Behind the Hero, Part I
Presenter: Welcome back to "Behind the Hero", tonight's heroes are the duo who recently restored peace and order to our galaxy: Ratchet and Clank. So gentlemen, tell us about your latest incredible adventures.

Ratchet: Well as you can image, we've been pretty busy. After Drek's defeat there were parades, press conferences, fancy dress balls-

Clank: ...and the wiener roast at Al's.

Ratchet: Oh yeah that, and then things started to slow down a bit. After that we... well-

Clank: There was the grand opening at Groovy Lube.

Ratchet: Right. I think that was, last week.

Clank: Six months ago.

Ratchet: We're still pretty busy, but in a more, uh, domestic sense.

Clank: Yesterday I flushed out my radiator core.

Ratchet: I guess no one needs a hero right now.

On-screen: Meanwhile in the distant Bogon Galaxy...

Abercrombie Fizzwidget: Miss Bluebottom, I've found our man!

On-screen: Seconds later...

Abercrombie Fizzwidget: Welcome!

Ratchet: What the?..

Abercrombie Fizzwidget: I'm Abercrombie Fizzwidget, founder of the Megacorp company in the Bogon galaxy.

Ratchet: Bogon?

Abercrombie Fizzwidget: I'm sorry to incapacitate you, but our entire galaxy is in a very precocious situation. I must humbly request your sustenance, on a mission of dire urgitude. A mission of superfluous peril. A mission of unequizzical imperitude.

Clank: Did that make any sense?

Ratchet: So, you need me to go on a dangerous mission, in another galaxy?

Abercrombie Fizzwidget: Indubitably. A few days ago this, top secret, biological experiment was stolen from our testing lavatory, by this dupliferous criminal mastermind and I need you to get the experiment back.

Ratchet: We'll do it!

Clank: We will?

Abercrombie Fizzwidget: Crank I have precipitated your recalcitrance and made special improvisations for you. We're prepared to give you a job as the head accountant for Megacorp, plus a penthouse suite in lovely Megapolis, and our state of the art robotic masseuse.

Clank: Deal.

Abercrombie Fizzwidget: As for you Ratchet, I'll need you in superlatory shape. While in transit to the Bogon galaxy, you will undergo heavy training and conditioning including: martial arts, heavy weaponry, survival skills, stealth, macramé, ballroom dance and origami.

After his humiliation at the hands of Ratchet and Clank, Qwark sold bogus merchandise he claimed were Gadgetron products. But a key defect in this product, the Personal Hygienator, caused severe irritation in sensitive body areas and alerted authorities to Qwark's scam. Behind the Hero will return after these messages.

This update is strictly classified, if you are watching this, you're fired. Early thinking held that the specimen was entirely docile in nature. Even overt provocation failed to incite it. But the late Dr. Putridson observed that natural levels of monsterpropanase in the experiment's bloodstream were triggering some remarkable changes. Attempts at neutralizing the specimen's violent tendencies were met with limited success. Our surviving staff recommend that the experiment be destroyed immediately at Megacorp's Deep Space Disposal Facility.

(After the cutscene plays.) Clank: The computer's log indicates that we were first to view that recording.

Ratchet: So Fizzwidget must not know. We've go to warn him!

Abercrombie Fizzwidget: Ah, yes, ahh- low fat, extra foam, no sprinkles.

Ratchet: Mr. Fizzwidget, do you copy? Anyone handling the experiment must exercise the utmost caution.

Abercrombie Fizzwidget: No, no, decapitated. Hmm What? Oh, yes, yes, exercise my front-most cushion.

Ratchet: Ugh.

Narrator: So is you-know-who, just ask Billy!

Billy: (screams)

Narrator: The Megacorp Protopet. Stop by planet Boldan and get yours free from Abercrombie Fizzwidget, himself.

(After the cutscene plays.) Ratchet: You mean that thing is going to be a pet!?

Clank: Megacorp intends to market a killer. That is simply unconscionable.

Angela Cross: Which is exactly what I've been trying to tell you. There will be disastrous consequences for the entire galaxy if that monster is distributed.

Clank: We must get through to Mr. Fizzwidget.

Angela Cross: (sighs) If you still think he'll listen, you should try to catch him on the planet Boldan. I'll upload the coordinates.

Ratchet: This could be our last chance.

A Free Pizza Party to the Squad who Bags Him
Thug Leader: Listen up, Thugs-4-Less! We got a big job ahead so pay attention. Uh. Megacorp has hired us to protect their CEO Mr. Fizzwidget. They feel that he's getting a little, ah, you know, coo-coo, in his old age and are concerned for his safety. Now Fizzwidget's kind of old fashioned, so I want everything handled with, (coughs and spits), pride and courtesy people have come to expect from us. Also, be on the lookout for these two characters. I have a personal interest in seeing them rubbed out. So, I'm offering a free pizza party to the squad who bags 'em. And remember, that includes drinks and desserts. Over and out.

Ratchet: Where is he?

Thug Leader: Freeze, knuckleheads!

Clank: Oh, no!

Thug Leader: The two a you's are under arrest for attempting to bump off Mr. Fizzwidget.

Ratchet: But this isn't-

Thug Leader: Save it fuzzy, you're not foolin' anyone! You and your metal buddy just earned yourselves a trip to our new prison. (laughs) Watch this.

Angela Cross: Ah.. ah.. (sneezes)

Thug Leader: Hey! Who's there?

Clank: Yes, Angela knows how to defeat the Protopet.

Plumber: I can't control where things break, I just fix 'em.

Clank: Surely someone in this galaxy can-

Plumber: Shh! I know that, but they don't. I get triple time and travel expenses.

Angela Cross: Hello!? Aren't you forgetting someone?

Ratchet: Oops, I meant, uh, after we free Angela.

Angela Cross: Thanks. Now before you run off, take a look at this. I picked it out of lizard-boy's pocket.

A shipment of... paperweights
Thug Leader: Log entry 47-92: Returning from Megacorp's distribution center. I'm beginning to suspect that Megacorp has lied to me. The extra large decorative paperweights being stored there might actually be an enormous supply of Protopets. Which might explain why the whole facility is guarded by ravenous mutant creatures. Their warehouse ship may hold as many as ten million crates, and with one hundred Protopets per crate that could be as many as, um... carry the two... three point five zillion Protopets! A secret shipment that large can only mean one thing: Megacorp is up to no good. I will confront them as soon as possible and demand a bigger cut of the action!

(After the cutscene plays.) Ratchet: Are they insane?!

Clank: The galaxy is in far more danger than I had imagined. Do you suppose Mr. Fizzwidget-

Angela Cross: We've wasted enough time on Fizzwidget already. I swear that crazy old man is not the same person I used to work for.

Ratchet: Woah, woah, woah. You used to work for Megacorp?!

Angela Cross: Yes, in the genetics division.

Ratchet: On the Protopet?!

Angela Cross: On fixing the Protopet's flaws! And I was this close to succeeding when Fizzwidget suddenly pushed up the release date. (sighs)

Clank: Is it worth disrupting the Protopet shipments?

Angela Cross: It's a start, but to stop them for good we're gonna need to break into Megacorp headquarters.

Ratchet: Break in? How?

Angela Cross: I have an old Megacorp ID on my home planet.

Ratchet: We'll split up then. Clank and I will go to the distribution facility, you go grab the ID.

(While traveling to Planet Smolg.) Ratchet: See if you can find any more news on the Protopets.

Behind the Hero, Part IV
Narrator: And now, Behind the Hero brings you the conclusion of our series on Captain Qwark. As of this airing, the fugitive superhero has been missing for almost six weeks. Did he die heroically? Was he the victim of an overzealous fan? Or is he still out there somewhere? The galaxy may never know, but stay tuned for more baseless speculation and crackpot theories on Behind the Hero!

(After the cutscene plays.) Ratchet: Well, no more Qwark.

Clank: Good, it is almost time for "Robo-Chef".

Angela Cross: Guys! If you get this message, please meet me on my home world. Just so you know, I found my old ID badge. I'm pretty sure we can still use it to infiltrate Megacorp HQ, but you're gonna have to hurry, before the Protopets completely overrun us! Oh, and sorry for the ballon-a-gram, it was the only thing I could get off this planet-

Ballon-a-gram: We hope you enjoyed your Galactic Greeting!

(After the cutscene plays.) Clank: That Angela is quite resourceful.

Clank: She also appears to be in great danger.

Ratchet: Oh, sorry. It's just, I thought you were one of-

Mutant Crab: Them? Dear, dear. What I'd give for even an ounce of their feral ignorance.

Clank: A burden often accompanies self-awareness, sir.

Mutant Crab: Living with the abject savagery of one's own kith and kin is quite more than one can bear sometimes. Oh, the torment of it all!

Clank: I understand. I, too, am of a series designed to destroy.

Mutant Crab: Ohh. In that case, I have something that may interest you. But may I first humbly request a meager few bolts for food?

(If Ratchet does not have enough bolts.) On-screen: You need 40,000 bolts for telescreen transmission

(If Ratchet has enough bolts.) On-screen: Buy telescreen transmission for 40,000 bolts.

Darla Gratch Reporting
Darla Gratch: This is Darla Gratch, reporting live from Allgon City where Protopet mania is in full swing. For those who've spent the past week in hyper-sleep, the Protopet is Megacorp's wildly popular bio-engineered pet. Adorable, non-allergenic and house broken, fans of the creature have dubbed it, "the perfect companion". Between the Protopet's surprisingly low price tag and it's lightning fast breeding cycle, there may soon be more than enough Protopets for everyone. Darla Gratch, Channel 64 news.

New Age Mystic: Violence is not the answer.

Clank: Can you move this rock, sir?

New Age Mystic: I am able.

Ratchet: And?

New Age Mystic: Patience, young one. For the rock to move, the forces of the universe must align.

Ratchet: So, can we make these forces align a little faster?

New Age Mystic: Ahh, yes. The holistic resonance of moonstones may yet guide these wayward forces.

(If Ratchet does not have enough moonstones, with X being the amount of moonstones needed.) On-screen: You need X Moonstones to move the rock.

(If Ratchet has enough moonstones.) On-screen: Trade 9 Moonstones to move rock.

(Upon giving the New Age Mystic enough moonstones.) New Age Mystic: Ohhhm. Yes, your arrival with the moonstones is most fortuitous, for it is in this very moment that I am able to move the rock.

Ratchet: (laughs) Gee, what a coincidence.

Clank: Thank you, sir. That was most helpful.

New Age Mystic: Your gratitude is comforting, child. I have also found a piece of something called a Hypnomatic. You may have it, in exchange for more moonstones.

Ratchet: Wait, I thought you had no need for material possessions.

New Age Mystic: Please, do not lay your burdens upon me now. I am weary from lifting the rock and I must rest.

New Age Mystic: No, you have not.

Ratchet: What?

New Age Mystic: Existence is a lie, sensations are illusions, possessions are merely visions.

Ratchet: All right, I've got an illusion of some moonstones. I'll trade it for a vision of that Hypnomatic part.

New Age Mystic: You have learned much young one. Now bring me more moonstones and riches shall be your reward.

(After the cutscene plays.) On-screen: You got a Hypnomatic Part!

Angela Cross: Watch this.

Mommy where do Protopets come from?

Mother: Why they come from Megacorp dear.

Narrator: That's right Mrs. Robot! All the Protopets in the galaxy come from right here, in our factory! Your little friend is lovingly extracted from the original Protopet. Each Protopet is given a name and birth certificate that is unique. Our training system helps mold your pet into a wonderful friend that you'll cherish forever. So the next time your child asks..

Daughter: Mommy, where do Protopets come from?

Narrator: You can answer with confidence. They come from Megacorp!

(After the cutscene plays.) Clank: That factory is using the original Prtotopet to produce all the others.

Angela Cross: Exactly. If we can take out the original Protopet, that'll shut 'em down, permanently.

Clank: Twenty percent off a complete service at Groovy Lube?

Angela Cross: Oops. (chuckles) Wrong one. This will deactivate the door to the Protopet duplication area. I'll meet you there.

Ratchet: Sure you want to split up?

Qwark: Smile, it's show time! Ahem. Citizens of Bogon, I am Captain Qwark. I come to you in this, your darkest of hours, to shine the flashlight of justice on your galaxy.

Ratchet: (laughs) Flashlight of justice? Oomph.

Qwark: As you know, a living menace called the Protopet has been set loose in your galaxy. But fear not Bogonites! I, Captain Qwark, have caught the perpetrators! Yes good citizens, these are the masterminds behind Megacorp's experiment with death! And now, with this, uh, super electro-gadget I invented, I will end the Protopet threat once and for all.

Angela Cross: That's my Helix-o-morph! I invented- Oomph!

Qwark: Ahem. Stay tuned, dear viewers, as I amplify the signal from this Helix-o-thingy and render every Protopet in the galaxy completely harmless. Allow me to demonstrate.

Qwark: (groans and belches)

Ratchet: Right. What do you suppose is wrong with it?

Angela Cross: I don't know, it could take months of research and-

Clank: The battery is in backwards.

Qwark: Oops.

Abercrombie Fizzwidget: Imbecilic to the very last.

Abercrombie Fizzwidget: (laughs) Down boy!

Excitement
HelpDesk: We at Megacorp would like to congratulate you on your choice of the Commando-matic body armor and helmet combo! Now that you've had a chance to use it, we'd like to demonstrate some of it's most important functions.

HelpDesk: The Commando-matic helmet provides several helpful readouts. This area shows your current and maximum nanotech units! Nanotech is your health, so make sure you don't run out. This is one nanotech unit. Your Commando-matic body armor allows you to increase your maximum nanotech significantly. To increase your nanotech, you must defeat enemies. When you defeat an enemy, it leaves behind nanomites! Your body armor absorbes the nanomites and stores them in this bar. When the bar fills up, you get an additional unit of nanotech! The tougher the enemy is, the more nanomites it provides.

HelpDesk: The Commando-matic helmet also helps you monitor your weaponry. This section shows the icon for your current weapon and the ammo you have left. If you defeat an enemy with a Megacorp weapon, that weapon will also absorb some of the nanomites left behind. This bar stores the nanomites for your selected weapon. Once it fills up, your weapon will upgrade! You can see the same bar for each weapon in your quick select menu and in your weapons screen.

HelpDesk: We hope you enjoy your Megacorp Commando-matic body armor and helmet. Be sure to visit your local Megacorp weapons emporium for the latest in destructive technology.
