Microbots
Um. The Lady archeologist has bright blue hair. That wasn’t an Eighties thing, but no one notices.
Brawn is dissing Perceptor for being a
scientist. Bullying is viewed as acceptable even in the noble group. How sad. Bumblebee
defends him though. Yeah! Tell him Bee!
Huh? There’s a giant spaceship buried in Maya area. It’s the Nemesis! The ship the Decepticons chased the Ark in four million years ago.
(That means Decepticons built several bases and space ships at Cybertronian level with just Earth stuff made out of purple metal they stole. Very impressive!)
The Heart of Cybertron! Gasp! Is this the Decepticon Matrix of Leadership?? No, just a big battery.
Dude! Prime is dead again. Oh. Never mind, he’s fine. It’s hard to tell. They always go down so hard.
So- in order to stop the Constructicons, which are primarily excavators of some kind, they have buried them. Probably not the best strategy there, Autobots. Morons.
Perceptor just happens to have a Grower/ Shrinker ray. How convenient. Excuse me it’s a “Transit Reduction Beam.” (Is that a Rocky Horror reference?) Finally, they have built something actually useful for the Autobots.
And now we have a teeny tiny Brawn, Perceptor and Bumblebee.
Meanwhile, the Decepticons have an Energon toast. Drinking it makes them drunk? (Sorry, “over energized.”) Charging is so weird. Is Energon food? Is it drink? Do they plug into the wall? Does it last months, days, minutes? It’s almost like the writers are making it all up as they go…
The Decepticons are all passed out. So- Why
not forget the Fantastic Voyage plan and just kill them?
I’m wondering if Brawn had similar logic and reason circuits damage to Red Alert. He isn’t always this much of a jerk.
Megatron’s “evil brain impulses” are robot snakes. How about that?
Hey, Autobots! The force field you built to save you from uber power Megatron is only twenty feet wide… and you set it up about thirty feet in front of the Ark. Eh, I’m sure they’ll be fine.
They are, because Megatron is completely focused on Optimus and stands there shooting directly at him and therefore the force field. Earth does make you stupid.
Bumblebee grows and runs across Megatron’s chest stating, “Excuse us.”
I wonder if that was the inspiration for
Snarl’s similar door smashing moment in the movie? (I’m getting ahead of myself.)
Oh, now anyone can make Energon cubes. It
used to only be Soundwave because of his cassette thingy. Yeah, that doesn’t
make sense either but at least it was consistent.
Lots of questions in this major story line:
How does a failed mayoral candidate have tanks?
Tracks is a Corvette that flies AND has a darkness beam? Is he from another show? Mask maybe?
Berger, the failed mayoral candidate, has purple hair, why does no one notice?
Berger is teaming up with the Decepticons and betraying humanity all to be mayor of two cities. This is a Doofenschmirtz level of focus.
Wow, in spite of previous disasters, the Decepticons are suddenly really good actors.
How about that? A single faked tape and a sleazy industrialist who owns a network convinced everyone on Earth the good guys are really bad. After the past couple of years, this is very believable.
Optimus’s trailer disappearing will never not be funny now that we know it and Roller are sentient.
With the Decepticon made video released the crowd hurls tomatoes at the Autobots, leading to the age-old question: Why do crowds always bring tomatoes, even to see things they like?
Berger’s tanks look like Cobra HISS vehicles. That makes more sense. Also, I’m pretty sure the newscaster is the Baroness.
The Autobots roll out with eighteen different cars and trucks and all three people going with them pile into the Volkswagen bug.

The Decepticons would have gotten away
with it if they didn’t film themselves taking their masks off. Earth makes you stupid.
Berger the evil industrialist vying for more power, has a spacecraft. This episode is prophetic.
Based on the timeline, Spike has been gone on his investigation for days. Sparkplug probably assumes he died on a regular basis.
Soundwave has fangirls. Who needs authority?
Hey, its Cosmos! (the flying saucer that talks like Peter Lorre) Good thing the Autobots are exiled off planet with an
actual space ship. We never do find out where he came from.
With the revelation of the evidence, the world immediately turns on Berger. We’re back to fantasy now.
Soundwave sent TWO cassettes after Spike. Well, he is the smartest one.

I know I’ve talked about this before, but
oil goes directly into a cube and becomes Energon, where coal has to be burned.
Charging is very confusing.
Wow, Trailbreaker’s force field
protected them all from diving into the sun. Since it usually folds after a
couple of shots, I guess he got an upgrade. I really like Trailbreaker (black Toyota pick up truck) on this return to the show. It's a shame he fades out of focus.
Megatron sends a Seeker after Chip, but he gets away anyway. Seriously, we’re so lucky Soundwave isn’t running everything.
Autobots return and there is a HUGE firefight with everyone! Which sadly means they couldn’t afford animation and they all stand still. Alas.
Hey, isn’t that Flint?
Berger will face justice for his treachery. Yup, more fantasy.
Soundwave was literally hiding in Ironhide.
I really think the transforming specifically confounds Cybertronians. Oh,
Blaster’s there too. See? They can’t see each other when transformed.
Y’know, if Mirage stayed invisible until he was more than five feet away from what he does when invisible, he’d be way more effective.
Carly! Woo! She just switched off Bumblebee's equilibrium circuit to let him enjoy an amusement park ride that easily?!?! That seems like a design flaw.
The Autobots keep the Dinobots in a closet. No wonder they’re pissy all the time. Man, the Dinobots are indestructible as dinosaurs but super vulnerable in robot form. That also seems like a design flaw.
What is going on? Bad Energon made the Decepticons not fly?
Megatron loses his voice. Starscream- “I’m in charge now.” This will go well.
Oh, it’s not only the bad guys, everyone is screwed up, and they’re not really sure why.
Oh good, Perceptor knows. Ah. It’s Earths fault. (It does make you stupid?) Oh, there is no Cybertonium here. That was my next guess.
Carly is even smarter than Spike. Too bad she’s never around.

Dinobots were made on Earth and therefore have no Cybertonium.
Is being made on Earth what makes them dumb?
Grimlock is about an inch away from killing the three humans and I would not fault him in the least.
OK, we have confirmed the Decepticon Space Bridge is only way to Cybertron. So, where did other Autobots come from? I guess they did all come in Cosmos and Omega Supreme. Either that or there are other Autobot ships crashed in volcanos all over the Earth.
Fun! Yet again a slow Devastator combination during combat allows the Dinobots to reach Cybertron. I’m sure it will be fine.
Carly- “Hey let’s go to Cybertron!” Maybe she is dumber than Spike.
Then again, Carly out drives Devastator. I think she is an Autobot.
Oof, Carly didn’t outdrive Shockwave. His
blast (which makes a Hanna Barbera. oooO-WAH-ooo noise) disintegrated the car
but did not damage the occupants. I don’t think insurance covers “vaporized on
another planet.” Then again, given who he hangs around with, I’m betting Spike
can’t get insurance.
Confirmed! Carly is just as dumb as the rest. She tried to take over a computer by fiddling with wires and shorted out all of Cybertron.

As they escape, Carly twisted her ankle. Seriously, they went
there? Just so Spike can carry her? Good grief. Well, their boy Daniel is
pretty cool. (I’m getting ahead of myself, again.)
Spike is once more wielding a pistol larger than himself. Another time to mention the giant brass bearings on that kid. Except he shot Swoop. Sigh. Spike is the Reed Richards of this universe, simultaneously the smartest and the most foolish.
Oh look, Cybertonium mining pits. Wasn’t
that in One?
Her ankle magically healed. Maybe she was just flirting. Crappy timing there, Carly. She’s looking for information on ancestors of Autobots. Yes, she’s brilliant but biology is not her strong point.
Cool, the first LORE of old Cybertron. The fact that Autobots are not designed for combat is confirmed.
Carly goes straight under the hood of their opponent for more memory circuit mind control. That should be harder. Seems like a design flaw.
Spike’s plan is to pick a fight with Grimlock. I take back everything I said about him being smart. Holy crap! Wait, it worked!
Cybertonium is apparently aqua colored Energon, good to know.
The kids are made honorary Autobots. Considering how often they save everyone, that should have been a season ago. Though I’m starting to think Chip really did die.
Being that the Dinobots have saved everyone YET AGAIN, can they not live in a closet now?
