Brawl at Piston Pit

Ivo Robotnik and the rest of the United States Armed Forces arrive at the scene the following morning
Robotnik successfully tracks Wachowski and Sonic's estimated location

*"Nice going!"
"Thanks! It's awesome, right? All right, who's next? Who wants some? Who do I get to beat up? Hey! Has anybody seen my waitress? Still waiting on those buffalo wings!"*
―Tom Wachowski and Sonic the Hedgehog[src]
The **Brawl at *Piston Pit*** was a bar fight executed by Sonic the Hedgehog.

## Background

*"Okay, okay. That is the coolest place on Earth, but you have to stay in the car!"*
―Sonic the Hedgehog[src]
When Tom pulls his car up to a fueling station to make a phone call, Sonic spots a rogue biker bar on the other side of the road, forcing himself to stay inside the car as he is told although getting an idea when he sees sunglasses. Meanwhile, Tom calls Wade, who is met by Robotnik's Crew and he gives the phone to their leader. Robotnik speaks to Tom, threatening that he will suffer the same fate a bully of his once did, only to have Tom hang up on him as Wade points that out.

Tom returns to his car noticing that Sonic has left, likely to the bar. He enters the roadhouse, meeting Sonic in a horrible disguise, having to explain to a waitress that he is a man with a skin disease and not a child. When Sonic spins on a barstool, Tom sarcastically remarks he can check it off his bucket list. After explaining what a bucket list is, Sonic immediately takes a piece of paper and starts writing objectives, only to realize he can never complete them after going back to his home planet. Tom cheers him up by doing some parts of the list in the bar.

## Brawl

*"Pop quiz, hotshot. You just picked a fight with a poorly disguised hedgehog who's seen way too many action movies. What do you do? What do you do?"*
―Sonic the Hedgehog to Roadhouse Thugs[src]
Afterwards, Sonic and Tom are met by thugs who want them out, identifying them as 'hipsters'. Sonic is offended and, as taught to him by action films, attempts to smash a bottle on his head. It does not work however, prompting a thug to punch Sonic, who takes cover, having him hit Tom. As Tom bumps into a bar patron, who accidentally hits another, a bar fight engages. The thug from earlier meets Sonic again and charges at him, only for Sonic to slow down time.

Sonic now has enough time to mess around with various bar patrons, taking a selfie with a person having his tooth punched out and running into somebody's boot. Noticing Tom is in trouble, he covers an attacker's face with his hat and has another's underpants attached to a miniature statue of a bird before placing Tom by the countertop, celebrating by eating chili dogs, squirting condiments onto people's faces and wrapping others in toilet paper. He disables his ability after putting a bear head onto the thug's head, eliminating all bar patrons. Sonic, still excited, runs back to the car with the patrons on their tails, driving away in time.

## Aftermath

*"The floors were sticky. The crowd was rough. And the odds were against us. But there was no stopping Donut Lord and the Blue Blur!"*
―Sonic the Hedgehog[src]
Tom stops by a motel, where Sonic has fun one last time before calming down and remarking how he will miss Earth, wondering that he could had a life on the planet. Sonic falls asleep as Tom tucks him in, noticing a news report dubbing him a domestic terrorist.
