand in front of XR) Hello, Commander!
COMMANDER NEBULA (Angry): So, you went ahead and built that expendable ranger.
LGM IN THE MIDDLE: Uh, "experimental" ranger.
COMMANDER NEBULA (Angry): UNAUTHORIZED RANGER!
LGM IN THE MIDDLE: Uh... (Nervously chuckles) well, technically, (Hands Commander Nebula a clipboard with the authorization papers on it) it was authorized... by you. (Nervously chuckles)
LGM OFF-SCREEN: We slipped it in with our vacation request.
COMMANDER NEBULA (Angry): Craters. They always get me that way. I keep telling them, no bucket of bolts can stand up to a real ranger.
BUZZ: He's got you there, fellas.
LGM WITH A REMOTE: We thought of that. (Presses a button on the remote that makes XR's circuit chip pop up from the top of his head) Artificial Intelligence Chip. XR is programmed to watch and learn.
:XR's eyes blink during his closeup. Then we cut back to an LGM by Buzz's feet.
LGM ON THE RIGHT: And he'll be learning from the best. (Camera rises up to Buzz's face) You.
BUZZ: True. But, uh... I don't know.
XR (MONOTONE): (Crosses his arms) I don't know.
LGM ON THE RIGHT: At least give him a test run as your new partner.
COMMANDER NEBULA (Angry): Lightyear, I already told you! Ranger Nova is your new partner!
BUZZ (Angry): Why won't anybody listen to me!? (Camera focuses on Commander Nebula) NO (Camera focuses on XR) MORE (Camera focuses on the LGMs) PARTNERS!
ALL LGMs: But, Buzz! (Suddenly they freeze and their antennas start wiggling)
COMMANDER NEBULA: What's eatin' them?
BUZZ: I've seen this before. It's the "mindlink".
ALL LGMs (As their antennas wiggle): Evil!
:Buzz suddenly looks at the camera and glares.
BUZZ: Zurg!
ALL LGMs: (They all gasp) His dark forces invade our home world!
BUZZ: I'm on my way! (Runs out of the Science Bay)
XR (MONOTONE): (Runs after Buzz) I'm on my way.
:A triangle flies from the bottom right to the top left of the screen, transitioning to Buzz's rocket as it blasts off into space. In one shot the rocket flies towards the screen where we cut to inside the shuttle where Buzz opens his wrist communicator and talks into it. 
BUZZ (Talking into his wrist communicator): Buzz Lightyear mission log. (XR starts talking from behind him) Zurg's dark shadow looms over the...
XR (MONOTONE): Buzz Lightyear mission log.
:Camera zooms out, revealing XR copying Buzz.
XR (MONOTONE): Zurg's dark shadow looms over the... (Buzz turns to him)
BUZZ: Could you not do that?
:We cut to outside the spaceship.
XR (Off-screen): Could you not do that?
:The ship blasts into hyperdrive and flies off to the LGM homeworld.
== Buzz and XR vs. Agent Z/The Uni-Mind gets stolen ==
:A triangle flies from the left to the right of the screen, transitioning to a red sky with smoke rising. On the bottom left of the screen, subtitles type in "Œzạ£▪◊βGæ!" as 6 Hornets fly from right to left of the screen. At this point, you can hear the LGMs screaming. Then the camera flies down showing the LGM home world where another set of subtitles type in "Under attack". Three LGMs run and scream as they are being chased by Hornets blasting from behind them. A third set of subtitles type in "Obviously". Then we see shots of the LGMs running into the buildings to get to the Uni-mind underground.
LGM 1: The Uni-Mind!
LGM 2: The Uni-Mind!
LGM 3: The Uni-Mind!
LGM 4: Quickly! We must get to the Uni-Mind!
:From another perspective, two LGMs run down the stairs to the camera.
LGM 5: Run below!
LGM 6: The Uni-Mind!
:A Hornet blows up one building and marches to the stairs. Then we cut to an LGM running away from the camera as it runs up to the Uni-Mind.
RUNNING LGM: The Uni-Mind!
LGM IN THE MIDDLE UP FRONT: Protect the Uni-Mind! We are one.
:All of the LGMs hold hands and talk in unison.
ALL LGMs: We are united. We are are powerful!
:Their antennas light up, creating a blue force field around the Uni-Mind.
ALL LGMs: WE ARE...!
:The Hornets suddenly blast through the roof, and the claw falls off.
ALL LGMs (Off-screen): ...AFRAID!
:As the dust and debris settle, two LGMs are shown regaining consciousness, and they point up to the sky.
TWO LGMs: Oh no!
:Dark dramatic score plays as the camera cuts to the sky, revealing Agent Z's ship.
AGENT Z: (Pushes a lever up) Hornets, move in.
:The Hornets march to the edge of the broken road, and jump in. The LGMs scream as they run away from the falling droids, and the Hornets aim their arms at the Uni-Mind. Suddenly, they are sliced and blown up by a red laser from the sky. The camera cuts to Buzz and XR flying as the "Buzz Lightyear of Star Command" theme plays.
BUZZ (While hovering): At ease, little green citizens. Star Command is on the job.
ALL LGMs: Yay!
:The Hornets aim for Buzz and XR and start shooting. Buzz and XR split up and shoot on different sides. Buzz flies and shoots from the left side, while XR flies from the right side.
XR (While flying and shooting): At ease, little green citizens.
:After XR finishes shooting, he and Buzz hover over the Uni-mind, then the camera flies down showing pieces of the blown-up Hornets.
XR (While hovering): Star Command is on the job.
:Suddenly, from behind an LGM, the walls explode one by one. The LGM notices this and runs away screaming. Then more Hornets begin shooting.
BUZZ (While hovering): Our work's not done yet, XR!
:Buzz and XR split up again. This time, by flying to and away from the screen while shooting. Agent Z notices this and talks to Zurg on his screen.
AGENT Z: Agent Z to Zurg. They sent Lightyear.
ZURG (On TV): That's why I sent you.
:Agent Z presses a button that sends him and his seat below deck. In the next shot, the door opens from under the ship, and he falls until Star Command wings pop out and Agent Z starts flying and shooting from above with his blaster.
BUZZ AND XR (Alarmed): Craters! (Dodges a blast from Agent Z)
BUZZ (While hovering): A new player.
:Buzz faces Agent Z and flies after him. He and XR blast him with their lasers, and Agent Z flies away in hot pursuit.
BUZZ (While flying): We've got him on the run!
:In the next camera shot, the camera follows Agent Z as he flies, Agent Z looks behind him as Buzz and XR shoot him. They follow him through a cloud of smoke.
XR (While flying): We've got him on the... (He and Buzz stop in mid-flight, realizing Agent Z's not here)
XR (While hovering): ...run?
:The next camera shot shows the city towers and buildings. The camera flies from left to right as we get a glimpse of the city, until we cut back to Buzz and XR confused where Agent Z went. All of a sudden, laser beams fly past them and Agent Z flies through the cloud of smoke while shooting. Buzz and XR fly after him.
BUZZ (While flying): He's good.
:Buzz shoots three times from his wrist. One laser beam ricochets off three rooftop surfaces and hits Agent Z, sending him falling.
BUZZ: But I'm better.
:Agent Z lands on the roof of a building that looks like a toaster. He gets up and continues shooting as Buzz and XR land on the roof of a house. XR suddenly gets blasted and slides down the roof.
BUZZ: XR!
:XR falls off the roof, making us assume he died. Or so we thought, as a grapple gun fires from XR's chest and gets back on the roof of the house.
XR: He's good. But I'm better.
BUZZ: You are learning! Now watch this. (Sets his laser to rapid fire, and slides his hand out of his space glove and slides down the roof with XR.) They never see this coming. Huh?
:Buzz suddenly gets a shocked look on his face, and the camera rotates around Buzz revealing Agent Z in front of them.
AGENT Z (While hovering): Saw it coming.
:Buzz climbs up to get his space glove back, but Agent Z fires it at the last second.
BUZZ: XR, done!
XR: XR, (XR unveils all of his guns and prepares to shoot Agent Z) gun!
:Agent Z just shrugs it off, and fires a mine from his elbow. It covers up the gun from his chest, then after 3 seconds of silence, the mine blows up XR.
BUZZ: XR!
:XR's parts fall off the roof and land on the ground. XR's voice deepens as he malfunctions and turns off.
XR (Dying): System... malfunction-tion.
AGENT Z (While hovering): (Talks into his communicator) Agent Z to Zurg. The Uni-Mind's all yours.
:The LGMs scream and run away as Zurg's ship hovers over the hole and the rockets carry the Uni-Mind to the ship. The Uni-Mind loses all of its power on the way up, leaving the ring in the center to vanish. Then Agent Z faces Buzz and puts his arm cannon on his chest.
AGENT Z (While hovering): You're good. But I'm better.
:Agent Z shoots Buzz and Buzz slides off the roof. Then we cut over to the LGMs pointing to the sky and screaming in fear.
LGM 2: The Uni-Mind!
LGM 3: The Uni-Mind!
:The camera flies from left to right as the LGMs scream and point to Zurg's ship in the sky. Then in the next camera shot, Zurg's ship flies away and Buzz rises from the bottom of the screen with his other space glove back on as he opens his wrist communicator and talks into it.
BUZZ (Talking into his wrist communicator): Buzz Lightyear to Star Command, this is a priority one mission update. (Hangs his head in sadness) The Uni-Mind has been captured, (Looks down to XR) and...
:We cut over to the now destroyed XR.
BUZZ (Off-screen): We've got a ranger down.
:Screen fades to black.
== Fixing XR ==
:We fade from to black to reveal Buzz and the LGMs standing around a table in the Science Bay. They all look at the remains of XR.
BUZZ: You can fix him, right?
LGM ON THE RIGHT: Can we?
LGM ON THE LEFT: I don't know.
LGM IN THE MIDDLE: We are not one. (Picks up one of XR's pieces)
LGM ON THE RIGHT: But we shall try.
:Buzz looks concerned, then a triangle flies from the bottom right to the top left of the screen, transitioning to the LGMs fixing XR themselves.
BUZZ (Voice-over): Buzz Lightyear personal log. My brave little robotic partner had been blasted into a heap of carbonic scrap.
:As soon as the LGMs fix XR's head, eyes, and mouth, we cut to Buzz smiling at their work.
BUZZ (Voice-over): And yet, the LGMs were rebuilding him.
:Then we cut to XR's body getting fixed by machinery, which reassembles his feet and helmet.
BUZZ (Voice-over): Even without the Uni-Mind, those little green guys still had the right stuff. Then came the wrong stuff.
:An LGM opens XR's chest and puts stuff in it, like a rubber ducky, a tennis racket, and a red umbrella.
BUZZ (Voice-over): Their selection of auxiliary gear was obviously nonregulation.
:We cut to three LGMs struggling to carry a heavy anvil, which confuses Buzz.
BUZZ (Voice-over): Perhaps there was a method to their madness. Maybe, just maybe.
:An LGM puts a radio in XR's chest, then they put in a pink dinosaur inner tube and stuff it in with a plunger.
BUZZ (Voice-over): No. They had lost it.
:We cut over to Buzz and Commander Nebula watching the LGMs carry stuff over to XR. One group carries an inflatable raft to the right until they're out of the shot. Then another group carries a ladder towards the screen.
COMMANDER NEBULA: Wow. They really need that Uni-ma-call-it.
:One group of LGMs pass by carrying a tuba, then two more groups carry a teddy bear and Genie's lamp from Disney's Aladdin as an Easter egg.
BUZZ: I don't think they have any idea what they're doing anymore, Commander.
:Two LGMs walk up to Buzz carrying one of XR's arms.
LGM: What is uh, this thing?
BUZZ: Uh, an arm?
LGM: Told ya.
COMMANDER NEBULA (Suddenly angry): BLAST! ZURG KNOWS THE LITTLE GREEN GUYS KEEP STAR COMMAND RUNNING!
:We cut over to two LGMs fixing XR. The one on the right is screwing his arm back in; the one on the left is having a hard time jamming a skateboard into his chest.
COMMANDER NEBULA (Off-screen): That stinkin' buckethead! He did this to cripple our operation!
:The skateboard is finally in XR's chest, but the LGMs let out a yelp when a brown chicken pops out clucking and floats away. The LGM on the left glares at the other LGM.
BUZZ: No, Commander. If that's all Zurg wanted, he could've destroyed the Uni-mind. Instead, he had his lackey, Agent Z, steal it.COMMANDER NEBULA: But why? What's he gonna do with it?BUZZ: I don't know exactly, (Faces the camera) but I believe that even now, Zurg is hatching his most diabolical scheme yet.
== Zurg's Uni-Mind ==
:A triangle flies from the bottom to the top of the screen, transitioning to the outside of Zurg's tower. On the bottom left of the screen, subtitles type in "Zurg Tower".
ZURG (Off-screen): This is my most diabolical scheme yet!
:We cut to inside the tower, with another set of subtitles typing in "New home of the Uni-Mind". Then we cut to Zurg watching from the rails.
ZURG: Assuming that the freakshow, known as my staff, CAN DO ONE THING RIGHT!GRUB (Nervous): Of course, my evil emperor. And (Looks around) uh, uh, who better to give you the good news than, uh... (Runs off and gets Brain Pod #13, who is carrying a clipboard of data.) Brain Pod #13! (Runs away)BRAIN POD #13: Huh? (Looks up to Zurg and screams) Okay, hi, uh, Mr. Evil Emperor. How are you? You look very terrif--very sinister today. (Clears his throat and puts the clipboard down) We believe that just as the Uni-Mind connected all the LGMs, it would hopefully allow you to reach out and ensnare every innocent mind in the Galactic Alliance. You know, a mind slave, evil puppet scenario. (Evilly chuckles)
:We cut back to an angry Zurg. The camera slowly zooms in on him as his eyes slowly light up in anger.
ZURG (Angry): You're telling me my plan. I already know my plan. I made up the plan. It's my plan. (Starts shouting) WHAT I DON'T KNOW IS HOW CLOSE YOU ARE TO ACCOMPLISHING MY PLAN!BRAIN POD #13 (Nervous): Ooh yeah, kind of an outdoor voice there. (Looks back at his clipboard) Okay, naturally, the first step is to turn the Uni-Mind from "Good" to "Evil", but um... we really don't have any idea how. You see, um...
:At that moment, Zurg has finally lost it, and shoots a laser beam from his eyes at Brain Pod #13. Brain Pod #13 thankfully dodges his attack and speeds away.
ZURG (Angry): LAMEBRAIN!
:As Brain Pod #13 screams off-screen, Zurg activates his rocket boots and hovers over the railing.
ZURG (While hovering down): If you want something turned evil, turn it evil yourself.
:Two Grubs back away as Zurg lands right where they were standing. Then Zurg walks up to the Uni-Mind.
ZURG: That's what Nana Zurg always used to say to me. And she was plenty evil.
:Zurg sinks his claws into the Uni-Mind, poisoning it with evil. As it turns from orange to purple, ghostly wails and shrieks can be heard.
BRAIN POD #29 (Nervous): Ooh! Evil overload!BRAIN POD #30: (screaming)
:The camera shows more of the Uni-Mind turning purple as the screams get louder and louder. So much so that in the next shot, Zurg's cape starts flapping until the screen flashes white. When the white screen fades, we see the Uni-Mind now fully purple, with electric lightning bolts bouncing off of each end.
ZURG (Crying happily): Nana Zurg would be so proud!
:As Zurg cries tears of joy, a triangle flies from the bottom left to the top right of the screen, transitioning to the hallway, just outside the boarding room, with Booster mopping the floor.
== "Space Ranger Business" ==
WOMAN ON P.A.: All rangers to Mission Briefing Room.
:On the bottom left of the screen, subtitles type in "Star Command". Another set of subtitles type in "Caution: Wet Floor".
WOMAN ON P.A.: All rangers to Mission Briefing Room.
:Just then, a couple of Space Rangers run past Booster and enter the Boarding Room.
BOOSTER: Hey, fellas. Something going on?MALE SPACE RANGER: Sorry, can't talk.FEMALE SPACE RANGER: Top secret.BOOSTER: (Pops his head out the entrance doors) Oh, so, um, you guys need me to empty out the wastebaskets or something?BUZZ: (Pats Booster's back) Sorry, Booster. This is Space Ranger Business. (Enters the room as the sliding doors close behind him)BOOSTER (Sad): Yeah. "Space Ranger Business". (Sadly sighs and continues mopping)
:We cut to inside the Mission Briefing Room, with all the Space Rangers around a long table, with a pink hologram of Planet Z. Commander Nebula is shown at the end of the table, in front of the windows. On the bottom left of the screen, a third set of subtitles type in "Briefing Room".
COMMANDER NEBULA: I don't know what Zurg's planning on doing with the Uni-Mind, but I plan on beating him to the punch.BUZZ: We're planning a full-scale assault on Planet Z.XR (Off-screen): Whoa! Full-scale?
:The camera flies over to the the Space Rangers surprised at whoever just spoke, then the camera flies over to the sliding doors, where we see the LGMs with XR rebuilt, albeit now fully talking instead of copying someone else's phrases.
XR: Buzz, listen to your trusty partner when I say, maybe we overlooked a little thing I like to call "negotiation". (Scooters over to Buzz at the other end of the table)BUZZ: XR?
:As XR walks over to Buzz, the camera follows his finger sticking up from behind the rest of the crew in their seats.
XR: Now follow me on this, Buzz. Two simple words: "Timeshare".
:Camera now focuses on XR as he stands in place.
XR: How many of you love it? Alright. Monday through Wednesday, admittedly, the Galaxy belongs to Zurg. But, Thursday through Saturdays, it's ours! We alternate Sundays. What do you think?
:Commander Nebula walks up to the LGMs in anger.
COMMANDER NEBULA: Sweet mother of Venus! What did you do to him?LGM #2: We... uh, fixed him.LGM #3 (Nervous): Yeah. I think.
:We cut to outside the boarding room.
COMMANDER NEBULA (Shouting off-screen): GET THAT THING OUT OF HERE!
:The sliding doors open and the LGMs walk out the door while carrying XR over their heads.
XR (While being carried): What'd I say? C'mon! You know the timeshare is solid, and you're jealous.
:The LGMs pass by Booster down the hall.
BOOSTER (While mopping): What are you guys going with the robot?XR (While being carried): Please. "Experimental Ranger".LGM #3 (Hatching an idea): Uh, we were looking for you, Booster!LGM #1: Yeah. We thought you could use some help.
:The LGMs turn around and toss XR into Booster's arms.
LGM #1 (Off-screen): Here! You'll love him.XR: I am lovable.
:We cut back to inside the Boarding Room. Commander Nebula points his baton to areas of Planet Z, instructing the Space Rangers his plan.
COMMANDER NEBULA: Delta Squadron will occupy Zurg's fleet, while Gamma Squadron attacks Planet Z itself. (Beat) This is no cakewalk. This is a high-risk operation.MIRA NOVA: Excuse me, Commander. (Walks up to the hologram) Sorry to interrupt, but I've been studying Zurg's defense matrix. (Points to one area of the hologram) I think a small one-man ship...
:Buzz steps up, finishing Mira's sentence.
BUZZ: ...Could slip past the defenses unnoticed.MIRA NOVA: Exactly! A single Space Ranger could undermine Zurg's evil operation from within.BUZZ: And with the with the new Alpha-1 prototype, I could slip in and...MIRA NOVA (Angry): Wait a minute, it was my idea. I should go!BUZZ: Sorry, but you don't have the field experience to be taking on such a dicey assignment, princess.MIRA NOVA (Angry): "Princess"? I am a Space Ranger!
:Commander Nebula intervenes and shakes Buzz and Mira to get them to stop arguing.
COMMANDER NEBULA (Angry): You know what? You two really should be partners. (Suddenly shouting) 'CAUSE YOU'RE BOTH BIGHEADED SHOWOFFS!BUZZ AND MIRA: But Commander!COMMANDER NEBULA (Angry): ZIP IT! The Alpha-1 is still an experimental spacecraft. NOBODY'S TAKING IT! We're doing this my way. Star Command will launch a full-scale assault on Planet Z at 0800 hours!
== XR and Booster in Buzz's Star Cruiser ==
:We cut over to the Star Command cafeteria, where we see Booster using XR as a floor polisher. One set of subtitles type in "B Deck Cafeteria".
XR (While being pushed back and forth by Booster): How long do we have to do this?
:Another set of subtitles type in "Avoid the meatloaf".
BOOSTER (While pushing and pulling XR's arms): The cafeteria is a high-traffic area. This could take a while.
:Booster releases XR's hands and XR transforms his polishing feet back into his old feet.
XR: Hey! Here's an idea. We ditch work and do something fun.
BOOSTER: No way! I would never shirk my duty. Hmph! Buzz would be very disappointed.
XR: (Turns his head back to Booster) Buzz? As in, "Buzz Lightyear"?
BOOSTER: As if there's any other Buzz.
XR: You know, I used to be Buzz Lightyear's partner.
BOOSTER (Amazed): Get out!
XR: That's exactly what Commander Nebula said. Now look at me. (Gets an idea and gasps) Hey, Booster. How would you like a V.I.P. tour of Buzz Lightyear's Star Cruiser?
BOOSTER (Jumping for joy): That would be the coolest thing ever!
:Booster's jumping causes the room to shake, and apparently, the camera too.
XR (While shaking from the vibrations): Whoa, Slim! Whoa!
XR: (His eyes realign after the trembling stops) I don't know about that, but it beats working. Follow me!
== Constructing the Zurgatronic Megaray ==
:Then we cut back to Zurg Tower where the camera flies up as five Hornets fly by. On the bottom left of the screen, subtitles type in "Zurg Tower". Then the camera stops at the sight of the Uni-Mind on the roof of the building, where another set of subtitles type in "Note: Big Gun on Roof". We then cut to a Grub plugging two plugs together, then we see more shots of the Brain Pods and Grubs working on the Zurgatronic Megaray.
ZURG (Off-screen): Soon my Zurgatronic Megaray will be fully operational!
ZURG (On-screen): Install the Evil Uni-Mind!
:The screen switches to rockets lifting the now electric Uni-Mind and positioning it inside the laser. The cables detach and the rockets fly off.
ZURG: Now, load the Crystallic Fusion Cell.
:A Grub operating a crane lifts up a giant battery and loads it in, until we cut back to Zurg and Agent Z.
ZURG: The Zurgatronic Megaray will use the Uni-Mind, to spread my evil across the universe! Oh-oh yeah!
AGENT Z: You haven't won until Lightyear is out of the picture.
:The crane releases the battery, with the minus sign up, and the plus sign down.
GRUB CRANE OPERATOR (Calling out, sticking his thumb up): Fusion Cell loaded!
ZURG: Fire Zurgatronic Megaray!
GRUB (While typing): Firing Zurgariffic Megaray!
ZURG (Angry): "Zurgatronic", you lackwit!
GRUB: (Nervously chuckles) Sorry. (Pulls down a lever)
ZURG: "Zurgariffic" is not bad though. (Smiles) Let's file it for future use.
:The Megaray starts to power up, but shortly afterwards, it shuts off. At this point, Zurg's eyes light up in anger.
ZURG (Angry): Did you check to make sure that the plus end went to the plus part? (Suddenly shouting) AND THE MINUS END WENT TO THE MINUS PART!?
:Startled, the Grub yelps and runs up to the battery. Another shot reveals it was put in the wrong way.
GRUB: Oh. (Nervously chuckles) That would do it, huh?
:Zurg puts his hand on his forehead and groans in frustration.
== Mira Hijacks the Alpha-1 ==
:A triangle flies from left to right, transitioning to the Star Command Launch Bay. As the camera flies down, a set of subtitles type in "Alpha 1 Hangar".
WOMAN ON P.A.: All LGM maintenance checks have been cancelled until further notice.
:We cut to a wall where a second set of subtitles type in "Authorized Personnel Only". A few seconds later, Mira sticks her head out from behind the wall with her ghosting powers. As Mira checks to see if the coast is clear, a third set of subtitles type in "I repeat - off limits" as she sticks her hand out. Then Mira gets out of the wall and casually walks down the empty hallway to the Alpha-1 prototype.
WOMAN ON P.A.: Rocket Crockett to Mission Ops immediately.
:Mira smiles at the sight of the Alpha-1, happy she didn't get caught. But after looking back to see if anyone is suspecting, she turns to the passenger door and tries to open it, until a familiar voice stops her.
BUZZ (Off-screen): Going somewhere, princess?
MIRA NOVA: (Gasps at the sight of Buzz behind her) Buzz! (Nervously smiles) Oh, hi. How are ya? I was, uh, you know, just taking a little stroll, and I thought...
BUZZ (Angry): Ranger Mira Nova, you were about to hijack the Alpha-1, weren't you?
MIRA NOVA: Why I... (Hangs her head in shame) Yes, sir.
BUZZ (Angry): Princess, report yourself to Commander Nebula at once.
MIRA NOVA (Sad): I'm sorry. (Begins to walk out of the room) I just wanted to help, you know? And I thought this would be the best way to...(Suddenly, she realizes Buzz snuck out too and stops dead in her tracks.) Hey, wait a minute! (Angrily turns her head to Buzz) What are you doing down here?
:We cut to Buzz now trying to open the passenger door. Clearly, he tricked her, but she caught him in the act just as easily.
BUZZ (Nervous): Well, I-I am on a routine inspection of the... uh, Canooter Valves. (Mira walks back up to him) And uh, yep, yep, everything looks good up here.
MIRA NOVA (Angry): You were about to hijack the Alpha-1! Oh, of all the nerve! (Points to the hallway) Report yourself to Commander Nebula!
BUZZ: Mira, now is neither the time nor the place.
MIRA NOVA (Angry): Buzz, I just have one thing to say to you.
BUZZ: And what might that be?
:Mira reaches for Buzz's head and touches it, then uses her Tangean Brain Squeeze to make Buzz sleepy.
MIRA NOVA (Off-screen, soothingly): Good night.
:We cut to an outer shot of Mira pushing Buzz down to the floor as he talks.
BUZZ (Getting sleepy): Tangean Brain Squeeze. (Hits the floor) Oh!
:Mira looks at her hand, admiring her own ghosting powers. Then a triangle flies from left to right, transitioning to Outer Space. The Alpha-1 flies by and one camera shot has Mira angrily shaking the joystick, then we cut to the control room where the LGMs see the Alpha-1 fly away.
ALL LGMs (Nervous): Uh-oh!
COMMANDER NEBULA (Angry): WHO AUTHORIZED THAT LAUNCH!?
LGM (Nervous): Uh, that wasn't us. (Turns to the other LGMs) Was it?
:Buzz suddenly runs in through the sliding doors, and Commander Nebula turns to him as Buzz explains the situation.
BUZZ: I know who, it was the princess, Commander! She stole the Alpha-1 to take on Zurg by herself.
COMMANDER NEBULA (Smirking): She beat you to it, huh?
BUZZ: Yeah... yeah, pretty much.
COMMANDER NEBULA: Well, Ranger Nova is your partner. You better go get her, son.
BUZZ: (Salutes for the commander) Yes, sir! (Runs out to the hall, then runs back into the control room briefly.) But, uh, she's not my partner, sir. (Runs back out to the hall) 
:We cut back to Booster and XR in Buzz's Star Cruiser.
BOOSTER: Whoosh! Whoosh! Look out for the asteroids, XR.XR: Yeah, "whoosh", "zoom", whatever, Booster. (Booster angrily grunts at him) Sorry. "Ranger Lightyear".
:Air hissing is heard as Booster talks, XR even hears the sound itself, knowing some space ranger is about to prepare for launch.
BOOSTER: Buzz Lightyear to the rescue!XR: Shh! Listen. Somebody's coming!BOOSTER (Scared): Oh no! We shouldn't be in here. I'm gonna get fired! Prosecuted, convicted! (Shakes XR) YOU GOTTA HIDE ME!
:Air hissing is heard again as the portal door opens from the floor of the ship, and Buzz climbs up to his seat. Buzz spreads his arms out for the automatic seatbelt to buckle himself up, then Buzz tries to reach the controls, but can't because his seat's too far, likely because of Booster.
BUZZ: Hmm. Odd.
:Buzz pulls his seat closer to the controls and presses three buttons. The camera flies over to Booster and XR behind him. XR tries to pull Booster's ears while they are stuck inside a glass tube.
XR (Isolated): Okay, Husky Bob. Let's go.
:Booster and XR slide through the tube, then we cut to Buzz talking to Commander Nebula through the TV screen.
COMMANDER NEBULA (On the radio): You are clear for emergency takeoff.BUZZ: Roger that. (Pushes a lever forward)
:XR and Booster land in the cargohold, while still in formation.
XR (Merged with Booster): Oh, come on!
:Booster and XR break out of their formation.
BOOSTER: Whew! He didn't see us!XR: See? Just stick with XR, and everything is A-OK.
:The room starts to rumble.
XR: Wait a minute.
:XR and Booster start bouncing around until they are out of the shot. Then, the camera pulls away from Star Command as Buzz's rocket blasts off, does a loop-de-loop, then flies at the screen. After which, XR flies away from the camera screaming, until he hits a wall, followed by Booster flying away from the camera, and crashing into XR. Then he slides down the wall with his spit forming a trail.
== Testing the Zurgatronic Megaray ==
:A triangle flies from left to right, transitioning to Zurg Tower as the camera flies up to the roof of it. A set of subtitles type in "Zurg Tower", the next set of subtitles type in "Now Zurgarrifically Evil". Then we cut to a Grub typing.
GRUB (While typing): Zurgatronic Megaray online, Evil Emperor Zurg.
:Zurg's hand suddenly touches his shoulder, and the camera pulls away, showing Zurg's appearance.
ZURG: You're sure this time, (Smiles) yes?
GRUB: (Nervously laughs) Reasonably.
ZURG: Let's test it on something before we hit Star Command. We need a target that won't, um... (Wiggles his fingers around) "shoot back".
BRAIN POD #29: May I suggest Rhizome, my evil emperor?
ZURG: The planet of the vegetarians, yes! Delicious suggestion, uh, Number... um, (Looks at Brain Pod 29's I.D.) 29. How long have you been with my evil organization?
BRAIN POD #29: Ooh, let's see. Uh, in total? Or just since I've been a brain in a jar?ZURG: Brain in a jar.BRAIN POD #29: Four years, next week. (Chuckles)ZURG: Fascinating! Ha ha. (Walks out of the shot to the left) Okay, then...BRAIN POD #29 (Walking with Zurg): Now that you mention it, I am a bit overdue for a cost-of-living raise. (Chuckles) You know, when I gave up my body, certain promises were made.ZURG (Angry): (Grabs Brain Pod 29 by the neck) Now see here, I was just being polite! I don't really care, alright?BRAIN POD #29 (High-pitched): Alright.ZURG (Angry): (His eyes light up as he looks at the camera) Now, unless anyone else wants to tell me his or her life story...
:We focus on two Grubs looking at Zurg.
ZURG (Off-screen) (Angry): ...can we shoot the big gun?TWO GRUBS: (Shake their heads up and down twice) Mmm-Mmm! (They proceed to type in the coordinates)GRUB: Target acquired: Rhizome. (Pushes a lever to power up the megaray)
:The Zurgatronic Megaray fires a purple lightning bolt from the now-poisoned Uni-Mind, then we cut to Zurg, a Brain Pod, and two Grubs putting on sunglasses, followed by another Brain Pod taking a picture of the lightning bolt with a camera. After which, we cut over to Rhizome, with two Rhizomians at a table.
RHIZOMIAN MAN (Holding a plate of salad): Um, more salad?RHIZOMIAN WOMAN: Oh, I couldn't. Well, I'm off to meditate for galactic peace.
:The two then look up at the red light in the sky.
RHIZOMIAN MAN (Holding a plate of salad): Oh, isn't that lovely?
:A scream from the evil Uni-Mind is heard as the screen flashes red. And the Rhizomians get hit with the ray. Then we cut back to Zurg Tower.
ZURG (Looking at a computer screen): I can feel it! I control every mind on the planet!
:Back on Rhizome, the two Rhizomians come out from under the table with red glowing eyes.
RHIZOMIAN MAN (Zurg's voice): (Evilly laughs) It worked.BOTH RHIZOMIANS (Zurg's voice): Evil rules!
:We cut back to Zurg Tower.
ZURG: Oh, this is fun! Let's hit something else!BRAIN POD #29: (Pops up from behind Zurg) Bathyos?ZURG: The fish faces?BRAIN POD #29: Test underwater effectiveness.ZURG: Good point.GRUB (While typing): Target: Bathyos.
:Another lightning bolt from the megaray is fired, and it hits the surface water of Bathyos. Two fish civilians notice the ray, and are hit at the same time as the evil Uni-Mind's scream. In the next shot, the now possessed fish faces hop out of the water with red flashing eyes.
ZURG (Off-screen): Another planet! And it's all mine!
:We cut back to Zurg Tower where Zurg dances with Brain Pod 29 and spins him around.
ZURG (While dancing with Brain Pod 29): I'm not the man who knows the man! I am the man!
BRAIN POD #29 (Nervous): About that raise, sir?
ZURG: Please! Once I enslave the universe, I won't need the likes of you. (Zurg's eyes light up) It'll be all Zurg, all the time! 24/7 Zurgie heaven!
== The Chase in Outer Space ==
:A triangle flies from the bottom left to the top right of the screen, transitioning to outer space. Subtitles type in "Space", and as soon as the Alpha-1 flies by, a second set of subtitles type in "Duh".
BUZZ: Alpha-1, power down your engines.
:The camera focuses on Buzz's screen, with Mira's face on it as she talks to Buzz through it.
MIRA (On Buzz's screen): Buzz, you know my plan can work. I can get past Zurg's defenses.
BUZZ: Unfortunately, Mira, the commander doesn't agree with us. (Pushes a lever forward)
:The "Buzz Lightyear of Star Command" theme plays as the Alpha-1 flies to and away from the camera.
BUZZ (Off-screen): Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey!
:The ships fly around Saturn, and while inside the mist of Saturn's rings, Buzz's ship flies ahead. Mira looks out her window to see nothing, then looks up then to the left window to also see no one chasing her. The theme music stops, until suddenly, in Mira's view, Buzz's ship flies up from under the Alpha-1. The theme song starts from the top again as Buzz's ship is shown in front of the Alpha-1's windows. Mira pulls the brakes, then we cut to what looks like a locker room. XR and Booster are shown rummaging through stuff to find a way to get back to Star Command so Booster can sneak back in and not get in trouble.
BOOSTER: Find anything?
XR: (Opens a locker, revealing two Star Command spacesuits.) Bingo! Spare spacesuits. (Tosses one to Booster) We'll slap one on you, jet back to Star Command, and no one's the wiser.
BOOSTER: Uh, XR? (Stretches the suit's arms, comparing his size to that of the suit) Slight problem.
XR (Frustrated): Ooh... come on!
:Cutting back to Buzz chasing Mira, the theme music starts again, and Buzz presses a button that fires two wired magnets to the back of the Alpha-1.
BUZZ: End of the line, princess! (Pulls a lever to reel in the Alpha-1)
:The magnets reel in the Alpha-1 as it bounces up and down; inside the Alpha-1, Mira's pushing the thrust lever as hard as she can to break free.
BUZZ (On the radio): Ease off on those thrusters, Mira. You'll just burn them out.
MIRA (Frustrated): (With no choice, she pulls the thrust lever, turning off the ship) Oh craters!
