ENTER THE KIDS
Ray, Ethan, Amy, and Lucy arrived at the base to find
Megatron holding a clipboard.
That was immediately alarming.
Amy crossed her arms.
“Why do you look like a middle manager?”
Megatron spoke gravely.
“We are… financially compromised.”
Ray blinked.
“…You’re broke?”
Soundwave played a sad trombone.
Ethan squinted.
“How? You’re giant robots.”
Lucy leaned closer to the spreadsheet.
“These expenses are… real.”
Amy nodded.
“You need help.”
Starscream gasped.
“They didn’t laugh!”
THE KIDS TAKE OVER FINANCE
Amy pulled out a notebook.
“First rule,” she said,
“no unnecessary spending.”
Megatron quietly hid a receipt for a lava fountain.
Ray’s Idea
“Merch.”
Starscream’s eyes lit up.
“YES.”
Ray continued.
“But funny merch.”
They designed:
- ‘I
Saved a Cat at 3AM’ shirts
- ‘Roasted
by Megatron’ mugs
- Stickers
of Starscream failing at tasks
Starscream protested.
Sales were immediate.
Ethan’s Idea
“You guys already roast people. Monetize it.”
Megatron listened carefully.
Thus began:
‘Megatron’s Motivational Insults’
“Your posture is weak,” Megatron told a tourist,
“but your spirit shows promise.”
Five dollars per insult.
Tips included.
