Script from the game Mega Man Powered Up, Cut Man's storyline only.

Scene 1: Prologue

Narrator: The year 20XX. With the advancement of science, humans were able to create industrial humanoid robots. Invented by the foremost authority on robotics, Dr. Light, Cutman is a lumber-cutting robot.

(The scene opens as Cut Man is seen running through the Opening Stage until he is stopped by Roll.)

Roll: We have a problem!

(A big monitor is shown to the right of the two and Dr. Wily is seen on the screen.)

Dr. Wily: Wahahahaha! Ladies and gentlemen, your attention, please. The name's Wily! The one and only -- the brilliant scientist, Dr. Wily! It may seem rather sudden to you, but I've decided I'd like to take over the world! Ahem! Anyway, to begin... Dr. Light! I'll be taking your precious robots!!

(The screen shatters as Dr. Wily in his saucer comes flying out of it. Dr. Wily then proceeds to talk to Cut Man and Roll.)

Dr. Wily: Nuhahahaha!! That is to say... Hmm?... What's this? Oh, Cutman... I have no use for a piece of junk that can only remove branches from trees! Nuhahahahah!

(Dr. Wily's capsule flies away.)

Roll: Our friends are in trouble, Cutman! Let's hurry to the lab!

Dr. Light: ...What insanity! Using my robots to conquer the world...

Cut Man: Professor! Leave it up to me!

Dr. Light: Cutman?!

(Dr. Light thinks for a bit.)

Dr. Light: Hmmm... Alright... I understand. I don't like it, but sometimes, such things must be done... I must make the necessary preparations.

(Dr. Light proceeds to prepare Cut Man for combat.)

Dr. Light: So that you can cut even the highest of branches, I'll give you the additional ability to perform a super jump.
