  • Trent: [grinning] Yeah? What's it about? Sucking at sports?
  • Sam Witwicky: [laughs a little] No, it's about the link between brain damage and football.

  • [Bumblebee drives Sam and Mikaela through a tunnel]
  • Mikaela: [in the back seat] This car's a pretty good driver.

  • [looks at the empty driver's seat]
  • Sam Witwicky: Why don't you go sit on that seat there?
  • Mikaela: I'm not gonna sit on that seat. He's driving.
  • Sam Witwicky: Yeah. You're right. You know, maybe you should sit on my lap.
  • Mikaela: Why?
  • Sam Witwicky: Well, I have the only seat belt here. Safety first.
  • Mikaela: Yeah. Right.
  • [Mikaela moves from the back seat to Sam's lap]

  • [Bumblebee approaches Sam and Mikaela]

  • [He slowly walks towards Bumblebee]
  • Mikaela: [alarmed] What are you doing?
  • Sam Witwicky: I don't think it wants to hurt us. He would've done that already.

  • Sam Witwicky: Where's my car?
  • Tom Banachek: Son, listen to me very carefully. People could die here. We need to know everything you know, and we need to know it right now.
  • Sam Witwicky: Okay... But first I'll take my car, my parents - maybe you should write that down. Oh, and her juvie record. That's gotta be gone. Like, forever.
  • Tom Banachek: [exhales] Come with me. We'll talk about your car.
  • Mikaela: [to Sam] Thank you.
  • Sam Witwicky: Sure.
  • Agent Simmons: [deep sigh] The man's an extortionist.
