TOM 5's Speeches

Similar to his predecessors, Moltar, TOM 1, & TOM 3.5, TOM 5 has now continued the tradition of delivering motivational, introspective speeches interspersed with clips from Toonami's shows. In his first speech, "Equality", SARA also delivered a couple lines, it is unknown if this will be a one time only occurrence, or if she will now contribute on all speeches.

Equality
TOM: "Hey SARA, I've been thinkin' about something you said."

SARA: "Why did the computer go to the doctor?"

TOM: "Uh, no, wait, what?"

SARA: "Oh nothing, just an A.I. joke, what's up?"

TOM: "So people should all be equal right?"

SARA: "Yeah it's 2013, everyone knows that by now."

TOM: "Well some people don't, that's the problem. […] And they don't want you to even try because they're afraid."

SARA: "And so they want you to be afraid?"

TOM: "Right. […] They'll tell you you're not strong enough, smart enough, or talented enough to do what you wanna do. But here's the thing, you can't ever give into their fear. It's always their waiting for you, but if you give in it will stop you from doing anything."

SARA: "Well that stinks, because you can do anything. You really, really can."

TOM: "No matter what your sex, race, or creed. […] You can be strong, you can be smart, you can be equal. […] Try to remember that when anyone tells you you're not capable of something, or you don't deserve something, or you don't belong somewhere. […]"

SARA: "I may be an A.I., but I know one thing. You humans are created equal."

TOM: "Everyone is capable of greatness, including you. […]"

Respect
"I think its time we talked about Respect. How to earn it, when to give it, and what it's good for. Seems to me a lot of folks these days don't care much about respecting other people. […] Everybody wants to get respect, but nobody seems to wanna give it. […] Maybe in this anonymous computer age some of us have forgotten what its like to be human. […] Sure its fun to be right and of course you wanna win, but that doesn't mean you can be a jerk. […] You can't go around saying the world owes you something, or anything for that matter. […] You gotta get out there and earn that respect. And one good way to make sure you get respect, and get what you deserve, is to give a little respect. So before you fire off another smite, take a second, and just think about it. […] Respectfully yours, TOM."

Positivity
"I know how it feels sometimes. The world can look bleak, times can seem tough, and somedays, nothing's gonna go your way. […] But you can't let that break you down. You can't let that change who you are. […] You're gonna have to dig deep and find that extra positivity to keep the grind from grinding you. […] Whether that's staying positive when everything seems against you. […] Or being positive and helping someone else out. […] There's one thing I'm sure of, positivity will be your light in the darkness. [...] Now let's get back out there and keep fighting the fight. […]"
