The Probe
Dinobot is worried about repercussions of going back to Cybertron because he was a Predacon. Isn’t Optimus the leader of the Maximals? I feel he could address that.
Tarantulas has built a “stick you in beast mode” floating ray shooting thing. Apparently, it also makes them bigger morons, (or at least lazy) as they don’t try to fight back at all.
Rattrap’s little pistol is showing ridiculous power again. He blew Scorponok’s arm clean off. This show is brutal.
I know they’re evil, but why is there lava IN the Predacon ship? That seems like a design flaw.
Blackarachnia isn’t just a robot black widow, she’s a NINJA robot black widow. (Who can withstand Rattrap’s shots!) Maybe Cybertronians stole the plans of the Nightbird.
Speaking of brutal… Optimus just shot clean through Tarantulas. They must have some awesome repair booths on both teams, on top of being resilient.
Rhinox! He saved his stuck in Ape mode boss! Hey, Rhinox- Yes punches are very satisfying but maybe using your gatling guns at point blank range would have stopped Megatron for longer.
Megatron’s hand with his tail around it is the missile launcher. So… the hand that is fully his Tyrannosaur head doesn’t shoot anymore? What is it then? A puppet?
What a surprise, they didn’t contact the probe and get rescued half way through the first season. This show is basically Gilligan’s Island with warring robot animals thrown in.
Victory
Speaking of questions, how and when did the Maximals install a spy camera in the Pred base?
Wow! See I told you they were unstable, the Predacon ship blew up again.
Whoah! Dinobot goes Shakespearean about Tarantulas.
And Cheetor gets even more jerky.
The Maximals steal a bunch of parts to
fix the Axalon and fly home. Finally, someone is thinking.
Dinobot refuses to leave this familiar looking planet, because the Maximals all suck. That is the likely reason. The stated reason is his concern of being made a prisoner on Cybertron while he can rule here. Dinobot has gone from quoting Shakespeare to Milton.
Gasp. The Predacons are alive. They acted out a whole scene for the known spy camera. I. Am. Shocked.

Tarantulas just ate a rat. But, he’s a robot.
How… Never mind.
Dinobot has spotted the bad guys! It’s another chase...on foot. Y'know, considering they’re “descended” from the Decepticons very few Predacons can fly.
Optimus Primal, naturally will go out of the Cybertron bound ship to save Dinobot. But first he grabs a big old shield, from a completey full rack of them, showing they have enough for all the Maximals. Unsurprisingly, we have never seen them before, and will never see them again.
Cheetor goes with him because he’s the Bumblebee equivalent.
Ah, Megatron’s Tyrannosaur head hand does still shoot lasers. The tail hand shoots missiles, I get it now.
AAAAaand, all three Maximals are down. Excellent rescuing there. Top form. *Golf clap*
Hey, Rhinox, maybe shooting the Predacons with the ship’s blasters should have been done before your buddies all got gunned down instead of afterwards. Well, it looks like you saved them all any…
Oh, no. Primal fell, thanks to Scorponok’s variable ammunition pulling off a precision, gentle shot out of nowhere.
They also, accidentally, let Megatron on board. This is literally the worst rescue ever.
Oh, there’s another use of the Tyrannosaur head hand, it’s a rat crusher.
OUCH! Rhinox punched and then power bombed the Predacon leader. I think his physical attacks do deal out more damage than his gatling guns. Likely because... he is a rhinoceros.
Oh no! The Axalon is crashing again! I may be getting invested in this show.
Really? They did the actual “It’s a
bird, it’s a plane…” quote when Optimus flew to catch the ship, complete with
Rising Fifths?
Oh, the Axilon is damaged and can never fly. I’m so surprised we have returned to the status quo.
Dinobot confirms he is a Velociraptor. (Also confirming the scanning program made him about five times too big, and forgot his feathers. Then again, with what it did with the bugs, the size is not surprising. Also, the feather discovery was a few years from being confirmed back then.)
The Maximals have been ambushed in beast
mode… again. So much for heightened animal senses.
No wonder Rhinox likes punching. He can’t hit a thing with his gatlings. Oh, wait. He caused an avalanche on their foes, ‘cause he’s the smart one.
Now they have established it in canon. He has no desire to lead, but prefers to tag along behind and smell the flowers.
Um…That’s WAY behind Rhinox. Maybe tag along a bit closer so you’re not that easy to pick off?
And now he’s been captured. Because even the smart one is a moron.
Tarantulas bit and poisoned him. Why does that work? They’re really vague about what “Beast Mode” does but the evidence keeps showing they’re fully organic. (This will be important in the next series... and I'm getting ahead of myself again.)
The Predacons have a zappy machine to turn Maximals into Predacons. That’s handy.
Saying, “Better dead than Pred,” to Dinobot?
Cheetor the jerk again.
Optimus knows what’s up and isn’t concerned about this turn of events at all. That’s why he’s in charge.
Oh no! Scorponok noticed the redactor modem is missing! How will their equipment work? It’s so cute when creative types try to throw in technical language.

Predacon Rhinox has decided to take over the bad guys.
Scorponok is now flattened. These new Cybertronians’ recuperative powers
put the original Transformers to shame!
Rhinox took out Waspinator with no effort. The poor little doofus now thinks he’s Insecticon Shrapnel. And now Wonko The Sane. (Nice Hitchhiker’s reference there, guys.).
Hey Megatron! Perhaps giving the smart, competent, super strong, heavily armed, but laid back Maximal a huge does of ambition was poor planning on your part? A rare moron moment for the Predacon leader.
I am, however, a little unclear how Predaconing
Rhinox made all his hues a little darker.
Megatron still has two soldiers on his side, but Rhinox turns them against each other almost immediately. Good object lesson here. Beware the smart, quiet ones. (Especially when they are a rhinoceros.)
Dang- He just Gatlinged Megatron’s knees. That’s going to hurt for a long time.
At least Megatron can acknowledge a mistake. (Not being a full moron.) He reversed the zappy thing. The Maximals (who have been listening in to Rhinox’s communicator) waited for this inevitability to break in. Because the security on both sides is awful.
Oh, Surprise! The changer zappy thing blew up. They reuse plots enough as it is.
Ha! Megatron just pulled the “shooting the sword fighter” Indiana Jones thing on Optimus… moron.
Both of them, as Megatron didn’t shoot him enough and Optimus just hacked off his head arm. They really took advantage of Predacon resilience by knocking parts off them regularly in this show.
The Predacon ship (The Darksyde, because of course it is. Not sure when or if they say that either.) is a smoking wreck for about the third time this week. How does anything work in there? That's based on both all the times it did blow up, and that the Maximals pilfered a bunch of key parts?
Nice ending- Let’s all insult and laugh at Predacons' mental state in front of Dinobot some more.
He’s going to kill all of them by the end of this.
