"Previously on Transformers Prime..." "Ratchet, what happened to Bumblebee's voice box?" "Our brave scout was captured by Megatron's forces and interrogated." "Bumblebee was left for scrap, where a field medic managed to stabilize his condition." "Though, the medic could've done better." "By the Allspark." "Bumblebee's T-cog isn't damaged." "It's missing." "Is that like a..." "T-bone?" "It's the organ that allows us to scan vehicles and transform." "Why are you here?" "To propose an alliance." "A T-cog isn't technology ..." "it is biology." "We possess two more sets of coordinates which Orion decrypted before departing our ranks." "Let us see what other long-lost treasures we might be reunited with." "2x05" " Operation Bumblebee part 2" "Of all the scrap-brained ideas ..." "taking Bumblebee into a potential chase scenario when he no longer has the ability to access his wheels?" "!" " He improvised." " Hey, Bee's waking up." "You've already lost your voice box and your T-cog." "Were you really trying to add your Spark to the list?" "Don't say that, Bumblebee." "You're not useless." "Look, I hate to break up the pity party, but the 'Cons just added unknown Iacon payday number two to their armory." "Neither blame nor praise will modify past events, but we cannot afford to take further unnecessary risks." "Bumblebee, you are not to leave our base ... not until we can retrieve your missing biomechanism." "Bumblebee is right to be less than hopeful, but you and I both know there exists a way to make him whole again." "A transplant, but that would require a donor." "You need look no further than the Autobot standing before you." "A generous offer, old friend, but your solution would merely trade one Autobot's handicap for another's." "I don't rely upon my T-cog ..." "not like Bumblebee does." "The ability to transform is virtually wasted on me." "This is where I spend my days, where my thoughts and hands are of value, not my weapons or wheels." "but know that we will find Bumblebee's T-cog." "Optimus, MECH are savages." "Who knows what damage they may have already inflicted upon it or ..." "or if I will be able to repair it?" "Ratchet, you did everything in your power." "Please." "Do you really think this is simply about my inability to restore Bumblebee's voice box?" "I..." "I just want to do what's right for our scout... for the team." "Ahh." "Excellent work, Knockout." "I live to serve, Lord Megatron." "But what exactly is it?" "Now you know." "I... think I leaked a little transmission fluid." "Source located." "Yes, gratifying, isn't it, Silas?" "I often advised Megatron to seek out human allies." "After all, it seems to provide the Autobots with an occasional edge." "But despite his reputation as a brilliant strategist, Megatron is woefully small-minded when it comes to working with minds smaller than our own." "I was simply referring to head size." "Do you ever not speak?" "Did I mention that I've personally extinguished an Autobot?" "Energon in its purest state." "Ready to be mined." "And processed, my flesh-covered compatriot, to give us the edge." "Obviously, since I am the other patient involved," "I will be unable to perform the surgery." "Therefore, one of you must serve as my proxy." "Better at breaking things." "Phew!" " Arcee." " Optimus has steadier hands." "Steady and much too large to be rooting around beneath my hood." "Arcee, you can do this." "You're as steely as they come." "On a battlefield, not in an operating theater." "Same thing, as long as you're behind the knife, not under it." "Does this mean Bumblebee's gonna transform into an ambulance from now on or be all cranky?" "'Cause that would be weird." "Inducing stasis." "You can... thank me when... it's over." "Okay, Bumblebee." "Your turn." "What's happening?" "!" "Ratchet's flatlining!" "No, he isn't." "It's an Iacon homing beacon." "If we're picking up the signal, it means the 'Cons just unearthed another relic." " Autobots, prepare to roll out." " Yes!" "Except for our patients." "It would be best to interrupt stasis." "Prime!" "Breaking news." "Huh?" "Where's Prime?" "Look, let him know ..." "I just received access to satellite imagery which I believe pinpoints the center of operations of MECH." "Oh, for the love of ..." "get me someone who speaks  something other than "bleep"!" "I can help." "What?" "Do I hear a fuzor in need of voice-box repair?" "What's a fuzor?" "!" "What's going on over there?" "I am able." "Just ask Bantor." "He was all mandrel before I put a tiger in his tank." "But, Bee, you heard what Optimus said about leaving the base." "Send the coordinates, agent Fowler." "We'll... make sure Optimus gets them." "I don't get it." "All this chipping away with my hammer just to bring Megatron another hammer?" "That hammer is a sacred relic of the 13 original Primes." "Really?" "Isn't that the opposite of decepticon Doomsday device?" "It would stand to reason that in addition to confiscated decepticon artillery, any artifacts of great significance stored in the Vaults of Iacon would also have been shipped off world." "And none would be greater than this ... the forge of" "Solus Prime ... for it possesses the power to mystically infuse raw material with working mechanisms." "As in, if we had it, we could pound any weapon we can dream of into existence?" "Or possibly construct a new T-cog for Bumblebee." "Initiate transfusion." "It's working." "Energon, it will do wonders for our future army." "Your future army." "In fact, we are mere moments from beholding the miracle of transformation." "No T-cog." "He's unarmed." "Time to get a grip." "Autobots, check out my new finished protector." "So close, and yet..." "Our location and prototype have been compromised." "Destroy the intruder and meet me at the rendezvous point ..." "with my T-cog." "I am not one of your foot soldiers!" "I am a consultant!" "One step, and your precious biomech is scrap." "Ratchet, how you feeling?" "Fine." "In fact, I feel as though nothing's changed." "Prime!" "What is it, agent Fowler?" "Has Prime reached the coordinates?" "Coordinates?" "Possible MECH location!" "I sent them a half-hour ago!" "Uh, don't worry, agent Fowler." "It's taken care of." "Optimus had to go lock fenders with some 'Cons." "So, Bumblebee went instead." "What?" "!" "Bumblebee can't do that!" "He's recovering from surgery!" "About that..." "Or you'll what?" "Shoot?" "How sad ... to be incapable of achieving vehicle mode, experiencing the sensation of speed." "How very pathetic ... to be a failure as an Autobot." "Time to jet ... because I can!" "My T-cog." "Yes, that." "Unfortunately, it was destroyed during the ferocity of battle." "A, uh... a temporary setback." "Other Autobots, other T-cogs." "We shall find a replacement soon enough." "Not "soon enough." Now!" "For the most creative use of a shield generator in a supporting role, the winner is Knockout." "Mine's bigger." "Bulkhead!" "No-o-o." "A relic of the Primes here on Earth?" "The decepticon cause is once again indebted to the contributions of Orion Pax." "I'm fine." "Optimus, we have reason to believe we have located MECH's center of operations." "Bumblebee is already there." "What?" "Autobots!" "My T-cog!" "Ratchet, reopen the ground bridge and prepare for surgery." "Thanks to me, Megatron has the forge." "While we would've put the forge of Solus Prime to valuable use," "I do not believe we have reason to fear Megatron's possession of it." "Hmm." "It doesn't look like a fortress-maximus grade nucleon shock cannon." "It is as I suspected ... without the power of a Prime to activate it, the forge is merely another addition to our tool chest." "One we must nonetheless keep as far as possible from the reach of a Prime." "I... did what I could." "Our scout could not have been in better hands, old friend." "And we didn't stick with plan "A" and let Ratchet donate his Cog why?" "Bumblebee wouldn't accept it." "Bumblebee!" "Easy." "Please." "Recovery takes time." "The damage was... severe." "Anywhere." "Just... drive." "Go easy!" "Adhere to standard break-in procedure!" "Wh-o-oa!" "Bee's T-cog looked like it was ready for the scrapyard." "Hard to believe the Doc repaired it." "That is not all that Ratchet repaired today."
