• Powerglide : What in the heck? Autobot Headquarters, this is Powerglide! The Decepticons are attacking Hybrid Technologies Corporation! They must be after some secret plans, or maybe some new fuel they've invented, or maybe they're gonna kidnap all the company's top scientists, or... huh? They're after a girl! It's hero time!

• Astoria Carton-Ritz : Wow. That was intense. Who... are you?

  Powerglide : Powerglide's the name.

  Astoria Carton-Ritz : Well, whoever you are, I think you're completely the greatest.

• Powerglide : Astoria, we've got to get you outta here! It's dangerous!

  Astoria Carton-Ritz : What are you talking about? We're on a merry-go-round, for cryin' out loud!

• Powerglide : You're a real pain in the afterburners, you know that?

  Astoria Carton-Ritz : You know, you don't have to be Mr. Macho all the time, okay? Just let me help! You're like a big baby sometimes. I mean, like, I care about you. You saved my life.

  Powerglide : [embarassed]  Oh, can the mush.

  Sparkplug Witwicky : Who would've believed it? Powerglide shot down by Cupid!

  [Ironhide and Ratchet guffaw] 

  Powerglide : All right, which one o' you wants to be the first to get his circuits punched out?

  [Powerglide enters Sparkplug's garage, and once alone, open his chest cover to reveal circuitry flickering in the shape of a heart] 

• Powerglide : So what were the Decepticons after, anyway?

  Astoria Carton-Ritz : Oh, just that necklace my father gave me.

  Powerglide : You never make any sense, you know that?
