Fight the Monsters, Not Each Other! (Transcript)

This is the fifth episode of Traffic Squadron: Roadranger.

One day, Jack was walking in the park. It was a fine day.

Jack: Days like this don't often come across this time of the year. Days like today come once, maybe twice in a life time.

Then, he saw Kristy and Vicky. They were sitting on a bench together having some ice cream.

Jack: It looks as though the girls are enjoying this day just as much as I am. Who shouldn't though?

But upon getting a closer look, he saw that they were not looking so happy. Jack was confused.

Jack: Hey, girls. What is the matter? You should be smiling on a day like this.

Kristy: Vicky thinks that the new car my family is going to be getting will be too expensive. Vicky, my dad can handle such a vehicle.

Vicky: But he's paying 990,000 dollars for it. Isn't that a life time of money wasted?

Kristy: My dad had been saving up for a long time. He even had a money jar specifically for this case.

Vicky: Wouldn't it have been smarter for you to just get a different car that is cheaper.

Kristy: Sometimes, it's not about the price, but it's about how good the car is.

Jack: So you two are arguing over the price of a car?

Both: Yes!

Jack: So is that it? Vicky, what's wrong with Kristy's family buying such an expensive car?

Vicky: It's a waste, isn't it?

Kristy: I told you, my family's money will be just fine.

Vicky: Don't come crying to me when you start living out on the streets because of it.

Vicky then imaged Kristy and her family out on the street in the snow, while Kristy fantasized about how she had her new car and was bragging to Vicky about it.

Jack: You two aren't thinking horrible things about each other are you?

Both: No!

Jack: Isn't it a bit silly to argue over something like that. I mean, Vicky, just because Kristy is getting an expensive car, it doesn't mean you have to.

Vicky: I'm just saying, she could be making a waste on it.

Jack: Why don't we just forget about this silly fight and just go talk a walk to get our minds off things?

Kristy: A walk? That sounds like a good idea.

Vicky: Finally. Something we can agree on.

Jack: Great! ^^

But when the girls stood up, they walked in opposite directions.

Jack: I meant together, not separately!

But the girls had already walked far enough away from one another.

Jack: Ugh.

Later, Jack met up with Dale and Benji.

Dale: Hey, Jack. What's up?

Jack: It's Kristy and Vicky. They were having an argument today about how Kristy's family is getting a new expensive car. Vicky thinks that Kristy's family is making a waste of their money.

Benji: They are?

Dale: That's a silly thing to fight over.

Jack: That's what I said, but they wouldn't listen to me.

Benji: Hopefully they'll get over the fight and be friends again.

Dale: Maybe Kristy should offer to take Vicky for a ride in her new car once they get it?

Jack: That's not a bad idea. Maybe then, Vicky will realize that Kristy's price was worth it.

Dale: I just hope their arguing doesn't interfere with our duties as Roadrangers.

Benji: Maybe by the time the next monster attacks, they will have gotten over their little fight.

Jack: Let's hope so. If not, I may have to work on getting them back together. We can't have team mates fighting with one another, can we?

Up in the Velocity Star Ship, Warhog was trying to get his space vehicle to work. He tried turning the key, but the car just we "put-put-put-put-put".

Warhog: Ergh. This dark vehicles.

Graphite: What's the matter, Warhog?

Warhog: It's my space vehicle, it's not starting up.

Tige: When was the last time you had that vehicle looked at?

Warhog: A month ago. I think it's the electricity in the engine that's not working.

Tige: Electricity.

Warhog: Yeah. You see.

(A flashback begins showing Warhog out in his space vehicle driving in space)

Warhog VO: The other day, I was out driving in my car, when it began getting foggy. I turned my headlights on so I could see through the fog.)

(Cuts back to the present)

Warhog: But when I checked my car this morning, I noticed I forgot to turn them off. I can't believe my brain just made me forget that. (Punches himself in the head) This is all your fault, brain. If you didn't make me forget, the car would still be working. I need some new electricity for my car's battery.

Graphite: Are you thinking of sending....

Warhog: Yes. Eel-Lectric and Electrikat.

Then, one moray eel monster, and one cat monster, had come in.

Eel-Lectric: What do you need us for, Warhog?

Electrikat: We're ready for whatever task you have.

Warhog: Go down to the Earth and take some electricity from anywhere and bring it back up to here for my car battery.

Electrikat: Sure thing, sir.

Tige: Remind me again, why do we have two monsters that can use electricity?

Graphite: Don't you remember when they were recruited?

(A flashback begins)

Graphite VO: We were holding auditions for monsters to join our gang. And Electrikat had arrived for our auditions.

Electrikat: Alright, Velocity Star Gang, let me show you what I can do. (Takes some electricity from the lights about, causing them to go out, then blasts them over at a light bulb, which did light it up, but then also made it explode) How do you like that?

Brakenstein: Holy moly. That was powerful.

Eaglette: That was pretty good.

Warhog: Well, Electrikat, we actually already have a monster that can use electricity for attacks. We have Eel-Lectric.

(Eel-Lectric is then shown and he waves)

Electrikat: Darn it. I guess I'll be search for some other monster gang to join. Maybe I could get to those monsters on earth that had been frozen for 65 million years.

Warhog: Hang on. I think having two monsters that have the power to control electricity may be useful. So, you can both join.

Electrikat: Great. It would probably be a year before that other monster gang unfreezes, anyway.

(Flashback ends)

Tige: Oh. That's right.

Then, the two monsters headed out. Down in the Roadranger's base, the alarm went off.

Speedstar: Ah, the Velocity Star Gang! They're attacking! Roadrangers, get here quickly!

Over with the boys, they got their alerts and were shocked.

Jack: Oh dear. It looks like another monster attacking is happening.

Dale: Let's just hope the girls have settled things by now.

Benji: Yeah. If they haven't, this will be a mess.

They hurried over to the base. The boys arrived first. They were worried since the girls had not arrived yet.

Benji: Uh, where are the girls?

Speedstar: Haven't arrived yet. But they should be here.

Then, Kristy and Vicky both came through the door, but they crashed into each other.

Vicky: Watch where you're going!

Kristy: No, you watch it!

Vicky: I was here first!

Kristy: No I was!

Jack: Enough!

Benji: So there's a monster attacking the city?

Speedstar: Not a monster.

Dale: Not a monster?

Speedstar: Nope. Not a monster. But actually two monsters.

Roadrangers: O\_O Two monsters?

Speedstar: Yep. It's two monsters.

Dale: Girls, Jack told us about that argument you two were having, but for the sake of the team, can you please not fight with one another. We're fighting monsters, not each other.

Kristy: I'll try.

Vicky: Sure thing.

Kristy: Let's go.

All: Road Changer! (They transformed)

They hurried off to their Roadranger cycles and drove out. Out in the city, Eel-Lectric and Electrikat were stealing energy from the different people's houses.

Eel-Lectric: Good work, Electrikat.

Electrikat: Thanks, Eel-Lectric.

Eel-Lectric: With just a few more houses, we'll have enough electricity to power up Warhog's car.

Kristy: Hold it there, you monsters.

Electrikat: It's the Roadrangers!

Eel-Lectric: Quick, use your electric attacks at them.

Electrikat: But we need the energy for Warhog.

Just then, Graphite showed up with some Motorjacks.

Graphite: Do not worry, guys. I've brought reinforcements to take care of the Roadrangers.

Dale: Graphite!

Graphite: Motorjacks, get them.

The Motorjacks then got out and charged for the Roadrangers. The Roadrangers began battling the Motorjacks. The Roadrangers were doing just fine with fighting against the Motorjacks. Kristy then went up and began battling Eel-Lectric while Vicky began fighting Electrikat:

Vicky: You know, I'm not too keen on fighting cats.

Electikat: Oh really? How come?

Vicky: Uh, because I'm a mouse.

Electrikat: Oh, so you're scare that I may do something terrible to you, eh? Well, how about this? ( Fires electricity at Vicky)

Vicky: AAAAAH!

Eel-Lectric saw what had happened.

Eel-Lectric: Electrikat, I told you, don't use your powers on the Roadrangers, use them on Warhog's car.

Electrikat: I can find more.

Eel-Lectric: But it's still a waste!

Kristy then managed to hit Eel-Lectric.

Kristy: Take that, you big eel.

Eel-Lectric: Ergh! (Fires electricity at Kristy)

Kristy: AAAAH!

Vicky: No worries, Kristy, I've got you back. (Runs towards Eel-Lectric for an attack, but Kristy then moved in front of Vicky, causing them to fall over) Hey, Kristy. Don't get in my way.

Kristy: I wasn't in your way, you were in mine.

Vicky: No I wasn't!

Kristy: Yeah you were!

Vicky: No I wasn't!

Just then, the two monsters went off.

Graphite: Let's head off, boys. Eel-Lectric and Electikat have things handled right here.

Then, he and the Motorjacks left.

Jack: They got away.

Benji: Girls, seriously. Stop with your fighting.

The girls then stood up.

Dale: While you girls were bickering, those monsters just left.

Jack: We need to stop them and put our differences aside. No time for arguing. Now please, stop with this fighting. You are doing nobody except your enemies a favor for fighting. Not even yourselves.

Elsewhere in the city, Eel-Lectric and Electrikat got an idea on their mission.

Eel-Lectric: Electrikat, I think in order for us to collect all the electricity we need for Warhog's car, we need to grow giant.

Electrikat: Good idea. That should save us some time.

Eel-Lectric: It's time for the velocity bars. (Gets one out and eats it)

Electrikat: Yeah. (Eats hers)

Then, both monsters grew giant, the Roadrangers saw what had happened.

Jack: Oh man. Giant already.

Dale: That was really quick of them to do.

Benji: It looks like we will need Roadranger Robo.

Vicky: Roadranger Vehicles! Launch!

The Roadranger Vehicles were launched and the Roadrangers got on board them and formed Roadranger Robo. Roadranger robot then encountered the two monsters.

Eel-Lectric: Roadrangers, you do not stand a chance against us.

Electrikat: It's two monsters against one robot.

The two monsters then began fighting against Roadranger Robo. They didn't use electric attacks at first since they needed to preserve the electricity for Warhog's car.

Vicky: These monsters don't know how to properly fight us, do they?

Kristy: Yeah. If they were smart, they'd use their electric attacks at us.

Vicky: Actually, that wouldn't be very smart because that electricity doesn't belong to them.

Kristy: That doesn't mean they wouldn't do it if they were smart. I mean smart as monsters.

Vicky: They wouldn't attack if they were smart.

As Kristy and Vicky continued arguing, Roadranger Robo began getting out of sync and was moving in an odd way. This gave the monsters good opportunities to fighting it.

Vicky: I'm getting out of this fight.

Kristy: Me, too.

Jack: Girls, you can't leave us here.

Kristy: We can't fight this monster with each other.

Vicky: We're going to sit this one out.

They two of them left.

Benji: This is a mess.

Dale: We can't handle these monsters without them.

Jack: I'm going to try and get them to settle things. You do what you can until we get back.

Dale: Wait, Jack.

But Jack then left.

Eel-Lectric: Oh look, Electikat. Roadranger Robo just has Road Yellow and Road Green on board now.

Electrikat: Good luck fighting us now.

They continued fighting, but Benji and Dale were not sure they could fight them on their own. The monsters sent an electric shock at Roadranger Robo, causing it to shake, with Dale and Benji along with it.

Dale: Ugh. These electric attacks makes me so jumpy.

Benji: Is it because of their sound or that they may hurt you if you touch it, or if it touches you?

Dale: Actually because of the bright light. I'm a bat, you know.

Benji: Oh yeah.

Up in the Velocity Star Ship, Warhog saw what was happening.

Warhog: This is just great. Road Red and White are mad at each other. Road Blue left Roadranger Robo, and only Road Yellow and Green are in the robot, and Eel-Lectric and Electrikat are choppering them.

Tige: It looks like our monsters can get along better than the Roadrangers themselves can.

Eaglette: I'm not too keen about seeing ladies fight.

Graphite: But you've fought with other ladies before, Eaglette.

Eaglette: -\_-

The sun was beginning to set, and Kristy and Vicky were still not speaking to one another. Jack then showed up.

Jack: Girls, you really need to get over your fighting. This battle is much more important than your pointless bickering. I'm sure you can agree on some things, can't you?

Vicky: Sure we can. But...

Jack: Great. What are some things you can agree on?

Kristy: Well, we both like our jobs as Roadrangers. Even if I'm mostly doing it for Ace.

Vicky: And we both like shopping at the mall.

Kristy: And going to the movies.

Vicky: And watching Harem Dare'Em.

Kristy: You know, Jack. You're right. And I bet we can both agree that the city will be destroyed if we don't get back into Roadranger Robo.

Vicky: Right.

Kristy: Then let's forget about our bickering and save the say.

Jack: That's what I'd like to hear.

So Jack and the girls hurried back. It was now nighttime, and Roadranger Robo had fallen to the ground.

Benji: Dale, I don't know how much more of this I can take.

Dale: It looks like this is where it ends, isn't it? Jack could have at least stayed to help out.

Jack: It's OK, guys. We're back.

Kristy: Yep. Vicky and I got over our bickering and now we're ready to fight.

Vicky: So let's show this overgrown eel and cat who's boss, shall we?

They all got back into their seats and stood Roadranger Robo up.

Eel-Lectric: So you're back standing up, eh?

Electrikat: It's hard to believe that would be even possible with only two of you inside.

Kristy: Actually, Dale and Benji aren't the only ones in here.

Vicky: All five of us are in here now.

Electrikat: What? No!

Eel-Lectric: Why aren't you still fighting?

Electrikat: Yeah. That's much more fun.

Vicky: Arguing for no reason, or any reason at all, is not fun.

Kristy: That's right. In fact, I bet Eel-Lectric can do a better job at defeating us than Electrikat.

Vicky: Actually, I think Electrikat can do a better job at defeating us.

Dale: Girls...

Kristy: Shhhh. (Whispers) We have an idea. (Out loud) No, Vicky. Eel-lectric is the better monster.

Vicky: No he isn't. Electrikat is better.

Eel-Lectric: You wanna bet? I can trash you better than Electrikat.

Electrikat: Oh yeah? I bet I could do a better job.

Eel-Lectric: No you couldn't.

Electrikat: Yes I can! (Slaps Eel-Lectric)

Eel-Lectric: ERGH! (Slaps Electrikat)

Then, the two monsters began slapping each other. Warhog could see the battle from space.

Warhog: Eel-Lectric, Electrikat, stop bickering, or the Roadrangers will defeat you.

But it was no good. The two monsters just kept fighting each other.

Kristy: It worked. Now to finish them off. Roadranger Sword!

A sword then appeared in Roadranger Robo's hand. Then, Roadranger Robo zipped quickly toward Bansheet.

Kristy: Roadranger Robo-

All: Final Strike!

Roadranger Robo spun in a circle.

Electrikat & Eel-Lectric: Oh no! (Gets struck by Roadranger Robo, falls down and explodes)

Jack: Well done, girls. You finally decided to set aside your differences.

Kristy: Yeah. We learned that it's not good to argue for real, but we figured that we could pretend to argue to make the monsters argue so that we could then destroy them.

Benji: I have to admit, that was pretty smart.

Dale: Just don't leave us to battle a monster all by ourselves ever again.

Benji: Yeah. It was frightening for us to fight these monsters on our own. Especially giant monsters.

Later, Kristy and Vicky went over to Kristy's house.

Kristy: Hey, Dad. I'm home. And Vicky is here with me.

Vicky: We had a bit of an argument today, but we're over it now.

Mr. Foxtrotter: You had an argument today? What about?

Kristy: I told her about that expensive car we were planning to get. Vicky thought that it would be too expensive and that we were wasting money. But I had thought that maybe you could considering buying a completely different, cheaper car. I think that Vicky may have a point about it.

Mrs. Foxtrotter: Oh. About that. You see, that car was already bought. So we can't get it now.

Kristy: Oh yeah? Well, I guess now we don't have to worry about spending all that money.

Mr. Foxtrotter: We actually had second thoughts about spending all that money anyway. But we did find a much better car that will cost less. Well, actually that first car was better. But this one is acceptable for us.

Vicky: You've made a smart choice, Mr. Foxtrotter.

Mrs. Foxtrotter: Did your bickering get in the way of your fighting duties as Roadrangers?

Vicky: It did at first.

Kristy: Roadranger Robo was almost defeated with only Dale and Benji on board.

Mrs. Foxtrotter: Wait, what about Jack? Where was he?

Kristy: He went to get us back after we left.

Mrs. Foxtrotter: Kristy, you should never leave your giant robot during a battle. The same goes for you, Vicky.

Vicky: Yeah. We learned that the hard way. I feel bad for what Benji and Dale went through.

Mr. Foxtrotter: So what brings you over here tonight, Vicky?

Vicky: Kristy and I are going to be watching Harem Dare'Em.

Mr. Foxtrotter: You mean that show you were able to appear on one time?

Vicky: That's the one.

Kristy: I hope I can get on that show sometime.

Vicky: Who knows. Maybe you shall, one day.

Kristy: Anyway, let's go watch it.

They then went into the living room with their popcorn and soda and turned on the television. Meanwhile, in the Velocity Star Ship, Warhog couldn't believe that his two electric-themed monsters had been defeated.

Warhog: I can't believe that we sent down two monsters that used electricity. Maybe we should have sent one down first, then sent the other one.

Tige: What good would that do? If they couldn't do it as a team, how could they do it separately.

Warhog: I can't believe that Road Red and White had an argument with one another, then they got over their argument and made Eel-Lectric and Electrikat fight one another. It's a disgrace!

Tige: So what are you going to be doing about your car, boss?

Warhog: I guess there's only one thing to do.

(Cuts to Eaglette, Tige, Brakenstein, and Graphite riding power-cycles to make energy for Warhog's vehicle)

Brakenstein: Ugh. I can't believe you had to ask him about it, didn't you?

Tige: How was I suppose to know that he would make us do this? I couldn't have known, could I?

Warhog: Shut up and keep pedaling. My car needs energy.

Warhog's henchmen continued pedaling very hard. Kristy and Vicky had an argument today, but when they put their bickering to the side, they were able to save the day. Hopefully they will learn to work together as a team, and as friends. Oh, there is one more scene with the girls. This is after they have watched their show.

Kristy: That was a pretty good episode.

Vicky: It certainly was. Also, that one letter about the....Super Animal Squadron....What's that?

Kristy: Super Animal Squadron. Wait, we're the Traffic Squadron: Roadranger. Do you think we are a...

Vicky: Super Animal Squadron? We could be.

Kristy: Hmmm. If I ever get a chance to meet with them, I may tell them that we could show up on the show.

Vicky: I did already.

Kristy: I meant the whole team.

Vicky: I don't know about that, but it's possible. If I don't go, that's already since I already went once.

Kristy: But I'd like to be on the show.

To be continued...
