Voltron: The Third Dimension [1998] S1 E2 | Red Lion Breaks Loose
Voltron: The Third Dimension is an American animated television series produced by World Events Productions. It is a sequel to the 1980s animated series Voltron: Defender of the Universe and is set five years after the end of the series.[2] Neil Ross, Michael Bell, and B.J. Ward reprised their roles as Keith, Lance, and Princess Allura for the series. The show was animated by Netter Digital Entertainment, inc. and Mike Young Productions.[3] It departed from the original Voltron's animated look, as well as some character changes, such as the physical appearance of Prince Lotor (now voiced by Tim Curry, taking over the role originally voiced by Lennie Weinrib).
The story takes place in the Denubian Galaxy. Shannon Muir mapped the galaxy in the 1980s as a fan and posted it online. In 1996, World Events Productions became aware of the work and made it the official starmap for the show.[2]
With antagonist Prince Lotor's escape from prison, the heroic Voltron Force re-assemble against him, but must contend simultaneously with the various monsters and warships sent by Lotor (at times, captained by him) and with opposition on their own side, represented by the artificial intelligence "Amalgamus", a sophisticated computer who objects periodically to the Voltron Force's methods.

TVTranscript
00:00From days of long ago, from uncharted regions of the universe, comes a legend.
00:08The legend of Voltron, a mighty robot, loved by good and feared by evil.
00:15As Voltron's legend grew, peace settled across the galaxy.
00:20But then the evil Prince Lotor escaped from his prison in deep space.
00:25He formed a secret alliance with Hagar, mistress of dark magic,
00:30and together they summoned awesome forces of fear and destruction,
00:35threatening the universe with new, horrible menaces.
00:39Voltron was needed once again.
00:42Now comes the story of a super force of space explorers,
00:46specially trained and sent by the highest echelon of the galaxy alliance,
00:51to bring back Voltron.
00:55This is Voltron, the Third Dimension.
01:00At Galaxy Garrison, it's a time for action.
01:04I just got official confirmation from Bastille 12.
01:07Lotor has escaped.
01:10As soon as Hunk and Pitch get here, we're taking off to track him down.
01:13Good. Lotor is extremely dangerous.
01:16No one knows that better than you and I, eh, Keef?
01:20Stop! I don't want any robot lions deployed.
01:24It would terrify the whole star system.
01:27My circuits are connected to the leaders of all 900 planets in the alliance.
01:32My decisions reflect their amalgamated views.
01:35And right now, the amalgam is no robot lions.
01:40Let me tell you something, you glorified calculator.
01:43We were fighting Lotor before you were invented.
01:46That may be, but until the amalgam has investigated the matter,
01:50there will be no robot lions.
01:54He's making a terrible mistake, Keef.
01:57I know it, Princess. But we have no choice.
02:00We have to follow his orders.
02:02And that goes for you too, Lance.
02:05Lance? Lance! No!
02:10He's going for Red Lion. Against orders!
02:21There he is!
02:27Lance, this is Keef transmitting from the castle of lions.
02:31Do you copy? You've been ordered to return to base.
02:35Lance? I know you can hear me.
02:37This is no joke, Lance. Turn that lion around.
02:41Sorry, Keef, but me and my kitty cat have a date with destiny.
02:45Come on, Keef. Let's go.
02:48You must remember, this is all very personal for Lance.
02:52His own village was destroyed by Lotor and Zarkon.
02:59Sorry to drop in like this.
03:02Zarkon?
03:04Yes. I know it's still hard for you to think of me as one of the good guys.
03:09But I'm not a bad guy.
03:11I'm a good guy.
03:13I know it's still hard for you to think of me as one of the good guys.
03:17But I came to bring you some information about Lotor.
03:21His CD has a top-secret file on my wayward son.
03:25Now that he's escaped from prison,
03:27I'm sure he'll try to complete his new generation of Doom weapons.
03:31These are the power components, pure quartz.
03:34Ionized topaz, moonstone, and condensed lazon.
03:37We know all about it, Zarkon.
03:40Commander Keef, have you contacted your pilot?
03:44We've been trying, sir.
03:46I ordered you to keep those lions grounded.
03:49They're going to cause a panic.
03:51Take it easy, Amalgamus.
03:53These kids are doing the best they can.
03:56Zarkon, what are you doing there?
03:59The Crimson Quadrant's being raided by that pirate.
04:03As Minister of Peace, I need you here at Galaxy Garrison.
04:08Okay, I'll be right there.
04:10Sorry, kid, gotta fly.
04:13I never thought I'd see Zarkon at the Castle of Mines.
04:17And Minister of Peace, no less.
04:19Life brings many unexpected developments.
04:22They say the only thing constant is change.
04:26We're going to need all new flight data to find those pirates.
04:29I could use a little pit stop anyway.
04:31What do you say we pull into a station, eh, kitty cat?
04:38A cat always lands on its feet.
04:42Knowledge is power.
04:44You can't fly right if you don't have the latest flight info.
04:47Welcome to Station N-14.
04:50All updated flight information is provided by the Galaxy Alliance.
04:54Would you like your data low-density, high-density, or premium?
04:58Hook me up with the good stuff.
05:00Would you like your data low-density, high-density, or premium?
05:03Hook me up with the good stuff.
05:09Drink up, big kitty. This'll keep us right on course.
05:12And it'll tell us if there are any bad guys in the area.
05:26Care to join me in some target practice, Lafitte?
05:29Why, that sounds delightful, Cui Cui.
05:35We wouldn't want this station to warn people about pirates, would we?
05:45I have to get back into Red Lion.
05:54Gotta get out of here while there's still a hair to get out of.
05:57Come on, baby. Power up.
06:05Nice barbecue, eh, Cui Cui?
06:07Yeah. Now why don't we roast the whole planet?
06:28And that completes our six o'clock news.
06:31Yes. Tune in tomorrow when Cui Cui and Lafitte blow up some more stuff.
06:51I'll tell you this, Lafitte. Nothing could survive down there.
06:56Wrong-o.
07:04Here's a clue for you guys. Red Lion loves fire.
07:08The hotter it gets, the better she likes it. Right, kitty cat?
07:13Give it a taste of lion power.
07:15And tail ash!
07:17Tail ash!
07:25What is that thing?
07:29It's a lion. I mean, it's a spaceship. I mean, I don't know. Just shoot it!
07:36Dodge!
07:38And ram it!
07:44Lion core attack!
07:48Lion core attack!
07:59It wrecked the other two ships, and now it's coming at their eyes!
08:03Turn this thing around! Hurry! It's one on our tail!
08:07Let's play a little cat and mouse. Uh, make that cat skull ship.
08:13Time for some munch and crunch!
08:21Hey guys, feeling a little charged up?
08:24You... you better quit biting us!
08:28Yeah, or we'll tell Commander Doom.
08:33Whoa, you got me shaking in my jetpack. And I just got a great idea.
08:41Computer, release homing device.
08:49Uh, hey guys, I didn't realize I was dealing with such bad hombres.
08:53In fact, you got me so scared, I'm gonna run away.
08:57Oh, please don't tell Commander Doom.
09:03Wow, we scared him off.
09:07Yeah, must be your naturally repulsive personality.
09:11Me? What about you, Skag Breath?
09:15Couple of real Einsteins, eh, Kitty?
09:18All we have to do is follow that homing device, and it leads us right to Papa.
09:30What are you doing down here, Princess?
09:32I'm looking for guidance and knowledge.
09:34I've learned so much about the lions here in the ancient archives.
09:38In these past few years, I've realized that the lions are more than we ever dreamed of, Keith.
09:45You see, the power of the lions isn't random. It comes from the primal elements.
09:51When Blue Lion is waiting in the bottom of the moat, it isn't just resting.
09:55It's absorbing the power of the water.
09:59Yellow Lion draws in the power of stone, sand, and earth.
10:05Green Lion's power is life. It comes from the living forest where real lions once roamed.
10:11Black Lion's power comes from the air and the sky and the limitless space beyond.
10:16And when Red Lion is in the volcano, it absorbs the power of fire and boiling lava.
10:23I'm not sure yet how they draw the power in, but...
10:26Red Lion! Look at it!
10:29Those glyphs are connected to the real lions. But why would it glow like that?
10:33Keith, I think Red Lion is in trouble. I can feel it.
10:38If something happens to Lance, I'll never forgive myself. I'm going after him.
10:43There it is. The whole pirate fleet.
10:47Full power!
10:49Full power!
10:54Pirate log. Status report. The Alliance freighter has been targeted and destroyed.
11:00Ionized topaz download is now complete. Detaching fuel tubes.
11:05Command ship has been encased in stone to avoid identification.
11:11Commander Doom, request permission to scan in, sir.
11:16What happened to the other scuttle ships?
11:19They got eaten by a... a... a carrot.
11:26Sorry about losing the other ships, sir.
11:30Yeah, but, uh, we can explain. Basically, it was, uh, uh...
11:35Your fault!
11:36Well, it was your fault!
11:38There's no doubt about it!
11:39Yeah, right. Yeah, right.
11:41It was your fault! Yes, it was! It was your fault!
11:45It's that lion again!
11:50He's blasting the cover of my ship!
11:53Scuttle ships, return fire!
12:01All right, kitty cat. It's been a long time since we've seen real action.
12:06Let's show him what we can do.
12:16Whoa!
12:26Now, lion claw!
12:32Inferno!
12:43Tail end!
12:46Yeah, let's find out what's underneath all this rock.
12:53Well, well, what have we here?
12:56Very tricky, guys.
12:58Now I think it's time I had a little chat with your head, honcho.
13:02You mean Commander Doom?
13:04Yeah, right, Commander Doom.
13:07You didn't even tell your own men who you are, lotor!
13:11You, my puny friend, are a day late and four lions short.
13:16While you were wrecking those worthless old junk heaps,
13:19I was bringing my new Doom weapons online.
13:23They're fueled by a mix of...
13:25Moonstone, ionized topaz, quartz, and condensed laser.
13:29I know the whole deal, lotor.
13:32But a system is only as good as the guy running it,
13:35which in your case means it stinks.
13:38We'll see about that, lion boy.
13:42Bring up the new Doom weapons and blast him!
13:53That's right, kitten, shake it off.
13:55Now let's try some spinning laser discs.
13:58Doom shield on!
14:04Now I want that cat.
14:09You're falling down on the jaw, lads!
14:15They've got us trapped!
14:18Of course, I could destroy you now,
14:21but I'd rather keep you...
14:24for spare parts!
14:29Bye-bye, lion boy.
14:32Can't get free, can't shoot, can't call for help!
14:35Can't get free, can't shoot, can't call for help!
14:38We're all for three, kitty cat.
14:48New data input indicates that Red Lion was spotted in Sector Q.
14:52Then that's where we're going.
14:54Come on, team, time to fly those lions.
14:57Wait, stop! I told you the lions are grounded.
15:00You are disobeying direct orders!
15:03That's better than disobeying our hearts!
15:06Begin lion launch sequence, now!
15:34Whoa!
15:50All right, insert lion keys!
16:03All right!
16:19This is Black Lion.
16:21To Blue Lion, Green Lion, and Yellow Lion,
16:24form up and move out!
16:28All right, team, destination Sector Q.
16:31Mission, find Red Lion.
16:34Let's do it!
16:37Pirate log.
16:39Our Doom weapons have captured Red Lion.
16:42Electronet secure.
16:44To market, to market, to buy a fat lion!
16:50Who dares fire on my command ship?
16:55Robot lions.
16:59Split up! We gotta find Lance.
17:04I think I see him over there in that Electronet.
17:07Lance, are you all right?
17:09I've been better.
17:11Sorry I dragged you into this.
17:13You love to drag us into tight spots,
17:16but we'll talk about that later.
17:18Hunk, Pidge, cut him loose.
17:20Right!
17:22Just like old times, huh, Pidge?
17:24Yeah, only better.
17:26Lion claws!
17:40Thanks, guys. I'm back in business.
17:43All right, team, now let's deal with public enemy numero uno.
17:47Dive bomb attack!
17:53They're gonna blast us to shreds!
17:57Don't you think I anticipated this?
18:00Set Doom protocol one,
18:03and release my Robeast.
18:06For four long years, this robot held me in prison.
18:10Now I'll use it to put Fultron in prison.
18:14But first, a slight modification.
18:17Doom weapons.
18:20Doom weapons.
18:25It's getting huge. He's turning it into a Robeast.
18:28I don't call my new ship the Revenge for nothing.
18:34I'll take on that Robeast.
18:38Let me have a shot at him with a little firepower.
18:44You recognize that thing, Princess?
18:47Yes, it's Robot Maximus, the security robot from Lotor's jail cell.
18:51That's right, Princess.
18:53Only now it's 50 times bigger and a thousand times deadlier.
19:00Of course, you could just give in now
19:03and agree to be my bride, Allura.
19:06That does it. Form Fultron.
19:10Let's go, Fultron Force!
19:18FULTRON FORCE
19:35Form feet and legs.
19:39Form arms and torso.
19:45And I'll form the head.
19:52Lion head attack.
19:59A ball of chain.
20:02It's a trap.
20:05A chain.
20:08It must think we're an escaped prisoner. Look out.
20:14Can't get these chains loose. It's got us.
20:21Uh-oh. Watch out for those phasers.
20:24They're for tranquilizing prisoners.
20:29I'm losing energy.
20:32Concentrate.
20:39I've always liked heavy metal. Now I'll cage him.
20:45The way they caged me.
20:48I can't fight it. My systems are going down.
20:52Mine, too. The infra-cells are almost dead. I can't charge them up.
21:03Listen to me, boys.
21:06Fultron is more than a machine.
21:09His spirit is fueled by our spirit.
21:12We can overcome this. Feel the spirit of the Lion.
21:18All right, team. Prepare Lion kick.
21:21Ready.
21:24Yellow Lion's ready. Sun's green. Red's all set.
21:27Blue Lion ready.
21:30All right.
21:35Watch those grenades.
21:38Flip and form Blazing Sword.
21:46All right, team. Backhand Samurai Slash.
21:54Walk to the Dream Dimension quickly.
21:57We annihilated that road beast. But it looks like Lotor got away.
22:01Don't worry. Now that the Fultron force is back in action,
22:04we'll track Lotor down to the end of the galaxy.
22:07You with me, guys?
22:13Yes, at long last, Fultron was back.
22:17But so was Lotor, more powerful than ever.
22:21Fly on, great robot. Your destiny lies among the stars.
22:26And in the hearts of all who call out the mighty name of Fultron.
