Line #3 Awesome/ShortCircuit


1	!!Short Circuit:
2	* Johnny Five defeating the three SAINT prototypes in one-on-one (pacifistic) combat, then ''reprogramming them''... into Film/TheThreeStooges.
3	* Frank threatens to turn Number Five over to NOVA. Johnny Five retaliates by ''completely dismantling his car when he's not looking.'' Also Stephanie’s “WAY TO GO NUMBER 5!!”, since Frank used her money to buy the car.
4	* As Frank takes potshots at Number Five, who deflectes each one with extreme accuracy before saying this after the second shot:
5	-->'''Number Five: ''(while speaking like Creator/JohnWayne):'' ''' Say, pilgram, that like to parted my hair! If you want to play rough, I can sure oblige ya!
6	-->'''Frank squeezes off a couple of more rounds.)'''
7	-->'''Frank ''(stunned):'' ''' How can he do that?! ''(Fires off one more shot.)''
8	-->'''Numbr Five ''(still using John Wayne's voice):'' ''' WHA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA!
9	** TheReasonYouSuckSpeech that Number Five gives to Frank just '''''NAILS IT.'''''
10	-->''(Number Five, picking up a washer that came from Frank's dismantled car off the ground, starts flipping it like a coin in the same style of a gangster from the Roaring Twenties '''AND''' sounding like Creator/HumphreyBogart, very coldly):'' Franky... you broke the unwritten law: '''YOU RATTED ON YOUR FRIENDS.''' When you do that, Franky, your enemies don't respect you. You got no friends no more. '''YOU'VE GOT ''NOBODY,'' FRANKY.'''
11	* Johnny's RedEyesTakeWarning when Stephanie is threatened by Frank, who's holding the drive shaft from his car that Johnny just dismantled. He then uses his laser to slice the drive shaft apart into four pieces (piece-by-piece at that), followed by zapping the brim of the guy's hat, the heels of his boots, and the belt buckle on his pants, with Frank's pants falling down! Much to Stephanie's utter amusement. The result is complete humiliation, with the worst damage to the guy being his feet a little crispy, and yet still oh-so-badass.
12	-->'''Number 5 ''(angrily):'' ''' '''NO!''' Not disassemble Stephanie!
13	** As a bonus, each of #5's laser blasts is accompanied by an exaggerated martial-arts yell. Just because he's a pacifist doesn't mean J-Five can't have a little ''fun.''
14	* Johnny rushing into the bar to save Stephanie from the [=NOVA=] agents.
15	* It's quiet bad-assery, but still bad-assery. Johnny looks his creator in the eye, and demonstrates that he might be the most moral guy in the script.
16	-->'''Crosby''': Of course ''I'' know it's wrong to kill, but who told you?
17	-->'''Number 5''': ''I'' told me.
18	** Doubles as a SugarWiki/{{Heartwarming Moment\|s}}.
19	* Johnny Five's reaction to having a gun pulled on him:
20	-->'''Johnny Five:''' ''(snatches the pistol of the gunman's hand and examines it)'' Colt .45. Semi-automatic. ''(casually crushes the gun)'' [[DullSurprise Play-Doh]].
21	* Howard firing Skroeder at the end of the film.
22	* Johnny 5 managing to '''[[FakingTheDead fake his death]]''' at the end.
23
24	!!Short Circuit 2:
25	* Johnny Five's RoaringRampageOfRevenge after Oscar and his gang leave him for dead. Basically everything starting from his [[BerserkButton infuriating realization]] that the bad guys simply locked Ben and Fred in a freezer but tried to smash him to bits because he's just a machine. From there, Johnny is 100% boots-to-asses.
26	-->'''Johnny:''' You will not get away! I am '''really pissed off!!'''
27	** Special mention for playing Bonnie Tyler's "Music/HoldingOutForAHero" as SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic.
28	** The LockAndLoadMontage beforehand, in and of itself, is pretty badass!
29	-->'''Johnny:''' ''Suuuuure.'' Kidnap the humans, '''[[BerserkButton DESTROY]] {{T\|hisIsUnforgivable}}HE [[LetsGetDangerous MACHINE.]]'''
30	** And the piece de resistance? At the climax, Johnny Five swings across to capture Oscar [[MeaningfulEcho whilst letting out a Tarzan war cry]]!
31	* Johnny's triumphant reprise of:
32	-->"Los Locos kick your ass!"
33	-->"Los Locos kick your face!"
34	-->"[[BadassBoast Los Locos kick your balls into outer SPAAAAAACE!]]"
35	-->'''''[[FullNameUltimatum "NUMBER JOHNNY FIVE!]]"'''''
36	-->"[[OhCrap Uh-oh...]]"
37	* Ben and Fred have the idea to free themselves from the freezer by sending Sandy ''music'' through the phone. With a calculator. And Sandy actually figures out the clues (with the help of a pretty gung-ho cab driver) and rescues them!
38	** The awesomeness of this, especially for the production team, is incalculable. They managed three things about this.
39	*** Firstly, the entire medley is genuinely done using short-press tones, rather than some 'close enough' tones. In the modern day, this would be easy, and there's probably programmes that could replicate the entire thing. Not when they made this film.
40	*** Secondly, at least for 'He-l-p Me Rho-n-da, He-l-p He-l-p Me Rho-n-da,', they speak OUT LOUD the exact series of key tones.
41	*** Finally, all the songs do a very sloppy, but more than acceptable, route around New York that still works!
