Megatron : [surprised] Prime!
Optimus Prime : One shall stand, one shall fall.
Megatron : Why throw away your life so recklessly?
Optimus Prime : That's a question you should ask yourself, Megatron.

[Optimus Prime has thrown Megatron to the ground]
Kup : Finish him off, Prime! Do it now!
[Optimus Prime picks up his laser rifle and takes aim]
Megatron : [feigning defeat as he reaches for a laser gun] No more, Optimus Prime! Grant me mercy, I beg of you!
Optimus Prime : You, who are without mercy, now plead for it? I thought you were made of sterner stuff!
-
Optimus Prime : Megatron must be stopped... no matter the cost.

Rodimus Prime : Optimus...

Perceptor : I fear the wounds are... fatal.
Daniel : [long pause] Prime, you can't die.
Optimus Prime : Do not grieve. Soon I shall be one with the Matrix.
Hot Rod : Prime.
Optimus Prime : Ultra Magnus, it is to you, old friend, I shall pass the Matrix of Leadership as it was passed to me.
Ultra Magnus : But Prime, I'm... I'm just a soldier. I... I'm not worthy.
Optimus Prime : Nor was I. But one day, an Autobot shall rise from our ranks, and use the power of the Matrix to light our darkest hour.

[the Decepticons ambush the Autobots on board the shuttle]
Brawn : Megatron? Decepticons!
Megatron : Die, Autobots!
[the Decepticons kill the Autobots on board the shuttle except Ironhide]
Megatron : This was almost too easy, Starscream!
Starscream : Much easier, almighty Megatron, than attacking the real threat; the Autobots' moonbase!
Megatron : You're an idiot, Starscream. When we slip by their early warning systems in their own shuttle and destroy Autobot City, the Autobots will be vanquished forever.
Ironhide : No!
Megatron : Such heroic nonsense!
[blasts off Ironhide's head, killing him]

Shockwave : Laserbeak returns, Megatron.
Megatron : Welcome, Laserbeak! Unlike some of my other warriors, you never fail me. Soundwave, play back Laserbeak's findings.
Soundwave : As you command, Megatron.
Optimus Prime : [on the playback] I want you to make a special run to Autobot City on Earth.
Ironhide : But, Prime...
Optimus Prime : Listen, Ironhide. We don't have enough energon cubes to power a full-scale assault. Ready the shuttle for launch! Now all we need is a little energon and a lot of luck.
Megatron : More than you imagine, Optimus Prime.

Optimus Prime : Dinobots, destroy Devastator!
Grimlock : Me Grimlock love challenge!

Optimus Prime : Ironhide, report to me at once.
Ironhide : Every time I look into a monitor Prime, my circuits sizzle. When are we going to start busting Deceptichops?
Optimus Prime : I want you to make a special run to Autobot City on Earth.
Ironhide : But, Prime!
Optimus Prime : Listen, Ironhide. We don't have enough energon cubes to power a full-scale assault. Ready the shuttle for launch!
