Ratchet & Clank: All 4 One

Ratchet & Clank: All 4 One is a 2011 cooperative multiplayer game by Insomniac Games and a spin-off of Ratchet & Clank.

• This infernal contraption needs a power source.
• Someone want to get Fatty McMouth breather an oxygen mask? I'm not going to carry him if he passes out!
• [about Dr. Croid's Guardian Robots] I gotta get me some of these! Can you imagine me rolling up to the Planetary Defence Center with ten or twelve of these things? [Laughs] I'd be unstoppable!

• [Deployed by Nefarious] Mr. Zurkon will enjoy protecting evil robot!
• [Deployed by Qwark] Mr. Zurkon did not vote for you.
• [Deployed by Clank] Do not fear, measly robot, Mr. Zurkon is here to protect you.
• [Deployed by Ratchet] Do not fear, furball, Mr. Zurkon will protect you.
• [If more than one Mr. Zurkon is out] Mr. Zurkon doesn't like other Mr. Zurkon stealing his kill.

Kip Darling: The depravity of this creature knows no bounds, folks. He just destroyed Rusty Pete's Healthy Hamburger Shack! His wheat grass and tree bark burger was a favorite of hipsters everywhere!

Dr. Nefarious: [After the Z'Grute's defeat] Well, it's been a lot of fun catching up, but I gotta bounce– [tries to leave; bumps into Qwark]

Qwark: [Removing his tie] Not so fast, Nefarious! [Starts poking at Nefarious' face repeatedly and walking forward] You've done some underhanded things in your time, but this beats all! [The repeated poking causes Nefarious to fall over] I'm starting to think there may not even be an Inter-Galactic Tool of Justice Award!

Ratchet: Ladies and gentlemen… your president.

Tharpod Chief: We call it: Ephemeris, the Creature Collector. Oh, it's been around for over a hundred years. Snatching the universe's most dangerous beasts and bringing them here, to our planet.

Clank: Who is in control of the machine?

Tharpod Chief: Hmm... No one knows. But that tyrant you saw in our village was its emesisary, Commander Spog. He has been protecting Ephemeris for years, but now you're here–

Ratchet: (interrupting him) No look, I'm just trying to find my way home.

Susie: (Upset) But... You're Ratchet. You saved the whole universe, you're not supposed to... (staring to sneezing) ACHHOO!! Ohh... I sneezed in my mask.

Ratchet: (To Susie) Look kid, I'd love to help you and your dad, but my pal and I... We're retired. (referring to himself and Clank) As soon as we're off the planet, we'll notify the Defense Force.

Tharpod Chief: (To Ratchet, taking his arm to talk to the lombax quietly) Susie is not my daughter. I'm afraid her parents were lost during the Ephemeris raid on Totem Fi. Like many children here, she is an orphan. (Ratchet is quiet for a few seconds, taking what the chief had said into thought)

Ratchet: (Deciding to help in stopping Ephemeris) Alright, so where do we find this Commander Spog? (His words results in a positive reaction from Susie)

(Cuts to the group in front of a dark forest)

Qwark: Yeah, I'm not so big on the whole haunted forest thing.

Ratchet: Hey that's cool, I just thought you might wanna rise your approaval rating by saving a few thousand voters. I guess parades and groupies (Qwark is counting his fingers during this point) just aren't everyone's thing. (Ratchet starts to work into the forest with Clank)

Qwark: Wait a minute, both of those are my thing! Wait up! (Follows Ratchet & Clank)

(Nefarious glances at the Tharpod Chief and Susie with the bird-like creature staring at him)

Dr. Nefarious: (To the other three who have gotten ahead) Wait for me!

Clank: [to Commander Spog who has been damaged] Your voice modulator is damaged commander, but if you tell us how to defeat Ephemeris, I believe I know someone who can fix you.

Qwark: Well I don't like to brag, but I did modify my crochitizer with a special vibrating function that I call "The Happy Platypus". [Clank just stares at him while Ratchet and Nefarious seem to contemplate the idea]

Clank: Eh... I beg your pardon, Qwark, but I was referring to him. [points to Nefarious]

Nefarious: Me!? Are you insane?!

Clank: If I may, [Nefarious turns away, crossing his arms] being evil has not worked out well for you these last few years, perhaps using your intelligence for good, will yield better results.

Nefarious: [Turns around, irritated] Alright! [Walking over to Spog] Fine! [While saying the remaining dialogue, Nefarious points to the other three; one by one] But speak of this to no one! [waving his arm like a conductor in an orchestra, Dr. Nefarious begins to repair Spog]

[After Nefarious has repaired Commander Spog]

Qwark: You did the right thing, doctor!

Nefarious: [To Qwark] GET BENT!

Qwark: You know, I'm actually starting to like it here. Sure, it's a dangerous planet riddled with murderous robots and exotic predators... But take away all that and what do you have? A presidential retreat/waterpark!

Nefarious: [to Ratchet] Can I kill him now?

Ratchet: No.

Nefarious: [Slightly raised tone] I can make it look like an accident!

Ratchet: [interested] How?

Clank: Ratchet!

Ratchet: All right. No.

[Ratchet and Clank talk about Aphelion's destruction at the hands of the Light Eating Z'Grute]

Ratchet: If only there was something I could do...

Clank: I will miss Aphelion too, Ratchet, but like General Azimuth failed to realize until it was too late, you cannot change the past...

[Ratchet, Clank, Qwark and Nefarious finally find Dr. Croid]

Ratchet: Dr. Croid?

Dr. Croid: A Lombax! [Grabs Ratchet's face and studies his eye] What a remarkable specimen! And such a shiny coat! You three brought him to the right place. [Hands Qwark a card]

Qwark: [Reads] "Dr. Fumpus Croid. Astrophysicist, paradoxologist, and... Lombax whisperer"?

Ratchet: Dr. Croid?

Dr. Croid: Aha?

Ratchet: I don't need a translator.

Dr. Croid: I see.

Ratchet: We're here because someone is using your work-

Dr. Croid: Yes?

Ratchet: -To bring monsters to Magnus and we need your help to stop him.

Dr. Croid: Aha! He's saying he's hungry! [Grabs a bag of treats]

Ratchet: Oh, for the love of… [Dr. Croid jams a treat into Ratchet's mouth and pats him on the head]

Qwark: Listen Doctor, I completely respect the fact that you're... insane. But I'm trying to boost my approval rating so what's say we dial down the crazy and tell us how to stop Nevo. [Dr. Croid just keeps staring at Qwark in a creepy way]

Ratchet: [Talks slowly] Dr. Croid, we're going to stop Nevo from huring anyone else but we need your help, do you understand what I'm saying? [Hands Dr. Croid a picture of him and Nevo]

Dr. Croid: [Stares at it thoughtfully, then looks up] I think he needs to poo! I'll go get a baggy. [Ratchet, Clank and Nefarious keep staring in disbelief and disgust]

Qwark: Hey doc, make it two. 'Been a loooong trip.

[Ratchet, Clank, Qwark and Nefarious discover that their only means of transportation out of an ice field is destroyed]

Ratchet: [in dismay] Aw no no no! Come on!

Qwark: [Falls down, Nefarious grabs him; dramatically] This is it, the end of President Captain Qwark. [Ratchet shakes his head] I can feel Death's icy grip! Nefarious, I'm sorry I pushed you around in High School. You're smart and I'm such a–

Dr. Nefarious: Moron?

Qwark: I was gonna say "Adonis", but if you want to be a jerk about it...!

Nefarious: I'm sorry too. You should know that even as I was wishing the Blarg would tear you apart limb from limb so I can riverdance around your smoldering squishy carcass!! I still considered you a friend. [Gives Qwark a wrench]

Qwark: [Gasps] An Inter-Galactic Tool of Justice Award!

Plumber: If you fellas are done, I'm gonna need that wrench back. [Qwark and Nefarious stare at him in embarrassment, Nefarious drops Qwark]

[The Plumber has just repaired the rails, and sees them off]

Ratchet: Wait, aren't you gonna give us some cryptic advice we can use to defeat Nevo?

Plumber: Ooh, sorry friend. That kind of advice, I'm afraid I don't have. Good luck.

(Ratchet and his allies find Susie with two other Tharpod children in Uzo City)

Ratchet: Susie? What are you doing here?

Susie: Leading an assault!

(Ratchet looks concerned)

Ratchet: I know how you feel kid. A few years ago, I'd be doing the same thing. But running into something you're unprepared for isn't going to bring them back. Tell you what, why don't you and your friends stay here and guard this spot for us?

Susie: You mean like, hold the perimeter?

Ratchet: Exactly. No one in, no one out.

(Susie hugs Ratchet who does the same with her. After a few seconds, they part away)

Qwark: Do you guys want me to hold the perimeter too?

Ratchet: You're coming, and stop falling to the back of the group, you're not fooling anyone.

[At the end of the game, Cronk and Zephyr's ship finally lands on Magnus]

Cronk: [Jumps out and points his gun at Nefarious' face] All right, Nefarious. Hands where I can see them! [Dr. Nefarious pushes Cronk's gun away from his face]

Ratchet: Wait, how did you guys get down here?

Zephyr: Eh, yes, about that... Help finally arrived. [Lawrence is shown in the ship]

Lawrence: Good evening, sir. I hope you don't mind, but well... it turns out the "evil sidekick" - market is a bit thin these days. I don't suppose there's room in your employ for... one more?

Qwark: Nice try, Lawrence, but today has been a day of revelation for all of us. Together we faced a villain that was neither Robot nor Squishy. And we learned a little something about life: Friendship! And the sticky connective tissue between right and wrong. So I'm afraid Dr. Nefarious isn't going to do anything but steal... [spots the ship leaving] Our ship!! [Nefarious and Lawrence take off in Cronk and Zephyr's ship]

Dr. Nefarious: What did you expect?! I'm a super villain!! [laughs] Bon voyage, LOSERS!!! [he and Lawrence fly off]

Ratchet: Sometimes it feels like the universe rights itself.

Cronk: Yeah, but how do we get off this rock now?

[After being stranded on Magnus, Ratchet suggests driving Ephemeris back to Igliak]

Ratchet: I'll fly.

Qwark: I call shotgun!

Clank: I am not sure this vessal is ready for interplanetary travel.

Ratchet: Nevo flew it from over from Vilerrog, didn't he? Besides, coupla new ion ducts, some hull sealant, maybe a new grav-thruster. We'll be off the planet in no time!

Cronk: What planet? Who the heck are you people?!

Clank: Ratchet, we cannot pilot a weaponized drone into Luminopolis!

Ratchet: Relax, I pilot weaponized drones into Luminopolis twice a week. It's like a fine of 10 bolts and a class you take online. Qwark can probably pardon us.

Qwark: Perks of the job!

Clank: Oh, why do I even bother?
