You poor, pathetic metal stooge. Your weaponry can do no more than disturb the dust that settles upon me. Your kind could never understand, P-9. You have not the slightest inkling of free will. But my will is free! And I am invincible... unlike the rest of you!

Synopsis[]
Bent on the destruction of Magnus, Talpa wreaks havoc upon North Am! But the Robot Fighter is in no shape to face Talpa, having just returned from the Unity Conflict. In response to Talpa's demands that Magnus be turned over to him, Leeja tells the robot to return to San Gabriel. Now recuperated, Magnus fights Talpa, alternately exposing the robot to extreme heat and cold, making it brittle enough to smash![1]

- You poor, pathetic metal stooge. Your weaponry can do no more than disturb the dust that settles upon me. Your kind could never understand, P-9. You have not the slightest inkling of free will. But my will is free! And I am invincible... unlike the rest of you!
- -- Talpa
- Hacks my core, it does! Magnus is one of us now!
- -- Slagger
- You assumed you had no weak points, Talpa. How does it feel to be wrong?
- -- Magnus
- I didn't do this to save North Am. I did it to stop Talpa. Left unopposed, he'd have gone on to kill or enslave every last human being. You know that, Leeja -- but I'm not sure the High Council does. They have too much in common with Talpa. The first time I didn't jump through their hoop, they called me a traitor! Well, I won't be North Am's pet hero any more!
- -- Magnus
