Jonny Quest - Time is Running Out/Transcript

This is a transcript for the old TV promo Jonny Quest - Time is Running Out.

Act 1
The promo begins with its title as a board game cover and starts with Jonny, Hadji, Bandit, and Race on the start of a game board. Bandit growls as two dice roll down like boulders.

Jonny Quest: What is it, Bandit?

Bandit: (barks)

Jonny Quest: Come on, let's go!

As they take different paths, an icon with Anubis' face with the title "Danger next 1000 spaces" is shown in a canyon. Jonny and Hadji arrive on hovering vehicles.

Jonny Quest: Hey, Hadj, look over there.

Hadji: That looks like fun.

Two men on hovercrafts arrive to chase them.

Jonny Quest: What's that?!

The robot spy is in the way, growling, but they managed to pass it. The boys and villains pass through a jungle with crocodiles, then enter a desert with camels.

Hadji: Jonny, look!

They see the mummified Anubis in their path.

Jonny Quest: Go, Hadji, go!

As they evade him, one man crashes into Anubis and his partner crashes into a rock.

Jonny Quest: Oh, boy, what a ride!

Hadji: Huh?

Both have fallen into a trapdoor labeled "Go To End!"

Act 2
Bandit enters a haunted castle as the mirror door flips in. Inside, he finds mirrors showing Dietrich Sorenson as a gargoyle, menacing him. Bandit looks around in fear and confusion. He barks at one reflection, which cracks the mirror. He barks three more times, breaking two more mirrors and catches the real Dietrich, who cowers in anger and reveals an exit for Bandit. As the dog leaves, he falls through a trapdoor that says "Short Cut!"

Act 3
Elsewhere, an icon with the head of a lizard man and yeti imposter is seen with the label "Double Trouble" as Race passes a slit hole.

Race Bannon: Here they come!

As the lizard men show up, in slow-motion, Race punches two of them as the yeti imposters show up.

Race Bannon: One goes right in both sides, and we're in trouble.

As the yeti imposters approach, Race knocks the first one as they fall together like dominoes. At the same time, an enormous octopus is closing in on someone.

Race Bannon: Let's not cheering too soon.

As he leaves, the octopus closes in on Dr. Quest in a submarine. The team members arrive to save him as Race proceeds to punch the hourglass.

Hadji: Look, Jonny!

Jonny Quest: What's that?!

After destroying the hourglass, the octopus stops in its place, saving Quest.

Hadji: Good job, Race.

The short ends back with the cover.

Narrator/Mike Road: Jonny Quest.
