Lyrics

*A low, warbling sound.*

[Chip]

Cap, the Dark Energy is getting closer.

[Cap]

We have to rebalance it before it hits Earth.

[Chip]

Any luck on the signal?

[Cap]

Checking again! Yes, now listen.

*Signal scanning. Low, warbling sound continues with static and voices.*

[Radio Broadcast Cap]

…Comet… radio satellite… fix.

[Radio Broadcast Chip]

…satellite…so big!

[Chip]

Doesn’t that sound like….?

[Radio Broadcast Cap]

Let’s see…still broken…

[Radio Broadcast Chip]

…Listening… I want to… I’ll go first!

[Cap]

No way… It’s not possible…

[Radio Broadcast Cap]

No!

[Radio Broadcast Chip]

Why?

[Radio Broadcast Cap]

Ugh, Chip… You always get to try first.

[Cap]

It’s…. us.

[Chip]

I do not! Come on, Cap. You never let me have any fun!

[Radio Broadcast Cap]

I do, too! You just never listen!

[Radio Broadcast Chip]

Well, you're not the boss!

[Radio Broadcast Cap]

Why don't you go power down?

[Radio Broadcast Chip]

Hey, you can’t say that to robots!

[Radio Broadcast Cap]

Oh, Chip— oh no— well, it looks like the satellite is working.

[Radio Broadcast Chip]

Wait… Did we just broadcast that whole fight?

[Radio Broadcast Cap]

Yup, out into the whole universe (Universe, universe).

[Cap]

Chip… This is us, from our last mission to fix this satellite. It’s our old radio broadcast.

[Chip]

And it’s been bouncing around space this whole time? But… that was so long ago.

[Cap]

I guess even words from a long time ago can still affect us today. If we don’t listen and talk them out, they can create Dark Energy later.

[Chip]

Hold on, so we created this big wave of Dark Energy? But we’re Comet Cadets! We’re supposed to rebalance Dark Energy and protect the universe!

[Cap]

I know. But sometimes we make mistakes. There has to be a way we can stop it from spreading any farther now.

[Chip]

So what do we do?

[Cap]

Hmm... Let’s take our time and think.

*A low, warbling sound continues.*
