Where Have All the Sonics Gone? is episode 41 of Season 2 of Sonic Boom, the CGI comedy series made by Technicolor Animation Productions with Sega of America. It premiered in the United States on 19 August 2017 on Boomerang.
Synopsis
Mombot wants her “boys” to cooperate, so Eggman and Morpho team up, and Morpho’s portal box drops Sonic, mid-race with Knuckles, into a reality with no Sonic in it. The other half of the plan, Morpho posing as Sonic at home, falls apart fast: Amy sees through his sweet talk, and Meh Burger laughs at the “Sonic” who orders a salad.
In the other world, Knuckles is a fitness-TV celebrity, Lord Eggman rules the village from a throne carried by Gogobas, and talking back gets Sonic thrown in jail. A tough local Amy breaks him out and takes him to the Rebellion, led by a hard-nosed Sticks. Sonic insists they need the whole team, and Knuckles signs up after losing a race to Gourmet Burger and back.
The real surprise waits at Lord Eggman’s lair, where this world’s Tails builds robots as the tyrant’s eager sidekick. When Lord Eggman fires on the team regardless of Tails standing in the way, Sonic saves him, and the fox switches sides for the final blow. This Tails opens a portal home, where Sonic and his real friends pound Eggman and Morpho. Mombot, at least, is proud of the teamwork.
