(male #1)
'This is a great day.'
'Our country's first
telecommunication satellite.'
And the world's
most advanced.
'Melanesia will now
enter the modern era.'
Thanks to my friend
Dr. Benton Quest.
Assuming his black box
technology works as well
in space as it did in his lab.
Don't worry, General Yala.
Doc's system can pick
off signals better than
a first base coach.
Then, beam 'em back
with pinpoint accuracy.
Thanks for the
vote of confidence, boys.
Everything's A-okay,
President Horkarno.
We should be getting
to the command center, sir.
'Launch is only
15 minutes away.'
They are gone.
Cutting it kind of close,
aren't we?
Bandit, come back here.
[barking]
Hadji, head him off.
[dramatic music]
[barking]
- Ah!
- Ah!
(male #1)
'By the time command center
discovers they can't control'
'the satellite--
it'll be too late.'
Ha ha ha!
Hadji, something's going on.
- What the..
- It's the Quest kids.
[dramatic music]
- Where'd they go?
- Forget them.
We are getting
too close to launch.
And put that away,
before you blow us both up.
[dramatic music]
Surprise.
[screaming]
thud
Aha, you have
the best seat in the house.
The boys should
have been here by now, Race.
They're gonna miss the lift-off.
(Race)
'No offence, doc. But they're
probably out joy-riding.
'Let's say, Jonny
finally talked Hadji
into taking him surfing.
- Help!
- Over here.
- Help!
- Help!
It's no use, Jonny.
They cannot see us.
They've gotta, because
in less than five minutes
'we're gonna be toast.'
There's no way
out of here, Hadji.
Even if we stood
on each other's--
[barking]
(Jonny)
'Bandit, where have you been?'
Come on, Bandit, show me.
'Come closer.
Come on, Bandit.'
'Attaboy! You see, yeah.
That's it, boy!'
Come on, closer.
'Closer.'
Good boy!
Good hunter!
But we've gotta haul.
[whirring]
(Jonny)
'20 seconds and counting.'
We will never clear
the blast area in time, Jonny.
Hang on!
[tires screeching]
Whatever those creeps
did to the satellite
it's too late now.
Unless we can get
dad to abort the mission.
You will never reach
him in this vehicle.
Then we'll reach him
on foot. Come on!
Orbital trajectory
is excellent.
boom
[grunting]
What are you doing?
Quiet!
[dramatic music]
Stay down, doc.
Hold it right there, gentlemen.
thud
Lucky for you.
I'm on your side.
General Yala,
what is the meaning of this?
I guess you could call it a
military coup, Mr. President.
But it is so much more.
Instituting system override.
Telemetry parameters,
complete.
And now it begins.
They've transferred
control of the satellite
to another location,
Mr. President.
But why?
Dr. Zin.
Yes, Dr. Quest.
Because now I am in control.
(Dr. Zin)
'It has been
a long time, Bannon.'
Well, look what
the cat dragged in.
I see you are as rash as ever.
(Dr. Zin)
'And as you can see,
I have not been idle--'
[beeping]
(man on radio)
'Code Red from
Missile Command Center.'
'Dispatching armored units.'
(Dr. Zin)
'I have been waiting
and watching'
'for the right opportunity.'
With a partner like Dr. Zin,
who needs democratic elections.
You will never
take over Melanesia.
My army will stop you.
Even if you kill me.
Let them try.
Most of the commanders
are on my side.
Only a few divisions
are still loyal.
And those have
already been targeted.
[whirring]
boom
No!
Bravo, Dr. Quest.
Your system does deliver
with pinpoint accuracy.
(General Yala)
'Though, not in
the way you intended.'
(Dr. Zin)
'A very impressive
visual acuity, too.'
boom
My troops.
In disarray, Mr. President.
Before they even know
what has happened to them.
General, the tank unit
has already been dispatched.
But how?
[panting]
vroom
- Stop.
- Over here.
Something big's
going down, Hadji.
Come on.
[dramatic music]
boom
zap
boom
Ah!
[screaming]
[explosion]
So much for securing
Melanesia, general.
But as you know,
I am interested
in more global entertainment.
Leaders of the western world,
this is Dr. Zin.
You'll soon witness proof
that I am in control
of a satellite that can destroy
anything on earth, I choose.
I demand five million dollars
in gold bullion
delivered within 48 hours.
Or there will be
dire consequences.
(Dr. Zin)
'You have been warned.'
Doc, isn't that the
U.S. Airforce Base in Hawaii?
[whirring]
boom
Satellite approaching
orbital transmission factor
secondary target.
[intense music]
Ah-h!
thud
Enjoying the show?
The leaders of the world
will never agree
on anything, Dr. Zin.
Oh, I know that.
And if I were them,
I would be scrambling missiles
to take out this installation.
We've gotta move, Hadji!
(Hadji)
'Since when do you know
how to drive one of these?'
Tank Leader 2.
Highest score ever recorded.
Only this time
the enemy is real.
woof
General, look.
[firing]
Estimated time to impact,
ten minutes.
Plenty of time.
Bring Dr. Quest to me.
- Ugh!
- Come on.
As for you, Bannon,
enjoy the fireworks displayed.
We shall not meet again.
I wouldn't count on it, Zin.
Zin.
Farewell, Mr. President.
You're right about our country
entering a new era.
The era of the ironed fist.
[whirring]
In seven minutes,
I will be President.
[whirring]
Who is that?
Not one of ours, Gen..
Mr. President.
We warned our men
to stay away from this road.
Take care of them.
[intense music]
Missile attack!
boom
[grunting]
Run!
[barking]
boom
- Now?
- It's game over.
moo
Time to play by my rules.
Two minute warning, sir.
I do not fear death, Mr. Bannon.
I just fear what a man like Yala
will do to my country.
Jonny, what in the world..
Thanks, guys.
You got in here just in time.
[whooshing]
Now, where to run?
We are at ground zero.
(Johnny)
'Then we need to get
below ground zero.'
Help me, Hadji.
It's a drain pipe.
Ah!
[whooshing]
boom
- Ah-h!
- Ah-h!
boom
Everybody down.
Where's Bandit?
[barking]
Okay, Race,
what's going on?
Where is dad?
Zin.
Why are you keeping me alive?
(Dr. Zin)
'So you can witness
my final triumph, Dr. Quest.'
I am relieved.
For a moment I thought
you might be letting greed
overshadow you megalomania.
A pity.
- Zin.
- At last, we meet.
Face to face.
Forgive me
if I don't shake hands.
The command center
is destroyed.
Race, Horkarno--
And your son and his
little friend are also dead.
I don't believe you.
Really, general.
You are cruel.
I was hoping to spare
the good doctor that blow.
But since you let
the cat out of the bag.
I am sure
you understand, Dr. Quest.
I could not allow them
to spoil the launch.
No, Jonny, Hadji, no.
The doc's definitely
on that freighter.
Then, let's move.
Oh, no, we've been
lucky this far
but I'm going solo
from here on in.
You and Hadji
wait with the President.
Hang on to this, Jonny.
Just in case.
Ah!
[grunting]
Hurry up with those supplies.
You there,
why aren't you on watch?
'I said--'
thud
Bannon?
Stop that man!
[gunshots]
[firing continues]
boom
Put out that fire
and find that man.
Yes, general.
A cheap trick, but it worked.
Quick, in here.
- Jonny, this was--
- Another rotten idea.
[sniffing]
Hmm.
zap
Dad's in there.
(Hadji)
'Of course, guarded by two
well armed neanderthals'
'Any bright ideas, my friend?'
You mean, ones that don't stink?
Give me a minute.
What's that?
What's this?
Ah!
Ah!
[beeping]
Ah!
- Jonny, Hadji--
- Don't even ask.
Right.
What matters now
is disabling that satellite.
(Dr. Zin)
'I think not, Quest.'
Uh, your dog
put up quite a fight.
I told you it was
a mistake leaving Quest alive.
Yes, perhaps I let my vanity
get the better of me, general.
So I give you my full permission
to rectify the situation.
(Race)
'Jonny, hit the deck.'
[firing]
Zin dynasty cannot be stopped.
[firing continues]
Argh!
Dad?
Zin is not gonna destroy half
the world using my technology.
Ah! Ah!
Doc, we need
to abandon this ship.
Not until I reprogram
the satellite.
[beeping]
Cutting it kinda close
aren't we, doc?
Zin's takin' the easy way out.
As usual.
Jump for it!
boom
Maybe, now you can get
your country back, sir.
Yes, with General Yala--
Gone?
I am still alive, Horkarno.
Which is more
than I can say for you.
[barking]
Stupid mutt!
Oh!
That was a pretty impressive
right hook there, Mr. President.
Oh, what's that?
Empirical evidence
that Zin did not remove
my self-destruct failsafe.
boom
(President Horkarno)
'General Yala promised
his men untold riches'
now their loyalty
to him has disintegrated.
Just like the satellite.
We'll rebuild that satellite,
President Horkarno.
I promise.
I know.
Thank you, all of you.
[barking]
You too, Bandit.
[whooshing]
Melanesia sure
is a beautiful country.
I do not believe I have seen
the best of it, Race.
Maybe not this time, Hadji.
(Jonny)
'Look at those beaches,
and those waves.'
I'm telling you, Hadji,
next time--
Next time you will
not be so fortunate, Bannon.
You and Quest have only
thwarted me temporarily.
We will meet again.
And we'll be waiting.
Count on it.
