"The tricky part was making sure the buffers integrated properly with the additional electrical load." "After all, the proximity alarm has to encompass the entire Scrapyard or" "Russell, are you listening?" "Yep, pox alarm, bluffers and toads." "( alarm wailing ) Aah!" "What's that?" "It works!" "( alarm wailing in distance )" "( sighs )" "( groans )" "What's that noise?" "( alarm stops ) It's our new pox" "Uh, proximity alarm." "Which I know how to operate, because I was totally listening." "Oh, you were hardly" "Anyway, how did the mission go?" "Wandered through 7 klicks of mud to find an empty pod." "To be accurate, the pod wasn't completely empty." "Sideswipe, tell Fixit how you lent a hand." "Oh, that's right." "You didn't." "Hey, if anyone slowed us down it was Grimlock." "I've seen fried circuits livelier than you were today." "No offense" " Ow!" "( both gasp )" "( grunting )" "Grimlock!" "( growling )" "What's gotten into... ( growling ) ...you?" "♪ Transformers ♪" "♪ Robots in disguise ♪" "♪ Robots in disguise ♪" "( roars ) ♪ Robots in disguise ♪" "♪ Robots in disguise ♪" "( growling )" "( roars )" "Whoa!" "( dramatic theme playing )" "( growling )" "What's your backfire, Grimlock?" "( growling )" "Break it up!" "Keep your hands-- Unh!" "off of me, Autobot!" "Whoa!" "Unh!" "( grunting )" "Fixit, get Russell into the Command Center!" "( growling )" "What are you doing?" "Trying to protect you from a violent attacker, if you hadn't noticed." "You mean protect me from a teammate?" "Grimlock assaulted both you and Bee without cause." "( grunting )" "You assault me all the time." "Unh!" "( grunting )" "( dramatic theme playing )" "Grimlock, stop!" "Unh!" "Stop fighting me." "They don't stand a chance, and neither do you." "( grunting )" "( Sideswipe screams )" "Dude, what is this about?" "It's about me flattening you." "( grunts )" "( both gasp )" "( groaning )" "( grunting )" "Keep moving..." "Who's Grimlock talking to?" "( groans )" "Grimlock's coming this way." "I'll handle this." "You'll handle a Dinobot?" "Have you seen you?" "You're right." "I'm gonna be smooshed." "But I am still the official caretaker of the Alchemor." "And when I'm gone," "I need you to keep your dad from touching my things." "( suspenseful theme playing )" "Grimlock, I don't know what's happening, but I order you to stand clown" "Stand brown" "Stand down right now!" "Don't know if your optics are on the blink, but I just took apart three bots without warming my coolant." "( groaning )" "( groaning )" "( grunting )" "What are you gonna do, Squeaky?" "( yells )" "( groans )" "( growling )" "This isn't you, Grimlock." "Something's wrong." "Yeah, everyone's in my way!" "Aah!" "( grunting )" "Seriously, you're not gonna let me smash this little thing?" "Dinobots...so hard..." "to control." "Fine." "Ah." "Where are the stasis pods?" "( groaning )" "Are you okay?" "Abso-loosely, posi-stiffly not." "Fixit, I need you to tell me how to work the proximity alarm." "Oh, now you want to" "Fixit!" "Maybe we can use it to scare Grimlock or whatever's commanding him away." "Controls are on that panel." "( gears grinding )" "( grunts )" "Unh!" "Might take me a moment to get there, however." "It's a very simple procedure." "All you have to do is" "Push the red button!" "Now that the Autobots have been dealt with," "I can pick up what I came for." "And I thought Corvicons were hoarders." "Huh?" "( growls )" "You're first up, Underbite." "( grunting )" "( alarm wailing ) Huh?" "( screams )" "( alarm wailing )" "Turn that noise off!" "( alarm stops )" "( gasps )" "Listen, human," "I know you were trying to signal for help." "I wasn't, but help's coming anyway." "Optimus Prime should be here any second." "Huh." "Optimus?" "That was our new proximity alarm." "It means Optimus is close by." "I can't beat Optimus mano a mano." "But the boss will scrap me if I come back empty-handed." "Ah." "I'm not empty-handed." "I have Underbite." "( ominous theme playing )" "FIXIT:" "Well, his systems appear normal." "Can you hear me, Sideswipe?" "( groaning )" "Where's Grimlock?" "Russell scared him away, but Grimlock has Underbite." "Said he was taking the Con to some boss." "But" "I can't believe I fell for the old innocent T Rex routine." "We should interrogate Grimlock's known associates." "He's clearly been fooling us all this time." "We are Grimlock's known associates." "I-I think maybe" "I've seen Grimlock's rap sheet." "The only crime on there is severe property damage due to Grimlock being..." "Grimlock." "That's what he wants us to think." "If you'll just" "No way Grimlock attacked us willingly." "The boss must have forced him." "Hey!" "I don't think Grimlock's in control of himself." "He wanted to hit me, but he couldn't." "It was like there was a war going on inside him." "Accept it." "Grimlock's just a bad bot who's been playing us for suckers." "Whatever's going on, our first priority is to find Grimlock and that pod, and bring them both back here." "This isn't Grim's fault, Bee." "What Russell's saying is at least possible, right?" "Tell me you know that." "( sighs )" "I can't locate Grimlock's signal." "Comm and tracking systems were damaged when he hit the console." "Okay, Grim said he was meeting someone, therefore they must have set a rendezvous point." "It sounded like the original plan was for Grimlock to grab more than one pod." "Are there any secluded areas nearby that are large enough to hide, say, a dozen bots?" "The Crown River Dam." "It's huge." "And fully automated." "No human personnel." "We'll start there." "Fixit, you and Russell try to get the comm systems functioning." "Autobots, maximum velocity!" "( crickets chirping )" "All right, fine." "Just transform, please." "( dramatic theme playing )" "Fixit, can you call up the Alchemor's prisoner manifest?" "Russell, Bee directly ordered us to repair the comm system, so" "This'll only take a second." "( suspenseful theme playing )" "There." "Oh, my." "Russell, we need let Bee's team know what they're facing immediately or they may never make it back." "( dramatic theme playing )" "( suspenseful theme playing )" "At least our fugitive should be easy to track." "I'll take point." "I'd hate for our teammate to get nailed by a trigger-happy peace officer." "I don't know what's gonna happen when we find Grimlock." "But I promise you that I'll do everything possible to see that he doesn't get hurt." "( alarm bleeps )" "( both screaming )" "STRONGARM:" "Lieutenant!" "( both grunting )" "Sideswipe, grab on." "Whoa!" "( Sideswipe screams )" "( dramatic theme playing )" "( sighs )" "Sir, are you okay?" "Fine." "Me too." "Thanks for asking." "A cryo-inducer from the stasis pod." "Friendly bots don't generally build traps for the good guys." "Right, lieutenant?" "( grunts )" "Russell, I need a hyper-span regulator." "What does a hyper-span regulator look like?" "It looks like this." "Oh." "Found one." "The comm system will either work or we'll be caught in a fiery explosion." "Heh." "Fifty-fifty." "( mariachi music playing over speakers )" "Well, didn't explode." "( ominous theme playing )" "I didn't expect you so soon." "Thunderhoof's still scouting for a larger base, but I'll be glad to help you with the pods." "After all, a good leader is only first among equals." "I, uh, had a little problem, boss." "Only got one pod." "Let me guess." "You ran away." "The Autobots were all over me, but I took care of 'em and" "And..." "I snagged Underbite." "Between him and me, how much more muscle do you need?" "That's a rather cowardly way to justify failure." "But as far as my intention to make this world a home for all Decepticons, you and Underbite are at least a place to start." "BUMBLEBEE:" "Or end, Steeljaw." "( dramatic theme playing )" "You took care of them, did you?" "Mostly." "( Steeljaw growls )" "Savor the daylight." "Things are about to get rather dark." "( action theme playing )" "( both grunting )" "Get clear, lieutenant!" "I'm trying!" "Grim, tell me you were just playing along with Steeljaw." "You were leading us straight to him all along, right?" "I could tell you that." "But I'd be lying." "( grunting )" "( both grunting )" "You fight like you don't wanna hurt me." "But I got no problem hurting you." "( growls )" "( both grunting )" "( growls )" "( grunts )" "( all grunt )" "( grunts )" "Get a grip on yourself." "Like this?" "( both grunting )" "What did you do to Grimlock, Steeljaw?" "Some kind of mind control?" "( grunts )" "Oh, is it so hard to believe the Dinobot would chose me over all of you?" "Yeah, it kinda is." "( grunts then growls )" "You whole, cadet?" "Just got my bell rung." "( both groan )" "( dramatic theme playing )" "Whatever you've done to Grimlock, undo it, now!" "( laughing )" "I believe you have more pressing concerns." "( Bumblebee  Strongarm yell )" "( Grimlock humming )" "( Bumblebee  Strongarm grunting )" "Oh, I doubt they're going to survive this." "It isn't over, Steeljaw." "( growling ) Aah!" "Nice catch." "Anything for a" "( all grunt )" "( roars )" "Does Grimlock look like he's playing for our team right now?" "( grunting )" "( dramatic theme playing )" "( all grunting )" "STEELJAW:" "Farewell, brother." "I need Decepticons who don't turn simple tasks into debacles." "I can finish this, Steeljaw!" "Wait for me!" "( growls )" "( all grunting )" "( growls )" "Sideswipe, can you keep him busy?" "Wish I didn't have to, but, yeah." "( roaring )" "Strongarm, with me." "( dramatic theme playing )" "( growling )" "( grunting )" "Huh?" "Aah!" "You know what I always liked best about you, Grimlock?" "Your height." "( grunting )" "( Grimlock panting )" "( growling )" "Grimlock, you have the right to remain silent." "FIXIT ( over comm ):" "Lieutenant, can you hear me?" "Is it working?" "Russell, it's not" "Go ahead, Fixit." "( mariachi music playing over comm )" "FIXIT:" "Oh, sorry about that." "Grimlock is not Grimlock." "I mean, Grimlock is Grimlock, but he's not Grimlock." "RUSSELL:" "There's a cyber-tick named Minitron who can control any bot he bites." "He must be hiding somewhere on Grimlock's plating." "Get off of me!" "( giggling )" "Oh, that tickles." "( giggling )" "Stop!" "Stop it!" "Enough with the tricks, Minitron." "We know you're-- Sweet Solus Prime!" "What?" "Is it on me?" "Where?" "Okay, get it off!" "Get it off, get it off, get it off!" "( groaning )" "Where'd he go?" "Oof!" "This is getting ridiculous." "( both grunt )" "Ridiculous for you, kind of fun for me." "( all shouting )" "STRONGARM:" "He's not on me!" "( ominous theme playing )" "GRIMLOCK:" "Gotcha." "( growling )" "( squealing )" "Grimlock, I know Minitron hurt you, but he's no longer a threat." "We can't squish him." "( squealing )" "Oh, I can definitely squish him." "( squealing )" "Then again, I'm not a bad guy." "( mellow theme playing )" "( squealing )" "Grimlock." "I'm sorry, I was" "Just doing your job." "It's your job now too, Grimlock." "You're one of us." "We'll get Fixit to change that Decepticon symbol." "Oh, yeah!" "Ahem." "I mean, oh, yeah." "Thank you, sir." "And you two... ( ominous theme playing )" "( Sideswipe grunting )" "( groaning ):" "No problem." "Can I have my lungs back?" "In a minute." "( sighs )" "What's wrong?" "Steeljaw has Underbite." "Who now has all the time in the world to consume metal and increase his strength." "Good thing we're getting stronger all the time too." "RUSSELL ( groaning ):" "Grimlock, seriously..." "Oxygen!"
