Opening

On-screen: Aleero City Penitentiary, Planet Kerwan

Solana Trooper: Open up on seven!

Solana Trooper: Move it out, Shiv.

Shiv Helix: Oh yeah, you're a real hero, huh?

Computer: Identifying prisoner one-one-seven, Shiv Helix.

Shiv Helix: You think you can break me, copper?! I've been in the darkest pits in the universe! Places that would make your bolts rattle! The Eternity Pits of Zordoom! The Iron Hold in Novalis!— Agh!

Qwark: Greetings, new fish! I'm—

Shiv Helix: Captain Qwark...! I-I don't believe it! You're here! I used to dream of bein' arrested by you!

Qwark: Oh, get out of here.

Qwark: I was talking to you, Zed.

Zed: Yes, Captain...

Qwark: So, new fish. I take it you've followed my many, many adventures?

Shiv Helix: Of course I have! You're the most famous superhero in the galaxy!

Solitary Bill: He ain't famous anymore! Hehehe!

Qwark: Words hurt, Solitary Bill.

Shiv Helix: I am a huge fan. I even pre-ordered the new Ratchet and Clank holo-game.

Qwark: The what?

Shiv Helix: You know—the game based on that incident with you and that lombax.

Qwark: Oh, you must mean the holo-film. Yeah, it's pretty good—if you like all CG.

Shiv Helix: No, I mean the game! It's based on the holo-film.

Shiv Helix: Look, here's my confirmation email. I'm havin' it mag-shipped to prison, hahah!

Qwark: They're making a game based on a holo-film based on my life? But they haven't even consulted me!

Qwark: Ohh, this is my fault... I've been away from my adoring public in this forsaken place too long. And now, no one will ever hear my side...

Shiv Helix: I'd like to hear your side, Captain.

Qwark: You would? Well then sit down, wary criminal, and I'll tell you a story.

Qwark: It all started with a hapless lombax named Ratchet...

On-screen: Ratchet & Clank

Grimroth Razz: Where do ya think you're goin'?

Ratchet: Hey, Grim! You're here. I-I thought you'd be down at the bazaar shopping for gravity coils.

Grimroth Razz: Uh-huh. Well I'm here. I'm always here. I don't suppose you sneaking out would have anything to do with those Galactic Ranger tryouts?

Ratchet: I just need one hour. Come on, Grim, these are the Galactic Rangers we're talking about! Captain Qwark will be there!

Grimroth Razz: No leaving the garage until you help fix Mr. Micron's ship. Now get on that bolt crank!

Kyzil Plateau, Veldin (1)

Head to the fairgrounds (gameplay)

(Upon gaining control of Ratchet.)
Grimroth Razz: Does that ship look mag-lifted to you? Get on that bolt crank, come on!

(If Ratchet does not proceed with a task set by Grimroth.)

Grimroth Razz

• Waitin' on you, kid.
• C'mon, quit screwin' around.
• Let's go, kid. We got work to do.

(If Ratchet goes towards the crates in the garage.)
Grimroth Razz: Ratchet, come on. We've got a garage to run here. Leave the crates and get on that bolt crank.

(Upon pressing and attaching Ratchet's wrench to the bolt crank.)
Grimroth Razz: Look at this thing. Avionics, fried. CPU, fried. Even the gosh-darn gravity coils, fried! Oh, you really did a number this time, kid.

Grimroth Razz: C'mon, give it a spin.

(Upon using to fully turn the bolt crank and lower Mr. Micron's ship.)
Grimroth Razz: Okay, let's see if these new versa-bulbs work.

Grimroth Razz: Look up. Do you see something flashing?

(Upon using to move the camera up and look at the first flashing bulb.)
Ratchet: Yep, left side looks good!

Grimroth Razz: It's a miracle. Onto the afterburner lights. Look down. You see something?

(Upon using to move the camera down and look at the second flashing bulb.)
Ratchet: Lower left afterburner light checks out.

Grimroth Razz: This thing might just be spaceworthy after all. One more to the right.

(Upon using to move the camera right and look at the third flashing bulb.)
Ratchet: Lower right afterburner works.

Ratchet: So, are we good?

Grimroth Razz: Yep, we're good. The news says the tryouts are being held at the fairgrounds. Show 'em whatcha got, kid.

(The garage door opens.)
On-screen:

Qwark (narrating): And so, Ratchet began his adventure, hoping to become a Galactic Ranger.

Dallas Wannamaker (radio): Rise and shine, Kyzil Plateau! It's eight-AM, and it's gonna be a hot one today!

Dallas Wannamaker (radio): Our first story is a sad one, folks. Last night at approximately 8:13 our time, planet Tenemule fell to what appears to be a class-seven supernova. President Phyronix has issued a statement calling this a "tragic natural disaster," but top know-it-alls are skeptical. This is the fourth planet we've lost in the last three months, leaving some to wonder—is there an evil force at play?

Dallas Wannamaker (radio): Revered hero Captain Qwark has issued a hand-written statement that reads—wait, is this crayon? Uh Donny, can you read any of this? It looks like a bunch of scribbles and some kind of duck. Anyways, I'm sure it was profound.

Dallas Wannamaker (radio): Up next! The first planetary conjunction in over a thousand years will occur next week. We'll call some single thirty something astrology enthusiasts and watch them lose their minds.

Skidd McMarx (radio): Hey hey, dudes! Are you looking to extreme-ify your sports experience? Then come on down to the Skidd McMarx Sports Shack. With over twenty locations opening across the system, we have everything you need to get more extreme. Hoverboards, propulsion mods—we even have the latest Gadgetron microgravity coils, guaranteed to push you harder and faster than ever before. So come on down, and tell 'em Skidd sent ya!

(Upon approaching Grimroth.)

Grimroth Razz

• Still don't know why you'd want to leave all this behind. Friendly people, beautiful desert, all the barbecued sand toads you could ever eat. Hmph, some people don't appreciate what they have, I suppose...
• What's the big deal about being a Galactic Ranger anyway? Buncha action junkies lookin' to prove themselves by hurling their bodies in front of incoming bullets. Tch, sounds like fools' work to me.
• You know, if you want to take up a noble cause, why don't you clean up that loft of yours? Place is a fire trap, what with all the disassembled engine parts you got up there.

(When heading towards the garage exit.)
On-screen: You can adjust camera controls in the Options Menu.

(Upon exiting the garage.)
On-screen: Kyzil Plateau

(Upon approaching the base of the magnetic ramp.)
On-screen: Magneboots Required

Qwark (narrating): Disaster struck. For Ratchet did not have the key component required to help him traverse the ionized surface: Magneboots.

(Upon approaching the base of the magnetic ramp and having previously visited Nebula G34.)
Qwark (narrating): Ratchet needed Magneboots. Perhaps he could find a pair in Nebula G34...

(Upon approaching a toad.)
Qwark (narrating): Ratchet bashed his enemies using his trusty Omniwrench!

On-screen:

(Upon first defeating an enemy in challenge mode and increasing the bolt multiplier.)
On-screen:

Bolt Multiplier
Increase the multiplier on your earned bolts by defeating a string of enemies. The multiplier resets if you take damage.

(Upon approaching a rock ledge along the path to the fairgrounds.)
On-screen:

Qwark (narrating): In order to best his foes, Ratchet used the warrior's time-honored tradition of jumping.

(Upon approaching the nanotech crate on the bridge.)
Qwark (narrating): Ratchet knew he faced mortal peril. Should he find himself on the verge of death, he'd need to find nanotech to heal.

Shiv Helix (narrating): Hahah! I used that stuff after a bank robbery once. It healed, like, three out of five gunshot wounds.

(Upon approaching the base of the high rock ledge across the bridge.)
On-screen: +

(Upon smashing crates along the path to the fairgrounds.)
Qwark (narrating): The lombax displayed a flagrant disregard for public property. Look at him, smashing crates. Hmph, the hubris.

Shiv Helix (narrating): Maybe he was just savin' up bolts so he could buy a new weapon to protect the galaxy with.

Qwark (narrating): Hey, who's telling the story here?!

(After defeating the group of toads on the path to the fairgrounds.)
Qwark (narrating): With his enemies vanquished, Ratchet forged ahead. His destination? Destiny.

(Upon approaching the entrance to the fairgrounds.)
On-screen: Galactic Ranger Fairgrounds

Qwark bot: Greetings, cadets! And welcome to the Galactic Ranger recruitment event. Step into the training course, and let's test your mettle.

Qwark bot: Are you ready to be a Galactic Ranger? What about you, hombre? Ready to dispense some justice?

(After going through the fairgrounds entrance past the Qwark bot.)
On-screen: Ranger Tryouts

Qwark bot: I spy another contestant. Good luck, future Ranger!

(Whilst in the fairgrounds.)

Qwark (loudspeaker recording)

• If you see me at the event, please do not run up and insist on shaking hands. My mighty, vice-like grip has been known to shake the confidence of even the most heroic of men, and I would hate to throw you off your game.
• Look—up here. It's me, Captain Qwark! Well, it's not really me—just a blimp with a pre-recorded message of me. But I'm sure it's thrilling nonetheless. I just wanted to wish all prospective Galactic Rangers "good luck." You'll need it.
• Many of you have been asking for tips. Sage advice, if you will, from your humble galactic protector. Whenever my life is in jeopardy, I think of one simple guideline: Try not to die. I find that keeping this in my mind's brain helps me remember that when I see a proton blast coming my way, I should duck. Or perhaps sidestep. Either way, I should not let that blast hit me, because why? That's right—I'm trying not to die. These and more helpful tips can be found in my memoirs—on sale at the event!

(Upon approaching the start to the obstacle course.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Hello, recruit. Cora Verolux here. Show us how quick you can be on your feet by jumping over these obstacles.

(Upon jumping over the obstacles and reaching the top of the ladder.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Good work! Now keep moving to the next part of the course!

(Upon stepping on the switch and activating the floating platforms.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): A good Ranger is always mindful of their surroundings. Hop across these moving platforms.

(After jumping across the floating platforms.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Good job. You could be the recruit we've been looking for. Keep moving to the next part of the course.

(Upon stepping on the switch in the next area and spawning in crates.)
Brax Lectrus (communicator): Hey there, recruit. I'm Brax Lectrus, and my specialty is brute force. Let's see how well you can bash these crates.

(Upon breaking all of the crates in the area.)
Brax Lectrus (communicator): Hey, that was pretty good. Keep moving—it's time to get our hands on some firepower!

Brax Lectrus (communicator): Go ahead and grab a Fusion Grenade Glove from this Gadgetron Vendor.

(Upon activating the Gadgetron Vendor.)
On-screen: Press to Purchase the Fusion Grenade

(Upon purchasing the Fusion Grenade for 100 bolts.)
On-screen:

AWESOME
Purchase successful. Buy and upgrade weapons at any Gadgetron Vendor.

(After leaving the vendor.)
Brax Lectrus (communicator): Awesome. Next step: Blow stuff up!

On-screen: /

(If Ratchet tries to fire his weapon with no ammo left.)
On-screen: You're out of ammo. Look for ammo crates.

(Upon breaking open an ammunition crate.)
Qwark (narrating): The Solana Galaxy is a perilous place, as evidenced by the large amounts of ammunition left sitting around in crates.

(Upon breaking down the gate and collecting the holocard pack.)
Ratchet: Whoa, a holocard! Sweet!

(Upon approaching the flamethrower spraying dummy.)
Qwark (loudspeaker): In order to spice things up, we've armed these dummies with Gadgetron flamethrowers. Our lawyers are totally cool with this.

(After destroying the dummy and jumping onto the floating platform.)
Brax Lectrus (communicator): Good job, recruit. You may just be the next Galactic Ranger. Head to the final challenge.

Ratchet: Come on, Ratchet. You can do this.

(Upon entering the combat arena.)
Qwark (loudspeaker): It's time for the final challenge! Survive a brutal onslaught of enemies, and you just might be our next Galactic Ranger. Or maybe an intern.

(If Ratchet takes damage.)
Qwark (loudspeaker): Looks like our recruit could use the healing power of nanotech.

(Upon destroying an enemy.)

Qwark (loudspeaker)

• One down!
• Another one down!

(After destroying some dummies, sand toads begin attacking.)
Ratchet: Whoa. Looks like some angry toads.

(After destroying some of the toads.)
Qwark (loudspeaker): Impressive. Could we be looking at Solana's next Galactic Ranger?

(Upon destroying all enemies in the arena.)
Qwark (loudspeaker): Excellent job, cadet. Come see me after the show.

Ratchet: Huh. That wasn't so bad.

(Upon filling the XP gauge at the top of the screen.)
On-screen:

LEVEL UP
Max Health +10

Ratchet level up!
Defeat enemies to increase your maximum health!

(Upon a movie cutscene playing.)
On-screen: Gameplay recording paused because you entered a blocked scene.

(Upon crossing the bridge, a movie cutscene plays.)
Announcer: Ladies and gentlemen, the savior of Solana, Captaaain Qwark!

Qwark: Hello, Veldin!

Ratchet: Hello, Captain!

Brax Lectrus: He's on fire again.

Cora Verolux: I know.

Qwark: My name is Copernicus Qwark, and yes, that was an impressive wall of fire I just walked past!

Qwark: I'm gonna be real with you folks for a moment. When President Phyronix recommended I take on a new Ranger, I knew just where to go. That's right, we want you!

Audience: (cheering)

Ratchet: Yea ha!

Qwark: I know what you're thinking: Do I have what it takes? After all, you may not have prevented Doctor Nefarious from atomizing Aleero City.

Audience: (cheering)

Qwark: You may not have stopped Neftin Prog from rendering the entire population of Aridia color blind. Twice!

Audience: (cheering)

Qwark: After all, you may not have this chiseled jaw or godlike pectoral region. But if you have heart, then you have what it takes.

Qwark: You don't have what it takes.

Ratchet: But... I have heart.

Qwark: Yes, but unfortunately that heart is encased in a weak, muscleless mass of inexperience. Plus, there's your history to consider.

Cora Verolux: Got a long line of citations here. Possession of an illegal gravity repulsor?

Brax Lectrus: Operation of a black market accelerator.

Cora Verolux: Willful disruption of the space-time continuum?!

Ratchet: That, is a funny story.

Qwark: You're reckless! You're a loose cannon! And you're dangerous! That's my shtick.

Ratchet: Wait, just gimmie a chance!

Qwark: Sorry, no time. Galaxy in jeopardy! Get back out there, and remember—you can do anything... as long as you're me. Next!

Qwark (narrating): Meanwhile, on planet Quartu...

On-screen: Drek Industries, Planet Quartu

Alonzo Drek: Dr. Nefarious! The mad scientist who made all of this possible!

Dr. Nefarious: "Mad" suggests cognitive impairment. I'm more of a vengeful scientist. I trust you're here to meet the troops?

Alonzo Drek: (giddy laughter)

Factory computer: State your prime objective.

Warbot (1): Destroy Galactic Rangers.

Factory computer: State your prime objective.

Warbot (2): Destroy Galactic Rangers.

Factory computer: State your prime ob—

Clank: Hmmm. Hello.

Factory computer: Defect detected. Preparing for immediate destruction, in three... two...

Alonzo Drek: Oh, a defect. Go play, Victor.

(Upon a movie cutscene ending.)
On-screen: Gameplay recording resumed.

Skorg City, Quartu (1)

Escape the factory (gameplay)

(After the movie cutscene plays.)
On-screen: Warbot Factory

Qwark (narrating): The helpless defect knew that his best chance for survival lay with the facility's ventilation system. If he could just run to the vent, he might just make it out of there alive.

(If Clank remains idle.)
Qwark (narrating): I said, If he could run to the vent, he just might make it out of there alive!

(After traveling down the walkway.)
Victor von Ion (muffled): This defect's life will be a short one!

Alonzo Drek (loudspeaker): I know you will find the defect, Victor. You never disappoint.

(After entering the vent and approaching the bomb on the ground.)
Qwark (narrating): The feeble defect knew that if he were to survive, he would have to throw a bomb at whatever lay in his path.

(If Clank remains idle.)
Qwark (narrating): I said, he would have to throw a bomb at whatever lay in his path!

(Upon picking up the bomb with .)
On-screen:

On-screen: Throw bombs to blast barriers open.

(Upon breaking the grate with the bomb.)
Qwark (narrating): Theeere ya go!

(After going through the broken grate to the area with the springbot.)
Qwark (narrating): The young defect spotted a springbot ahead of him, and knew that with this handy device in his arsenal, he could now defeat the deadliest of forces—gravity.

On-screen: The springbot can bounce objects onto high ledges.

(Upon approaching the springbot.)
Qwark (narrating): The hopeless defect had to throw a springbot. But where? And how?!

(After picking up the springbot with .)
On-screen:

On-screen: Throw springbots where you want them to land.

(After using the springbot to reach the upper level.)
Victor von Ion (muffled): Defect, where are you! You can't hide forever!

(After jumping down the vent shaft and traveling down the second walkway.)
Victor von Ion: Uaghhh! There you are!

Clank: Oh, my!

Victor von Ion: Quit your runnin', you useless piece of scrap!

Victor von Ion: Get back here and let's settle this, warbot to warbot.

(If Victor catches and subdues Clank.)
Victor von Ion: Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-hah!

(After reaching the end of the walkway, Victor breaks a water pipe and becomes blocked.)
Victor von Ion: Oh no, water!

Clank: That was a little close for my liking...

(If Clank remains idle at the end of the walkway.)
Clank: There must be a way out of here!

(After escaping down another vent and approaching the powerbot.)
Qwark (narrating): Suddenly, the defect spotted a powerbot. This device could power up a variety of machines—but where should he throw it?

Shiv Helix (narrating): You're like, really good at adding drama, man.

Qwark (narrating): Thank you, Shiv. I pride myself on my penchant for storytelling.

On-screen: Powerbots can energize receptacles, powering nearby objects.

Alonzo Drek (loudspeaker): What seems to be the problem, Victor?

Victor von Ion (muffled): He won't get away from me, Chairman. I've got him right where I want him.

(As Clank solves the gadgebot puzzle.)

Victor von Ion (muffled)

• Where did you go, defect?!
• Come on out and fight me!
• Are you in here? No... How about here?! Nrghhh! You think you're clever.
• Show yourself, defect!
• I can hear the hum of your cooling fan...

(If the gadgebot is destroyed and respawns.)

Clank

• Oh, dear. That was unfortunate.
• There must be a gadgebot around here somewhere.
• I am sorry, gadgebot.
• I will find another gadgebot.

Computer: Gadgebot destroyed. Respawning...

(When in the next room with the springbot and powerbot.)
Clank: Hmm. There must be a way to get that powerbot up on that ledge.

(Upon using a bomb to break the vent grate.)
Clank: That was not so hard.

(After jumping down the vent shaft and traveling down the third walkway.)
Victor von Ion: You think you can run from me?!

Clank: Not that brute again!

Victor von Ion: Get back here, you miserable defect!

Victor von Ion: Try outrunning this!

Victor von Ion: I'm gonna rip you apart, sprocket by sprocket!

(After reaching the end of the walkway, Victor breaks a water pipe and becomes blocked again.)
Victor von Ion: Water! Aah!

(If Clank remains idle at the end of the walkway.)
Clank: I must escape this place.

(Upon jumping into the vent shaft at the end of the walkway, a movie cutscene plays.)
Clank: Woaaah! Ooh!

Clank: Computer, set coordinates for the Galactic Ranger home base.

Ship computer: Destination set. We will never make it, but hey, what are ya gonna do?

Clank: Oh, dear...

Kyzil Plateau, Veldin (2)

(Another movie cutscene plays.)
Ratchet: I'll never be a Ranger... (sighs)

Ratchet: (gasps) What?!

Ratchet: (gasps)

Ratchet: Hup!

Ship computer: Five... four... three... two... one...

Ratchet: Whew!

Ratchet: No vector shell damage. Sisterboard appears to be intact.

Ratchet: Ahh! Ow!

Clank: I must get to Aleero City! Agh! They are in danger!

Ratchet: Whoa whoa whoa, hey—who's in danger?

Clank: An army is coming, I must warn them!

Ratchet: Hang on, slow down. You've been in a crash.

Ratchet: Whaddaya say we get ya back to my garage? I'll run a diagnostic and have you fixed up in no time.

Clank: Thank you, I appreciate the assistance.

Ratchet: It's no problem. So, what do I call you?

Clank: I suppose my proper designation is warbot defect B54296—

Ratchet: Maybe I'll just call ya Clank. My name's Ratchet.

Ratchet: Uhhh... Up and down. Yeah, there ya go, you're a natural.

Return to the garage (gameplay)

(After the movie cutscene has played.)
Qwark (narrating): A million thoughts raced through Ratchet's head. Could he repair this diminutive warbot? Would it be the key to the adventure he craved? Did he leave the proto-engine on in the garage? The answer to all these questions... was yes.

(Upon regaining control of Ratchet.)
Ratchet: All right, hang on! I'll get us back to the garage.

(If Ratchet sustains damage.)
Qwark (narrating): Ratchet was in a bad way. Hurt, confused, and alone. He scoured the Kyzil Plateau for signs of nanotech.

(Upon approaching the swingshot target over the gap.)
Qwark (narrating): Large gaps were child's play to Ratchet. All he would need to get across is a trusty swingshot and a little bravado.

On-screen: HOLD

(Whilst using the swingshot.)
Ratchet: Wahoo!

(Upon using the swingshot to reach the other side of the gap.)
Qwark (narrating): Fortunately for our furry hero, a conveniently placed crate provided Ratchet with a Combuster.

(If Ratchet does not collect the Combuster from the nearby crate.)
Qwark (narrating): I said—provides Ratchet with a Combuster!

Qwark (narrating): Oh, c'mon. Grab the Combuster. It's right—here.

(Upon collecting the Combuster.)
Ratchet: Nice! A Combuster!

(Upon switching weapons to the Combuster.)
On-screen: You can use the to quickly switch weapons.

Qwark (narrating): Ratchet basked in the freedom of being able to switch weapons whenever he felt like it.

On-screen: HOLD

(Upon approaching the gap and facing the closed door with a switch on it.)
On-screen: +

Clank: Perhaps you could shoot something to open the door.

Clank: My sensors indicate there is a switch across the way that can be activated with a Combuster shot.

Qwark (narrating): All Ratchet had to do was shoot the target. But he thought long and hard before pulling the trigger.

Qwark (narrating): When faced with a test of his skills, Ratchet panicked. All he needed to do was shoot a target.

(After shooting the target and opening the door.)
Clank: Impressive shooting.

(After shooting the second target to extend the bridge.)
Clank: Nice work!

(After crossing the bridge.)
Blarg trooper: Fan out and find him! He couldn't have gotten far.

(Upon engaging the blarg in combat.)
Blarg trooper: You're going down, lombax!

Ratchet: Uh-oh, blarg. What are they doing here?

Clank: I have information in my data banks that poses a threat to Chairman Drek. He must have tracked my position to your planet so he could get it back.

(Upon approaching the swingshot target over the broken bridge gap.)
Qwark (narrating): Ratchet had to think fast. Perhaps the hookshot would solve his current conundrum?

(Upon using the swingshot to reach the other side of the broken bridge.)
Ratchet: Grim, listen to me! I want you to lock the garage doors and then head down into the shelter! I'll be there as soon as I can!

Grimroth Razz (communicator): Copy that, Ratchet!

(Upon defeating the three blarg.)
Ratchet: I think that's all of 'em.

(After crossing the gap using the two swingshot targets and being attacked by the blarg dropship.)
Ratchet: Whoa! Is that a blarg dropship?

Clank: Correct. Model X6Z to be exact. Also known as, "The Dropship of Death."

Ratchet: Great...

On-screen: +

On-screen:

Hold Sidestep
Hold / Fire

(After destroying the blarg dropship.)
Clank: Well done, Ratchet.

(After crossing the gap using the next two swingshot targets towards the garage.)
Blarg trooper (1): Of all the jobs Drek could've given us, we gotta look for some defect.

Blarg trooper (2): Ahh, it's not that bad. We got clean air, the warm heat of the sun—this is nature! We never had any of this back on— Ya-hahaha-ow!

Blarg trooper (1): What? What happened?!

Blarg trooper (2): Just got bit by a mosquito! Did you see the size of that thing?!

(After defeating one of the two blarg.)
Ratchet: Oh no, the blarg are all over Grim's garage. Grim—are you okay?

Grimroth Razz (communicator): I'm fine, kid. But I ain't opening up 'til the coast is clear.

Ratchet: Just hold tight, Grim. I got this.

(Upon reaching the closed garage door.)
Grimroth Razz (communicator): I've got you on holo-vid. There are more enemies moving in!

Clank: Incoming dropship detected.

(Warbots are deployed by the blarg dropship in front of the garage.)
Ratchet: Warbots!

Grimroth Razz (communicator): I'm down in the shelter. Ratchet, this place is a mess! Disassembled weapons and engine parts everywhere! Didn't you tell me you were gonna clean it up last week?!

Ratchet: Yeah, sorry 'bout that! Got held up on a project!

Grimroth Razz (communicator): "A Beginner's guide to Quantum Burst Engines"?

Ratchet: Just throw that anywhere! I have it bookmarked!

Grimroth Razz (communicator): Huh, what's this? "Fun With Singularities and Other Cataclysmic Events."

Ratchet: Heheh, that's really more for educational purposes!

Clank: It is always good to meet a fellow academic.

Ratchet: Really I just look at the pictures and then—you know, wing it.

(When a weapon levels up for the first time.)
On-screen: Damage enemies to increase your weapon level. Each new level opens new Raritanium upgrades.

(Once the blarg, warbots and dropship are all destroyed.)
Ratchet: All right, Grim. Coast is clear. Can you open up?

Grimroth Razz (communicator): Ratchet, what in Zoni's name just exploded?!

Ratchet: Sorry 'bout that Grim! Listen, get my tools ready. I just found something in the desert I need to look at.

Clank: Interesting. What kind of factory is this?

Ratchet: This? Oh this is just a garage. Lived here since I was a kid. C'mon—let's get you fixed up.

(Upon entering the opened garage.)
On-screen: All Available Objectives Completed

(Movie cutscene plays.)
Qwark (narrating): Once they were safe, Clank explained Drek's plan to attack the Hall of Heroes. With the Galactic Rangers out of the equation, Ratchet knew he had to help—even though neither he nor Clank had the upper body strength necessary for hero work.

Ratchet: I can totally help!

Clank: Oh, I could not ask a civilian to get involved in something so dangerous.

Ratchet: What? No, I'm not just a civilian! The Rangers are actually my uh... friends! Why do you think I have so many pictures of them?

Clank: But why are you not in any of them?

Ratchet: Well, someone had to take the picture, right? I mean come on—I even have a ship.

Ratchet: It... dis-assembles so it can infiltrate enemy strongholds, heh. So whaddaya say?

(The movie cutscene switches to an in-game cutscene.)
Ratchet: That's strange. I'm picking up something from Novalis.

Clank: It appears to be some sort of distress signal, but it is being jammed using a blargian signal dampener.

Ratchet: Don't worry, the computer would've told us if we were in any real danger.

Ship computer: Fatal crash imminent. Would you like to record your last will and testament?

Ratchet: Admittedly, that's not super promising.

Ratchet and Clank: Whhhhhaaaaaaaaaa!

Torbruk Crater, Novalis

(Cutscene plays.)
Ratchet and Clank: (distressed yelling)

Ratchet: Well, it's damaged, but, I've fixed worse. C'mon, maybe there's someone in town who can help us.

Find someone to help you repair your ship (gameplay)

(Upon approaching the raritanium near the Gadgetron vendor.)
Ratchet: Wait a second, is that raritanium? Maybe we should upgrade our weapons first.

(Upon breaking the raritanium ore and collecting it.)
Ratchet: Let's use that vendor and put this to good use.

(After entering the waterworks and the three stalactites fall from the ceiling.)
Ratchet or Clank: Look out!

(Whilst Ratchet uses the wall-jump.)
Qwark (narrating): Ratchet jumped. And jumped. And j— seriously, what's with all the jumping?

(Upon first jumping into water.)
On-screen: Dive

(Upon first diving underwater.)
On-screen: Surface

Qwark (narrating): Holding his breath, our intrepid lombax delves the depths of uh... deep-ness...

(Upon the oxygen gauge running low when underwater.)

Qwark (narrating)

• Try as he might, Ratchet could not breathe underwater.
• Of course, Ratchet knew he'd have to surface to breathe.

(Whilst in the hall just before reaching the Plumber.)
Plumber: Consarn it! These darn blarg have jammed the transmission! Who's gonna save us now?!

(Upon entering the room with the Plumber, a cutscene plays.)
Plumber: Oh, hello there! I'm glad you're here, I've been... heeey, have we met before? Cause I'm gettin' a touch of the ol' deja vu.

Ratchet: I don't think so...?

Plumber: Hmph, guess the ol' think tank could use a good plumbin', hahah! Anyhoo, I've been tryin' to get a distress call to the Galactic Rangers ever since Drek's forces showed up.

Ratchet: Uh, this entire region is overrun with blargian dropships. We need to get you outta here.

Plumber: Well I can't go anywhere until I get this here infobot into the hands of Captain Qwark.

Clank: We were on our way to speak with him when our ship was shot down. Perhaps we could take a look?

Plumber: Oh, sure thing! I swiped it from one of those blarg soldiers. Here ya go.

(Infobot video plays.)
Alonzo Drek: Oh, hello there. I'm Alonzo Drek, Chairman of Drek Industries.

Alonzo Drek: Many of you may be wondering, "Why are three hundred heavily-armed warbots marching ominously towards a class G dreadship?", heheheheh. The answer is simple, friends. Progress!

Alonzo Drek: Years ago we were driven underground by pollution that may or may not, but most definitely was caused by my father's company. Since then we've shifted focus from robotics... to planet building!

Alonzo Drek: Now that our project is nearing completion, we must do everything possible to stay on schedule. In this case, it means our friendly army of warbots must vanquish those who would seek to stop us. The good news? They don't know we're coming!

Alonzo Drek: So sit back, relax, and take comfort in the knowledge that Drek Industries is working for you!

Disclaimer: Drek Industries is not working for you.

(Infobot video ends.)
Plumber: I see you're havin' a little transportation trouble. Why don't I meet ya by your ship? We'll get you squared away and ready to fly.

Plumber: Geronimooooooo!

Ratchet: Did that guy just slide down a sewer pipe?

(After the cutscene has played and control of Ratchet is regained.)
Ratchet: Hm. Well it does look like the fastest way down. Let's give it a shot.

(Whilst sliding down the sewer pipe.)
Ratchet and Clank: (yelling and laughing)

(Upon reaching the entrance to the waterworks again.)
Ratchet: That was awesome! Wanna do it again?

(Upon approaching the Plumber now at the waterworks' entrance.)
On-screen: Talk

(Upon talking to the Plumber before completing "Defend the planet".)
Plumber: Ooh, looks like Mayor Buckwash is in trouble! We'll fix your ship in a bit, but right now he needs your help!

(Upon returning to the ship after meeting the Plumber and saving Mayor Buckwash.)
Plumber: Okay, let's see what we've got here...

(Cutscene plays.)
Qwark (narrating): And so, Ratchet and Clank set out to fix their ship with the help of the Plumber. Little did they know, they would soon come so close to greatness, they'd be able to hear its mighty biceps ripple. But first, they'd have to tackle a... brain-eating zombie T-Rex!

Brain-eating zombie T-Rex: (roars)

Solitary Bill (narrating): Heeey—wait a minute. I don't recall no "brain-eatin' zombie T-Rex."

Qwark (narrating): Okay, fine! Killjoy.

Plumber: Well, ya look about all fixed up here. Now promise me you'll get that infobot to Captain Qwark.

Ratchet: I promise. Thanks for your help.

Plumber: No problem. See ya in the next reboot!

(Upon completing all primary objectives but not optional ones.)
On-screen: All Primary Objectives Completed

(Upon approaching the ship.)
On-screen: Enter Ship

(Upon entering the ship and looking at the galactic map screen.)

Qwark (narrating)

• Ratchet and Clank were delighted to discover that their newly repaired ship now had an upgraded hyperspace navigation computer.
• Not only could they set their new destination, each planet came annotated with fun things to do, courtesy of the Freeloader's Galactic Almanac.

Defend the planet (gameplay)

(Whilst riding the floating platform down to the lower area.)
Ratchet: Whoa... that is a lotta bad guys.

(If having already met the Plumber in the waterworks.)
Plumber: Ohh, durn blarg! Shame on 'em invadin' a helpless, peaceful planet.

(Upon talking to the Plumber again without having saved Mayor Buckwash yet.)
Plumber: There's still more of 'em out there!

Agnogg Buckwash (loudspeaker)

• Attention citizens. You may have noticed we are in the midst of a small, insignificant invasion. We are working hard to contact the blarg so we can find a peaceful resolution, but until they return our calls, it's probably best to remain in your homes.
• Attention invading blarg. We have left you several messages regarding your invasion of this sector. I don't want to suggest that you are avoiding us, but just in case you didn't check your messages, there are quite a few waiting for you.
• Attention blarg. We still have not heard back from you regarding this unfortunate situation. I thought it might be technical difficulties on our side, so I picked up the phone to make sure I got a dial tone. Then I had a friend call me from a neighboring line, just to be sure there hadn't been a service interruption. Everything works on our side, so when you get a moment, give us a ring.
• Hey, blarg. It's me again, Mayor Buckwash, hahah. The phone rang and I picked up, but the other person hung up. Just thought it might have been you. When you're ready to discuss how to bring peace back to the sector, gimme a call.

(Whilst defeating enemies after having met the Plumber in the waterworks.)
Plumber: You're doin' great!

(Upon approaching the statue of Cora Verolux.)
Ratchet: Hey, that's a Cora Verolux statue! She's the youngest recruit ever to be selected for the Galactic Rangers!

(Upon destroying all enemies in the main courtyard area.)
Ratchet: I doubt that's the last of 'em.

(After crossing the bridge and walking through the archway towards the Mayor's ship.)
Clank: Oh dear, more of them!

Ratchet: That must be the Mayor's ship!

Agnogg Buckwash (loudspeaker): This is a transmission for the Galactic Rangers! Please, we need assistance! This is Agnogg Buckwash, Mayor of the Tobruk Crater of Novalis!

Clank: Mayor Buckwash will not last long without our help.

(Whilst fighting enemies around Buckwash's crashed ship.)
Agnogg Buckwash (loudspeaker): Rangers, come in! Anyone, come in! We're in danger!

(Upon destroying some of the enemies around Buckwash's ship.)
Blarg (communicator): Someone's taken out our advance team. Bravo team, move in and execute!

Agnogg Buckwash (loudspeaker): We are under attack! Please, send help!

(Upon defeating all enemies in the area.)
Agnogg Buckwash (loudspeaker): Hello? Is it safe to come out?

(Cutscene plays.)
Agnogg Buckwash: Thank you, thank you! I thought we were done for sure!

Clank: We are happy to be of assistance. Why is Drek trying to kill you?

Agnogg Buckwash: It's my nephew—Skidd McMarx.

Ratchet: Wait—Skidd McMarx, the pro-hoverboarder?

Agnogg Buckwash: He sent me this infobot from Aridia, and the blarg have been after me ever since.

Agnogg Buckwash: Here—take a look!

(Infobot video plays.)
Skidd McMarx: Hey, Uncle Buckwash! Skidd McMarx here. You know, your nephew.

Skidd McMarx: My agent and I are at the awesome grand opening of the McMarx Sports Shack here on Aridia, and boy has this been a trip! I've gotten to meet all kinds of people!

Skidd McMarx: Fans... Celebrities... My Gadgetron sponsors... I even got to sign autographs for these odd-looking creatures called "The blarg". Huh, I guess they're doing something here on Aridia. Wait, hold on a second...

Skidd McMarx: "Hyyyyydrooooo-harrrrrvester. Super-illegal Water Displacement Apparatus." Ummm, I don't think I was supposed to have this.

Blarg: Stop him! He's got the schematics!

Skidd McMarx: Heeelp! Someone, call my agent! Call my publicist! Actually, don't call either of those people—call someone who cares about me! I don't wanna diiiiie!

(Infobot video ends and control of Ratchet is regained.)
On-screen: Press to bring up the map.

Ratchet: Sounds like Skidd McMarx is in trouble, we gotta get to Aridia!

Clank: Agreed, but we must first repair our ship.

(If not yet having met the Plumber in the waterworks.)
Ratchet: Right. Okay, let's see if we can find some help.

(If having already met the Plumber in the waterworks.)
Plumber (communicator): Oh, ya did it! Thanks for savin' the sector, friend. Now come on back and we'll see about fixin' that ship.

(After the preceding dialogue.)
Agnogg Buckwash (loudspeaker): Attention citizens, your mayor is safe and sound. I was rescued by a furry hero and his robot friend. I will now resume regular office hours—which is every third Tuesday from ten to ten-thirty.

OPTIONAL: Search the caves for hidden treasure (gameplay)

(Upon first encountering amoeboids in the caves.)
Ratchet: What are these things?!

Clank: They appear to be amoeboids. According to my databanks, they were created by Drek Industries in order to assist the warbots.

(After emerging from the water pool and engaging more amoeboids in combat.)
Ratchet: More bad guys—get ready!

(Once more amoeboids enter the cave.)
Ratchet: They keep coming!

(Upon defeating all amoeboids in the area.)
Clank: All enemies clear. Well done!

(Upon destroying a cave wall leading to a holocard pack. Collecting the pack will complete the objective.)
Clank: You are very good at breaking things.

Ratchet: You know Grim once said the same thing.

(Upon jumping out of the water just before the exit door, after collecting the holocard pack.)
Ratchet: This must be the way out.

Aleero City, Kerwan

Deliver the Infobot to the Galactic Rangers (gameplay)

(Cutscene plays.)
Ratchet (communicator): We're too late—the invasion has started! Scan the emergency channels, we need to find out what's happening on the ground!

Elaris (communicator): Attention all units! The Hall of Heroes is under attack! Repeat, enemy ships are now in the central district of Aleero City! Galactic Rangers are under heavy fire at the Hall of Heroes. And there's a blarg transport closing in fast. Brace for warbot reinforcements, Rangers! All civilians, evacuate the area!

Destroy the Blarg Armored Transports (gameplay)

(Upon gaining control of the ship.)
Clank (communicator): We must assist the Galactic Rangers! Activating weapon systems.

Clank (communicator): Weapons online. You may now attack the transport.

On-screen:

/ Machine Gun
Barrel Roll
Boost

Brax Lectrus (communicator): We gotta take out that transport!

Cora Verolux (communicator): Everyone—attack the transport! Now!

(If Ratchet does not use the ship's weapons.)
Clank (communicator): Ratchet, now might be a good time to test those weapons systems...

(Whilst flying around the environment.)
On-screen: Inverted controls can be enabled in the Options menu

(Upon shooting pieces of the city environment.)

Ratchet (communicator)

• Oops, my fault—sorry.
• Sorry! My thumb slipped.
• Uh, sorry! Trying to stop an invasion!

Elaris (communicator): Check your fire!

(Upon shooting down a blarg saucer.)

Ratchet (communicator)

• Got him!
• Got another one!
• That was awesome! Did you see that?!

(Upon the ship first sustaining too much damage and reaching low health.)
Ship computer: Warning. Warning. Warning.

Ratchet (communicator): Oh, that's not good...

Clank (communicator): It appears we can repair our ship with the nanotech those blarg saucers leave behind.

(Upon the ship being damaged and reaching low health.)

Ship computer

• Warning. Warning. Warning.
• Alert. Alert. Engine damage detected.
• Warning. Catastrophic system failure detected.

(If the ship takes damage from hitting the environment.)

Ratchet (communicator)

• Yugh! My bad...
• Oops! Sorry!
• Mr. Micron is not gonna like this...
• That's gonna add some points to my license.

(Whilst the ship's health is low.)

Clank (communicator)

• Oh dear, we need to repair the ship!
• Oh, dear. You may want to employ evasive maneuvers.
• Ratchet, the ship is badly damaged. We must locate some nanotech!
• Our ship is damaged, we may obtain nanotech from attacking the smaller saucers.

Elaris (communicator)

• Hey, your ship is damaged. Shoot the saucers to find nanotech!
• Some of those saucers have nanotech—shoot them if your ship needs repair.

(Upon collecting nanotech and repairing damage to the ship.)
Ship computer: Ship repaired.

(Upon collecting nanotech and restoring the ship back to full health.)
Ship computer: All systems restored.

(When the ship is destroyed.)

Ratchet (communicator)

• We're goin' down!
• We're breakin' up!
• Oh boy—we're goin' down!

Clank (communicator)

• Power failure imminent...
• Altitude level critical...
• Hull integrity compromised...

(Upon firing on the blarg armored transport.)
Elaris (communicator): Captain, we have an unidentified ship providing assistance!

(Upon destroying the blarg armored transport.)
Elaris (communicator): Transport down!

Ratchet (communicator): Yeah!

Elaris (communicator): Whoever you are—thank you.

(Five more blarg armored transports are deployed into the city.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): More transports!

Elaris (communicator): Those transports are dropping off warbots all over the city!

Ratchet (communicator): Not on my watch.

(If Ratchet does not attack the blarg armored transports.)

Ratchet (communicator)

• Gotta take out those transports.
• We're the only ones that can take out those transports, we gotta help!

Clank (communicator)

• We must destroy those transports!
• Ratchet, we must stay focused on those transports.
• It appears that even more warbots are en route via armored transports.
• It looks like those armored transports are delivering reinforcements to the attacking warbots.

(Upon destroying one of the five blarg armored transports.)
Ratchet (communicator): Blarg transport down!

Elaris (communicator): He took out another ship!

Qwark (communicator): Whoever's doing heroic things up there—this is our turf!

Cora Verolux (communicator): No offense, Captain, but we kinda need the help right now.

(Upon destroying two of the five blarg armored transports.)
Ratchet (communicator): Another transport down.

Clank (communicator): It appears there are only three ships left.

(Upon destroying three of the five blarg armored transports.)
Ratchet (communicator): Yeah, another one down!

Elaris (communicator): Just two more ships!

(Upon destroying four of the five blarg armored transports.)
Ratchet (communicator): Yes! We're on a roll!

Elaris (communicator): One ship left!

(Upon destroying the fifth and final blarg armored transport.)
Ratchet (communicator): That's the last of 'em!

Elaris (communicator): Thanks, guys—looks like you got all the transports. But we still gotta take out that warship...

Clank (communicator): Hmm. The warbots' armor is made of a raritanium alloy. If we could propel a warbot at the ship with sufficient velocity, I believe it would penetrate the hull.

Ratchet (communicator): Awesome! Ehh... how do we do that?

Clank (communicator): Your weapon package includes a Mag Booster. I am rewriting the software to isolate the warbots' armor...

Clank (communicator): Hah, there. You should now be able to pick up warbots using the Mag Booster.

Ratchet (communicator): Okay, let's try this out.

On-screen: HOLD

On-screen:

/ Fire Warbots
Use Magnet

(Upon holding to use the Mag Booster.)
Ratchet (communicator): Mag Booster active!

Take down the Warship (gameplay)

Clank (communicator): There should be some warbots nearby—you can now pick them up and pull them toward the warship.

(When the ship flies within range over a group of warbots.)

Ratchet (communicator)

• Hit it!
• Engage!
• Activate Mag Booster!

(Upon picking up warbots using the Mag Booster.)

Ratchet (communicator)

• We got some!
• Gotcha! Ha-hah!
• Okay, warbots, hang on tight!
• Hey, warbots, time to go home!
• Warbots in tow. Now let's head toward that warship.
• Got 'em! Now let's send them back to where they came from.

Clank (communicator)

• Warbots attached!
• Warbots successfully magnetized. Setting course for blarg warship.

(After picking up less than the maximum of twelve warbots using the Mag Booster.)
Ratchet (communicator): We can pick up a few more—gotta make another pass.

Clank (communicator)

• There is enough power to pick up more warbots.
• We have enough power for a few more warbots if you make another pass.

(Upon the Mag Booster reaching the max carrying capacity of twelve warbots.)
Ratchet (communicator): Looks like that's all we can handle.

Clank (communicator)

• All resources consumed—we cannot carry any more warbots.
• System fully utilized. We may not engage any additional warbots.

(When approaching the warship whilst carrying warbots with the Mag Booster.)

Ratchet (communicator)

• Get ready...
• Locking on!
• Wait for it...
• Steady... steady...

(Upon aiming at the warship whilst carrying warbots with the Mag Booster.)

Ratchet (communicator)

• Now!
• Release!
• Release warbots!

(Upon launching warbots at the warship.)

Ratchet (communicator)

• See ya!
• Warbots away!
• Return to sender!

(Each time after the launched warbots have damaged the warship.)

Ratchet (communicator)

• Yes!
• Hah!
• Boom!
• Yeah!
• Sweet.
• Yeah! That one hurt!

(After first launching warbots at the warship and damaging it.)
Elaris (communicator): Holy cow—that was awesome!

Clank (communicator): Well done, Ratchet!

Ratchet (communicator): Ha-hahh! One in a million! Let's do it again.

(After launching some warbots at the warship.)

• Brax Lectrus (communicator): We're in trouble here.
  Qwark (communicator): Keep fighting, Rangers!
• Cora Verolux (communicator): There's too many of 'em!
  Ratchet: The Hall of Heroes is covered in warbots!

(After picking up warbots at the Hall of Heroes and launching them at the warship.)

Brax Lectrus (communicator)

• Keep it up, we're almost there!
• Whatever you're doing, it's working!

Cora Verolux (communicator): There's just a few left—keep at it!

Qwark (communicator)

• Impressive, but my perseverance will defeat these warbots. Eventually.
• Well done, anonymous stranger. But remember, there can only be one hero—me.

(After significantly reducing the warship's health.)
Clank (communicator): I believe the warship has sustained critical damage.

Ratchet (communicator): Yeah! One more hit should do it.

(Upon destroying the warship.)
Ratchet (communicator): Warship down! We did it!

Cora Verolux (communicator): Way to go, whoever you are!

(Movie cutscene plays.)
Crowd: (murmuring)

Crowd: (cheering)

Qwark: All right, everyone, let's give these heroes some breathing room. I'm happy to field all questions on their behalf.

Dallas Wannamaker: Dallas Wannamaker here. Does this mean you'll be asking these two heroes to join the Rangers?

Qwark: Say what now?

Qwark: (gasps)

Ratchet: Eh-heheheh...

Qwark: Well I don't... see why not?

Crowd: (cheering)

(The movie cutscene switches to an in-game cutscene.)
Qwark (narrating): And that is how dumb luck helped a rookie lombax take out a blargian warship.

Solitary Bill: That weren't no "dumb luck." He and that robot made a great pair.

Qwark: That's enough outta you, Solitary Bill! Sheesh, you give a guy your pudding cup once and then you can never get rid of him.

Shiv Helix: So, what happened next?

Qwark (narrating): Well, Drek didn't take too kindly to having his plan ruined by a lombax and his robot pal. So he sent blargian mercenaries to take them out.

Ratchet: Clank, look out!

Ratchet: Uaugh! (pained grunts)

Ratchet: You all right, pal?

Find a route to the Hall of Heroes (gameplay)

(Upon regaining control of Ratchet.)
Clank: All systems operational. But we should get back to the Hall of Heroes.

Brax Lectrus (communicator): Hey, Ratchet, where'd you go? We're supposed to start your training in a few minutes.

Ratchet: Sorry, Brax. Clank and I ran into a bit of, eh... ship trouble. Looks like there's still a few blarg in the city.

Cora Verolux (communicator): We must have missed them during our sweep of the perimeter. Brax, you'd better check the Hall of Heroes and make sure they didn't make it inside.

Brax Lectrus (communicator): Copy that!

Cora Verolux (communicator): In the meantime, there's a friend not far from your position who can help you out. His name's Al. I was gonna wait until after training to introduce you, but now's as good a time as any. Find him and ask him to upgrade Clank. If he knows it's for the Rangers, he should do it for free.

Ratchet: Is that the holocard guy? Yeah, we know about him.

(After acquiring more than four weapons.)
On-screen: To customize your loadout, hold a direction and select a weapon with .

(Heard throughout the area.)

Qwark (loudspeaker recording)

• Welcome, weary traveler, to Aleero City.
• Captain Qwark here, reminding you that I've got your back. You're welcome.
• I'm Captain Qwark, and I just wanted to say, you're all looking awesome today.
• Citizens of Aleero City. I know when you think of me, you think of power. Bravado. The kind of raw machismo that sends criminals scurrying into the shadows. And you should. Because I am just that good.
• Have a wrong that needs to be righted? An injustice that needs to be remedied? Call the Galactic Rangers! No problem is too big, no problem is too small. Well, some problems are too small. We have to prioritize, right? So if like your cat ran away and there's an invasion on Kerwan, chances are we need to take the invasion. But otherwise, no problem's too small!

(After a blarg dropship has deployed more troopers.)
Blarg commander: Keep your eyes peeled. That lombax and the defect could be anywhere.

(Upon approaching the Trespasser terminal before having acquired it from Rilgar.)
On-screen: Trespasser Required.

(Whilst fighting the blarg just before the bridge.)
Blarg commander: Call in aerial support!

(Whilst descending the stairs towards Al's Roboshack.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Hey, Ratchet. Are you at Al's place yet?

Ratchet: Almost there!

(Upon reaching the bottom of the stairs.)
Blarg trooper: Oh, my back is killing me... You'd think he would've had Victor Von Ion drag that bomb up to the train.

Blarg commander: You wanna be the one to tell Mr. Von Ion what he should be doing?

Blarg trooper: Do I look like I have a death wish? I'm just sayin' we ain't equipped for something of this magnitude. Do you have experience handling a pyrocidic omni-bomb? 'Cause I don't. I was a hair dresser back on Quartu!

(Whilst fighting blarg outside of Big Al's Roboshack.)
Big Al (loudspeaker): Who's out there?! Don't make me call the authorities!

Big Al (loudspeaker): I am seven levels into "Unicop 2: Return of Unicop", and so help me, if I have to put down this controller...!

Big Al (loudspeaker): That's it! I'm saving my game! Pausing, accessing menu, selecting options, save game... progress bar, progress bar, progress bar, (groans), annnnnnd saved! That's it! I'm calling the Galactic Rangers!

Big Al (loudspeaker): This is your last chance! Well, there may be one more if I advance my character to level nine, but otherwise—this is your last chance!

(Upon approaching Big Al's Roboshack.)
Ratchet: That must be Big Al's place!

(Upon hitting the switch on the wall to open the door of Big Al's Roboshack, a cutscene plays.)
Ratchet: Holy cow...! I've died and gone to nerd heaven!

Ratchet: Look at this—they have "My Blaster Runs Hot," "Fongoid with a Stick," ooh, "Speero the Space Moose," they even have the Mega-Limited Ultra Edition of "Intransigence: Fall of Blarg!"

Big Al: (clears throat) That one comes with exclusive content if you preordered through Gadgetron.

Big Al: I take it you're the ones Cora called me about? The ones in need of a new helipack upgrade?

Clank: You must be Big Al—it is nice to meet you. I am Clank. This is Ratchet.

Big Al: Well, any friend of Cora's is a friend of mine. She and I kind of have a will-we, won't-we romance in progress.

Ratchet: Uh-huh...

Big Al: Hop onto my workbench—I'll get you all squared away.

Big Al: Just reattaching the sisterboard, connecting the data port, and... presto! Try it out.

Ratchet: Looking good, pal!

Find a train to the Hall of Heroes (gameplay)

(Upon regaining control of Ratchet.)
Big Al: Getting back to the Hall of Heroes is easy. Just head this way until you find the grav-train station. That'll take you straight back.

Ratchet: Thanks again, Big Al!

Dallas Wannamaker (radio): Breaking news coming out of Kerwan's famous Aleero City! This afternoon blarg forces attacked the Hall of Heroes in a daring attempt to assassinate the Galactic Rangers! The assault was put to a thrilling end thanks to the work of a lombax named Ratchet and his friend... am I reading this right? "Clank"? Here's the official statement from local hero Captain Qwark.

Qwark (radio): I just want everyone to know that the Galactic Rangers have everything under control. I've spoken with President Phyronix personally, and he's given me the go-ahead to bring Chairman Drek to justice for his actions.

Dallas Wannamaker (radio): Up next: The Comments Section. How you can add meaning to your life by anonymously attacking people you've never met. Stay with us.

Blarg trooper (1): Did you get the "you-know-what" aboard the train?

Blarg trooper (2): Yes, captain. The Galactic Rangers are gonna get the surprise of their lives when that train pulls into the station.

Blarg trooper (1): Huh, they better. Drek is awful mad about what happened to his warbots. If we don't get this done, heads are gonna roll—and I like my head exactly where it is.

(After defeating all blarg enemies and approaching the elevator.)
Clank: We are not far from the train station.

Ride the train to the Hall of Heroes (gameplay)

On-screen: Gold Bolts unlock Extras. View them from the Pause menu.

Qwark (narrating): And here Ratchet finds his very first gold bolt. Let's savor the moment. (inhales) Okay, enough savoring. Moving on.

(Upon looking at the statue of Qwark behind the gold bolt.)
Qwark (narrating): Ratchet stood and appreciated the tribute to greatness—which really shouldn't be hidden away in the corner like this...!

(Upon approaching the train at the station.)
Ratchet: There it is! Come on, let's hitch a ride.

(Upon defeating all blarg enemies at the station.)
Computer (loudspeaker): Attention travelers. Grav-Train D is about to depart. Next stop: The Hall of Heroes.

Clank: Ratchet, we must get to that train!

(Upon swingshotting up onto the train.)
Computer (loudspeaker): Please stand clear, the A train is now departing.

(Whilst traveling along the moving train.)
Blarg commander (communicator): Chairman Drek wants that payload delivered to the Hall of Heroes pronto!

Ratchet: C'mon, Clank. Let's make sure that doesn't happen.

(Upon reaching the base of some high crates.)
On-screen: HOLD

(Upon encountering a blarg commander by a bolt crank.)
Blarg commander: What is that, a squirrel?

(After hitting the switch to uncouple and destroy the two fighter jets.)
Ratchet: Heh, I hope that didn't cost too much.

(Whilst hanging from a pipe or ledge that can be shimmied along.)
On-screen:

Ratchet: I'm sure there's a very good reason for transporting killer fish...

(After reaching the top of the sharkigator and puffoid holding tanks.)
Blarg commander: Call in aerial support!

(Upon jumping onto the train section with flailing tentacles.)
Ratchet: Whoa, live animals onboard!

(After destroying the blarg attack copter and jumping to the next section of the train.)
Clank: Ratchet, that bomb has a five kiloton payload. Detonating it near the Hall of Heroes will be catastrophic.

Ratchet: Then we better move fast.

(Whilst fighting blarg enemies just before the bomb.)
Blarg commander (communicator): Kill the lombax! Don't let him get near the bomb!

(After defeating the blarg enemies protecting the bomb.)
Clank: Those bombs appear to be proximity triggered. They will detonate on arriving at the Hall of Heroes!

Ratchet: I see. Then it's time for an early drop off.

(After turning the bolt crank to decouple the bomb from the train, a cutscene plays.)
Ratchet: Brax, come in. We're arriving at the Hall of Heroes.

Brax Lectrus (communicator): Copy that, Ratchet. I'll meet you at the front entrance and we'll begin your training.

(The in-game cutscene switches to a movie cutscene.)
Brax Lectrus: We've been cleared to attack Drek Industries in three days. That means you two are getting the accelerated course.

Elaris: Ha! That's right, Lives-at-home-472. What's the matter? Don't like getting your butt kicked?!

Brax Lectrus: Hey, Elaris.

Elaris: Hi, Brax!

Brax Lectrus: Elaris here is in charge of developing our gear and providing tactical support.

Elaris: Usually it's the former. The Rangers are the shoot-first-think-later type, heheh. I'm sorry, I didn't mean it to sound like that.

Brax Lectrus: Like what now?

Elaris: C'mon, I'll show you around.

Brax Lectrus: Let's go, cadet. Time to make you a Ranger.

Ratchet: I'll see ya in a bit!

Elaris: We're gonna have so much fun!

Qwark: Your protosuit is the most advanced combat armor on the market, and it comes in all the latest fall colors!

Ratchet: Sweet...!

(The movie cutscene switches to another in-game cutscene.)
Ratchet: This is awesome! So what next? HALO jump into enemy territory? Sub-orbital combat training?

Brax Lectrus: In time, rookie. Next up is basic training.

Brax Lectrus: The captain designed this fitness course to help us reach our top physical condition.

Brax Lectrus: Good luck.

Complete fitness course (gameplay)

(Upon approaching Brax.)

Brax Lectrus

• Hit that course, rook!
• C'mon, show us what you got!
• C'mon, rookie. We all went through the course—it's your turn now!

(Upon looking at the gold statue of Qwark in front of the Hall of Heroes.)
Qwark (narrating): Our heroes paused and gazed upon the mighty statue of... me.

On-screen: Captain Qwark's Fitness Course

Qwark bot: Greetings, cadets! And welcome to the Captain Qwark Fitness Course! Here you'll work on your physical strength as well as your, uh... "thinking" strength!

Qwark bot: Are you ready to get started? Then let's go!

(Upon hitting the Qwark bot.)

Qwark bot

• Watch it! I'm Galactic Ranger property!
• Why are you so violent? Do you expect some sort of extra points or something?

(Upon reaching the top of the first tower.)
Qwark bot: Congratulations on reaching the Summit of Justice! Your quadriceps must be burning with righteousness. And pain.

(Upon reaching the base of the second tower.)
Qwark bot: It's time to ascend to the Tower of Power! Here you must leap from platform to platform, but tread lightly! These pieces will move to one position, and then without so much as a warning, shift to an entirely different position!

(Upon reaching the top of the second tower.)
Qwark bot: Congratulations! You've conquered the Tower of Power! Head to the main platform to claim your prize, Ranger.

(After gliding to the end of the fitness course and reaching the final Qwark bot.)

Qwark bot

• Nice work, cadet!
• My training course not only builds muscle, it builds character!
• The last cadet that got this far went on to become... nothing. But the guy before that—oh yeah, same thing. Guess this training course isn't very good at training...

(Upon jumping onto the taxi at the end of the fitness course.)
On-screen: Exit Fitness Course

(Whilst riding the taxi back to the Hall of Heroes.)
Qwark (communicator): I see you just finished my training course! Aren't you just full of... stuff you can do. Meet me outside the Hall of Heroes, I have an assignment for you.

(After arriving back at the front of the Hall of Heroes.)

Qwark

• Over here, Ranger!
• I'm waiting by your ship. Verrrry patiently...
• Rally up, Ranger—over here!

(Upon approaching Qwark by the ship at the landing pad, a cutscene plays.)
Qwark: Since you're now... one of us, I thought it was time to get you a new ride.

Ratchet: Whoa... a class-G Star Jumper! Is this for me?

Qwark: Technically it's Galactic Ranger property, but if you survive—err, complete this super-secret-yet-completely-on-the-level mission, she'll be yours to use however you like.

Clank: What is this "secret mission"?

Qwark: I call it "Operation: Falling Star."

(Infobot video plays.)
Qwark: Congratulations, cadet. You've been selected for Operation: Falling Star!

Qwark: Galactic Ranger intel tells us Chairman Drek has a state-of-the-art weapons lab in Nebula G34. Your mission is to destroy his top secret project without—and this is important—telling anyone. Ever. Seriously, this is our little secret.

Ratchet: Sure, but, I don't see why—

Qwark: Please save your questions until the end of the presentation.

Qwark: You'll need to access Drek's laboratory using a Trespasser, your wits, and the kind of fortitude normally found in more "seasoned" Rangers. Get in, destroy whatever he's working on, and get out. I'll monitor your position from here. Good luck.

(Infobot video ends and control of Ratchet is regained.)
Qwark (communicator): I wish I could be there to see you off, but I have an urgent appointment with my acupuncturist. Call me when you arrive at Nebula G34. I'm counting on you, Ratchet.

Ratchet: You got it, Captain!

Outpost X11, Aridia

Locate Skidd McMarx (gameplay)

(Upon exiting the ship and regaining control of Ratchet.)
Clank: Wait, is that Skidd McMarx up ahead?

Skidd McMarx

• Augh! Someone help me!
• Augh! Sandsharks!
• Oh, dude, this is so weak.
• Somebody call my agent!

(Upon later returning to the starting area using the teleporter.)
Qwark (narrating): The heroes knew that Skidd McMarx was nearby—but where? Where, I ask you?!

(Upon approaching Skidd, a cutscene plays.)
Skidd McMarx: Oh man, am I happy you two dudes showed! I've been out here all night!

Ratchet: I can't believe it—Skidd McMarx! I have seen every one of your races! You pulled off a triple-nova spin at mach-two at last year's Kerwan Cup!

Skidd McMarx: It's always good to meet a fan, little dude.

Clank: I am Clank. This is Ratchet. Your uncle received your infobot and asked us to assist you.

Skidd McMarx: Ohh, I was wonderin' if he got that. My agent and I have been runnin' from those blarg all night. Only we ended up gettin' separated in the chaos, and I took a gnarly fall gettin' out of the Skidd McMarx Sports Shack.

Skidd McMarx: Hey! Think you dudes can clear out the sandsharks so I can get to my ship? I'll give ya my hoverboard if ya do.

Ratchet: Whoa, a real McMarx 4000?! Consider it done.

Help Skidd get to his ship (gameplay)

(Upon regaining control of Ratchet.)
Skidd McMarx: Watch out for those sandsharks, bro!

(Upon returning to Aridia without having completed the objective.)
Skidd McMarx (communicator): Hey, can you dudes help me out with these sandsharks?

(Upon returning to Skidd without having cleared out all the sandsharks.)

Skidd McMarx

• I can't go out there, man—there are sandsharks!
• There's still a few sandsharks out there, little dude. Think you can take care of 'em?
• If you can clear out all those sandsharks, this sweet hoverboard is all yours!

(Sometimes upon defeating a sandshark near Skidd.)

Skidd McMarx

• Whoa, that was awesome!
• You got skill, little dude.

(If Ratchet has not cleared out the sandsharks on the upper plateau area yet.)

Skidd McMarx (communicator)

• Sandsharks, on the plateau!
• There are a few more on the plateau, little furry dude!
• Looks like there are a few sandsharks up there on the plateau. Think you can take care of 'em?

(If Ratchet has not cleared out the sandsharks by the quicksand area yet.)
Skidd McMarx (communicator): There's one over by the quicksand!

(When there are still sandsharks left to clear out.)
Skidd McMarx (communicator): There's another sandshark right there!

(Whilst Ratchet is inside the sandshark area.)

Skidd McMarx (communicator)

• Ah! There's one right next to me!
• This sector is still crawlin' with sandsharks. I don't s'pose you dudes could help me get rid of 'em?

(When there are thirty sandsharks left.)
Skidd McMarx (communicator): You're doin' great, dudes! Just a few more left.

Skidd McMarx (communicator): Hey, are you dudes, like, hungry? 'Cause when this is over I could go for some food. Y'know, like a cheeseburger, or some space pizza. I think Qwark's Grub Grab still delivers this late.

(Upon reaching the area just before Skidd's ship.)
Ratchet: Look up there! That must be Skidd's ship!

(Upon reaching Skidd's ship without having cleared out all the sandsharks yet.)
Clank: I believe there are a few sandsharks left.

(Upon leaving the area without having cleared out all the sandsharks.)
Skidd McMarx: Wait! Come back! There's still some sandsharks out here!

(Once all eighty-eight sandsharks have been cleared out.)
Skidd McMarx (communicator): Hah! You got 'em all! Nice work, little dudes!

(Cutscene plays.)
Skidd McMarx: That was pretty awesome! Thanks for your help. Here's your hoverboard.

Ratchet: Whoa, and it's autographed! "To Ratchet and Clank, the chillest dudes I've ever hung out with on a hostile alien planet." Cool...

Clank: Will you be able to get home on your own?

Skidd McMarx: I'll be okay. Though I don't think I'll be able to compete in the Blackwater City Hoverboard Competition. Kind of a bummer, dude.

(If "Find Skidd's Agent" has not been completed yet.)
Skidd McMarx: Hey, have either of you little dudes seen my agent? I feel kinda bad leavin' him out here. He doesn't do well with nature.

(Upon approaching Skidd by his ship.)

Skidd McMarx

• Aw, dude, I hope this isn't a career-ending injury.
• Y'know, maybe I should try puttin' my weight on it—Yowww! That was ill-advised, man...
• You got skill, little dude.

(If "Find Skidd's Agent" has not been completed yet.)
Clank: We should search the area for Skidd's agent. He may need our assistance.

Find Skidd's Agent (gameplay)

(Upon returning to Aridia without having completed the objective.)
Qwark (narrating): Ratchet and Clank knew that Skidd's agent was short on time. If the sandsharks found him before they did, Wonderstar would be doomed.

(Upon traversing the path towards the under construction sports shack.)
Computer (loudspeaker): Attention, future consumer. While the Skidd McMarx Sports Shack appreciates your enthusiasm, you are now trespassing in a restricted area. Please vacate the construction site.

(Upon reaching the entrance to the under construction sports shack.)
On-screen: McMarx Sports Shack

(A second constructo bot descends an elevator to attack Ratchet.)
Ratchet: Uh-oh, reinforcements!

(Once the two attacking constructo bots have both been destroyed.)
Ratchet: That's the last of 'em.

Clank: That was impressive.

(Upon ascending on the elevator and entering the construction site.)
Computer (loudspeaker): Attention, future consumer. We thank you for your interest in the Skidd McMarx Sports Shack. However, your refusal to leave has forced us to activate the constructo bots. Have a nice day.

(Whilst traversing the conveyor belt path to the right of the entrance.)
Computer (loudspeaker): Intrusion detected in sector four. Dispatching constructo bots.

(At the end of the conveyor belt path, a constructo bot ascends on an elevator.)
Ratchet: They keep coming!

(Upon destroying the constructo bot.)
Clank: I believe we are clear.

(Upon heading to descend on the elevator.)
Computer (loudspeaker): Attention, future consumer. The finest selection of hoverboards, grav-bikes, and gyro-cycles will not be in stock until next fall. The only thing waiting for you here is death.

Skidd McMarx (loudspeaker recording): Hey! Skidd McMarx here, and as you know I'm a naturally talented hoverboarder. You know what else is natural about me? Find out by visiting our "Herbal Supplements" department. You'll thank me later, man. No, seriously, you will.

(Upon first approaching a climable ledge.)
Qwark (narrating): Ratchet would have to channel hours of training to hang from this deadly ledge.

(Whilst shimmying along the yellow ledge.)
Blarg trooper: Your client has information that belongs to Chairman Drek! Come on, don't make this hard on yourself. Give him up, and no one gets hurt.

Don Wonderstar: I'm tellin' ya, I don't know where he is! You know celebrities these days, they do whatever they want! We can work this out, can't we?

Blarg trooper: Oh, we'll work it out. By feeding you to the sandsharks! Hahahahaha!

(Upon reaching the area where Skidd's agent is being attacked by the blarg.)
Don Wonderstar: Help! These brutes are tryin' to kill me!

(A blarg dropship flies in to deploy reinforcements.)
Don Wonderstar: Augh! There's more of them! Hey, get them off my back and I'll make you famous!

(Upon defeating a blarg trooper.)
Don Wonderstar: Now that's impressive! Have either of you thought about a career in professional sports?

(Once all blarg enemies in the area have been defeated.)
Don Wonderstar: Good work, kid! I think that's all of them.

(Upon saving Skidd's agent and not yet having completed "Help Skidd get to his ship".)
Don Wonderstar: Boy, am I happy to see a coupla friendly faces. I've been running from those blarg all night!

Ratchet: Hey, you're that famous sports agent—Don Wonderstar!

Don Wonderstar: You got that right, kid. Listen, I gotta big problem. I'm supposed to take Skidd McMarx to the Blackwater City Hoverboard Competition on Rilgar, and this place is crawling with sandsharks! Skidd's gotta be near the ship—I just need someone to help clear out these sandsharks so I can get to him. Think you can help me out?

(If "Locate Skidd McMarx" has not been completed yet.)
Ratchet: No problem.

(If "Help Skidd get to his ship" has not been completed yet.)
Ratchet: Oh yeah, we just met Skidd back by his ship.

(After both of the preceding dialogue.)
Ratchet: Wait here, we'll take care of it.

Don Wonderstar: You two are true heroes. I mean that.

(Upon regaining control of Ratchet.)
Don Wonderstar: Skidd's my star client—please, find him!

(Upon approaching Skidd's agent.)

Don Wonderstar

• You two are gonna be huge! Holo-films, holo-games, the works!
• I think I found my new clients!
• There are still sandsharks out there, be a sport and clear them out. Skidd's probably wondering what happened to me!
• There are still a few more of them out there. Go ahead and clear them out, I gotta make a few calls.

(Upon reaching the thrusterbolt after ascending the nearby magnesurface.)
On-screen: Thrusterpack Required

Qwark (narrating): This thrusterbolt would remain inoperable until Ratchet found a thrusterpack.

(Upon standing on the teleporter by Skidd's agent.)
On-screen: Return to Ship

(Upon standing on the teleporter now next to the ship.)
On-screen: Return to Agent's Camp

(Upon saving Skidd's agent and having already completed "Help Skidd get to his ship".)
Don Wonderstar: Hey, you must be the two heroes who saved my client, huh? Don't tell me, don't tell me—Socket and Clink?

Ratchet: Ratchet and Clank.

Don Wonderstar: Right, right, beautiful. Sprocket and Plank. I like the sound of it. Real marketing potential—I can sell that!

Don Wonderstar: Uh listen, my client and I got separated in our somewhat hasty trek back to the ship. I'd go meet up with him but, this place is crawling with sandsharks. Think you can help me out?

Clank: You have nothing to fear, sir. The sandsharks have been dealt with.

Don Wonderstar: Beautiful, beautiful! You two have heart. I can sell that!

Clank: We are always happy to assist.

(Cutscene plays after completing both "Help Skidd get to his ship" and "Find Skidd's Agent".)
Skidd McMarx: We really appreciate you helpin' us out.

Clank: So where are you off to now?

Skidd McMarx: A hospital, I guess. Gotta get this leg checked out.

Don Wonderstar: A hospital? Skidd, come on, you've been through worse! What are we gonna do about your sponsors?

Skidd McMarx: Ummm, I'm beginnin' to think you don't, like, care about me or whatever.

Don Wonderstar: (sighs) Fine! Uh what about you, Wrenchy?

Ratchet: Ratchet.

Don Wonderstar: Exactly. You want to be a hoverboard star? This infobot will give you all the details. Just tell 'em Don Wonderstar sent ya.

(Infobot video plays.)
Dallas Wannamaker: It's that time again! The annual Blackwater City Hoverboard Competition on planet Rilgar!

Dallas Wannamaker: Are you a young thrill-seeker looking to show off your hoverboard skills? Then blast on over to Rilgar, and experience the pulse-pounding thrill of doing mach three on a rocket-powered piece of plastic!

Dallas Wannamaker: How exciting is the race? Just listen to some of our previous champions!

Chester St. Cloud: I never miss the Blackwater City Hoverboard Competition! Uh, except for next year's... Ahh, I probably won't make that one.

Apollo Hicks: I can't feel my toes! Is that normal?

Griff Blastex: Mmdmdmdhf-hmsmsm-hmmdmph!

Dallas Wannamaker: We're offering cash prizes and holocards to the winners. So head to planet Rilgar and take a shot at the most extreme sporting event in the galaxy! And try not to die.

(Infobot video ends and control of Ratchet is regained.)
Skidd McMarx (communicator): Thanks again for the help, bros. I'll see you 'round the system!

Ratchet: Wow, we just saved a celebrity! I wanna check out that hoverboard competition.

(If "Locate the gadget inside the McMarx Sports Shack" has not been completed yet.)
Clank: Ratchet, we should explore the rest of the Sports Shack.

(If all available objectives have been completed.)
Clank: We should head back to the ship.

Locate the gadget inside the McMarx Sports Shack (gameplay)

(Upon returning to Aridia without having acquired the Hydrodisplacer yet.)
Qwark (narrating): Ratchet and Clank returned to Aridia. Their mission? Locate the critical gadget they would need to continue their adventure.

(Upon approaching the entrance to the path leading to the Hydrodisplacer.)
Clank: My sensors are picking up a strange energy signature near the swingshot targets. I believe it may be a gadget from Drek Industries.

Ratchet: All right, let's have a look around.

(If "Help Skidd get to his ship" has been completed.)
Skidd McMarx (communicator): Aww, I see you two dudes found my store. Hey, it doesn't look like much now, but it's gonna be awesome! We're gonna have hoverboards, a swingshot course, and even a 24-hour taco stand for those late night munchy-munch attacks.

(Upon returning to the ship without completing the objective yet.)

Clank

• Ratchet, we should track the source of the energy signature before leaving. If the gadget is important to Drek, we may find it useful.
• Perhaps we should explore Skidd's Sports Shack again. There may be something useful there.

(Whilst traversing the path using the swingshot targets.)

Skidd McMarx (loudspeaker recording)

• Ya-ha, Skidd McMarx here! Hey, don't let old man winter bum you out—visit our snowboard department and pick up the latest in snow-shredding technology. It's never too cold to be cool!
• You ready to catch some waves? Aww, tubular! Dudes, have I got a deal for you—just head over to the Pro Surf department, say the secret phrase, "Whoa, dude...", and get five percent off your next purchase. Whoa, dude...
• Hey, it's Skidd here! You know anybody can buy stuff and look cool, but unless you sound cool, you won't be cool. So check out our class schedule and sign up for a "Cool Seminar", where you'll learn to look, sound and even smell cool. Like me! Ahaw!

(Upon collecting the Hydrodisplacer.)
Qwark (narrating): Ratchet and Clank found a portable Hydrodisplacer. Designed by Dr. Nefarious, this ingenious device promised to move water from one place... to the other.

(When standing at a receptacle to use the Hydrodisplacer.)
On-screen: Connect Hydrodisplacer

(If Ratchet does not proceed with using the Hydrodisplacer.)
Clank: Perhaps we should try that Hydrodisplacer.

(After filling the Hydrodisplacer and approaching the second receptacle.)
Qwark (narrating): With just a push of a button, the duo could now fill an entire swimming pool.

(Upon using the Hydrodisplacer on the second pipe and filling the receptacle with water.)
Qwark (narrating): Originally designed to unclog valkyrie toilets, Ratchet would find the Hydrodisplacer invaluable in navigating the sewers of the galaxy.

Blarg Research Station, Nebula G34

Find the top-secret Blarg research project (gameplay)

(Upon exiting the ship and regaining control of Ratchet.)
On-screen: Nebula G34

Ratchet: Captain, come in. Clank and I are in position and ready to commence Operation: Falling Star.

Qwark (communicator): Copy that. You're clear to move in. I'll monitor your position from here.

(Upon returning to the station again after leaving without completing the objective.)
Qwark (narrating): And so, our heroes returned to Operation: Falling Star. Their mission: to seek out and destroy Drek's top-secret experiments.

(Upon approaching the locked door without having acquired the Trespasser yet.)
Qwark (narrating): The door was locked, leaving our heroes stranded up a very particular creek without a paddle. If only they had a Trespasser.

(When standing at the Trespasser terminal without having acquired the Trespasser yet.)
On-screen: Trespasser Required.

Qwark (narrating)

• If only our heroes had a Trespasser.
• And this is where our story ends. At least until Ratchet finds a Trespasser.
• At this point, Ratchet realized he would have to go to Rilgar and find a Trespasser.

(Upon approaching the locked door with the Trespasser in your inventory.)
Clank: Hmm. Perhaps the Trespasser will be useful here.

(When standing at the Trespasser terminal with the Trespasser in your inventory.)
On-screen: Unlock with the Trespasser

(After pressing and beginning the Trespasser puzzle.)
On-screen: Laser beams are blocked by other lasers and by blockers.

(Upon pressing to continue.)
On-screen: Blockers don't do anything besides block lasers — make sure they do not block ports.

(Upon pressing to continue.)
On-screen: If you ever need more help or a refresher, remember you can press to read the instructions.

(Upon pressing to continue.)
On-screen:

Rotate Ring


Select Ring

(Upon pressing for help and receiving Trespasser instructions.)
On-screen: To trespass a lock, all the lock ports must be powered by laser beams.

On-screen: Laser beams are blocked by other Lasers and Blockers.

On-screen: Press to move to the next interior ring and to move to the next exterior ring. Press to rotate the selected ring counter-clockwise and to rotate clockwise. Or use the for both.

On-screen: If you are stuck, you can use the AutoHack program by pressing on puzzles where it is enabled. The AutoHack program will automatically solve the puzzle for you, but if you use it you will not get any reward nor any trophies related to Trespasser puzzles.

(Upon pressing and exiting a Trespasser puzzle.)

Ratchet

• I'll solve this later.
• Eh, I'll do this later.
• I'll come back to this one.

(If too long is taken to complete the Trespasser puzzle.)

Clank

• Maybe the AutoHack program could save some time.
• Do not forget, there is an AutoHack program to assist you if necessary.
• If you are tired of opening the lock yourself, try the AutoHack program.

(Upon pressing to use the AutoHack program.)
On-screen: Are you sure you want to use the AutoHack program? You will not get any bolts awarded and you will not be able to get any trophies related to Trespasser puzzles without starting a new game.

(After using the AutoHack program to skip a Trespasser puzzle.)

Qwark (narrating)

• Our heroes discover the easy way out.
• Our heroes were learning an important lesson—always take the easy path to victory.
• And that's how our heroes bypassed the most confounding puzzle in the galaxy.

(After going through the now opened door to the tunnel hallway after using the Trespasser.)
Alonzo Drek (loudspeaker): Attention scientists! Chairman Drek here, I just wanted to thank you for all of your hard work these last few months. I may be your leader, but I am nothing without the tenacious blarg here at this facility. The weapons you're creating will help mark the beginning of a glorious new era for our kind.

(After multiple alien swarmers begin dropping from the ceiling.)
Clank: Ratchet, look out!

(Upon approaching the blarg space commando.)
Blarg space commando (1): When I signed up for this job they told me there'd be travel. I thought I'd get to explore the cosmos and invade thriving civilizations! Look at me—posted at the biggest nerd farm in the universe. (sighs) Anyways, enough belly-aching—let's go feed that thing in the restricted area. What do the nerds call it? Oh yeah, 8-5-7-B-Echo.

(Upon alerting the blarg space commando.)
Blarg space commando (1): There he is! Attack!

(Upon encountering a blarg space commando fighting a group of alien swarmers.)
Blarg space commando (2): All available units, go to research station five! The creatures have breached through the ventilation system and I need backup!

(Whilst traversing the next tunnel hallway.)
Alonzo Drek (loudspeaker): It has been brought to my attention that we may have an intruder at the facility. If you come across anyone who is not a blarg, please, feel free to kill them.

(Upon solving the optional Trespasser puzzle to open the locked door.)
Qwark (communicator): You're doing great, Ratchet. Keep going. I'll be with you every step of the— oh, come on, he was out of bounds! Open your eyes, ref!

(Upon reaching the base of the high platforms in the rocket silo.)
On-screen: then Double-Jump

(Upon climbing to the top of the rocket silo.)
Blarg space commando (3): The crawlers are coming in through the vents! Computer, lock down the sector.

(Upon entering the room with the two pods containing the alien snapper and alien spitter.)
Ratchet: What is all this?

Clank: It appears Chairman Drek has been growing his own army.

(Upon hitting the switches at the base of the two pods and releasing the enemies.)
Computer: Test pod deactivated.

(Whilst traversing the next tunnel hallway.)
Alonzo Drek (loudspeaker): This is just a reminder that all projects, files, and experiments are the property of Drek Industries. However, I welcome all feedback. Should you disagree with this policy, feel free to voice your concern to one of the armed, murderous warbots currently patrolling the halls... for your safety.

(Upon reaching the end of the tunnel hallway.)
Blarg space commando (4): The test subjects have escaped! Every blarg for him or herself!

(Upon entering the circular room containing several alien swarmers, snappers and spitters.)
Ratchet: Captain, come in. It looks like Drek has been experimenting on creatures.

Qwark (communicator): Ha! It'll take more than a few bugs to scare off Captain Qwark. Unless there are spiders... Are there spiders?! Gah, now I'll never get comfortable in this bed! Err, I mean uh, mission control. Where I'm... monitoring you from.

(After defeating some enemies, more drop into the room.)
Clank: Oh dear, more of them!

(Upon defeating all enemies in the room.)
Ratchet: We're all clear.

(Upon entering the next circular room with the active force fields.)
Alonzo Drek (loudspeaker): Fellow blarg. I've recently learned that a few of you have been sneaking into our restricted area to feed subject 8-5-7-B-Echo. This is a friendly reminder that 8-5-7-B-Echo is not a pet, and should you be caught feeding it, it's next meal will be you.

(If Ratchet does not hit the button to advance.)
Clank: It appears that button on the central shaft will disable the force field.

(Upon approaching the buttton.)
On-screen: + Throw Omniwrench

(After opening the next door with the Trespasser and entering the testing facility, a cutscene plays.)
Blarg Scientist (loudspeaker): Attention intruder. You have entered the testing facility for a blargian snagglebeast! Chairman Alonzo Drek thanks you for your sacrifice.

Ratchet: Uhh... Captain? Did you know Drek's secret project was a "blargian snagglebeast"?

Qwark (communicator): (gasps) It is?! I wonder why it wasn't in any of my intel. I was expecting something much less lethal. Ehh, don't worry. Just relax and remember what I taught you.

Ratchet: What did you teach me?! Captain?!

Blargian snagglebeast: (roars)

Ratchet: Oh, boy...

Defeat the Blargian Snagglebeast (gameplay)

(After regaining control of Ratchet.)
On-screen: Secret Weapons Lab

Blarg Scientist (loudspeaker): Initiate Phase One.

(When the blargian snagglebeast begins using its ground pound attack.)
Blarg Scientist (loudspeaker): Uploading Ground Pound protocol.

(When the blargian snagglebeast reaches 66% health and uses its charge attack.)
Blarg Scientist (loudspeaker): Initiate charge attack!

(When the blargian snagglebeast charges and falls into the lava.)
Blarg Scientist (loudspeaker): We've lost control of the subject!

(After some time, the blargian snagglebeast reenters the arena.)
Blarg Scientist (loudspeaker): Subject under control. Keep an eye on those cranial readouts, Jim.

(When the blargian snagglebeast begins using its sweeping fire breath attack.)
Blarg Scientist (loudspeaker): Begin Fire Sweep protocol.

(When the blargian snagglebeast reaches 33% health and uses its charge attack again.)
Blarg Scientist (loudspeaker): Subject appears to be mildly ticked off. Initiate cranial implant.

(When the blargian snagglebeast uses its charge attack and falls into the lava again.)
Blarg Scientist (loudspeaker): Subject appears to have a fondness for falling into lava. Jim, let's boost the neural transmitters and see if we can add a few IQ points to this dimwit.

(After some time, the blargian snagglebeast reenters the arena again.)
Blarg Scientist (loudspeaker): Okay, we got him back under control. Let's keep it that way, folks.

(Once the blargian snagglebeast has been defeated.)
Blargian snagglebeast: (pained roars)

Blarg Scientist: I yield! I yield! Please, don't hurt me!

Ratchet (breathless): (panting) Tell us what... (panting) Tell us what you... (panting) Hang on... (panting)

Clank: Tell us what you know about Drek's plan.

Ratchet (breathless): (panting) Thanks! Yeah, what he said.

Blarg Scientist: I can give you this infobot.

Ratchet (breathless): (panting) You watch this one, pal. I'm just gonna take five...

(Infobot video plays.)
Dr. Nefarious: Greetings, blarg imbeciles. If you're watching this infobot, you've been selected for the Beta trial of my latest invention... The XK-81 Jetpack!

Dr. Nefarious: Though initial testing had a few small setbacks, I'm happy to report that I've worked out all of the kinks. Now you can use your XK-81 Jetpack to traverse the sky, giving you an advantage over those morons on the ground!

Dr. Nefarious: The XK-81 Jetpack. Come pick yours up at our base on Gaspar.

Disclaimer: Dr. Nefarious is not responsible for death, dismemberment, or irreparable injury to your central nervous system.

(Infobot video ends and control of Ratchet is regained.)
Ratchet: Captain, it's Ratchet. We just defeated the snagglebeast and found out what Drek is up to.

Qwark (communicator): You did? But that's imp...pressive!

(When standing at the airlock to the transport ship.)
On-screen: Return to the Station Hub

(Whilst traveling back to the station hub on board the transport ship.)
Ratchet: Hey, I bet the Rangers could use jetpacks. Should we head to Gaspar and see if we can get some?

Qwark (communicator): (gasps) I've always wanted one of those! If you can get one, Elaris can build a few more for the Rangers. I hereby assign you the not-at-all deadly mission of acquiring one jetpack! Captain Qwark must fly like a bird!

Journey outside the airlock (gameplay)

(If having completed all other objectives except for "Journey outside the airlock".)
Clank: Ratchet, I am detecting a gadget outside this station. Perhaps we should investigate.

(Upon returning to Nebula G34 without having completed the objective.)
Qwark (narrating): Ratchet and Clank returned to Nebula G34 to continue their hunt for a pair of Magneboots. This amazing invention used compressed gravity coils that would allow its user to walk up stuff!

(Upon approaching the airlock.)
Clank: My sensors have picked up one of Drek's prototypes outside this airlock.

(When standing at the airlock.)
On-screen: Send Clank to Explore

(After gaining control of Clank.)
Ratchet (communicator): Be careful out there, pal.

(Sometimes upon Clank defeating an enemy.)
Clank: That was impressive.

(Upon entering the ship with the springbot.)
Clank: Hmm.

(Upon Clank approaching the gadgebot upgrade chip.)
Clank: What is that?

(Upon collecting the gadgebot upgrade chip.)
Clank: How fortuitous. It is a gadgebot upgrade chip.

Clank: Hmm. My upgrade should allow me to reprogram these gadgebots...

Ratchet (communicator): How ya doin' out there, Clank?

Clank: I just picked up a new gadget.

Ratchet (communicator): Aww, man, whadja get? You know you have to share whatever you found.

Clank: I think I will save these for me, thank you. But there is still a prototype device nearby. I will collect it for you.

Ratchet (communicator): Oh, fine!

(After picking up the springbot.)
On-screen: Clank can now reprogram any Gadgebot he is holding.

On-screen: HOLD

(Upon reprogramming the springbot into a powerbot.)
On-screen: You can quickly change Gadgebot types with the .

(After picking up the bridgebot.)
On-screen: Bridgebots can attach to distant chomp bars to deploy a bridge.

(After entering the next ship.)
Clank: Quite the puzzle.

Clank: Perhaps I can reach that ledge.

Clank: It appears I can restore power to that door from either side.

(Upon entering the room containing the Magneboots.)
Clank: Ahh, there they are.

(After collecting the Magneboots.)
Clank: Come in, Ratchet. I just located a pair of Magneboots. Returning to your position now.

Ratchet (communicator): Awesome! I always wanted a pair of Magneboots! Good work, pal. See ya in a bit.

(Upon returning to the airlock.)
On-screen: Return to Ratchet

(After returning to Ratchet.)
Qwark (narrating): Too puny to wear the Magneboots himself, Clank returned them to Ratchet.

(If having not yet completed "Find the top-secret Blarg research project".)
Qwark (communicator): Ratchet, what's your status on Operation: Falling Star?

Ratchet: Umm... we got a little distracted. We're on it!

OPTIONAL: Search the Blarg Warship for weapons (gameplay)

(When standing at the airlock to the transport ship.)
On-screen: Board Warship

(Whilst being transported to the warship.)
Clank: According to my database, we are headed to a shuttle designed for transporting Drek's high-value experiments.

Ratchet: Well, I'll give him this: he stays busy. Let's go see what he's been making.

(Upon regaining control of Ratchet on the warship.)
On-screen: Blarg Weapons Transport

Computer (loudspeaker): Intruder detected. Intruder detected.

(Upon entering the next room and engaging the blarg commander in combat.)
Blarg commander: They've made it onto the ship! All blarg, grab whatever ammo you can find and open fire!

(After traveling through either of the twin corridors and reaching the next room.)
Blarg space commando: I'm supposed to be on vacation today!

(After reaching the final room with the blarg by the Predator Launcher.)
Blarg trooper (1): Look at this baby—ain't she a beaut? Automatic lock-on, pyrocidic payload... Why do the warbots get all the good weapons?!

Blarg trooper (2): Supposedly the doc is building a few for the mercenaries.

Blarg trooper (1): Yeah, I'll believe that when I see it. Guy's a total wack job. And if you ask me, the Chairman trusts him too much. I hear he even let the doc choose which planets we destroy. Can you imagine? Chairman Drek taking orders from a former Galactic Ranger?!

(After reaching the final room in challenge mode and already owning the Predator Launcher.)
Blarg trooper (1): Check out this raritanium. It's so... shiny.

Blarg trooper (2): Yeah. I can't stop staring at it.

Blarg trooper (1): Yeah. Would it be weird if I tasted it? Yeah, that'd be weird. I'll just keep looking at it then.

(When standing at the Predator Launcher.)
On-screen: Pick up Predator Launcher

(After picking up the Predator Launcher.)
Computer (loudspeaker): Unauthorized weapon removal detected. Self-destruct sequence initiated.

(After breaking the raritanium ore on challenge mode and collecting it.)
Computer (loudspeaker): Unauthorized raritanium removal detected. Self-destruct sequence initiated.

Escape the Warship (gameplay)

(After the forty second countdown has begun.)
Ratchet: This doesn't look good...

(Upon retracing Ratchet's steps back to the room entrance.)
Clank: Ratchet, we must keep moving!

(Upon reaching the entrances to the twin corridors and being attacked by four blarg troopers.)
Blarg trooper: That's blarg property!

(Upon aiming the Predator Launcher at enemies.)
On-screen: Hold / to lock-on to more targets.

(Upon the timer reaching twenty seconds left.)
Computer (loudspeaker): Ship will self-destruct in twenty seconds.

(Upon exiting one of the twin corridors and being attacked by two blarg commanders.)
Blarg commander: He took the Predator Launcher!

(Upon exiting one of the twin corridors and being attacked by two blarg commanders on challenge mode.)
Blarg commander: He took the raritanium!

(Following both of the previous lines from the blarg commander.)
Clank: Oh, dear...

(Upon reaching the first room again.)
Ratchet: Come on, come on!

(Upon the timer reaching ten seconds left.)
Computer (loudspeaker): Ship will self-destruct in ten seconds.

(Upon the timer reaching five seconds left.)
Computer (loudspeaker): Five... Four... Three... Two... One...

(If the timer runs out.)
Computer (loudspeaker): Have a nice day.

(Upon returning to the transport ship.)
On-screen: Return to the Station Hub

(Once all available objectives have been completed.)
Clank: We should go to planet Gaspar and find out what Dr. Nefarious is up to.

Blackwater City, Rilgar

OPTIONAL: Travel to the hoverboard event (gameplay)

(Upon exiting the ship and regaining control of Ratchet.)
On-screen: Rilgar

(Upon first moving Ratchet.)
Dallas Wannamaker (loudspeaker): Attention residents of Blackwater City. As you may have noticed, we appear to be dealing with a small outbreak of amoeboids. Our security teams are working hard to rid the city of these creatures, but first, they have to wake up, get washed, brush their teeth, drive over here—really, it's a whole process. So until they arrive, the race is postponed. Please stay inside your homes while we manage the crisis. Thank you.

Ratchet: Let's clear out those amoeboids. I have a new McMarx hoverboard I wanna try out.

(Upon swingshotting across to the area outside the sealed room.)
Extermibot: Contain and exterminate all unauthorized organisms.

(Upon stepping onto the switch and opening the sealed room.)
Extermibot: Rodent-type organism detected. Exterminate.

(Upon engaging an extermibot in combat.)

Extermibot

• Must. Exterminate.
• Locate and exterminate.
• Exterminate all vermin.
• Eliminate pestilent organisms.
• Lombax identified. Exterminate.
• Unlawful life form—exterminate.
• New life form detected. Exterminate.
• Extinguish all unauthorized life forms.
• I am Extermibot. I will exterminate all.

(Upon defeating the extermibots and the nearby force fields are deactivated.)
Extermibot: Support extermibots on scene—open gates.

(Upon stepping onto the button to lower the force field leading to the downtown district.)
Dallas Wannamaker (loudspeaker): Attention residents of Blackwater City. In lieu of a security team, we've released a whole mess of extermibots into the city. We've also dispatched a few automated tanks, just to speed things along. The on-board AI doesn't let them distinguish between trespassers and locals, so, it's probably best to stay indoors.

(Upon swingshotting over to the rooftop after lowering the force field.)
On-screen: Downtown District

(Upon first encountering an extermitank.)
Ratchet: Talk about heavy artillery.

(Upon defeating all enemies in the downtown district.)
Ratchet: I doubt that's the last of 'em.

(After hitting the switch and aligning the swingshot targets.)
Ratchet: Nice!

(After stepping onto a button to lower a force field, two extermibots arrive up an elevator.)
Extermibot: Vermin sighted—exterminate!

(After defeating some enemies in the underground cavern.)
Clank: Oh dear, more of them!

(Upon defeating all enemies in the underground cavern.)
Ratchet: We're all clear.

(Whilst deactivating force fields inside the containment center.)
Extermibot (loudspeaker): All extermibots report to containment center. Repeat, all extermibots to the containment center. Amoeboids released. Code red, code red!

(Upon stepping onto a button to release a force field and leave the containment center.)
Extermibot (loudspeaker): Caution—gates unlawfully deactivated.

(After heavily damaging the extermitank, more reinforcements arrive.)
Ratchet: Oh, great. More of them.

Qwark (narrating): It was at this moment, our hero found out he was completely hosed.

(After defeating the enemy reinforcements.)
Ratchet: Looks like we got all of 'em. Hopefully now they put the race back on.

(Upon approaching the elevator to the hoverboard park.)
Dallas Wannamaker (loudspeaker): Good news! It looks like the city is now amoeboid-free. And we have two citizens to thank—Ratchet and Clank! The race is back on, so stay tuned for updates!

(After ascending on the elevator and entering the hoverboard park.)
On-screen: Hoverboard Park

(Upon standing at the balcony overlooking the hoverboard race track.)
Ratchet: Whoa-ho-hoh... the Blackwater City Hoverboard Track. I've only seen it on my holo-screen back on Veldin!

(Upon jumping onto the taxi at the hoverboard park.)
On-screen: Return to Ship

(Upon jumping onto the taxi on the right now close by the ship.)
On-screen: Go to the Race

(Upon approaching Starlene at the center of the park, a cutscene plays.)
Starlene: Hey! I'm Starlene. Are ya here for the race?

Ratchet: You know it.

Starlene: Aha-ha-ha. Enthusisam, I like it. All right, head inside. The first race starts in a few minutes.

OPTIONAL: Win the hoverboard race (Rilgar) (gameplay)

(Upon returning to Rilgar without having completed the objective.)
Ratchet: Let's enter that hoverboard race.

(Upon approaching Starlene.)
On-screen: Enter Race

(After selecting the Bronze Cup.)
On-screen:

/ Trick (in air)
Accelerate
/ Boost
Jump

(As the three second timer counts down to begin the race.)
Starlene (loudspeaker): Get ready, racers! On your mark! Get set! Go!

(After starting the race.)
Starlene (loudspeaker): We're told this lombax comes to us from Veldin's Kyzil Plateau. This is his first time on Rilgar, so let's give him a warm welcome!

(If Ratchet falls off of the race track for the first time.)
Qwark (narrating): The lombax's lack of hoverboard experience sent him careening off the track. Thankfully the track's teleport system would bring him back to the action.

(Sometimes upon falling off of the race track.)

Starlene (loudspeaker)

• Whoops...
• And Ratchet's off course.
• Ratchet's losing precious time.

(If Ratchet travels in the wrong direction.)

Qwark (narrating)

• And then Ratchet discovered he was going the wrong way!
• Ratchet knew he was going the wrong way—but he didn't care. Nope. Not one bit.

(Sometimes when Ratchet is racing close to another hoverboard racer.)

Hoverboard racer

• Amateur!
• Nice move!
• Kid's got skill!
• Eat my dust, noob!
• I'm taking home the win.
• Haw, outta my way, dude!
• I can't let my sponsors down!
• What is this, your first time?
• Sorry, furball. This one's mine.
• I'm not going back to being a barista!

(Upon first filling a boost meter and activating the booster.)
Qwark (narrating): With his boost meter filled, Ratchet activated the hoverboard's nitrous system.

(Upon using the booster.)

Starlene (loudspeaker)

• Look at him go!
• Whoa, Ratchet charges ahead!
• Ratchet blasts forward at incredible speed! This could get dangerous!

(Upon first using a boost pad.)
Qwark (narrating): The track's boost pad offered a tactical advantage to any racer who passed through. Activating just one would put the hoverboard's propulsion system on overdrive.

(Upon using a boost pad.)

Starlene (loudspeaker)

• And Ratchet hits the boost pad!
• And Ratchet shows us a boost of speed!
• That boost pad really gave him a boost. Eheh... sorry.

(Upon performing a trick.)

Starlene (loudspeaker)

• Whoa! Gnarly!
• Whoa, nice trick! This lombax has skill!
• What a trick! Are we lookin' at the next Skidd McMarx here?

(During the second lap of a race.)

Starlene (loudspeaker)

• This race is brought to you in part by Megacorp, makers of this year's most anticipated toy—the Protopet! Preorder yours today!
• This is just a reminder that viewers are not permitted on the course. Yes, we see you. And please, put your shirt back on!
• Fans will be happy to hear that we just received word from Skidd McMarx's reps. The pro-hoverboarder suffered a minor injury while breaking ground at one of his sports shacks, but is expected to make a full recovery.

(Upon reaching second place in the race.)
Starlene (loudspeaker): Underdog Ratchet is now in second place! Can he catch up in time?

(If Ratchet loses his second place position.)
Starlene (loudspeaker): Ratchet has fallen back to third place!

(Upon reaching first place in the race.)
Starlene (loudspeaker): Ratchet takes the lead!

(If Ratchet loses his first place position.)
Starlene (loudspeaker): He lost the lead!

(If Ratchet does not come in first place.)
Starlene (loudspeaker): Sorry, Ratchet. Better luck next time.

Starlene: Aww, sorry. But come back anytime and give it another try.

(After winning the race and finishing in first place.)
Starlene: Nice work! You're the first lombax to ever win a race.

Starlene: Come back anytime. They're always giving away cool prizes here. Perks of bein' sponsored by Gadgetron.

On-screen:

1 Ratchet
2 Apollo Hiks
3 Chester St. Cloud
4 Victor Equinox
5 Griff Blastex
6 Irwin Littleton

(Upon repeating a race and winning again.)
Starlene (loudspeaker): Ratchet wins!

OPTIONAL: Win the Silver Cup (Rilgar) (gameplay)

(After winning the Bronze Cup and unlocking the Silver Cup.)
Ratchet: We can race for the Silver Cup—of course, we probably have better things to do...

(Upon returning to Starlene.)

Starlene

• Hey, wanna race again?
• You're back! We can do another race if you want.
• You wanna go for the world record, don't you? I'm ready when you are.

(After starting the race.)
Starlene (loudspeaker): Fan favorites Ratchet and Clank are back. Can they repeat the same magic we saw durng our last competition? Let's find out!

(If Ratchet crashes into a stack of explosive crates.)

Starlene (loudspeaker)

• Ouch...
• That's a costly error...
• Whoa! That's gonna set him back!
• Whoops, that looked like it hurt.
• He's gotta do a better job avoiding those bomb boxes!

(After winning the race and finishing in first place.)
Starlene: Wow, that was awesome! Enjoy your prize—you earned it.

OPTIONAL: Win the Gold Cup (Rilgar) (gameplay)

(After winning the Silver Cup and unlocking the Gold Cup.)
Ratchet: Yes! We qualified for the Gold Cup. So tempting...

(After starting the race.)
Starlene (loudspeaker): And they're off! Just a little background on some of our racers today. Griff Blastex is riding a modified Orion S-12. Newcomer Victor Equinox is riding a Vortex 2000, and Chester St. Cloud is riding a Romulus Turbo IV!

(After winning the race and finishing in first place.)
Starlene: Holy wowzers, you're, like, amazing! You should think about goin' pro.

(If the Trespasser has already been acquired from Slim Cognito.)
Clank: We should head back to the ship.

(If the Trespasser has not been acquired from Slim Cognito yet whilst riding the taxi back to the ship.)
Slim Cognito (communicator): Hey, kid! You got some hoverboard skills—I could use someone like you. Come see me and let's talk business. I, uh, ain't sayin' where I am, but the sewers under this here city, yeah, they're pretty interesting, don't ya think?

Search the sewers (gameplay)

(Upon returning to Rilgar without having completed the objective.)
Qwark (narrating): The heroes returned to Rilgar for the sole purpose of exploring the sewer system. What hidden treasures would they find inside?

(Upon approaching the elevator to the sewers entrance.)
Ratchet: Hmm. What's down here?

(After descending on the elevator.)
On-screen: Blackwater City Sewers

(Upon approaching the Hydrodisplacer receptacle before completing "Locate the gadget inside the McMarx Sports Shack".)
Qwark (narrating): A dead end. If the duo expected to traverse the city's sewer system, they'd need something to help them get across. Saaay, a portable Hydrodisplacer found on Aridia.

On-screen: Hydrodisplacer Required

(Whilst sliding down a tunnel to the bottom of the sewers.)
Ratchet: Whoaa-aaah-aaaaahh!

Escape the sewers! (gameplay)

(Upon stepping onto the button in front of the closed gate.)
Computer: Sewer pumps activated.

Ratchet: Oh, boy...

Clank: I believe we should run now.

(Whilst escaping from the rising water.)
Clank: Oh dear, the water is rising.

(When the water has almost filled the sewer.)
Clank: Ratchet, we must keep moving!

Ratchet: I'm tryin', pal!

(Upon reaching the end of the rising water segment.)
Ratchet: Phew, that was close!

(After taking an elevator out of the sewers and back up to the surface.)
On-screen: Blackwater Market

Ratchet: This place looks like bad news. Better keep our eyes peeled, Clank.

(When standing at the Trespasser terminal next to the force field.)
On-screen: Trespasser Required.

Clank: We should talk to that fellow, see if he has anything to open this lock.

(Upon approaching Slim Cognito, a cutscene plays.)
Slim Cognito: Psst. Hey, pal. Ya got any of them RYNO holocards?

Ratchet: What's a RYNO?

Slim Cognito: Only the most powerful superweapon in the galaxy, chief. Stands for "Rip You a New One." See, the Gadgetron guys—they knew the plans would be too dangerous to leave in any one location. So they split 'em up and printed 'em on a bunch of holocards. Me and my associates would very much like to acquire these holocards, and thus, the full plan.

Ratchet: And let me guess—if we give you all the holocards, you'll build us the weapon?

Slim Cognito: That is correct, my industrious friend. Here—take this Trespasser. It may help facilitate the acquisition of said merchandise.

(Upon approaching Slim Cognito on challenge mode and already owning the RYNO.)
Slim Cognito: I see you got a RYNO. That makes you like, eh, some sorta celebrity. Tell you what, I'll give you this Trespasser if you let me take your picture.

Ratchet: Uh... weird, but, okay.

OPTIONAL: Collect all RYNO holocards (gameplay)

(Upon approaching Slim Cognito again.)

Slim Cognito

• Ya lookin' to make a deal?
• What's new, buddy?
• Yo, slick! What do ya got for me?

(Upon talking to Slim Cognito.)

Slim Cognito

• Sorry, sport. I can't build ya the weapon until you bring me all the RYNO holocards.
• What do I look like, a magician? Some magical being of wonder who can conjure up a restricted Gadgetron weapon? Pfft, get outta here.
• I need all the RYNO holocards before I can build ya the weapon.

(Upon talking to Slim Cognito for the eighth time in a row.)
Slim Cognito: All right, now you're getting on my nerves, kid. I am a professional criminal, I have a society to leech off of and lives to ruin! I can't be bothered by some little furball who— (sighs) I'm sorry, kid. My Lance and Janice fan fiction was rejected by the studio this morning. "No unsolicited material" they said, buncha jerks. I guess they hurt my feelings is all...

(When now standing at the Trespasser terminal next to the force field.)
On-screen: Unlock with the Trespasser

(After pressing and beginning the Trespasser puzzle.)
Computer: The Trespasser can short circuit powered locks.

On-screen: The goal is to power all the ports on the exterior of the lock with lasers.

(Upon pressing to continue.)
Computer: Rotate selected control ring to point laser at power port.

On-screen: Rotate the ring with or until the laser beam hits one of the ports to power it.

(If the control ring is not moved.)

(Upon turning the second control ring to connect the laser with the second power port.)
On-screen: Trespass Complete!

(Upon collecting the first RYNO holocard after deactivating the force field.)
Slim Cognito (communicator): Hey-ey-ey, ya got one! Keep lookin' for more. Travel to other planets and stuff—holocards are everywhere.

(Upon jumping onto the taxi past the now deactivated force field.)
On-screen: Return to Ship

(Whilst riding the taxi back to the ship.)
Qwark (narrating): Ahh, the Trespasser. Not just for when you lock yourself out of your apartment and you've left Lance and Janice on at top volume. Not that that's ever happened to me.

(Upon arriving back at the ship if "Travel to the hoverboard event" has not been completed yet.)
Ratchet: What do ya say, pal? Feel like entering the race?

(Upon jumping onto the taxi on the left now close by the ship.)
On-screen: Go to RYNO Dealer

OPTIONAL: Bring all RYNO holocards to the dealer (gameplay)

(Upon returning to and talking to Slim Cognito after collecting all nine RYNO holocards.)
Slim Cognito: Hey, you got all the holocards! Good job, sport. The RYNO's yours. Hang on while I grab my tool kit. Now I just have to attach the induction rod, refocus the emitters and... blammo! One new RYNO. Now don't go tellin' anyone you have this. Happy hunting!

(Upon returning to and talking to Slim Cognito again.)

Slim Cognito

• How are ya likin' that new RYNO?
• You got a brand new RYNO and you're wasting time talking to me? Get on out there and shoot something!
• I ain't got nothin' else for ya, kid.
• I was brainstorming a new Lance and Janice story, and you broke my concentration! Now I have to start all over...

Blarg Research Outpost, Gaspar

Fight the Blarg (gameplay)

(Upon exiting the ship and regaining control of Ratchet.)
On-screen: Gaspar

Ratchet: All right, let's go find you a new jetpack.

(Upon returning to Gaspar without having acquired the jetpack yet.)
Qwark (narrating): Ratchet and Clank returned to Gaspar in search of one of Nefarious' jetpacks. With this technology in their possession, the Rangers would be unstoppable.

(Upon first acquiring a ninth weapon and owning more than eight.)
Qwark (narrating): For the first time, Ratchet had more weapons than he knew what to do with.

On-screen: HOLD

On-screen: Press or to switch pages in the weapon wheel.

On-screen: You can configure your weapon wheel in the Weapons Menu.

(Upon approaching the grindrail.)
On-screen: Grindboots Required

Qwark (narrating): Ratchet dreamed of riding that grindrail—which he will do as soon as he finds some Grindboots.

(Upon standing at the jetpack refueling station.)
On-screen: Jetpack Required

Qwark (narrating): Ratchet would be able to use this refueling station as soon as he collected the jetpack.

(Upon approaching the elevator platform.)
Clank: Hmm, Nefarious has built quite the operation here.

Ratchet: You're not kiddin'. Let's check this place out, see what we can find.

(If Ratchet attempts to hit the armored door with his weapons.)
Clank: Ratchet, perhaps the turret could help blast through that door.

(When standing behind a vacant turret.)
On-screen: Enter Turret

(Whilst operating a turret.)
On-screen:

Leave Turret
/ Shoot

(Whilst shooting at the large, armored door with the turret.)
Ratchet: Great, reinforced door. Why does everything have to be made of dense alloy?

Clank: I will try not to be offended by that.

(After destroying the armored door and going through to the next area.)
Dr. Nefarious (loudspeaker): Ahhh, I see we have visitors. If it isn't the latest crop of Galactic Morons. I hope you like my facility—because you're never, ever leaving!

(Upon using a turret to destroy the second armored door.)
Dr. Nefarious (loudspeaker): Quit shooting my doors! Those are custom-made, you know!

(Upon going through the destroyed door and reaching the base of an elevator.)
On-screen: Blarg Research Station

(Whilst fighting enemies and traveling through the halls of the Blarg Research Station.)
Dr. Nefarious (loudspeaker): Why are these imbeciles still alive?! Send all strike teams to sector three and annihilate them before I lose my patience!

(After using a turret to destroy the third armored door.)
Clank: Ratchet, be careful. More warbots are approaching.

(Upon defeating some enemies and reinforcements being called in.)
Dr. Nefarious (loudspeaker): They're near my secret project! Will one of you morons stop them?!

(Once all enemies in the area have been defeated.)
Ratchet: Hey, are those Grindboots?

Qwark (narrating): A tripad lock. In order to bypass it, the duo would have to quickly activate all three pressure pads.

(If all three pressure pads are not activated within the time limit.)
On-screen: Hit all of the tripads within the allotted time to activate them.

Ratchet: Ohh... Where's that last pad...?

(Upon activating all three pressure pads to deactivate the force field around the Grindboots.)
Ratchet: Cool, Grindboots!

Qwark (narrating): Oh, look! They got it!

(Whilst collecting the Grindboots.)
Ratchet: Sweet!

Qwark (narrating): And that completely unlikely location is where Ratchet found a shiny new pair of Grindboots.

(After collecting the Grindboots.)
Qwark (narrating): With his Grindboots strapped on, Ratchet leapt onto the rail!

(If Ratchet waits and does not jump onto the rail.)
Qwark (narrating): Ahem. I said, "Ratchet leapt onto the rail!"

(Upon jumping onto the grindrail.)
Ratchet: Whoaa-aaah-aaaaahh!

(Upon reaching the end of the grindrail.)
Qwark (narrating): Still on the hunt for the jetpack, Ratchet used his newfound Grindboots to explore the planet further.

Find the Jetpack (gameplay)

(Whilst riding the next grindrail.)
Qwark (narrating): Ratchet stylishly leapt onto the rail next to him!

On-screen: +

(When mines begin being placed onto the grindrail ahead of Ratchet.)
Clank: Detecting versa-mines ahead!

(Whilst crossing the bridge towards the Telepathopus Fields.)
Brain Scientist: Psst! Psst! Hey! Hey, lombax! Come here!

(Upon crossing the bridge.)
On-screen: Telepathopus Fields

(Upon getting closer to the Brain Scientist.)
Brain Scientist: Don't worry, I'm a friend.

(Upon reaching the Brain Scientist, a cutscene plays.)
Brain Scientist: I know who you are. You're the lombax and the warbot from the news.

Ratchet: And you must be the faceless minion helping Drek terrorize the galaxy.

Brain Scientist: That's just my day job. My real passion is in amateur neuroscience. I've been collecting brains from telepathopuses as a hobby for about a year now.

Ratchet: You collect brains as a hobby? I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say you're single.

Brain Scientist: Studying brains is a noble pursuit. If I can tap into the psychic powers of these telepathopuses, I'll be able to raise an army! Then we'll see who thinks they can steal my food out of the company fridge! I mean, I can contribute to the good of all blarg-kind.

Brain Scientist: Say, if you can collect a few telepathopus brains for me, I'll give you this jetpack.

Trade 10 brains for a jetpack (gameplay)

(Upon returning to Gaspar without having completed the objective.)
Qwark (narrating): In order to secure one of Nefarious' jetpacks, the duo would need to collect telepathopus brains for a devious blarg scientist. How's that for a way to spend your Tuesday?

(Upon approaching the Brain Scientist.)

Brain Scientist

• You can find brains growing in egg sacks, or in a fully grown telepathopus.
• This area is crawling with telepathopuses. Bring me a few of their brains, and the jetpack's yours.

(Upon pressing to talk to the Brain Scientist.)

Brain Scientist

• I'm sure there are more telepathopus brains out there. Bring back whatever you find and I'll pay you.
• If you find all of the brains in this sector, I'll give you a nice reward.
• Oh hey, you're back! Did you find any more telepathopus brains?
• Keep up the good work! There has to be more telepathopus brains out there.
• Say, did you find any more of those brains?!
• There's still a few juicy brains left.
• If you find anymore brains, bring them back here. I'll buy 'em off you for a good price.

(Upon first collecting a telepathopus brain.)
Ratchet: Ugh, this is disgusting.

Brain Scientist (communicator): You got one! Nice work.

(Upon collecting subsequent telepathopus brains.)

Ratchet

• Blech, disgusting...
• The things I do for you, pal.
• Eugh! Gross—the smell is getting into my fur. (sniffs) Eww...

(Upon collecting almost ten telepathopus brains.)
Brain Scientist (communicator): Just a few more!

(Upon collecting ten telepathopus brains.)
Brain Scientist (communicator): You did it! Come on back, the jetpack is yours.

(Upon returning to the Brain Scientist, a cutscene plays.)
Brain Scientist: A deal's a deal. Here you go!

Brain Scientist: I tell you what, I actually have a top-secret Drek Industries infobot. If you bring me a few more brains, I might be willing to part with it.

Ratchet: You really have a thing for brains, don't ya?

Brain Scientist: Yes, I do.

Trade 20 brains for an infobot (gameplay)

(Upon regaining control of Ratchet.)
On-screen:

Qwark (narrating): And with that jetpack, Ratchet became the aerial scourge of a thousand thousand worlds. Or at least his commute got easier.

(Upon approaching the Brain Scientist.)

Brain Scientist

• The telepathopus brain is a wondrously complex organ—I might have to write a paper about it.
• Ever smell a telepathopus brain? Smells like cotton candy. Weird, huh?

(When standing on the teleporter now near the Brain Scientist.)
On-screen: Return to Ship

(When standing on the teleporter now near the ship.)
On-screen: Travel to Telepathopus Fields

(When close to a refueling station.)
On-screen: Stand on the fuel station pad to refuel jetpack.

(After first using the jetpack.)
Qwark (narrating): Ratchet used the jetpack to fly high above hostile territory.

(If Ratchet flies with the jetpack too far out of the level area.)
Computer and on-screen: Warning. Atmosphere volatile—mechanical failure imminent.

(Whilst exploring the Telepathopus Fields for brains.)

Brain Scientist (communicator)

• I've done a lot of difficult things in my life, but by far the most difficult has been trying to say the word telepathopus ten times fast. I believe it is impossible. Telepathopustelepathopustelepathopustelepathopustelepathopustelepathopustelepathopustelepathopus ...ah, see?
• Hey, I just realized—if I'm a scientist and I spend all my time studying brains, I should introduce myself at parties as a "brain scientist!" That sounds much more impressive than a "Assistant Blarg Outpost Consultant."
• I would be out there collecting brains myself, but my doctor told me I have a bad case of cowfinger. I have no idea what that means, but he said to stand in one place as much as possible and it might heal itself. If I could just get people to stop trying to tip me over. Maybe I should get a second opinion.
• No one else in the galaxy is collecting telepathopus brains. If my experiments succeed I'll be leading the charge into a new frontier! Or my experiments will fail and this will all be pointless. Either way, at least I'm keeping busy!

(Upon approaching a telepathopus trapped inside a force field.)
Brain Scientist (communicator): Hey, looks like you found one of my telepathopus traps! You'll have to free it before you can collect its brain.

(Upon collecting ten out of twenty telepathopus brains.)
Brain Scientist (communicator): Just a few more!

(Upon collecting twenty telepathopus brains.)
Brain Scientist (communicator): Sweet, sweet brains. Come to poppa.

(Upon returning to the Brain Scientist, a cutscene plays.)
Brain Scientist: The telepathopus army is as good as mine! Here's your infobot. Remember, you didn't get it from me.

(Infobot video plays.)
Alonzo Drek: Good evening, fellow blarg. Chairman Drek here, with the latest update on our quest for a new home.

Alonzo Drek: Over the next few days you may notice an increase in blarg activity around the galaxy. While this may alert the authorities to our plan, this move is critical to securing safe passage for our harvesters.

Alonzo Drek: Case in point: the Starwatch Defense Cannon on planet Batalia. This surface-to-space ion cannon has been protecting the galaxy from invasions ever since we were first driven underground. With this out of commission, our glorious plan can continue! Preparations are already underway, so fear not, stay the course, et cetera, yadda yadda yadda.

Alonzo Drek: Once we eliminate Starwatch and its surrounding forces, we'll enter the final stages of my plan. Aha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!

(Infobot video ends.)
Ratchet: We've gotta stop Drek from destroying that Starwatch Defense Cannon.

Clank: My records show that the cannon is on the planet Batalia.

Ratchet: I just hope we're not too late.

Brain Scientist: If you're looking for a little extra work, I'll pay a nice reward for collecting any remaining brains in this area. If you find them all, I'll even throw in a special bonus.

OPTIONAL: Trade brains for bolts (gameplay)

(Upon trading telepathopus brains for bolts.)
(250 bolts each.)

Brain Scientist

• Here you go.
• Worth every bolt.
• Thanks for the brains!
• I can't wait to experiment on these!
• Come back anytime! I can always use more telepathopus brains.
• I'm so close to being able to control my own telepathopus army!
• The other blarg make fun of me for collecting telepathopus brains. But ya gotta have a hobby, right?

(Upon activating the first pressure pad for a telepathopus trap.)
Ratchet: We're gonna have to be quick here.

(When flying with the jetpack to the platform with the bolt crank and large firepit.)

Blarg trooper

• Shoot him down!
• He's got a jetpack!
• Don't let him land!
• There he is—get the turret!
• Keep him away from that bolt crank!

(Upon reaching the Transport Docks in the south-west area of the map.)
On-screen: Transport Docks

(Upon turning the bolt crank to shut down the smoke stack.)
Qwark (narrating): Ratchet and Clank dodged hazards and made their way into the secret blarg lair. Because exploring is fun.

(After traversing the magnesurface into the underground cavern.)
Blarg space commando: He found our hideout—destroy him!

(Whilst fighting enemies in the underground cavern.)
Blarg trooper: Protect the refinery!

(Upon approaching the inactive tripads at the end of the cavern.)
Blarg bombthrower: Keep him away from those tripads!

(Upon collecting all remaining sixty telepathopus brains.)
Brain Scientist (communicator): Unbelievable—you found them all! Come on back to get your reward!

(Upon talking to the brain Scientist, a cutscene plays.)
Brain Scientist: Looks like ya got 'em all. And now to create my army.

Ratchet: You mean use them for the betterment of blarg-kind.

Brain Scientist: Yeah, sure. Get ready for a reckoning, Darryl! Stealing my tuna sandwich right out of the fridge! Boy, did you mess with the wrong blarg!

(Upon regaining control of Ratchet.)
Brain Scientist (communicator): Enjoy your reward.

(Upon collecting the Box Breaker.)
On-screen: You got the Box Breaker!

Brain Scientist (communicator): I designed a useful little gadget for you. Slam down your wrench and the Box Breaker will destroy boxes all around you, then pick up bolts from a much greater distance. It's almost as useful as a telepathopus brain.

Fort Krontos, Batalia

(During the cutscene as the ship flies down to land on the planet.)
Brax Lectrus (communicator): Ratchet, get to the Starwatch Defense Cannon and show these blarg who they're messing with.

Cora Verolux (communicator): Ratchet, come in! I'm engaging hostiles inside the city and I need backup!

Travel to the Fort (gameplay)

(Upon exiting the ship and regaining control of Ratchet.)
On-screen: Batalia

Brax Lectrus (communicator): There's the Starwatch Defense Cannon. Drek hit it with an EMP—we have to get it back online!

(After swingshotting across the broken walkway and being attacked by bladeball enemies.)
Clank: Incoming enemies detected.

(Upon reaching Cora where she is fighting two warbots.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Good to see you guys. Come on, I could use your help clearing the city.

Clank: Always happy to help, Ms. Verolux. (chuckles)

Alonzo Drek (loudspeaker): Chairman Drek here. A brief warning for my hard-working employees. Failure to destroy Starwatch will result in automatic dismissal from Drek Industries.

(Sometimes when Cora encounters an enemy.)

Cora Verolux (communicator)

• Enemy spotted!
• Target acquired!

(Sometimes when Cora defeats an enemy.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Enemy down!

(Upon helping Cora defeat the two warbots.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Come on! We've gotta get across this bridge!

(Upon reaching Cora at the broken bridge.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): They're coming out of the snow!

Blarg bombthrower: Keep him away from that bolt crank!

Alonzo Drek (loudspeaker): Why haven't you killed them yet?! Must I make an example out of one of you so you understand how dire this situation is?! Do, not, fail, me!

(After the blarg bombthrowers have been defeated and Cora has reached the retracted bridge.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): We need to extend the bridge. Hop on that bolt crank!

(Sometimes when Cora encounters a warbot.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Warbots!

(Sometimes when Cora defeats a warbot.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Yeah! Warbot down!

(When near the two warbots at the bolt crank.)
Warbot (1) (Frank): Do you have a visual on the defect?

Warbot (2): Frank, I'm standing right next to you. If I had a visual, wouldn't you have a visual?

Warbot (1) (Frank): You know, I'm only one day old, so I could really do without the judgement.

(Upon engaging the warbots in combat.)
Warbot: Galactic Ranger detected.

(After defeating all enemies around the bolt crank.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Ratchet, hop on that bolt crank!

(After extending the bridge using the bolt crank.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Good work. Come on—Starwatch is this way.

(If Ratchet does not head back up to the bridge.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Up here!

(Whilst heading back up to the bridge.)
Brax Lectrus (communicator): They're sending in a tank!

Alonzo Drek (loudspeaker): If Starwatch does not fall, our mobility in this sector will be greatly inhibited! I will not tolerate failure!

(If Ratchet does not engage the cannonball tank.)

Cora Verolux (communicator)

• Ugh! I'm pinned down!
• I could use some backup here!

(After destroying the cannonball tank.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): It's down. Nice shooting—bet you never got to do anything like that on Veldin!

Qwark (communicator): Come on, team! Push forward!

(Whilst sliding down the frozen river.)
Ratchet: Whoaa-aaah-aaaaahh!

(After reaching the bottom of the frozen river.)
Clank: I am guessing ice is not a lombax's natural habitat.

Ratchet: Very funny.

(Whilst fighting enemies.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Here we go!

(Upon defeating some enemies, reinforcements arrive.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Well, looks like the reinforcements arrived. Let's get to work.

(Upon defeating all enemies in the area.)
Alonzo Drek (loudspeaker): Send in another tank!

(Upon destroying the cannonball tank and all enemies in the area.)
Alonzo Drek (loudspeaker): Attention all troops. HR says I can't fire or kill you for failing to terminate the Galactic Rangers. So, the Board and I have decided to offer a little employee incentive. The blarg who help the Galactic Rangers meet their end will get an all-expenses-paid trip to the third ring of Hullabash! Parties, orbital dinner cruises—why, I even heard they offer cooking classes.

(If Ratchet does not head to turn the bolt crank.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Ratchet, hop on that bolt crank!

(Upon fully turning the bolt crank and extending the bridge.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Area secure! Come on, let's get across this bridge.

(If Ratchet does not follow Cora across the bridge.)

Cora Verolux (communicator)

• Let's go!
• Stay on my six!
• This way!

(Upon reaching Cora at the bridge into Fort Krontos, a cutscene plays.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Those laser turrets could be a real problem for us. We're gonna have to find another way inside. You take point, I'll cover you.

Get to the Turret (gameplay)

(After regaining control of Ratchet.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): That surface looks ionized. Try using your Magneboots.

(If Ratchet does not proceed and walk up the magnesurface ramp.)
Qwark (narrating): The young lombax knew that he'd need to find another way through. Perhaps his Magneboots could be of some assistance.

(If some more time passes and Ratchet has still not walked up the magnesurface ramp.)
Qwark (narrating): I said, "Perhaps his Magneboots could be of some assistance"!

(Upon standing close to Cora before using the magnesurface ramp.)

Cora Verolux (communicator)

• Looks like they've taken control of the fort's defense grid. We're gonna have to find another way around.
• There has to be another way inside.
• We've gotta get around those laser turrets! Ratchet, have you found a way inside yet?!

(When standing on the taxi now close by the ship.)
On-screen: Return to the Magneboots Path

(If Ratchet and Clank leave Batalia and return.)
Qwark (narrating): And so, Ratchet and Clank returned to Batalia to save the Starwatch Defense Cannon. I would have been there to help, but I had urgent hero business to attend to.

(After walking up the nearby magnesurface with the Magneboots.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Not bad, Ratchet.

(Whilst traversing the magnesurfaces leading into the fort.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): I don't like this at all. If Drek takes down Starwatch, there won't be anything standing between him and every planet in the system.

Ratchet: Where's Captain Qwark?

Cora Verolux (communicator): He said he had urgent Galactic Ranger business to attend to.

Ratchet: Hm, weird. All right, I guess it's on us then.

(Upon reaching the end of the magnesurface.)
On-screen: Fort Krontos

(Upon entering the fort.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Okay, now see if you can deactivate the perimeter fusion turrets from inside.

Qwark (communicator): Hey, team. Just wanted to say how proud of you I am. I'm sorry I can't be there with you today, but you know how hard these massages are to reschedule.

(If Ratchet does not extend the bridge for Cora after defeating all enemies in the area.)

Cora Verolux (communicator)

• Ratchet, check your comms. I need to get inside. Look around for a bolt crank.
• Look around for a bolt crank!
• Ratchet, let me in.

(Upon fully turning the bolt crank and extending the bridge for Cora.)
Ratchet: Got it!

Cora Verolux (communicator): Drek's gonna throw everything he has at us. You ready for this?

Ratchet: Been ready my whole life. Let's do it.

(Upon destroying the attacking warbots, more reinforcements arrive.)
Brax Lectrus (communicator): More strike teams, incoming!

(Upon defeating the reinforcements, two cannonball tanks break through the fort walls.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Oh, man—two tanks!

(Upon destroying one of the cannonball tanks.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Yeah! One tank down!

Alonzo Drek (loudspeaker): I am disappointed in all of you! Months of training with Victor Von Ion, and you can't even kill a few Galactic Rangers?! Where's your bravery? Where's your pride?! Do you like living underground?!

(Upon defeating all enemies inside the fort.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Okay, you're clear! Let's get to the Starwatch Defense Cannon!

(Upon reaching Cora at a bolt crank and the door leading to the defense cannon.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Come on, let's get this door open.

Destroy the battleships (gameplay)

(Upon reaching the defense cannon.)
On-screen: Starwatch Defense Cannon

Cora Verolux (communicator): We're at the defense cannon, but it looks like the system's on lockdown. We need to get this thing online, and fast!

Clank: Hmm, perhaps the Trespasser will be useful here.

(If Ratchet does not use the Trespasser on the terminal at the cannon.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Ratchet, get that cannon online!

(If Ratchet leaves the area of the cannon.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Ratchet, where are you going?! We have to get the defense cannon online!

Ratchet: Sorry, I was just, ehh—you know what, uh, I have no idea what I was doing.

(Upon using the Trespasser on the cannon to begin the puzzle.)
On-screen: A deactivated ring's lasers and blockers will be turned off.

Elaris (communicator): This lock has upgraded security. I just upgraded your Trespasser so it can activate and deactivate rings.

(Upon pressing to continue.)
On-screen: Press to deactivate ring.

Elaris (communicator): Can you test it out for me by deactivating the ring?

(If the ring is not deactivated.)
Clank: Ratchet, let us test the Trespasser's ability to deactivate a ring.

(Upon pressing to deactivate the ring.)
On-screen: Press again to activate ring.

Elaris (communicator): Excellent. Now test the activation functionality.

(If the ring is not reactivated.)
Clank: To finish Elaris' test we need to reactivate the ring.

(Upon pressing to activate the ring again.)
Elaris (communicator): Perfect, thanks. And be sure to use this new functionality from now on.

(After pressing for help and receiving additional Trespasser instructions.)
On-screen: Lasers and Blockers on a deactivated ring will also be deactivated and not block a laser beam. Press to change the activation state of the currently selected ring.

(After completing the Trespasser puzzle.)
Computer: Starwatch Defense Cannon online.

Cora Verolux (communicator): Nice work, Ratchet. Hop on the defense cannon, I'll cover you!

(Upon reaching the defense cannon's turret.)
On-screen: Enter Turret

(After entering the turret.)
On-screen: / Machine Gun

Cora Verolux (communicator): We're gonna take down those warships one by one. When the cannon charges, open fire!

(If the defense cannon's guns are not fired.)
On-screen: / Fire Machineguns

(When receiving instructions on charging the ion cannon from Cora or Clank.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Shooting down the smaller ships will charge your ion cannon!

Clank: Charge the ion cannon by shooting down the smaller fighters!

(When attempting to press or to fire the ion cannon without enough charge.)

Cora Verolux (communicator)

• It has to be fully charged!
• Use the Starwatch ion cannon against those capital ships!

(When shooting a battleship with the defense cannon's machine guns.)

Cora Verolux (communicator)

• Those hulls are too thick for standard ordnance! We have to hit them with an ion blast!
• Use the Starwatch ion cannon against those capital ships!

(Upon destroying two blarg saucers.)
Computer: Starwatch ion cannon at twenty-five percent.

(Upon destroying six blarg saucers.)
Computer: Starwatch ion cannon at seventy-five percent.

(Once the ion cannon is fully charged.)
On-screen: / Fire Cannon

Cora Verolux (communicator)

• Cannon's ready! Fire!
• Fire again!

Computer: Starwatch ion cannon armed.

(After destroying the first of the four battleships.)
Ratchet: Ha-ha! I got it! Clank, did you see that?!

Clank: Umm, no. But, congratulations.

(When enemy missiles begin heading towards the turret.)
Clank: Incoming missile detected.

(If the defense cannon takes damage from an incoming missile.)
Computer: Missile impact detected. Ouch.

(If the defense cannon takes 50% damage.)
Computer: Warning: Significant system damage detected.

(If the defense cannon takes 75% damage.)
Computer: Weapon systems critical.

(If the defense cannon is destroyed.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Oh no!

Cora Verolux (communicator)

• It's about to blow!
• Starwatch is going down!

(After destroying the second of the four battleships.)
Computer: Hit confirmed.

(After destroying the third of the four battleships.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): You got it! Nice shooting!

(After destroying the final battleship, a cutscene plays.)
Brax Lectrus (communicator): Nice work, kid!

Cora Verolux (communicator): They're retreating!

Ratchet: We did it!

Cora Verolux (communicator): That's what Drek gets when he messes with the Galactic Rangers!

Ratchet: Yeah—woo-hoo!

(After the cutscene has played and control of Ratchet is regained.)
Clank: We should head back to the ship.

(Whilst returning to the ship on a taxi.)
Brax Lectrus (communicator): Ha-ha! You did it, kid! We're gettin' reports that the rest of Drek's fleet is retreating. Elaris, confirm.

Elaris (communicator): Copy that, Brax. All remaining warships are turning back towards Quartu. You guys did great work.

Qwark (communicator): I agree. Sorry I couldn't be with you today, I hope you know I was with you in spirit. Let's rendezvous and follow those blarg back to Quartu.

Ratchet: Copy that, Captain. We'll see you in a bit.

Cora Verolux (communicator): Looks like we're secure. You did well today, Ratchet.

Clank: A-hem.

Cora Verolux (communicator): You too, Clank. I'll see you both on Quartu.

(When standing on the taxi now near the ship.)
On-screen: Return to the Turret

Ride the rail (gameplay)

(Upon returning to Batalia after completing "Destroy the battleships".)
Qwark (narrating): Ratchet and Clank knew that Batalia was full of secrets and hidden treasures. Perhaps exploring the planet a bit more would unearth something useful.

(Upon approaching the grindrail.)
Clank: I am picking up an infobot signal in this sector. Perhaps we should investigate.

(Whilst riding the grindrail before completing "Travel to the Fort".)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Ratchet, the blarg are advancing towards Starwatch! We could really use your help right now.

Ratchet: We're almost there, Cora. Just hold 'em off as long as you can!

(Whilst grinding down a steep rail towards the platform with the infobot.)
Ratchet: Whoaa-aaah-aaaaahh!

(After reaching the end of the grindrail, an infobot video plays.)
Grimroth Razz: Hey, Ratchet. Grim here. Been followin' your adventures and I couldn't be happier for ya.

Grimroth Razz: Listen, I don't know if I ever told you this, but I have a brother on Pokitaru. His name's Felton. We don't talk much, on account of him being a bit of a slacker. But he sent me a distress call this morning.

Grimroth Razz: He said Drek was attacking Pokitaru with these hydroharvester things! I guess the blarg want their ocean water for something. I tried callin' the Rangers, but Captain Qwark kept directing me to his agent.

Grimroth Razz: Anyway, if you have a moment, could you swing by and check in on him? Thanks, kid... I'm proud of ya.

(After taking the teleporter back to the start again before completing "Destroy the battleships".)
Clank: Ratchet, Cora needs our assistance. We should head into the city and help the Rangers protect Starwatch.

(After taking the teleporter back to the start again after completing all other objectives.)
Clank: We should head to Pokitaru and assist Grimroth's brother.

(When standing on the now active teleporter back at the start of the grindrail.)
On-screen: Return to Grindrail End

Jowai Resort, Pokitaru

(Cutscene plays.)
Alonzo Drek (communicator): Home Base to Alpha Team. The time has come to give our new planet the finest water supply in the galaxy. Initiate the hydroharvesters and sap this planet dry!

Blarg commander (communicator): Copy that, Chairman. You heard him, team! Activate all harvesters and deploy ground teams. If anyone even gets close to those harvesters, ice 'em!

Meet up with Felton Razz (gameplay)

(Upon exiting the ship and regaining control of Ratchet.)
On-screen: Pokitaru

Qwark (narrating): Pokitaru's water supply was in trouble. If Ratchet and Clank failed to destroy Drek's hydroharvesters, this tropical paradise would become a desert wasteland.

(When in close vicinity to Felton.)

Felton Razz

• Hey, over here!
• Are you the lombax my brother told me about?
• The blarg are here!
• Come on, this way!

(When in close vicinity to Felton after leaving and returning to Pokitaru.)

Felton Razz

• Hey, Ratchet!
• Come on, this way!
• Let's keep movin'.
• Hey, over here!

(Upon reaching Felton, a cutscene plays.)
Felton Razz: Well dip me in breadcrumbs and feed me to a snagglebeast! Grim told me he was friends with a lombax, but I didn't believe him. I've never seen one in real life before. You must be Ratchet.

Ratchet: This is so weird. The resemblance—it's...

Felton Razz: Uncanny, I know.

Ratchet: Grim asked us to help you destroy Drek's hydroharvesters.

Felton Razz: If you're gonna destroy those things, we're gonna have to upgrade your ship. It just so happens the best upgrade guy in the galaxy is here for a comic book convention. Follow me, I'll take you to him!

(Upon reaching Felton again after leaving and returning to Pokitaru.)
Felton Razz: Hey, where'd ya go?! Come on, my boat's this way!

Find the technician (gameplay)

(Whilst following Felton and encountering puffoids.)
Felton Razz: The puffoids have been comin' ashore ever since the blarg started attacking. Nasty little devils—but tasty if you know how to cook 'em.

(Upon encountering a telepathopus.)
Felton Razz: It's a telepathopus!

(Upon defeating the telepathopus.)
Felton Razz: Hey, that was pretty good. Did my brother teach you to do that?

(As Felton is heading towards his boat.)

Felton Razz

• My boat's just ahead.
• Come on, my boat's this way!

(If Ratchet does not jump onto the boat with Felton.)

Felton Razz

• Come on, my boat's this way!
• Hurry up, before we see more telepathopuses.
• We don't have a lotta time! Hop on before they send in more troops!

(Upon jumping onto the boat with Felton and departing.)
Felton Razz: All right, strap in! Ha, I'm just kiddin'—this thing doesn't have any seatbelts.

(During the boat journey with Felton.)
Felton Razz: I actually had a lovely fishing trip planned before these hydroharvesters showed up and ruined everything.

Ratchet: Oh, how long was your trip?

Felton Razz: Going on about ten years now. The fishing was just startin' to get good, too!

(If Ratchet jumps off of the boat and into the water.)

Felton Razz

• Hey, where'd ya go?!
• Now is not the time for a swim!
• Whoops, lombax overboard! Come on back, now! We have an ocean to save!

(Once the boat has come to a stop and Felton continues on foot.)
Felton Razz: Let's keep movin'.

(Upon encountering toxic crabs and more puffoids.)
Felton Razz: Oh, boy, more puffoids. You two can handle this, right? I'm more into fishing than fighting—you understand.

(Upon defeating all of the puffoids and toxic crabs in the area.)
Felton Razz: I think ya got 'em all. Come on.

(Upon heading forward and encountering more puffoids.)
Ratchet: Here come some more!

(Upon approaching the base of the waterfall along the path to the second boat.)
Felton Razz: Aw, will ya look at that. Over there's the Torgoff Waterfall! Grim and I used to trek to the top of that thing every holiday, looking for gold bolts and such. Then one day he dared me to ride down in a barrel—I tell ya, I've never seen our father so angry. Oh, those were the days...

(Upon encountering a second telepathopus.)
Felton Razz: It's another telepathopus!

(More puffoids jump out of the water once the telepathopus' health reaches 50%.)
Felton Razz: Oh, great. More puffoids!

(Upon defeating the telepathopus and the rest of the puffoids in the area.)
Felton Razz: I think ya got 'em all. Come on.

(During the second boat journey with Felton.)
Felton Razz: So how's ol' Grim doin' these days? I haven't heard much from him since we moved here from the Polaris Galaxy. He runs a garage, right?

Ratchet: Yeah, on Veldin. It's small, but it's kinda cool. We do mostly hover conversions, proton scrubs, that sort of thing.

Felton Razz: And now you're a Galactic Ranger. Grim must be so proud.

Ratchet: Actually, I don't know. I was supposed to help him with some proton scrubs, but I left in kind of a hurry. Hope he's not too angry with me.

Felton Razz: Bahh, he'll be all right. You're out protecting the galaxy! What's that compared to a few proton scrubs?

(When approaching the end of the second boat journey with Felton.)
Felton Razz: My friend's not far from here. He'll be able to help you out.

(After continuing on foot with Felton and reaching the retracted bridge.)
Felton Razz: Ah, great. The bridge is out. These blarg are really startin' to cramp my fishing trip! Do me a favor and see if you can activate it from the other side.

(If Ratchet does not jump over to the switch.)
Felton Razz: Go ahead, hop across!

(Upon reaching the other side where the switch is located.)
Felton Razz: Good! The bridge switch should be somewhere over there!

(If Ratchet does not activate the switch and heads on past it.)
Felton Razz: Hey, what about me?! Come back!

(After standing on the switch and extending the bridge for Felton.)
Felton Razz: Thanks. Come on, it's not too far now.

(Upon heading forward and encountering blarg troopers fighting puffoids.)
Felton Razz: Oh, boy. That's not good. Looks like the blarg have reached the city!

Ratchet: Looks like the puffoids are giving them a run for their money.

Felton Razz: We won't be able to reach my friend until the ground troops are cleared out.

Ratchet: We're on it. Stay here and keep safe.

(Upon defeating all of the puffoids and blarg troopers in the area.)
Felton Razz: I think that's the last of them.

Clank: I am detecting another bridge control switch in the vicinity. We should activate it so Felton is not left behind.

(If Ratchet does not activate the second switch and heads on past it.)
Felton Razz: Come back! You forgot to activate the bridge controls!

(After standing on the switch and extending the second bridge for Felton.)
Felton Razz: I'm comin'! Sorry, I'm a little out of shape.

(Upon reaching the fighting blarg and puffoids outside the tiki lounge.)
Felton Razz: Look—over there! The Pokitaru Tiki Lounge and Karaoke Bar! With any luck my engineer friend will be there.

Clank: Who is your friend?

Felton Razz: The guy's on my holo-game forum call him "Big Al."

Ratchet: Oh, we know him. We met him in Aleero City. Nice dude, a little weird.

Felton Razz: Yeah, that's Al! But he's the best upgrade guy in the business.

(Upon defeating the first telepathopus outside the tiki lounge.)
Big Al (muffled): Hey, what's going on out there?! I'm trying to sing my soul-stirring rendition of Lexi Orion's "Ain't No One Gonna Love Me," and you're ruining the moment!

(Upon clearing the area of all enemies.)

Felton Razz

• Coming!
• Wait for me!
• Here I come!
• Hey, wait up!
• Right behind you!
• I'm comin', be patient!
• I'm comin'! Sorry, I'm a little out of shape.

(Once Felton reaches the area outside the tiki lounge.)
Felton Razz: Good work. Okay, let's get inside. Hey Al, can you open up?!

Big Al (muffled): What's the secret password?

Felton Razz: Aww, c'mon, don't make me say it!

Big Al (muffled): Well, your call. I have Lexi Orion's entire anthology here, and I can sing through it track by track.

Felton Razz: Yeah, all right... "All hail Big Al the Conqueror..."

Big Al (muffled): Go on...

Felton Razz: "The glory of his level-twenty Spellcaster burns brighter than the fourth star of Julius Major."

(Upon entering the tiki lounge after the door opens, a cutscene plays.)
Big Al: Hey, Ratchet! Clank! Small galaxy. How's m'lady Cora doing?

Ratchet: Uh, she's good. Uh listen, we're here to help take out these hydroharvesters. You think you could help us upgrade our on-board weapon system?

Big Al: Always happy to help the Galactic Rangers! How about a Teslablast weapon kit? It uses polarized electro-emitters to increase propulsion by 128.7%! Even a raritanium hull is no match for those babies!

Ratchet: Sounds like exactly what we need. You lead the way—we'll cover you!

(Upon jumping onto the boat with Felton and Al and returning back to the ship.)
Big Al: I'm starting to get reeeeal tired of these blarg. You know they showed up just as I was about to speak on a panel about everything wrong with comic book-based holo-films? All the great bloggers were on it. Me, Stuart Zurgo, Obsidia Van Schmoot...

Felton Razz: Van Schmoot was there?! Really?! Aww, I love her—she hates everything.

Big Al: There isn't a holo-film, game, or online product launch she hasn't shredded in the comment section. You know, that kind of judgement takes real skill.

(Upon the boat reaching a stop.)
Felton Razz: We have reached our destination!

(Upon arriving back at the ship with Al and Felton, a cutscene plays.)
Big Al: Here we are. All right, let's pop the hood and get you that weapon system! Reinstalling weapon software... rebooting system... done!

Computer: Teslablast weapon kit detected. Happy hunting!

Destroy the hydroharvesters (gameplay)

(The cutscene continues.)
Felton Razz (communicator): What're ya waitin' for? Take out those hydroharvesters!

Big Al (communicator): Remember, normal ammunition won't damage those hydroharvesters. Use your tesla-rockets!

Big Al (communicator): Shoot down those blarg saucers, they'll drop ammo and health for you to pick up.

(After the cutscene has played and control of the ship is regained.)
On-screen: / Missile

(Upon first firing at a hydroharvester with the ships machine guns.)
Ratchet (communicator): I don't think we're doin' much damage with these guns.

(Upon firing at a hydroharvester with the ships machine guns.)

• Ratchet (communicator): We gotta switch to tesla-rockets!
• Clank (communicator): We must use our tesla-rockets.
• Big Al (communicator): Your new tesla-rockets should be able to damage the hulls on those hydroharvesters.

(Upon first destroying a section of a hydroharvester with a tesla-rocket.)
Ratchet (communicator): It's working!

(Upon destroying a target with the ships weapons.)

Big Al (communicator)

• Nice shot!
• You got it!
• Another enemy down!
• Nice shooting, Ratchet!
• Aha-ha-haaa! I love it when things go boom!
• Enemy down! That's what they get for ruining my panel!
• Sweet! What did I tell you, those tesla-rockets pack a punch!

Felton Razz (communicator)

• Right on!
• Nice shot!
• Nailed one!
• Awesome shot!
• Enemy destroyed!
• Ha! Make it rain!
• Yeah, give us back our water!

Computer: Target destroyed.

(When a group of blarg saucers fall into formation to perform a combined attack.)
Ratchet (communicator): Oh, boy...

Clank (communicator): Those saucers are about to attack!

(When a group of blarg saucers are about to perform a combined attack.)
Big Al (communicator): Do a barrel roll!

(Upon destroying one of the three hydroharvesters.)
Ratchet (communicator): That's one hydroharvester down, two to go!

Blarg (communicator): Chairman, one of the Galactic Rangers is on Pokitaru! He's taking out our hydroharvesters!

Alonzo Drek (communicator): Now you listen to me. I want that water. Failure is not an option! Destroy the Galactic Ranger or I'll make sure the first person buried on our new planet is you!

Blarg (communicator): Yes, Chairman!

(Upon destroying two of the three hydroharvesters.)
Ratchet (communicator): Yeah! One hydroharvester left.

(Upon destroying the final hydroharvester.)
Ratchet (communicator): That's all of 'em!

Felton Razz (communicator): Yeah-heah! You two saved the resort—and probably the entire planet!

Clank (communicator): All in a day's work.

(After the ship lands again and Ratchet exits, a cutscene plays.)
Big Al: That was incredible! Say, if you two need any more upgrades, I'm your guy. How about a new thrusterpack? I just downloaded the holo-plans last night and they are sweet!

Clank: Hmm... That certainly sounds useful.

Big Al: Recalibrating the avionics port... updating the software... updating... still updating... aaand presto! She's all ready for you. Technically you need a Class B licence to operate one of these beauties, but what the heck—you two are Galactic Rangers!

(Upon regaining control of Ratchet.)
Big Al: It should help you access those pumping stations.

Big Al: Why don't you try it out on that gear crank over there?

OPTIONAL: Clean up Amoeboids in Pumping Station (gameplay)

(Upon turning the thrusterbolt nearby the ship to deactivate the pumping station force fields.)
Computer: Security barrier disabled.

Clank: Perhaps we can find our way into the pumping station now.

(When standing on the now accessible teleporter.)
On-screen: Blarg Pumping Station

(Upon using the teleporter to enter the pumping station.)
On-screen: Blarg Pumping Station

(Upon heading forward into the pumping station.)
Ratchet: Eugh, oh, that smells terrible. It's like rotten amoeboid slime. I bet the blarg are hiding some nice loot in here.

(Upon entering the large room full of amoeboids.)
Ratchet: Hey, fellas!

(Upon defeating some of the amoeboids and more entering the room.)
Ratchet: Oh, great. More of them.

(After surfacing from the water and engaging the room of amoeboids.)
Clank: More amoeboids on approach.

(Upon defeating all of the amoeboids in the area.)
Ratchet: We're all clear.

(After turning a thrusterbolt to deactivate the force field and collecting the O2 mask.)
Ratchet: An O2 mask! Now I can finally breathe underwater!

(When standing on the teleporter inside the pumping station.)
On-screen: Jowai Resort

(Upon using the teleporter to exit the pumping station.)
On-screen: Jowai Resort

OPTIONAL: Find a way to the top of the waterfall (gameplay)

(Upon defeating the telepathopus at the top of the waterfall to obtain the gold bolt, before going to Quartu.)
Qwark (communicator): Ratchet, report in with your status.

Ratchet: Clank and I are on Pokitaru. We just stopped Drek from siphoning the planet's water supply.

Qwark (communicator): You went without me?! I mean—that's fine. It's okay. It's time for us to assault Drek Industries and put an end to the blarg's treachery.

Ratchet: Copy that!

Skorg City, Quartu (2)

Meet up with the Galactic Rangers (gameplay)

(Movie cutscene plays.)
Qwark: All right, Rangers. Our plan of attack is simple.

Qwark: HALO drop into Skorg City... Fire a whole mess o' bullets... And take Drek into custody so we can be home in time for waffles. Mmm-hmm!

Brax Lectrus: Yeah! Yeah, waffles!

Ratchet: (laughs) Ohh, that's good. (laughs)

Elaris: Wait—that's our plan?

Qwark: (deep inhale) Yes it is.

Clank: Pardon me, Captain, but Chairman Drek is cunning. He will be prepared for our assault.

Qwark: Look, I think it is beyond adorable that you decided to do all this home work. But big heroes do big things.

Qwark: Let's take a vote. All those in favor of kicking in Drek's front door with a massive arsenal and restoring peace to a galaxy in turmoil, say "Aye."

Ratchet, Cora Verolux and Brax Lectrus: Aye!

Qwark: All those in favor of nerding it up here with some pie charts, say "Nay."

Clank and Elaris: Nay.

Qwark: Motion passes. We assault Drek Industries tonight!

On-screen: Upper Atmosphere, Planet Quartu

Qwark: Lock and load, Rangers! Suit up and rally in the aft airlock.

Qwark: All right, team. Let's bring it in! Remember, our target is Chairman Drek!

Qwark: Ready, Rangers? On the count of three.

Qwark: Three!

Brax Lectrus: Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!

Cora Verolux: Keep up, rookie!

Ratchet: All right, pal, you ready?!

Clank: Well, I, uh... Waaahhhhh!

Ratchet: Woohoo!

Clank: Whoaa!

Brax Lectrus: Yeah-heah!

Ratchet: (laughs)

Clank: Agghh...ugh...ahhhh! Ratchet, now— Ahhhhh!

Ratchet: Yeah-heah!

Ratchet: Waaahoooooo!

Qwark: Huh?!

Infiltrate the factory (gameplay)

(After the movie cutscene plays and control of Ratchet is regained.)
On-screen: Quartu

Ratchet: Ratchet to Rangers. I've landed in Quartu, but I ran outta jetpack fuel.

Qwark (communicator): Brax and I are heading over to the complex. We'll split up and keep radio contact. Good luck, team.

Cora Verolux (communicator): Drek Industries is up ahead. Let's move.

(If Ratchet does not follow Cora.)

Cora Verolux (communicator)

• We should keep moving.
• What are you waiting for?!
• Keep up!
• Stay on my six.
• Come on, Ratchet!
• This way!
• You okay, Ratchet?

(If Ratchet does not follow Cora to the platform past the swingshot targets.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): You coming? Just use your swingshot.

(Upon reaching Cora on the platform by the Gadgetron vendor.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Follow me.

(Upon swingshotting across to the factory.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Enemies up ahead. I'll cover you.

(After defeating all enemies in the area.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): I'll hit the switch, wait here!

(Once Cora hits the switch and the bridge begins extending.)
Computer: Versa-bridge activated.

Cora Verolux (communicator): Try crossing now.

(If Ratchet does not cross the bridge and follow Cora.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): You coming?

(Upon following Cora to the next area with the patrolling enemies.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Careful. Guards up ahead.

(Upon Cora reaching cover.)

Cora Verolux (communicator)

• Fire when ready. I'll cover you.
• This way.
• Follow me.

(Upon reaching Cora without yet alerting the patrolling enemies.)
Blarg trooper: Everyone be on alert. If that lombax or his robot pal show up, ice 'em!

(Upon engaging the patrolling enemies.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Attack!

(After defeating some enemies, reinforcements arrive.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Heads up, we got some fliers!

(When two enemies remain in the area.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Two left!

(When one enemy remains in the area.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Last one!

(After defeating all enemies in the area.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Not bad, for a rookie.

(Cora approaches the force field over the main factory door.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Huh, place looks pretty secure. Any ideas on a point-of-entry?

Clank: Ratchet—the last time I was here, I used the air purification vents to escape. Perhaps we could now use them to get into the factory.

Ratchet: Good thinking, Clank.

(Upon approaching the force field at the main factory door.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Hmm. Any ideas?

Clank: I believe I may be of assistance here.

(Upon approaching the entrance to the vents.)
Ratchet: Look—over there!

(When standing at the entrance to the vents.)
On-screen: Send Clank to Investigate

(Upon sending Clank to investigate.)
Ratchet: Be careful in there, Clank.

(Upon gaining control of Clank.)
On-screen: Factory Security Wing

Clank: Come in, Rangers. I am inside Drek Industries' ventilation system.

Qwark (communicator): Good work, cadet. I wish I was in that vent with you. Curse these abnormally-large muscles!

Elaris (communicator): There is a security terminal just north of your position. Shut it down and the Rangers should be able to access the building.

Disable the security lasers (gameplay)

(After hitting the switch to open the door and entering the next room.)
Zed: Here we are—the Gadgetron Career Opportunities Page. "Please state your current position." Assistant...to...evil...villain. "List relevant skills." Heavy filing... answering calls... assisting...in...planetary destruction... annnd bookkeeping. "Have you ever been convicted of a felony?" Hmm... not... yet?

(Whilst in the area across the lava from Zed.)
Clank: I must get across.

(Whilst using the bridgebot to cross the lava towards Zed.)
Zed: It's the defect! What are you doing back here?!

(After Zed runs away.)
Clank: There must be a way through this room.

(Computer announcements.)

Computer

• Attention all warbots—warbot platoon seven-seven-four has successfully completed training and is ready for action. Congratulations. Now go out there and ruin someone's day.
• Attention all warbots—a bug in your system settings has been discovered. You should never add flowers to your battery packs. You should add power. Please, see your nearest engineer for a software upgrade. Engineers, mandatory typing classes have now been ordered by Chairman Drek.
• Attention all warbots—Chairman Drek would like to thank you for your hard work. Ice cream sandwiches will be served in the cafeteria this afternoon from one-ten to one-fifteen PM. Also, a friendly reminder that there is a mandatory meeting for all warbots from one to one-thirty on Deck B. Any warbots not attending will be destroyed.

(If Clank has not reprogrammed any gadgebots yet.)
Clank: I must reprogram the gadgebots here if I want to get farther into the facility.

(After opening the small room containing the throwable bombs.)
Zed: You're not supposed to be in here! You'd better leave before Chairman Drek finds you!

(Upon breaking the grate to the next room with a bomb.)
Clank: All done.

(Upon entering the next room through the broken grate.)
Zed: Turn back now, defect! I'm warning you!

(Zed hits a switch to drop a crate full of chompers into the room with Clank.)
Zed: Special delivery from Chairman Drek!

(Upon destroying all of the chompers.)
Zed: Aw, that didn't work at all!

(Upon smashing some crates in the room.)
Zed: Aww, I just finished stacking those...

(Upon powering up and raising the large hydraulic press.)
Clank: Oh, my. That looks dangerous.

(Upon passing under the hydraulic press into the conveyor belt area.)
Zed: Let's see you think your way outta this one.

Clank: Sisterboard, do not fail me now.

(After some seconds.)
Ratchet (communicator): Everything goin' okay, pal?

Clank: I am almost there, but I have run into an obstacle. Drek's assistant Zed is attempting to keep me from reaching the security terminal.

Brax Lectrus (communicator): Understood. Elaris, carpet bomb the factory with pyrocidic blast mines!

Elaris (communicator): I think it's probably safer if we let Clank handle things.

Clank: I would prefer that as well.

(If Clank has not yet progressed in the gadgebot puzzle.)
Clank: Hmm. Perhaps I should try placing a gadgebot on that conveyor belt.

(After passing through the series of hydraulic presses on the conveyor belt.)
Zed: Okay, that's far enough. This ends now!

(After the explosive crates Zed drops from the ceiling detonate without Clank being damaged.)
Zed: (gasps) How did you best my brilliance?!

(If Clank takes damage from the explosive crates Zed drops from the ceiling.)
Zed: You're not so tough now, tough guy!

(If Clank has not yet progressed in the next phase of the gadgebot puzzle.)
Clank: I must create a stable surface before I can activate that power receptor by the lava.

(After extending a bridgebot over the lava by the power receptor behind the metal grate.)
Clank: Hmm. That metal grate should act as a conductor for the powerbot.

(Upon solving the gadgebot puzzle and opening the door.)
Clank: Good work, gadgebot!

(Upon entering the now open door to the next room.)
Zed: How are you so smart?! Warbots are supposed to be simple soldiers! Who upgraded you?!

(After hitting the switch and entering the next room.)
Zed: Okay, you want to fight? How about fighting a real Warbot?!

(If Clank takes damage from a warbot.)

Zed

• Yeah, get him!
• Give him the ol' one-two!
• You're not so tough now, tough guy!

(Upon destroying the first warbot.)
Zed: Wait until Victor sees that I've captured you. Then I'll be top henchman! Maybe he can spend all day stacking crates!

(Upon destroying the second warbot.)
Zed: How about two warbots?! Ha-hah!

(Upon destroying the last two warbots.)
Zed: This isn't fair! I can't compete with this!

Clank: Not bad for a defect. (chuckles)

(After breaking a grate with a bomb and entering the next room.)
On-screen: Central Security Station

Zed: Ahhhh!

(Zed locks himself inside a shipping crate blocking the way to the next room.)
Zed: There's certainly nothing you can do about this crate blocking your way into the security room.

Zed: Yep, I'd just give up if I were you!

Clank: Hmm. Perhaps that magnet can be of assistance.

(Whilst Zed is locked inside of the shipping crate.)

Zed

• I must have so many unread emails right now...
• I hope Victor doesn't see me like this, I'd never hear the end of it!
• Aw, I'm missing Lance and Janice! It's the season finale too...
• Uhhh... I'm gonna lose my job for this mess...
• I don't like the look of that magnet over there. Magnets—just can't trust them.

(If Clank has not yet completed the gadgebot puzzle.)
Clank: That crane requires multiple powerbots. I must search this room.

(Upon smashing some crates in the room.)
Zed: Stop smashing things! That's coming out of my paycheck!

(Upon collecting the holocard pack.)
Zed: Hey, I was collecting those! Aww, this is the worst day ever...

(Upon powering up the first power receptor with a gadgebot.)
Zed: What are you doing?! Are you using that magnet?! Everything in here is the property of Drek Industries! What you're doing is—well, rude! Do you see us coming over to your lair and taking over your magnets?!

(After some seconds.)
Zed: You're getting too close! Computer, dial Chairman Drek!

Computer: Dialing Chairman Drek. (phone ringing)

Alonzo Drek (recording): Greetings. You've reached the voice mailbox of Chairman Alonzo Drek. I'm away from my phone right now—probably in a meeting or something, perhaps securing a future for our race. Any-hoo, leave a message at the beep. Unless it's bad news. The next person who brings me bad news goes straight to the lava pit! (phone beep)

Zed: (nervous laugh) Heeeeeey, Mister—I mean Chairman Drek. It's Zed. Calling for, um, no reason. Everything's fine. I'm totally not cowering inside a shipping crate or anything. In fact, I was just calling to assure you that there is nothing to worry about. Security is, you know, secure. So, um... bye!

(After activating the magnet and lifting the shipping crate, a cutscene plays.)
Zed: Hey, let me down!

Zed: Heed my warning, warbot! You and that terminal are the property of Drek Industries! Don't you dare execute that command!

Zed: (gasps) You executed it! Well, don't even think about double clicking on the security icon and bypassing our systems!

Zed: You did it again! I don't believe this...

Clank: Come in, team. I have disengaged the facility's security grid.

Ratchet (communicator): Good work, pal. See you back at the factory tarmac.

Brax Lectrus (communicator): Nice work, little buddy.

Cora Verolux (communicator): You did well, Clank.

(Upon regaining control of Ratchet.)
Qwark (communicator): Yeah, uh—wait, what are we talking about? I zoned out for a second.

(If Clank backtracks through the factory security wing and tries to bring gadgebots to unauthorized areas.)
Computer: Recalling unauthorized gadgebot.

Investigate the factory (gameplay)

(Whilst entering the main door into the factory with Cora.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): All right, let's head inside and find Drek.

(Upon heading inside the factory, a movie cutscene plays.)
Cora Verolux: Engaging motion scan.

Evil Zurkons: Zurkon Zurkon Zurkon Zurkon Zurkon Zurkon Zurkon.

Ratchet: Woah!

(After the movie cutscene is over and control of Ratchet is regained.)
Evil Zurkon: Evil Zurkon enjoys shooting friendly furballs.

Alonzo Drek (loudspeaker): I hope you enjoy your tour of my factory, Rangers. I've even arranged a demonstration of the good Doctor's latest models!

(Whilst in combat with evil Zurkons.)

Evil Zurkon

• Evil Zurkon is very evil.
• Evil Zurkon hates furballs.
• You will not like Evil Zurkon. Promise.
• Evil Zurkon is good at one thing—being evil.
• Evil Zurkon enjoys shooting friendly furballs.
• Evil Zurkon may not look evil—but Evil Zurkon acts evil.

(If Ratchet takes damage from an evil Zurkon.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Find some cover!

(Once all of the evil Zurkons in the hallway have been destroyed.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Toasted.

(If Ratchet does not follow Cora into the elevator.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Into the elevator, hurry!

(Whilst descending with Cora in the elevator overlooking the factory floor.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): It looks like the main office is up there.

Clank: Oh, my—this assembly line is the place of my creation. I am experiencing many conflicting feelings.

(Upon exiting the descended elevator.)
On-screen: Warbot Factory

(Upon stepping onto the inactive teleporter.)
Ratchet: We have to find Drek before we teleport outta here.

(After following the conveyor belt and engaging more evil Zurkons.)
Evil Zurkon: You will not like Evil Zurkon. Promise.

(Upon destroying all of the evil Zurkons in the area.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Good shooting.

Ratchet: There's a fueling station behind that force field.

Cora Verolux (communicator): You go for the station, I'll cover you.

(Upon following a conveyor belt to an area with blarg troopers and a turret.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Think you can flank that turret?

(Upon defeating all of the blarg troopers in the area.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Nice work. Let's move.

(Whilst following a conveyor belt through a series of laser obstacles.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Watch yourself over here.

(Upon reaching the end of the conveyor belt and being attacked by more evil Zurkons.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): We've got Zurkons!

(Upon destroying all of the evil Zurkons in the area.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Not bad, Ratchet.

Alonzo Drek (loudspeaker): Oh, did you enjoy my Zurkons? Don't worry, there are plenty more surprises ahead. Get ready... Ahahahahaha! Ahahahahahaha!

(Whilst following more conveyor belts through laser obstacles.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Here we go!

(Upon being attacked by more evil Zurkons.)
Clank: Oh dear, more of them!

(Whilst destroying the evil Zurkons, warbot reinforcements arrive.)
Warbot: Target acquired.

Ratchet: Warbots!

(Upon destroying all of the evil Zurkons and warbots in the area.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): All clear over here. Let's move.

(Upon reaching the Trespasser terminal at the refueling station's force field.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): You made it. Now use the Trespasser to access the refueling station.

(Upon completing the Trespasser puzzle.)
Computer: Force field deactivated.

(Upon standing on the fuel station pad.)
Ratchet: Okay, I refuelled my jetpack.

Cora Verolux (communicator): Good, let's secure the upper level and get into that office!

Alonzo Drek (loudspeaker): As you can see we're at peak warbot supply. It's the perfect time to break into new markets around the galaxy.

(Upon destroying the three warbots, a force field is activated over the entrance to Drek's office.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Argh! Drek and his stupid force fields!

Elaris (communicator): There's a security terminal on the opposite side of the room, across from the office. Get in there to shut down that force field.

(Six more warbots arrive as reinforcements.)
Warbot: Cora Verolux, identified.

Ratchet: More warbots, coming our way!

Cora Verolux (communicator): Let's take out these warbots, then deactivate those lasers.

(Whilst fighting the six remaining warbots.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Captain, are you there?! Ratchet and I are under fire and we need assistance, over!

Qwark (communicator): Uh, understood, Ranger. I'm sorta tied up over here myself. Yep, looootta enemies. Too many, really. Get outta here, enemies! Yeah, I'm under a lotta heavy fire, so unfortunately I won't be able to assist. So, eh, heh-heh, good luck.

Cora Verolux (communicator): (sighs) Brax, we could use a hand here. Brax?

Brax Lectrus (communicator): They're here! Take that, you lousy synthenoids!

Cora Verolux (communicator): Great. Well, looks like it's all on us.

(Upon destroying the six remaining warbots, more warbots and evil Zurkons come out of the security room.)
Ratchet: More of them—by the security room!

(Upon destroying all of the warbots and evil Zurkons guarding the security room.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Area secure. Let's move!

(Upon entering the security room.)
Clank: There is the security terminal. You must disable it.

(After hitting the switch and deactivating the force field over the entrance to Drek's office, a cutscene plays.)
Brax Lectrus: You can all relax now—I'm finally here.

Mrs. Zurkon: Goodbye, stupid Ranger.

Brax Lectrus: Ahhhhh— oof!

Brax Lectrus: I'm okay!

Cora Verolux: You wanna take this one?

(Upon beginning the fight against Mrs. Zurkon, she deploys several evil Zurkons.)
Mrs. Zurkon: Yoo-hoo! It's time to meet the family! Ha-ha-ha!

Alonzo Drek (loudspeaker): (chuckles) Enjoy the last minutes of your lives, Rangers! Wish I could stay and watch, but I've gotta run! Toodles!

Cora Verolux (communicator): We can't let that slimeball get away!

(Upon Mrs. Zurkon deploying more evil Zurkons.)

Mrs. Zurkon

• It's time to meet the Zurkons!
• The Zurkons will destroy you now.

(Upon damaging Mrs. Zurkon.)

Mrs. Zurkon

• Your feeble weapons are stupid!
• You dare to shoot Mrs. Zurkon?!
• How dare you shoot Mrs. Zurkon!

Cora Verolux (communicator)

• Keep firing!
• Yeah, keep at it!

(Upon being damaged by Mrs. Zurkon.)

Mrs. Zurkon

• One little, two little, dead little Rangers!
• Ha-ha-ha! Mrs. Zurkon has brought you closer to death.
• It will not be long now, furball. Mrs. Zurkon is winning.

Cora Verolux (communicator): Keep moving, Ratchet!

(Upon using the Groovitron on Mrs. Zurkon.)
Mrs. Zurkon: Mrs. Zurkon has not forgotten how to dance.

(Upon Mrs. Zurkon's health reaching 80%, she creates a shield.)
Mrs. Zurkon: Zurkons will now activate super awesome shield.

Cora Verolux (communicator): Destroy her shield!

(Upon damaging Mrs. Zurkon's shield.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Keep shooting, it's working!

(Upon destroying Mrs. Zurkon's shield.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Her shield's down—fire!

(Upon Mrs. Zurkon's health reaching 50%, she creates another shield.)
Mrs. Zurkon: Mrs. Zurkon will now protect her family.

(After defeating Mrs. Zurkon.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Yeah! The bigger they are!

(Cora flies towards the entrance to Drek's office.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): I'm gonna go investigate that office. Meet me there.

Elaris (communicator): Ratchet, I dispatched your ship to the Drek Industries tarmac. We'll see you back on Kerwan.

(Upon reaching Cora at the entrance to Drek's office.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Hey, can you take care of this lock?

(Upon completing the Trespasser puzzle and opening the door to Drek's office.)
Ratchet: Got it!

Cora Verolux (communicator): We're in! Come on.

(Movie cutscene plays.)
Clank: Hmm... fascinating. These are plans for something called a "Deplanetizer."

Cora Verolux: Deplanetizer?

Ratchet: Why would Drek be destroying planets?

Clank: Not destroy...

Clank: It seems that Drek is trying to build the perfect planet.

Zed: Hey, wait for me! Wait!

Alonzo Drek: Huh? (sighs)

Zed: You don't even have my email! It's Spacegangsta underscore seventy-two underscore X hyphen X triple underscore dollar sign...

Zed: Ugh! (laughs nervously)

Zed: Okay, okay! Novalis! He wants Novalis!

Cora Verolux: Novalis...? Novalis is populated.

Zed: Yes! Forty-three million, six hundred and eighteen thousand, nine hundred and twenty-four people to be exact! The Schnorkelsons had twins this morning!

Cora Verolux: We gotta move.

(After the movie cutscene has played and control of Ratchet is regained.)
Qwark (communicator): There's not a minute to lose, Rangers. Let's rendevous and head toward this Deplanetizer-thingie.

(When standing on the active teleporter by the ship.)
On-screen: Teleport Inside

(When standing on the active teleporter inside the warbot factory.)
On-screen: Teleport Outside

(If Ratchet and Clank leave Quartu and return.)
Qwark (narrating): Our heroes return for the only thing remaining on the planet. Loot.

(Upon approaching the teleporter by the ship after returning to Quartu.)
Clank: That teleporter should take us back to the factory.

Deplanetizer (1)

Infiltrate the Deplanetizer (gameplay)

(Movie cutscene plays.)
On-screen: Deplanetizer, Near Planet Novalis

Cora Verolux: Fighters ready to rock. So what's the plan, Captain?

Qwark: Huh? Oh, the plan. Yes. Here's what we're going to do, Rangers. I'll go in first and try to reason with this Drek character. See if we can talk this out, mano a mano.

Brax Lectrus: Talk? I don't follow, sir.

Cora Verolux: Sir, he's blown up five planets already! I think we're done talking.

Qwark: I'm goin' in.

Elaris: Captain, wait! Backup is on the way and we should— augghh!

(The movie cutscene switches to an in-game cutscene.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): Is it me, or does that plan just seem...

Brax Lectrus (communicator): Idiotic?

Ratchet (communicator): Hey, I'm sure Qwark knows what he's doing.

(After gaining control of the ship for some seconds, another cutscene plays.)
Alonzo Drek (communicator): Victor! The Galactic Rangers have decided to crash our party. Be a sport and show 'em a warm welcome, would you?

Victor von Ion (communicator): With pleasure, Chairman.

Elaris (communicator): (gasps) That's Victor Von Ion's death ship!

Take down Victor Von Ion (gameplay)

(After the cutscene has played and control of the ship is regained.)
Ratchet (communicator): All Rangers, engage Victor's ship! Qwark! Qwark? Where is he?!

(Ongoingly during the fight against Victor.)

Victor von Ion (communicator)

• Come and get me, lombax!
• I've been waiting for this!
• Killin' you is gonna be too easy.
• I've always hated the Galactic Rangers!
• Where'd you learn to fly, pre-school? He-heh!
• Get ready to watch your precious Novalis get blown to dust!
• There's a price on your head, lombax. And I intend to collect.
• Keep tryin' to take me down. I dare ya. No, I double dare ya! He-heh!
• You'll never take down my ship, I took first in the trials of Meridia—flying left-handed!

Cora Verolux (communicator)

• Brax, keep your line, I'm on your six!
• I'm comin' back around for another pass!
• My guns are running hot—engaging thermocoolers.

Brax Lectrus (communicator)

• Nice shot, Cora—keep it up!
• This is chaos—just the way I like it.
• That's one down—check that, two down.

Elaris (communicator)

• You're almost there, Rangers—keep fighting!
• Keep it up, Rangers! We're wearing them down!
• Rangers, stay sharp—it's a war zone out there.

(Upon Victor launching missiles at Ratchet's ship.)

Victor von Ion (communicator)

• Try this!
• Ready to die?
• Fire missiles!
• Missiles away!
• Ready missiles—fire!
• Let's see ya dodge this!
• Get ready! Hahahahahaha!

Cora Verolux (communicator)

• Homing missiles, inbound!
• Watch out for those missiles!

• Clank (communicator): Incoming missiles detected.
• Brax Lectrus (communicator): Homing missiles, inbound!

(If Ratchet flies his ship away from the battle area.)

• Brax Lectrus (communicator): Where's he going?!
• Cora Verolux (communicator): Ratchet, come back! We have to take down Victor!
• Victor von Ion (communicator): Aww, did I scare you away?
• Clank (communicator): Ratchet, you must turn back and take on Victor!

(Upon firing the second last available rocket.)

• Computer: Ammo low.
• Ratchet (communicator): We're almost outta tesla-rockets!

(Upon firing the last available rocket.)
Computer: Ammo depleted.

(Upon attempting to fire a rocket with no ammo left.)

Clank (communicator)

• We should acquire more rockets from those blarg saucers.
• We require rockets. Concentrate fire on those blarg saucers.
• We must collect more tesla-rockets from those blarg saucers.

Brax Lectrus (communicator): You're outta rockets! Try to get more by shooting down a few blarg ships!

(Upon collecting rocket ammo.)

Computer

• Ammo acquired.
• Ammunition replenished.
• Teslablast rockets acquired.

(If Ratchet does not attack Victor's death ship.)

• Brax Lectrus (communicator): Open fire on the death ship!
• Cora Verolux (communicator): Hit him with everything you've got!

(If Ratchet shoots the machine guns at Victor's death ship whilst having available rocket ammo.)

• Brax Lectrus (communicator): Use your rockets!
• Elaris (communicator): Fire your rockets at him!

(Upon depleting the health of Victor's death ship to 90%.)
Victor von Ion (communicator): You'll pay for that!

(Upon depleting the health of Victor's death ship to 80%.)
Victor von Ion (communicator): If you scratch my death ship, I'll murderize ya!

Cora Verolux (communicator): You're doin' great, Ratchet! Keep it up!

(Upon depleting the health of Victor's death ship to 70%.)
Victor von Ion (communicator): A lucky shot! It won't happen again.

(Upon depleting the health of Victor's death ship to 60%.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): You're doin' it!

(Upon depleting the health of Victor's death ship to 50%.)
Victor von Ion (communicator): It's gonna take more than that to destroy me.

(Upon depleting the health of Victor's death ship to 40%.)
Brax Lectrus (communicator): Keep firing, Ratchet! You've got him on the ropes!

(Upon reaching 33% health, Victor's death ship uses a tractor beam on Ratchet's ship.)
Cora Verolux (communicator): He's got a tractor beam!

Clank (communicator): Incoming missiles detected.

Ratchet (communicator): I can't steer!

Cora Verolux (communicator): Just shoot him!

(Upon depleting the health of Victor's death ship to 30%.)
Victor von Ion (communicator): I will not be destroyed by some space rat and his defect friend!

(Upon depleting the health of Victor's death ship to 20%.)
Victor von Ion (communicator): No lombax can take me down!

Cora Verolux (communicator): Keep it up! You're doin' it!

(Upon depleting the health of Victor's death ship to 10%.)
Victor von Ion (communicator): No! How is this possible?!

(Upon destroying Victor's death ship.)
Victor von Ion (communicator): No! Noooo!

Cora Verolux (communicator): You did it! Nice work, Ratchet!

Brax Lectrus (communicator): Yeah, nice work, kid.

(Cutscene plays.)
Victor von Ion: That was my best death ship! You'll pay for this, lombax!

(The in-game cutscene switches to a movie cutscene.)
Ratchet: Gah!

Elaris: Their defensive fire is too strong! Pull back! Your fighter won't make it!

Ratchet: Big heroes do big things.

Ratchet: Whoooaaaa!

Elaris: He made it!

Elaris: What was that?

Clank: I do not know. I will investigate.

Clank: Probably just the ship settling...

Clank: Nothing to be alarmed about... Whoooaaah! Dugh!

Clank: Oh, my.

The Phoenix

Defeat Victor Von Ion (gameplay)

(After the movie cutscene has played and control of Clank is gained.)
On-screen: The Phoenix

(Victor breaks through a nearby door and begins pursuing Clank.)
Victor von Ion: Uaghhh! You're not getting away this time!

(If Victor catches and subdues Clank.)
Victor von Ion: Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-hah!

(As Clank runs from Victor.)
Clank: Victor Von Ion has infiltrated the Phoenix! We must abandon the bridge!

Elaris (communicator): The fires are spreading out of control!

Clank: I have an idea. Can you access the ship's fire suppression system?

Elaris (communicator): Yes, but it's not going to be easy. The ship's power core is damaged so I had to divert everything to our primary systems. We can boot up the backup generator, but it'll have to be done manually.

Clank: How do I get to the backup generator?

Elaris (communicator): It's in engineering, but the door controls are fried. I need a minute to get them back online.

Clank: Do hurry.

(Whilst Victor is chasing Clank.)

Victor von Ion

• Uaghhh!
• I've got you now.
• Try outrunning this!
• This is the end for you, defect.
• You think you can run from me?!
• Get back here, you miserable defect!
• Quit your runnin', you useless piece of scrap!
• I'm gonna rip you apart, sprocket by sprocket!
• Get back here and let's settle this, warbot to warbot.

(After some seconds, two doors on the right will open.)
Elaris (communicator): There! Head inside!

(If Clank misses the doors.)
Elaris (communicator): You missed the doors! You can get them on the next pass—just keep moving!

(Upon passing the opened doors again.)
Elaris (communicator): Now's your chance!

(After entering one of the opened doors to engineering.)
Clank: I have arrived in engineering.

Elaris (communicator): There's a pair of backup generators you'll need to activate before we have power again. However, the generators need additional energy to jumpstart them. Think you can manage?

Clank: Leave this to me.

(Whilst Clank is in engineering.)
Brax Lectrus (communicator): Three more squadrons just deployed!

Cora Verolux (communicator): Bogeys at three, four, and eleven! I can't shake 'em!

(When an explosion is heard from Victor's rampaging.)

Victor von Ion (muffled)

• It's just a matter of time, defect.
• Hope you didn't need that. Ha-ha-ha!
• Soon you'll have nowhere left to hide.
• I'll carve your ship apart until I find you!
• I'll tear your precious ship apart piece by piece!

Elaris (communicator)

• We're losing systems left and right!
• The fires are spreading out of control!
• Wooh, I'm not sure how much this old bird can take!
• We're reaching catastrophic damage levels! You have to hurry!
• Structural integrity is below fifty percent! You have to stop that maniac!

(Whilst Clank solves the gadgebot puzzle.)

Victor von Ion (muffled)

• Show yourself, defect.
• Where are you, defect?
• Come on out and fight me!
• Are you in here? No... How about here?! Nrghhh! You think you're clever.

(If Clank is not progressing in the gadgebot puzzle in engineering.)
Clank: If I build new bridges in just the right way, I should be able to gather all of the gadgebots into a single location.

(If Clank takes damage from the pool of boiling oil.)
Elaris (communicator): Careful down there! That room is a lawsuit waiting to happen.

(If Clank hits a generator switch without powering up any receptors.)
Computer: Power at zero percent.

(If Clank hits the generator switch after powering up one of its three receptors.)
Computer: Power at thirty-five percent.

(If Clank hits the generator switch after powering up two of its three receptors.)
Computer: Power at seventy percent.

(If Clank hits the generator switch after powering up one of its two receptors.)
Computer: Power at fifty percent.

(After powering up the first generator's receptors and hitting the switch to activate it.)
Computer: Power full.

Elaris (communicator): Okay. On to the next one.

(After powering up the second generator's receptors and hitting the switch to activate it.)
Computer: Backup generator online.

Elaris (communicator): Yeah, you did it!

Clank: Now to see to those pumps.

(After leaving engineering, Clank is again chased by Victor through the hallway.)
Victor von Ion: I've got you now.

Elaris (communicator): I'm finding a route for you to take to the damage control room—that's where the pumps are. Just keep running!

Clank: I was not planning anything different.

Victor von Ion: I should have thrown you into the incinerator myself back on Quartu!

(After running from Victor for some seconds.)
Elaris (communicator): Okay, there's some air ducts nearby that should lead to the pumps.

(After running from Victor for some more seconds.)
Elaris (communicator): You're almost there!

(After some more seconds of running, two doors on the right open.)
Elaris (communicator): There! Hop inside!

(If Clank misses the doors.)
Elaris (communicator): You passed the air ducts! Keep running, you'll have to jump inside on your next pass!

(Upon passing the opened doors again.)
Elaris (communicator): Now's your chance!

(After entering one of the opened doors and jumping down the air duct to the damage control room.)
Clank: Thank you, Elaris. I have reached the damage control room.

Elaris (communicator): Try to restart the pumps, there should be a console there.

Clank: I will take care of this, keep supporting the Rangers.

(If Clank is not progressing in the puzzle.)
Clank: Hmm. That rotating device appears to be the key to gathering all of the gadgebots in this room.

(After powering up the receptors and hitting the switch to activate the pumps.)
Computer: Power full.

Elaris (communicator): Fantastic! The pumps are online! The fire suppression switch is in the back of the ship. Get there, quick!

(After leaving the damage control room and being chased by Victor again through the hallway.)
Victor von Ion: I'm gonna crush you! I'm gonna slice you!

(After running for a few more seconds.)
Elaris (communicator): There! Hit the switch!

(After hitting the switch, a cutscene plays.)
Computer: Fire suppression system activated.

Victor von Ion: Uaaaggghhh!

Clank: Oh, dear.

Deplanetizer (2)

Disable the Security System (gameplay)

(Upon regaining control of Ratchet.)
On-screen: Deplanetizer Wing A

Elaris (communicator): Ratchet—Victor is down. What's your status?

Ratchet: I found a way inside the Deplanetizer. Heading to the Starcracker chamber now.

Elaris (communicator): Copy that. Stay sharp.

(Upon entering the next room with the patrolling blarg enemies.)
Blarg elite commando: So, which planet are we destroying today?

Blarg trooper: Novalis.

Blarg elite commando: Novalis? Hm. Too bad, there's good fishing there.

(Upon engaging the blarg enemies.)
Blarg elite commando: Ah! The lombax is here! Take him out!

(Upon entering the next hallway.)
Brax Lectrus (communicator): Nice shot, Cora—keep it up!

Cora Verolux (communicator): I'm comin' back around for another pass!

(Upon entering the next large room and engaging the blarg enemies.)
Blarg space commando: It's the lombax—sound the alarm!

Alonzo Drek (loudspeaker): My, my. If ya wanted to come aboard the Deplanetizer there were much simpler ways of doing it (chuckles). It's a shame your visit will be a short one.

(After defeating most enemies in the area, reinforcements enter the room along with an upgraded warbot.)
Ratchet: Oh, great. More of them.

Warbot: Objective—terminate!

Ratchet: Uh-oh, looks like a new kind of warbot.

(Upon defeating all of the enemies and reinforcements in the area.)
Ratchet: I doubt that's the last of 'em.

(Upon leaving the room and entering the next hallway.)
Alonzo Drek (loudspeaker): Attention Strike Team Seven. It appears you were not aware that I, your boss, have a camera on the deck three break room. Why you think you can sit around playing cards while the others go after Ratchet and Clank boggles the mind! Get out there before I have to eject you into space myself!

(When standing outside the locked doors at the end of the dead end hallway.)
Qwark (narrating): Okay fans, the moment you've been waiting for. Captain Qwark here, ask me anything.

Qwark (narrating): What's my greatest asset? Loyalty.

(Upon approaching the raritanium ore in the middle of the next room and being sealed inside.)
Alonzo Drek (loudspeaker): Oh lombax, you're so predictable.

(After destroying all of the bladeball enemies and their generators.)
Ratchet: Maybe there's a Trespasser terminal around here.

(After completing the Trespasser puzzle and unlocking the door going forward.)
Ratchet: Okay, door's open!

Head to the Bridge (gameplay)

(Upon going through the unlocked door into the next hallway.)
Elaris (communicator): Ratchet, have you located Captain Qwark?

Ratchet: Not yet. Hope he's okay.

Elaris (communicator): Just keep looking—he's gotta be on the ship somewhere.

(After descending in the elevator and reaching the door into the next room.)
Computer: Deplanetizer firing coordinates locked. Target—Novalis.

(After defeating some blarg enemies in the next room, blarg elite commandos are deployed.)
Alonzo Drek (loudspeaker): He's in sector four. All units, converge and eliminate at all costs!

(Upon defeating most of the commandos, more reinforements arrive through now opened doors.)
Ratchet: Here come some more!

(Upon defeating most of the blarg enemies, robomutts enter the room.)
Computer: Deplanetizer power levels at fifty percent.

(Upon defeating the robomutts, a warbot enters the room through a now opened door.)
Warbot: Destroy. Destroy.

(Upon defeating all enemies in the area.)
Ratchet: (panting) See? Nothin' to it.

(Upon heading through the opened door into the next room.)
Alonzo Drek (loudspeaker): Is it true Cora Verolux is from Novalis? (chuckles) Oh, this is just too good! Not only do I get a choice piece of planet for New Quartu, but I get to destroy a Galactic Ranger's home?! Talk about a win-win.

(After defeating all of the blarg enemies in the room and warbot reinforcements arrive.)
Warbot: Terminate the lombax.

Computer: Deplanetizer power levels at seventy-five percent.

(After destroying the warbot reinforcements and heading through the next door.)
Elaris (communicator): Ratchet, how are you doin' in there?

Ratchet: Lots of resistance, but I'm okay.

(After swingshotting across the gap and entering Drek's office.)
Alonzo Drek (loudspeaker): So ya made it to my office. Good for you. But your little adventure will soon be over.

(Upon approaching and looking at one of the five planet models in Drek's office.)
Ratchet: These must be the planets Drek intends to destroy.

Elaris (communicator): We can't let that happen.

(After completing the Trespasser puzzle and opening the door out of Drek's office.)
Alonzo Drek (loudspeaker): After I've built us a new home world, I'll make another. And another. Eheh-heh. Can you imagine? Dozens of blarg-owned planets, forged not by nature, but by my company. We'll create an entire empire using your galaxy's wasted planets. I suppose this will leave many of your citizens homeless or, well, dead—but sacrifices must be made!

Ratchet: Man, does Drek ever stop talking?

(Upon entering the hallway outside Drek's office, a series of moving laser grids are activated.)
Alonzo Drek (loudspeaker): Ha! Our security lasers will keep you from going any further.

(Upon getting past the laser grids.)
Alonzo Drek (loudspeaker): Rgghh! Hey, security laser guy—you said that was your best work! Head to HR to pick up your final paycheck!

(After defeating some blarg enemies, flying warbots break through a large window into the next room.)
Warbot: Target acquired.

Ratchet: More warbots!

Alonzo Drek (loudspeaker): I want that lombax dead! And bring me the defect! I'll have him recycled into something useful—like a stapler, or one of those white noise machines you fall asleep to.

(After defeating all enemies in the room and entering the next hallway.)
Computer: Deplanetizer power levels at ninety-five percent.

(Upon reaching the moving laser grids in the hallway.)
Ratchet: Come on! We're almost to the bridge!

(Whilst descending on the elevator down to the tank hanger.)
Alonzo Drek (loudspeaker): He's headed for the Star Cracker terminal. Stop him at once!

Ratchet: Holy cow—that's a lotta tanks.

(After defeating the tank and blarg enemies, reinforcements and a second tank are deployed into the area.)
Blarg elite commando: There he is! Attack!

Ratchet: Blarg reinforcements!

Computer: Deplanetizer fully powered and ready to fire. Awaiting orders from Chairman Drek.

Elaris (communicator): Ratchet, you have to shut it down!

Alonzo Drek (loudspeaker): Do not let him near that Star Cracker terminal!

(After defeating the second tank and blarg reinforcements, two warbots enter the area.)
Warbot: You must be eliminated.

(After defeating enough enemies, the door to the bridge opens with more blarg reinforcements pouring out.)
Blarg trooper: Stop him!

Blarg bombthrower: Keep him away from the Starcracker chamber!

Elaris (communicator): The door to the bridge is open!

(After the third tank is deployed.)
Ratchet: Okay, enough tanks already!

(Upon defeating the third tank and all of the reinforcements.)
Elaris (communicator): Nicely done. You should be able to access the Star Cracker room and shut down the Deplanetizer.

(Upon heading down the hallway to the bridge, a movie cutscene plays.)
Computer: Deplanetizer now online.

Ratchet: (groans angrily)

Alonzo Drek: Hm-hm-hm-ha-ha-hah!

Ratchet: Aaaggh!

Alonzo Drek: Aha-ha-ha-ha! Bravo, my boy, bravo! Ha-ha! I deal with my share of morons on a daily basis, but this? This is seriously next-level. (chuckles)

Alonzo Drek: I never had a proper planet. I spent my formative years underground, where everything was dark, and wet, and hot.

Qwark: ...and I was like "Warrior? No, I said I was a worrier!" Ha-ha. I worry about everything. I— ohhhhh. Heeeeeey.

Ratchet: Qwark...?

Qwark: This is awkward... (whistles nervously)

Alonzo Drek: (chuckles) I want him to live to see his failure. Commence deplanetization!

Ratchet: No!

Cora Verolux: (gasps)

Blarg: Well, here's your ID. Welcome aboard.

Blarg: Captain?

Qwark: Huh? Oh. Yeah. Thanks...

(The movie cutscene switches to an in-game cutscene.)
Qwark: The Novalians were able to evacuate in time, but billions lost their homes.

Shiv Helix: You helped Drek destroy a planet because you were jealous of Ratchet? Ho-ho-ho-hoh! That's cold, even for me!

Qwark: Not my coolest moment, okay?! I was confused! I thought I was doing the best thing for the galaxy!

Solitary Bill: Hey—you were doin' the best thing for you!

Qwark: Nobody asked you, Solitary Bill!

Shiv Helix: Then what happened? In the holo-film Ratchet ended up driftin' in deep space for like weeks until he finally managed to assemble a gravity drive using an old ham radio and a banana.

Qwark: Never happened. In reality, he just went home.

Kyzil Plateau, Veldin (3)

(The in-game cutscene switches to another movie cutscene.)
Dallas Wannamaker (radio): In the wake of Novalis' destruction and Captain Qwark's shocking betrayal, Galactic President Phyronix has issued a galaxywide alert to all Solana citizens.

Ratchet: I'm not goin' back, Clank. This is where I belong. You were right. Fame is overrated. Especially when you're famous for causing a complete disaster.

Clank: It was not a complete disaster.

Dallas Wannamaker (radio): Authorities are calling it a "complete and utter disaster" as—

Clank: The evacuation of Novalis was successful. No one was killed or injured.

Ratchet: But those people lost their homes. And for that I have to take full responsibility.

Clank: Blaming yourself and taking responsibility are two very different things. If you truly want to be accountable, you will endeavor to make things right the next time.

Ratchet: Next time?

Clank: Drek has one more target on his list. With Captain Qwark now working for the enemy, the Rangers need you more than ever. And I would like to offer my assistance in any way possible... partner.

Ratchet: Well, partner—how about helpin' me find my protosuit?

(The movie cutscene switches to another in-game cutscene.)
Elaris (hologram): It's good to have you back, Ratchet.

Ratchet: Thanks, Elaris. What's the latest?

Elaris (hologram): I managed to decrypt Nefarious' files from Drek Industries. Bad news—his next target is Umbris.

Clank: The core of Umbris is pure tetragen. Detonating it would be disastrous!

Clank: According to the Solana celestial calendar, there is a major conjunction of every planet in the system tonight. If Umbris is destroyed, it will take the entire system with it!

Ratchet: Dr. Nefarious has just been using Drek! He wants the system destroyed under the Rangers' watch!

Elaris (hologram): I have a plan to destroy the Deplanetizer for good, but this time we'll need to take a more covert approach. I'm going to need a few things first. Head to the Gadgetron Headquarters on Kalebo three and I'll send you further instructions.

Gadgetron Headquarters, Kalebo III

(As the ship flies down to land on the planet.)
Qwark (narrating): In order to defeat Chairman Drek, the duo needed something that could only be found on Kalebo: a Gadgetron Hologuise.

Get to Gadgetron HQ (gameplay)

(Upon exiting the ship and regaining control of Ratchet.)
On-screen: Kalebo III

Clank: It appears the blarg have invaded this sector. They must be after the Gadgetron weapon stockpiles.

(Upon first moving Ratchet.)
Wendell Lumos (loudspeaker): Attention Gadgetron employees! We are currently in the midst of a major security breach at our factory. All non-essential personnel are to vacate the building immediately while we wait for the authorities to arrive.

(Upon first moving Ratchet after returning to Kalebo III.)
Ratchet: All right, Elaris says we can win a new Hologuise at the hoverboard race. Let's go sign up.

(Upon returning to the ship without having obtained the Hologuise yet.)

Clank

• We still do not have the Hologuise.
• Ratchet, we must get the Hologuise before we leave the planet. It is critical to Elaris' plan.

(Blarg forces just outside Gadgetron HQ.)
Blarg elite commando (1): All right, everyone, remember our mission! Drek wants all the weapons they're carrying in this dump! Let's move!

Blarg elite commando (2)

• Don't leave anything behind!
• Get the weapons! If anyone stands in your way, kill 'em!

Blarg commander

• Find the weapons!
• I want something really deadly!

(After defeating some of the blarg, a dropship flies in to deploy reinforcements.)
Clank: Incoming dropship!

Blarg elite commando (2): Don't let that rodent ruin our plans of procurement!

Find the Focus Lab (gameplay)

(If Ratchet enters the Gadgetron lobby without having obtained the Thrusterpack yet.)
Qwark (narrating): With the galaxy in peril, Ratchet knew what he had to do. But did he have the component critical to success?

Shiv Helix (narrating): You mean like one of those Thrusterpack things?

Qwark (narrating): Whoa, easy on the spoilers, Shiv!

(Upon attempting to use the thrusterbolt without having obtained the Thrusterpack yet.)
Qwark (narrating): Ratchet needed a Thrusterpack—which means he needed to go to Pokitaru.

(Upon entering the Gadgetron lobby and having already obtained the Thrusterpack.)
Clank: I believe those gears control the bridge.

Ratchet: Well, let's see if we can get 'em moving.

(Whilst standing in the Gadgetron lobby and having already obtained the Thrusterpack.)
Clank: Perhaps my Thrusterpack can assist us.

(After using the Thrusterpack to turn the thrusterbolt and extend the bridge.)
Clank: Good work, Ratchet. The Thrusterpack is quite a handy device.

Wendell Lumos (loudspeaker): One employee has asked if our healthcare plan covers injuries sustained during the assault. The answer is—maybe.

(Upon entering the room just past the extended bridge and being sealed inside.)
On-screen: Weapons Testing Lab A

On-screen: +

Computer: Volunteer detected in Fusion Grenade test lab. Initiating death trial.

Ratchet: "Death trial?!"

(If Ratchet is killed by the test dummies.)
Computer: Volunteer terminated. Ten percent off coupon will be mailed to next of kin.

(Upon destroying all of the test dummies.)
Computer: Test complete.

(Upon exiting the weapons testing lab.)
Wendell Lumos (loudspeaker): Send security bots to the Warmonger testing area. Our stockpile must not fall into blarg hands!

(Upon defeating all of the blarg in the area at the top of the elevator.)
Wendell Lumos (loudspeaker): Lock down everything! Activate all security protocols! Cancel Casual Friday!

(After defeating the warbots and entering the second weapons testing lab.)
On-screen: Weapons Testing Lab B

Computer: Volunteer detected in Pyrocitor room. Prepare for annihilation.

(Upon destroying all of the Pyrocitor test dummies.)
Computer: Test complete.

Clank

• We must stop the blarg from stealing weapons and gadgets.
• I do hope the blarg have not procured any of Gadgetron's more powerful weapons.

(After defeating the blarg bombthrowers in the room with the thrusterbolt.)
Ratchet: Look at those gears—we should be able to rotate this room.

(Upon jumping onto the grindrail leading towards the third weapons testing lab.)
Wendell Lumos (loudspeaker): Some bad news, I'm afraid. It looks like our attempt to call the authorities has been met with... technical difficulties. I.T. says it's some sort of jamming beacon. And since disabling it does not involve unplugging and replugging the device, they are helpless to do anything about it.

(Upon entering the third weapons testing lab.)
On-screen: Weapons Testing Lab C

Computer: Volunteer detected in Fusion Grenade test lab. Initiating death trial.

(Instead of test dummies, sheep are deployed into the room.)
Ratchet: Hm. Well, should be easy to bleat these guys.

Clank: Oh, Ratchet...

(A blarg dropship enters the area.)
Clank: Oh dear, more of them!

(Upon defeating all blarg forces in the area.)
Ratchet: Okay, that's the last of the blarg.

(Upon entering the area just outside the main headquarters building.)
On-screen: Weapons Firing Range

Computer: Volunteer detected in fluffy bunny room. Prepare to play with adorable bunny rabbits.

Ratchet: Huh. That doesn't sound so bad.

Computer: Correction. The fluffy bunny room has been relocated to sector twelve. Initiating death and dismemberment protocol.

Ratchet: Of course...

(Upon destroying all of the test dummies.)
Computer: Test complete. Thank you for participating in the Gadgetron weapon test. Your ten percent off coupon will be mailed to your home address within five to seven years.

Ratchet: Well, now that that nightmare is over—let's find that hoverboard course. We have to be close to it now.

Win the hoverboard race (Kalebo III) (gameplay)

(Upon entering the now open door into the next room.)
On-screen: Office of Wendell Lumos

(Whilst inside Wendell Lumos' office.)

Wendell Lumos

• Step into my office.
• Let's have a chat!
• Please, come closer.

(Upon approaching Wendell Lumos, a cutscene plays.)
Wendell Lumos: I don't believe it! Ratchet and Clank, here at Gadgetron! The name's Wendell Lumos—I'm the CEO of this fine company.

Ratchet: Huge fan of your weapons, Mr. Lumos. Listen, Clank and I are on a mission to save the galaxy, and we need one of your Hologuises.

Wendell Lumos: Hmm. I'm afraid we're out of that product—those darn blarg have been raiding our stockpiles. Heh-hee-hee. Minor security issue, certainly nothing to make public. We still have the prototype, but it's now a prize at our hoverboard competition.

Ratchet: Are you still accepting new competitors?

Wendell Lumos: Of course! But as you can see we're having a little bit of a flood problem. The blarg bombed our dam this morning. I don't suppose you have a Hydrodisplacer, do you?

(After using the Hydrodisplacer to drain the flood waters submerging the hoverboard race track.)
Wendell Lumos: Good news. I have just been notified that our security drones have cleared the hoverboard course. This means we will be moving forward with our competition.

(When standing close to Wendell Lumos.)
On-screen: Enter Race

(After selecting the Bronze Cup and waiting as the three second timer counts down to begin the race.)
Wendell Lumos (loudspeaker): Ready?! Set! Go!

(After starting the race.)
Wendell Lumos (loudspeaker): Don't forget, the winner gets our most valuable product—a prototype Hologuise!

(Sometimes upon falling off of the race track.)
Wendell Lumos (loudspeaker): Ouch! That's going to set Ratchet back.

(Sometimes upon using the booster.)

Wendell Lumos (loudspeaker)

• Ratchet boosts himself ahead!
• Ratchet shoots forward—this lombax is fast!

(Sometimes upon performing a trick.)

Wendell Lumos (loudspeaker)

• Ha-ha! This kid's got moxie!
• Look at that trick! Hoh! Kids these days...
• Wow! Ratchet pulls a trick, and the crowd goes crazy!

(Upon taking a shortcut after activating three arcs.)

Wendell Lumos (loudspeaker)

• Ratchet takes a shortcut!
• Looks like Ratchet's taking another route!
• Ratchet's not cheating, folks. It's called "taking advantage of the situation."

(During the second lap of a race.)

Wendell Lumos (loudspeaker)

• Ahh, what an exciting race! And remember, folks, you saw it at Gadgetron Industries!
• Hey, Gadgetron fans. Remember, you can buy stylish T-shirts and official Gadgetron corkscrews in our Gadgetron Industries gift shop.
• To all those watching at home, I'd like to remind you that Gadgetron Industries stands behind every product. If for any reason you are unsatisfied with any product, you may return it for a full refund! What? Why can't we— But that's what other companies do... Ahem. Sorry, folks, when I said "full refund" I meant to say, "free coupon for a Gadgetron bumper sticker." Ha-ha!

(If Ratchet is in first place during the final lap.)
Wendell Lumos (loudspeaker): We have a shiny new Hologuise waiting for our winner!

(If Ratchet is not in first place during the final lap.)
Wendell Lumos (loudspeaker): Ahem, Ratchet, I'd really like to give you this Hologuise, but you gotta win first.

(If Ratchet falls to last place in the race.)
Wendell Lumos (loudspeaker): Ratchet is now in last place. Hurry up, we want you to win...

(Upon reaching second place in the race.)
Wendell Lumos (loudspeaker): Ooh, Ratchet moves into second place!

(If Ratchet loses his first or second place position.)
Wendell Lumos (loudspeaker): Ratchet is now falling behind...!

(Upon reaching first place in the race.)
Wendell Lumos (loudspeaker): Ratchet takes the lead!

(If Ratchet does not come in first place.)
Wendell Lumos (loudspeaker): Huh, how about a do-over?

Wendell Lumos: Don't worry—Galactic Rangers are always welcome here at Gadgetron. Come back anytime and give the race another go.

(After winning the race and finishing in first place.)
Wendell Lumos (loudspeaker): Ratchet wins!

Wendell Lumos: You did it! Hoh! Congratulations—here's your Hologuise! Do me a favor—when you use it, post your thoughts on the social medias. The kids love their social medias! Hashtag Gadgetron!

On-screen:

1 Ratchet
2 Irwin Littleton
3 Griff Blastex
4 Chester St. Cloud
5 Victor Equinox
6 Apollo Hiks

(After obtaining the Hologuise and regaining control of Ratchet.)
Ratchet: Elaris, come in. We've got the Hologuise.

Elaris (communicator): Nice! Head back to your ship. I'm just putting the final touches on our assault plan. I'll brief you when you're there.

(Once the Silver Cup becomes available.)
Ratchet: We qualified for the next cup race!

(If Ratchet does not head back to the ship.)
Clank: We should return to the ship and contact Elaris.

(Whilst near Wendell Lumos after winning the Bronze Cup.)

Wendell Lumos

• Diane, have the marketing guys found out what a "hashtag" is? No? All right, keep me posted.
• Diane, what's the latest on the blarg thing? No, the other thing. The thing after that. Yes, that thing! Well then send some security bots out there. How much product do I have to lose before I have to start firing people?! (sighs) Not you, Diane. (sighs) Please stop crying.
• Diane, this is Lumos. Listen, push my two-thirty to four-thirty, my four-thirty to five-thirty, and cancel the meeting with Ace Hardlight altogether. Yeah, I just found two new competitors who are way more relevant.
• Hey, are you two on the social medias? I hear the kids love their social medias.

(Upon returning to Wendell Lumos again.)

Wendell Lumos

• Another race? Why, of course!
• You want to race again? Heh, why not?! We could use the publicity.
• By all means, race again. Just be sure to tell all your friends that Gadgetron makes the best products in the galaxy!

(Upon returning to the ship, a cutscene plays.)
Elaris: All right, Rangers. I think I have a plan for how to take down the Deplanetizer once and for all. By energizing the Hologuise Ratchet and Clank acquired from Gadgetron, they'll actually be able to become Captain Qwark for a short period of time. While in disguise, they should be able to get past the Deplanetizer's primary shields.

Ratchet (Qwark Hologuise): Greetings, citizen! I'm just here to use your weight room.

Blarg (communicator): You're clear, Captain.

Elaris: From there, they'll need to access the Deplanetizer's Star Cracker room. The Deplanetizer uses a gravity stabilizer to position itself over its target. By extracting the stabilizer, the Deplanetizer will drift off from its target and become vulnerable to our attack. Once Ratchet and Clank give the word, we'll activate our new Mag Boosters, flip the Deplanetizer, and save the galaxy!

Brax Lectrus: Copy that, Elaris. We're on our way.

(After leaving and returning to Kalebo III.)
Wendell Lumos (loudspeaker): Attention Gadgetron employees. Project lead Winston Snibbitch has been let go from the company. His repeated failure to use the "Reply All" button correctly made him the most irritating employee at the office. Farewell, Mr. Snibbitch! We at Gadgetron wish you luck in your next adventure.

OPTIONAL: Win the Silver Cup (Kalebo III) (gameplay)

(If Ratchet crashes into a stack of explosive crates.)

Wendell Lumos (loudspeaker)

• Ooh! That looked like it hurt.
• Ratchet looks like he's having a bit of trouble.

(After winning the Silver Cup.)
Wendell Lumos: You won! Ha-ha! Of course I knew you would. Congratulations!

(Once the Gold Cup becomes available.)
Ratchet: The galaxy might be in danger, but there's also a Gold Cup race we could do...

OPTIONAL: Win the Gold Cup (Kalebo III) (gameplay)

(After winning the Gold Cup.)
Wendell Lumos: Top prize! This is the most we can offer without getting approval from our board of directors. Congratulations!

OPTIONAL: Ride the grindrail (gameplay)

(Upon reaching the top of the elevator to the left of the main HQ entrance.)
Ratchet: Hmm, look at that rail. Wonder where it leads?

(Whilst riding the grindrail.)

Wendell Lumos (loudspeaker)

• I've just received a complaint that someone has eaten my assistant Diane's tuna fish sandwich—a sandwich that was clearly labelled and left in the employee fridge! Today's invasion does not excuse poor manners.
• I just wanted to take a moment and recognize our employee of the month. Give a good pat-on-the-back to Gelford Sprinackle! Gelford is— What's that? He did? Oh, dear. I've just been told Gelford has been taken prisoner by the blarg and likely sent to one of their work camps. So, we will have a new Employee of the Month in just a moment!

(Whilst riding the grindrail before obtaining the Hologuise.)
Elaris (communicator): Ratchet, come in. How's it going down there? Did you get the Hologuise?

Ratchet: Not yet, but we're working on it! Just had to take care of a few things first.

Elaris (communicator): Copy that. Good luck.

(Whilst riding the grindrail towards one of the four circuit breakers.)
Clank: Use your Omniwrench!

(Upon hitting and activating all four circuit breakers.)
Computer: Security barrier disabled.

(If Ratchet travels around a looping rail multiple times.)
Clank: Ratchet, I believe we are going in circles. Perhaps we should switch to a new rail?

(After reaching the end of the grindrail and entering the Map-o-Matic room.)
Computer: Welcome to the Map-o-Matic room. The Map-o-Matic was designed to help galactic explorers discover local items and points of interest.

Ratchet: Sweet. I could really use that.

(Upon entering the Map-o-Matic room on challenge mode whilst already owning the Map-o-Matic.)
Computer: Welcome to the room formerly known as the Map-o-Matic room. We have better name ideas, but everything has to go through legal, which we call the black hole of progress. Unofficially, of course, because "black hole of progress" is still unapproved by legal.

(When standing on the nearby teleporter.)
On-screen: Go to the Gadgetron Break Room

(After using the teleporter and entering the room filled with sheep.)
Computer: Warning. The Sheepinator Test Chamber has been closed due to rampant sheepinating. Enter at your own risk.

Ratchet: Whoa. Looks like the blarg tried breakin' in and got sheepinated. 'Scuse me, fellas.

(When standing on the teleporter to exit the break room.)
On-screen: Go to the Map-o-Matic room

(When standing on the taxi nearby the Map-o-Matic room.)
On-screen: Go to Gadgetron Lobby

(Whilst riding the taxi back to the Gadgetron lobby.)
Wendell Lumos (loudspeaker): How many times have I told you, the Groovitron room is not a place to hold your parties! Clear out of there this instant—there's an assault going on!

(When standing on the taxi now nearby the lobby area.)
On-screen: Go to Map Room

Deplanetizer (3)

(Movie cutscene plays.)
Alonzo Drek: So after you pick up my dry cleaning you need to polish this segway, and after that—

Qwark: Drek! I want to talk to you. You tried to kill my Rangers! You said you'd leave them alone!

Alonzo Drek: And I meant it at the time. I detest bloodshed as much as any blarg, but sometimes sacrifices are necessary for the greater good.

Qwark: I know you're working with Nefarious on this.

Alonzo Drek: Yes, isn't it wonderful? We're all part of the same dream team. (gasps) We should make T-shirts!

Qwark: You're making a big mistake! You have no idea the kinds of evil he's capable of!

Dr. Nefarious: Uh-oh. Do I feel my ears burning?

Alonzo Drek: And there's our little juggling psychopath now!

Qwark: You died in a prison escape. There were witnesses.

Dr. Nefarious: Oh, people will say and do just about anything for the right price. What was yours, Qwark? What was your price for selling out your friends? Your face on another cereal box perhaps? Blech. Why don't you run along so the Chairman and I can get back to the business at hand?

Alonzo Drek: Ahah-ha-ha! That was fun! And T-shirts would be a good idea. Good for morale. What do you think Neffie? Should we—

Alonzo Drek (sheep): (bleats)

Dr. Nefarious: Heh! Sheepinator. One of my personal favorites.

Dr. Nefarious: It's time for a change of management.

Alonzo Drek (sheep): (distressed bleating)

Dr. Nefarious: Happy trails!

Locate the Gravity Stabilizer (gameplay)

(Whilst landing the ship if having left and returned again to the Deplanetizer.)
Qwark (narrating): It had all come down to this moment. If Ratchet and Clank could extract the station's gravity stabilizer, they just might be able to save the galaxy. They might even be able to save Captain Qwark, who was clearly manipulated by the devious blarg!

(After exiting the ship and regaining control of Ratchet.)
On-screen: Deplanetizer Ship Bay

(Upon approaching the glowing panel in front of the shut door.)
On-screen: Hold : Access Hologuise From Weapon Wheel

Ratchet: Better try out the Hologuise before going any further.

(If Ratchet does not use the Hologuise.)
Clank: Perhaps we should engage the Hologuise.

(Upon standing on the glowing panel without using the Hologuise.)

Computer

• Access denied.
• Jaw line lacking.
• Upper body inadequate.
• Lack of muscles detected.

(Upon standing on the glowing panel whilst using the Hologuise and opening the door.)

Computer

• Chiseled abs detected.
• Bulging pectorals detected.
• Identification successful. Welcome, Captain.
• Hello, Captain Qwark—you look very heroic today.

(A cutscene plays demonstrating threats up ahead and the consequences of failing to use the Hologuise.)
Alonzo Drek (loudspeaker recording): Attention Deplanetizer staff—if you see any intruders, please hit the "kill intruders" button. It's the big red one that looks like all the other buttons. We have to plan better with the next Deplanetizer.

(Several alien swarmers drop from the ceiling.)
Warbot: Prepare for disintegration.

Computer: Sanitation field activated.

(Upon deactivating the Hologuise.)
On-screen: Attacking or jumping will deactivate the Hologuise!

(If a warbot guard is alerted.)

Clank

• We have been detected!
• Stop them before they activate the sanitation field.

Ratchet: They're on to us!

(If an alerted warbot hits the switch and activates the sanitation field.)
On-screen: SANITIZATION FIELD ACTIVATED!

Computer: Sanitation field activated.

(Upon reaching the warbot behind the force field whilst using the Hologuise.)
On-screen: Wave at Warbots

(Upon waving at the warbot to lower the force field.)

Ratchet (Qwark Hologuise)

• Greetings!
• Greetings, warbot!
• Hail Chairman Drek!
• Yes, it's really me.
• Please, no autographs.
• You are looking smashing today.
• That's right, it's me—Captain Qwark!
• I'm on an urgent mission from Chairman Drek!
• Does blowing up planets make anyone else hungry?
• It's so much more fun on the dark side, am I right?
• Hey, fellas. Awesome day for a planet smashing, am I right?!

Warbot

• Yo.
• Howdy.
• Greetings.
• What up, dawg?
• Hello, Captain.
• How is it going?
• What is up, Captain?
• Hello, Captain Qwark.
• Captain Qwark, identified.

(If Ratchet is killed by the sanitation field and respawns.)

Clank

• Ratchet, we must attack these warbots and keep them away from the sanitation field switch.
• The warbots are using a switch to activate the sanitation field. We must prevent them from getting to that switch.

(After destroying the warbots guarding Drek's office.)
Dallas Wannamaker (radio): And we're back, with an update on "Crisis in Solana!" According to the latest from the Galactic Rangers, famed lunatic Dr. Nefarious has been revealed as the architect behind the assault. Details are still scarce, but experts believe it may have something to do with the planetary conjunction set to take place in just a few hours. While this certainly seems like a good time to ask out that girl you've been pining over your entire life, President Phyronix has gone on record saying, "The threat is under control, and should be neutralized in a few hours." Well, President Phyronix, in case you're wrong—Stacy, I've always loved you!

(After destroying all enemies in the room across from Drek's office.)
Clank: The door is locked. We should find another way through.

(Upon entering the next room.)
Computer: Attention all personnel. At the conclusion of tonight's deplanetization, we will be holding a raffle for the Uboo Mountains. Please check with HR for tickets.

(When needing to let go of a ledge.)
On-screen: +

(After destroying all enemies in the next rooms.)
Ratchet: Warbots are down. Come on, we'd better keep moving.

(Upon collecting all twenty-eight gold bolts.)
Qwark (narrating): Ratchet collected every gold bolt, and he felt very proud of himself. As well he should.

(Upon entering the room past the magnesurfaces.)
On-screen: Deplanetizer Security Terminal

(When standing at a Trespasser terminal whilst enemies are attacking.)
On-screen: You can't use this now!

(When warbot reinforcements enter the security terminal room.)
Clank: More warbots. We must stop them from activating the sanitation field.

(If enemies reach Ratchet at the sanitation field switch.)

• Ratchet: Ah—they're behind me!
• Clank: Ratchet, behind you!

(After destroying all enemies in the room and approaching the Trespasser terminal.)
Clank: That Trespasser terminal should reveal the location of the gravity stabilizer.

(After completing the Trespasser puzzle.)
Ratchet: Got it—looks like the gravity stabilizer is inside the ship's core.

Computer: Warning. Unauthorized Hologuise use detected.

Ratchet: Uh-oh, looks like the Hologuise won't fool them anymore!

Head to the Core (gameplay)

(Whilst backtracking out of the security terminal room.)
Ratchet: Elaris! We're headed to the gravity stabilizer now!

Elaris (communicator): Be careful, guys! And good luck!

(Whilst traversing back through the previous rooms.)
Computer: Attention all personnel. Please note that we are now on a communications blackout until we have completed deplanetization. No calls, texts, or holo-messages until further notice.

(Whilst traversing through the large room.)
Ratchet: We can't give up now! Let's get 'em, pal!

(Upon turning the thrusterbolt to lower the force field and extend the bridge.)
Computer: Attention all personnel. A memorial for Victor Von Ion has been set up in the deck seven utility closet. Come and pay your respects to a fallen member of the team. Five bolts at the door.

(Upon defeating all enemies in the large room.)
Elaris (communicator): You're all clear guys! You head for the gravity stabilizer, we'll get into position out here.

Cora Verolux (communicator): Be careful in there, you two.

Brax Lectrus (communicator): Yeah, do your best not to die.

Ratchet: Thanks for the encouragement, Brax.

Disable the Gravity Stabilizer (gameplay)

(When standing on the teleporter outside the gravity stabilization chamber.)
On-screen: Teleport to Hanger

(When standing on the now active teleporter in the ship hanger.)
On-screen: Teleport to Core

(Upon reaching the gravity stabilization chamber.)
On-screen: Gravity Stabilization Chamber

(Whilst riding the floating platform down to the bottom of the chamber.)
Ratchet: Rangers, come in. We're inside the core and heading down to the gravity stabilizer's location. We should have it disabled soon.

Brax Lectrus (communicator): Copy that, Ratchet. The Mag Boosters are ready and we're in position. Just let us know when.

Ratchet: You got it.

(After solving the Trespasser puzzle and disabling the gravity stabilizer, a cutscene plays.)
Computer: Warning. Gravity stabilizer deactivated.

Elaris (communicator): Remember, that core is nuclear, so be careful.

Elaris (communicator): What was that?!

Ratchet: Uh, nothing! We're good!

(The in-game cutscene switches to a movie cutscene.)
Blarg: Ahhhhh!

Computer: Warning. Warning. Core stabilizer offline. Warning.

Blarg: (panicked yelling)

Clank: Ratchet!

Ratchet: Ah!

Qwark: Greetings, cadet.

Stop Captain Qwark (gameplay)

(Upon quitting the boss fight and standing on the teleporter now in the gravity stabilization chamber.)
On-screen: Teleport to Boss

(During the fight with Qwark.)

Qwark

• Get ready for a super-awesome hero attack!
• Get ready! Something awesome is about to happen!
• Things need to go back to the way they were! I need to be the hero again!
• I'm sorry to have to do this! Just looking out for what's best for the galaxy!
• Just think, you could have benefited from my wisdom if you hadn't been so focused on stealing my spotlight!
• I'm the hero in this galaxy! Me! You're just some small, furry, admittedly adorable lombax who's tricked the good people of Solana into thinking he's a star!

(Upon Qwark first throwing out a grenade and creating an explosive shockwave.)
Qwark: Let's make it rain!

(Upon using the Groovitron against Qwark.)

Qwark

• Oh, great. No one better be filming this.
• These moves aren't mine! I have much better moves!

(Upon using the Warmonger against Qwark.)
Qwark: No fair! No one said anything about using Warmongers!

(Upon damaging Qwark.)

Qwark

• Agh! Seriously?!
• Ugh! No fair! I wasn't ready!
• Agh! I let you have that one. For drama!
• Ugh! Okay, that one rung my bell a little.
• Hey, not the face! This is the moneymaker!
• I gotta say, I'm sorta regretting the whole train-you-as-a-Ranger thing!
• Well, you must be proud of yourself. Shooting a hero when his eyes are closed.
• That didn't hurt! In fact, I didn't even feel it! That was just me lulling you into a false sense of security!

(Upon Qwark damaging Ratchet.)

Qwark

• Ha! I totally got you with that one!
• See? That's how a real hero does battle!
• Did that one sting? It looked like it stung!
• Don't feel bad. After all, you are going up against the biggest hero in the galaxy!

(If Ratchet is damaged by Qwark and reaches low health.)
Qwark: You look a little winded. Why don't you find some of that nanotech? Wuss.

(Upon Qwark's health reaching 70%, he uses a Groovitron against Ratchet.)
Qwark: Have a Groovitron, on me!

Ratchet: Captain, you have to stop! Dr. Nefarious is trying to destroy the system!

Qwark: I'm done talking to you! You ruined my life!

(If Ratchet does not destroy Qwark's Groovitron to stop its effects.)

Ratchet

• Must... destroy... Groovitron...
• Urgh, gotta hit that Groovitron!

Clank: Ratchet, you must hit the Groovitron with your wrench!

(Upon destroying Qwark's Groovitron, he begins attacking with a Warmonger.)
Qwark: Say hello to my little friend—the Warmonger!

(Upon Qwark's health reaching 40%, he uses a second Groovitron against Ratchet.)
Ratchet: Look at yourself! You're working with the biggest villains in the galaxy!

Qwark: I'm in too deep now! I just have to destroy you and get through this so the people of Solana can love me again!

(Upon destroying Qwark's second Groovitron, he begins throwing out Agents of Doom generators.)
Qwark: Agents of Doom—attack!

(Upon Qwark's health reaching 10%, he uses a third Groovitron against Ratchet.)
Qwark: After I destroy you, I'll help everyone find new homes—better homes! And I'll be a hero again!

Ratchet: The galaxy isn't gonna reward that kind of stupidity!

Qwark: Of course they will! I'm famous!

(Upon destroying Qwark's third Groovitron and defeating him, a movie cutscene plays.)
Qwark: I'm... I'm sorry. I don't know how things got this far.

Dr. Nefarious: This is just pathetic!

Qwark: Nefarious! Give it up, it's over! As head of the Galactic Rangers, uh, he's here to place you under arrest!

Ratchet: Me?!

Qwark: Absolutely. Arrest this man!

Dr. Nefarious: Over your dead body!

Qwark: Woah!

Dr. Nefarious: (laughs maniacally)

Brax Lectrus (communicator): Mag boosters engaged!

Qwark: Woah! Agh!

Dr. Nefarious: Aggghhhhh! What's happening?!

Qwark: Ahhh! Agh! Woaaah! Ugh!

Computer: Deplanetizer now online.

Ratchet: Qwark! Don't let him turn it on!

Dr. Nefarious: Urgh! Get off me, you has-been! Argh!

Qwark: Oof!

Dr. Nefarious: (laughs maniacally)

Dr. Nefarious: You know, maybe Drek was right. I am a mad scientist.

(The movie cutscene switches to an in-game cutscene.)
Dr. Nefarious: You've ruined everything!

Computer: Gadgetron Insta-Mech activated.

Dr. Nefarious: Now, where were we? Ah, yes—annihilating you!

Defeat Dr. Nefarious (gameplay)

(Upon regaining control of Ratchet riding on a grindrail chasing Nefarious.)
Dr. Nefarious (loudspeaker): I'd love to stay and chat, but I have a dwarf star to destroy!

Ratchet: Elaris, we've got a problem! Nefarious has lost it—he's gonna destroy the star!

Elaris (communicator): Ratchet, you have to stop him! If that star explodes, Umbris will go with it!

Cora Verolux (communicator): And then us!

(Upon approaching the end of the grindrail before the second swingshot target.)
Dr. Nefarious (loudspeaker): Ya can't catch me!

(After using the second and third swingshot targets and landing on the next grindrail.)
Dr. Nefarious (loudspeaker): You should've seen the look on Drek's face. I played that fool like a Novalian piano then turned him into a sheep! (laughs maniacally)

(After using the fourth swingshot target and landing on the next grindrail.)
Dr. Nefarious (loudspeaker): Give up, lombax! Ya can't win!

(After using the fifth swingshot target and landing on the next grindrail.)
Dr. Nefarious (loudspeaker): Stop chasing me!

(Upon approaching the final grindrail in the chase segment.)
Dr. Nefarious (loudspeaker): Argh! Why won't you just die?!

(Upon reaching the supernova chamber at the end of the final grindrail, a cutscene plays.)
Dr. Nefarious (loudspeaker): What's your hurry? I thought you wanted to be a hero?! (laughs maniacally) I can end your pathetic lives and still have plenty of time to evacuate the station. I'll have a perfect view of the destruction!

(Upon regaining control of Ratchet and the final boss fight against Nefarious begins.)
On-screen: Supernova Chamber

Dr. Nefarious (loudspeaker): Beautiful, isn't it?! Artificial supernovas. I had the idea while I was rotting in jail. What better way to exact revenge on the Galactic Rangers than to destroy the entire system on their watch!

(During the fight with Nefarious.)

Dr. Nefarious (loudspeaker)

• Prepare to be annihilated!
• Oh, how I've waited for this day!
• I'm gonna really enjoy killing you!
• I've been waiting for this day for years!
• This entire system will be destroyed under your watch!
• The Galactic Rangers are about to become the laughing stock of the galaxy!
• So many people are about to die, it's not even funny! Well, maybe a little funny. (laughs maniacally)
• I wonder what they'll say about the Galactic Rangers when they let an entire system get destroyed.
• You should've seen the look on Drek's face when I turned him into a sheep. That moron actually thought he was running the show! How deliciously pathetic!

(Upon Nefarious using his sweeping laser attack the first five times.)

Dr. Nefarious (loudspeaker)

• Have you seen my proton splitter yet?! Allow me to give you a personal demonstration!
• I'm gonna carve you in two!
• Hold still! This won't hurt a bit.
• The doctor is in! Let's do some surgery. (laughs maniacally)
• Let's take a little off the top.

(Upon Nefarious using his sweeping laser attack subsequent times.)

Dr. Nefarious (loudspeaker)

• Try this!
• Time to die!
• Let's see how ya like this!
• Get ready! (laughs maniacally)

(Upon damaging Nefarious.)

Dr. Nefarious (loudspeaker)

• Okay, that was a good one.
• Urgh! That was a lucky shot!
• You moron! You think that will stop me?!
• Urgh! This changes nothing! I'm still winning!

(Upon using specific weapons against Nefarious.)

Dr. Nefarious (loudspeaker)

• A Warmonger?! You can't be serious.

Qwark: (sighs)

Ratchet: Captain?

Qwark: Hey, Ratchet, Clank! How are you guys?

Clank: We are doing well. We just came here to visit the Rangers.

Qwark: Great! Good. Fine. Yeah...

Computer: Prisoner escaping. Prisoner escaping. Prisoner escaping.

Shiv Helix: What did I tell you?! No prison can hold Shiv Helix! Ha-ha-ha!
