Quotes 

• Wreck-Gar : Ayayayayay! Lucy, Lucy, what have you done now?

  Rodimus Prime : Wreck-Gar! Help me see if there's anything that can be done with Optimus!

  Wreck-Gar : I'm a doctor, not a forklift! His engines, they canna' take the strain!

  Rodimus Prime : Wreck-Gar! Any hope the Junkions can repair him?

  Wreck-Gar : He's dead, Jim.

• Rodimus Prime : [to statue of Optimus Prime]  Why do I keep seeing you in my dreams, Optimus? Are you telling me I'm not the leader you were? I already know that, Optimus. I always have.

• Galvatron : The Autobots are acting like madmen!

  Rodimus Prime : It's a madness plague, Galvatron. If one of those Transformers touches you, you're infected.

  Galvatron : You're lying!

  Rodimus Prime : Fine. Whatever makes you a happy Decepticon. Just watch your rear thruster.

  Galvatron : They've all gone mad. This is no place for me!

• Ultra Magnus : Like I said before, kid. It's all over.

  [gets lassoed by Wreck-Gar] 

  Ultra Magnus : What...? ARGH!

  Rodimus Prime : And as I said before: Don't believe it.

• Ultra Magnus : It's over, kid. I've won!

  Rodimus Prime : Don't believe it, old friend!

• Rodimus Prime : Ultra Magnus! Take the Aerialbots and Throttlebots and circle around. Jessica and I will enter here and distract Swofford and Morgan while you retrieve Optimus's body. The rest of you I need patrolling the area. The Decepticons were here once--they may return. We don't need Decepticons making this any harder than it already is. Defensor, stay here for backup. And remember, everyone: Don't touch any red dust!
