Speed: Previously
on "Speed Racer"...

I can't believe this.
It's gone.

- All of it.
- Alpha, I'm sorry.

At least you got to warn
everyone.

It looks like they got out
before it was too late.

Thank goodness.

We've got to get their
hidden science lab

or what's left of it.



This was the lab,
but everything's gone.

( buzzes )

Bro,
look at your car key.

Whoa!

Guys, there's a disc
in here.

Let's feed it to Chim-Chim.

Speed, X, when you find
this tape,

I'll be gone from here.

In case I don't make it back,

the coordinates of our
destination are on this disc.

Please be careful.

This is the deadliest
enemy we've ever faced.

Speed, X, when you find
this disc,

I'll be gone from here.

I'm not sure what's going
on yet,

but they're grabbing
all the equipment and files

and rushing us out of here,

Alpha students,
technicians, everyone.

The coordinates of our
destination are on the disc.

Please be careful.

This is the deadliest enemy
we've ever faced.

- We've got to save dad.
- And all the Alpha kids.

- Word, let's do it.
- Lucy: Wait!

You heard what your father said.

We can't just blind rush
in there.

Conor, can you pull
those coordinates?

Let's see if we can access
the data from dad-a.

( squawks )

All those explosions
damaged the disc.

But I'm sure I can access
the info on my computer

back at the garage.

Then we need to get back
to school, now!

Can't wait to get in there
and bust some heads.

Payback is gonna be sweet.

Cool down, X.
We need to be smart.

Bypass their front line
strongholds

and concentrate on infiltrating
their weak points.

Guys, I think I've got it.

( beeping )

Whoa!

Looks like a wide compound
of buildings.

- How will we know
which of these is which?
- You won't.

We need more info before
you go racing in there.

We may already be running
out of time.

Let's go now and map out
the plan as we get closer.

He's right, when we arrive,
we can lay back

and gather on-site intel.

Conor, please transmit
the coordinates

to our GPS systems.

Who's with us?

- I am.
- Me, too.

Me three.

- Guys, wait!
- For what?

We have our target location
and our layout.

Let's at least repair
some more of the disc first,

analyze it to see
if there are any hidden traps,

maybe call in some help
if things look too dangerous?

You still don't trust me,
do you?

It's got nothing to do
with that.

Sure, it doesn't.

Of all the stubborn,
bullheaded, macho--

( beeping )

Huh?

What on earth is that?

Speed, come in!
It's me.

What is it now, Lucy?

The computer's
still analyzing the disc,

and it just started displaying
some kind of energy bubble,

I think, surrounding
the target coordinates.

If you're trying to get us
to turn around, forget it.

Listen to me!

This energy field looks like
it extends from miles around.

If you enter it, I'm pretty
sure you'll be cut off

from all outside commu--

Hello?

Hello, Speed!
Can you hear me?

Come in, Mach 6, hello?!

( sighs ) Okay, I better
go tell headmaster Spritle.

He's not gonna be happy.

Uh-oh. Guys, can you still
hear my voice?

That's a big 10-4,
good buddy.

Thanks,
I meant the other guys.

Roger from Alpha 1,
loud and clear.

Spoiled Brat here.
I hear you, too.

Most def, bro.

Alpha 1's sensors
picking up some kind

of thermodynamic
field around us.

Copy that, Alpha.
Lucy noticed it, too.

It's cut off
our outside contact,

but it doesn't seem to have
affected us

inside its perimeter.

Weird, now I'm picking up

some really bizarre
new energy signals.

You see?

More and more of them
popping up all around us.

I don't see anything weird.

Me neither.

Wait a minute.
Dude, what's that over there?

And there... and there...

and there!

Look at all those cute
little guys.

What are they,
remote control toys?

Uh, actually, some kind of
hybrid half car, half scorpion

with its own artificial
intelligence

and mechanized central
nervous systems.

So what are they, androids?

Whatever they are,
they're not cute.

I think they look gross.

Come on, guys,
we haven't got time for this.

Let's motor.

- Agh! I think
they're attacking us!
- This is ridiculous.

We're being attacked
by little toy scorpion cars?

Deadly scorpion robot cars.

Evasive maneuvers now!

Quick, jack your suit's
protective force field

into the Mach 6!

What up, you little
creepazoids?

Can't get a lock on me?

Hah! that's how you lock
and load, chumps.

Speed, blast them
with your lasers!

Nah, I have a better idea.

( gunfire )

I can't shake these stupid
little things of my tail.

Just blast 'em Annalise.

Want to, by my car only
fires from the front.

X: Hang on,
we'll be right there.

Wait a minute.

If Spoiled Brat only fires
from the front...

( tires screeching )

What happened?
You okay?

Course I'm okay.

A girl can take care
of herself, you know.

What are you waiting for,
Christmas?

Let's go!

And these are the coordinates
where they're all headed

to rescue Speed Sr.
and the Alpha kids.

Once again, my nephews
are in way over their heads.

I wish you'd have all
come to me sooner.

Sorry, sir, I tried
to convince Speed and X

but, well, you know
how they can be.

( sighs )
Just like my brother.

These energy ratings
we're picking up are crazy.

Lucy, can we zoom in
on this area right over here?

( beeps )

Oh, no!
I've seen these before.

They're landmines!

No, we're not there yet.

No, we're not there yet!

No, we're not there yet!

Will you two cut that out?
It's really annoying.

Conor, how far away are we?

Uh, let's see.

According to the coordinates,
about 20 miles.

Guys, we're getting close,
maybe 20 miles.

Copy that, we'll stop
15 clicks north of here

to reconnoiter our target
and formulate strategy.

I'm down with whatever
he just said.

Ditto, dude.

What,
more scorpions cars?

They've been chasing after us.

Persistent little lug nuts,
aren't they?

Yeah, let 'em try
and catch us this time.

Pedal to the metal, boys.

Wow, did you see that, Chim?
They all just gave up.

Yeah, we're losing them, bro.
They can't keep up with us.

No, X, the scorpion cars
just stopped.

Why would they do that?

Uh, maybe they know
something we don't know.

- ( beeping )
- Now what?

Uh-oh, guys,
I think we just entered a--

( screams )

( grunts )

Are you okay?

Yeah. Ow.

( gasp ) My darling!

Please tell me you're not--

Ew, back off, creeper.
I'm all right.

Oh, man, look at our race cars,
they're totaled.

But you're alive.

Ah, careful where you step.

I'm pretty sure we've entered
a minefield.

X and Annalise,
you can ride with me.

We've got to keep moving.

If they didn't know
we were here before,

- odds are, they know now.
- I'll lead the way.

The Mach 6 is equipped
with anterior sensors.

So if you follow
close behind,

we should be able to make it
safely through the minefield.

Hah! I knew
they'd come in handy.

Speed: According to that disc,

our destination's
on the other side of this wall.

I don't see any doors,
do you?

No. And it looks too wide
to drive around.

I think there's only
one way in-- over it.

Uh, can we make that jump?

Easy peasy, Annalisey.

Our girl can make a lateral
leap twice that height.

I outfitted the Mach 6
with thrusters

so she can jump--

( groans )
Not again!

Don't those little freaks
ever give up?

Listen,
you guys go with Speed.

I'll hold off the scorpions
cars till you're over the wall.

then I'll join you
on the other side.

But how will you get over?
It sounds too risky.

Let's just fight 'em off
together.

Don't worry about me.
I'll find a way, I always do.

Now go, get out of here
and get those creeps.

Okay, guys, hang on.

Here we go!

Whoa!

Oh, no, Alpha!
We have to go back for him.

I wish we could,
but there's just no time.

You heard what he said.
We've got to keep moving.

Easy, babe.
I bet Alpha got away.

He's tough.

Well, uh, these are
definitely the coordinates.

- We're here.
- Yeah, we are.

And it looks like
we're the only ones here.

Dudes, this place
is spooky.

Where'd everybody go?

It's like we fell
into the twilight zone.

- Wait, did you see that?
- What?

I could have sworn
someone just ran by.

- I didn't see anything.
- Me neither.

- ( chatters )
- What is it, buddy?

Speed: This is too weird.
I'm pulling over.

( moaning )

Uh, Chim-Chim says
he hears something.

Oh, man, thank goodness
you're all okay.

You guys are from
Alpha Academy right?

( groaning )

The captain of your team,
Alpha Leader,

tried to save you before
your school was destroyed.

Remember?

Oh, boy, my name
is Speed Racer.

Hey, what are you
freakazoids doing?

- Let go of me! X!
- Conor: Cut it out!

Come on, stop that!

Don't you make me use
my kung fu on you.

Hi-yah!

Agh! Help!

There's just
too many of 'em.

I know, this is impossible.

Wunderbar, I see our very
special guests have arrived.

( speaks German )

Und what have we here?

Look, it's dad.

Ja, our happy reunion
is complete.

Speed Racer the father,

both Racer boys
und the Mach 6.

Wunderbar!
Just wunderbar!

Who are you?

And who or what is
your shadowy committee

or whatever
you call yourselves?

The name is Von Monocle,

Baron Von Monocle,
if you please.

Ach, so, you kids know
about the Committee, do you?

Well, we're not here
to serve you tea and strudel,

I can tell you that.
( laughing )

I see you boys are staring
at your father.

Permit me to explain.

Speed Racer Sr.
works for us now.

What have you done to him

and all the Alpha Academy
students?

Yeah, you made zombies
out of them.

You can't do that
to Speed Racer!

We'll get for this,
you big dumb, stupid clod!

Ooh! ( giggles )
I like your feistiness.

It will serve
the committee well.

Achtung!

You will bring
the machine now.

What on earth is that thing?

Just a simple device
I have developed

to increase productivity
in the workforce.

The process is painless,
but quite effective.

( snickers )

Guys, no!
Don't look at it!

It's some kind of
mind-control machine!

( speaks German )

Speed Racer, you will
discipline your boys, now!

( laughing )

Oh, come now,
do not fight it.

As they say,
resistance is--

It's Lucy!
She's come to rescue us.

Shoot her down!
Blast her from the sky!

( tires screeching )

Give it up, Von Monocle.

Not so fast, junior.

You think you can defeat
the baron just like that?

No! No! No!

Are you kids all right?

Thanks, I think we're
okay now, uncle Spritle.

Did you happen to see
Alpha Leader

- on your way in here?
- Alpha? No.

Isn't he with you guys?

No, we still have lots
of unfinished business

with Von Maniacal.

Come out of there, baron,

or we're coming in
to get you.

We shall meet again,
Speed Racer und sons.

Und next time we won't
be playing patty-cake!

That guy is nutty
as a fruitcake.

You have no idea, unc.

Spritle: So please, tell
your fellow Alpha students

we're happy to provide
temporary housing

for all of you in our dorms
until your school is rebuilt.

- This is awesome.
- Thank you so much.

Boys, I just want you to know
how proud I am of both of you.

Thank you for rescuing me.

- Sure, dad.
- Anytime, pops.

Next time, however,
please promise me

you won't launch an assault
against such a treacherous enemy

without a solid plan.

We thought we had a plan
until it fell apart.

That's not good enough.

While I was undercover,
I learned that they're building

the final version
of the hourglass part.

Soon enough,
we'll have to go after it.

But, for now,
let's be grateful

we made it out of
that mess in one piece.

Not all of us.
Alpha Leader is missing.

Still no sign of him?

- No.
- Don't give up hope.

From what I hear about the boy
he's very resilient.

He may turn up yet.

As for you two,

I want you to focus on school
more earnestly.

If you take your lessons
seriously,

it'll better prepare you

for a role at your
father's side someday.

Yeah, well, it's gonna be hard
for me to race without a car.

Mine was demolished.

Come, I have something
to show you.

Our big brother's car!

That's right Racer X's
original Shooting Star.

It's yours now.

I don't know what to say.

"Thank you, uncle Spritle,"
should cover it.

Thank you, uncle Spritle.

It's a little old,
and a little beat-up.

Well, I'm sure Conor wouldn't
mind souping her up for you,

updating a few parts,
would you, Conor?

OMG! Are you kidding me?

This'll be like-like
cleaning up a rare Da Vinci.

Ha! What's that,
like, a DeLorean?

Hey, Luce, thanks for leading
the rescue party today.

You're welcome.

And I'm sorry, I should
have listened to you

and been more cautious
to begin with.

A cautious Speed Racer?

That's something
I'd like to see.

- Yeah, really.
- But I accept your apology.

Actually, I owe you more
than an apology.

I still owe you a dance.
