Optimus Prime Script A:
Citizens of earth, I need your help. My Autobots are here searching for the AllSpark and we must find it before Megatron. Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Optimus Prime. I have witnessed your capacity for courage, and though we may be built world apart, like us, there is more to you than meets the eye. Autobots transform and roll out.

Optimus Prime Script B:
I am Optimus Prime. Fate rarely calls upon us at a moment of our choosing. True warriors, we are assembled here today, to join forces and defeat the evil that is the Decepticons. One shall stand, one shall fall. Though we may be built world apart, like us, there is more to you than meets the eye. Autobots, transform and roll out.

Megatron Script A:
Decepticons rise! Listen closely fleshlings… even in death there is no command but mine. Relinquish what remains of the AllSpark or suffer my wrath. I offer you a suggestion to keep your insignificant lives intact. Kneel before me and proclaim…all hail Lord Megatron!

Megatron Script B
Decepticons rise! Pathetic humans, why throw away your life so recklessly? The fleshling who delivers the AllSpark to me and my Decepticon army, I will let live… as my pet. The Autobots cannot protect you. Pledge your undying allegiance to the Decepticonsand… all hail Lord Megatron!
