BUMBLEBEE: Previously on Robots In Disguise: OPTIMUS: The time has come to join our mission.

The liberation of Cybertron.

There's one more energy signature aboard
- than there should be.


- I come in peace.

CYCLONUS: Our final triumph is in sight.

You're taking too much pleasure in this, Cyclonus.

OPTIMUS: It has begun.

The Cybertronian invasion of Earth.


( RAPID BEEPS )
CYBERWARP
( OVER PA )
: Your High Council knows what is best.

The galaxy is ours to shape.

CYBERWARP
( OVER PA )
: Your High Council knows what is best Don't move, in the name of the High Council! Listen to us, we're not your enemies.

We're here to help you! You're being mind
-controlled! The High Council knows what is best.

The High Council's turned you all into
- into
- Zombies! You guys know about zombies? Russell showed 'em to me in a movie.

Brains brains I said don't move!
( WEAPONS POWER UP )
Not moving! BOT: Stand down! I'll take custody of these perps.

CYBERWARP
( OVER PA )
: Your High Council knows what is best.

Detective Dropforge, sir! One more step and you're dented, leadhead.

We broke the mind control over Dropforge
( GRUNTS )
Didn't we? CYBERWARP
( OVER PA )
: Optimus' time has passed.

The galaxy The High Council has total confidence in me and the High Council knows what's best.

CYBERWARP
( OVER PA )
: Optimus' time has passed.

The galaxy is ours to shape.

Looks like my bunco game on those stiffs fooled you, huh, Scoot? DROPFORGE: We've pretended to be brainwashed since we got back to Cybertron, trying to get the lowdown on what's really going on here.

Since when do you ride with them? I want the High Council brought down as badly as they do.

We need Steeljaw to get past the High Council chambers' defenses.

What's the story on these glorious leaders, anyway? No one ever heard of these bums before they ran for Council.

It's like they showed up outta nowhere.

This is the Council building.


( CUFFS POWER DOWN )

( GROANS )
I can feel the subsonics.

We'll say you escaped, and try to keep the heat off of you.

I know you'll do me proud, Scoot.

Thank you, sir.

Okay, Steeljaw, time for you to
( GASPS )
He's gone! And wherever he went I'll bet it isn't good for us.


( GATE MOTOR WHIRS )
Did you think I'd abandoned you? I didn't come this far to sit on the sideline.

The subsonics are no longer active.


( CHUCKLES FIENDISHLY )

( HAWK SCREECHES )

( OPTIMUS GROANS )
One of your inventions actually came through, Ratchet! I told you my triage shield worked.


( SHIELD SPUTTERS )
Hey! I needed that! We must continue pursuing the advance force of Cybertronian invaders.

They cannot be allowed to construct a SpaceBridge Receiver! Their signals place them near the coast of Crown City.

Autobots, let's roll!
( JETS HISSING )

( GEARS WHIRRING )

( ENGINES HUMMING )
Bumblebee once told me these docks were largely automated They shouldn't be this quiet
( SCANNER BEEPING )
There's an echo in the signals.

Could be somebot using a lightbender.

I'll recon from above.


( GEARS WHIR, JETS HISS )
The rest of us will fan out.


( DRAMATIC THEME PLAYING )
Hey, uh, team, I'm looking at a loose shipping container.

And half of it isn't there! Might be a lightbender cloaking some of it I'm goin' in.

OPTIMUS
( OVER COMMS )
: We will converge on your position.

Proceed with caution!
( GRUNTS )
Huh?
( GRUNTING )

( MOTOR WHIRRING )
Ugh! Aah! Whoa! Uh, hi, guys.

Uh, sorry I broke your lightbender.

Heh
-heh

( WEAPONS POWER UP )

( JETS HISSING )

( YELLS )
Ugh!
( GRUNTS )
Perfect! They fell right into our trap! Oh, is that what that was?
( WEAPONS f*ring )
Ugh!
( SCRAPING, CLANGING )
Ratchet.


( COMPUTER BEEPS )

( SHIELD POWERING UP )
RATCHET: The repaired triage shield is projected over the area.

It should keep humans from seeing or hearing anything going on here.

Autobots, let's roll!
( GEARS WHIR, ENGINES REV )

( JETS HISSING )

( GASPS )

( HEROIC THEME PLAYING )
Get out of range, Windblade, now!
( OPTIMUS GROANS )

( JETS HISSING )

( WINDBLADE YELLS )

( DRAMATIC THEME PLAYING )
RATCHET: Our air support's been hit! We can't worry about them! Get to the SpaceBridge Receiver!
( GROANS )

( AIR WHISTLING )
Ugh Aah!
( JETS POWER UP )

( WINDBLADE WHOOSHES )
Ugh! Thanks, Optimus These bots brought some serious Prime
-stopping ordnance.

Still, we must get past their defenses.

Everything depends on it.


( GEARS WHIR, JETS POWER UP )
Make your address to the citizens, Cyberwarp.

By the time you're finished, we'll have received the signal to send the invasion force.

These renegade Autobots are so busy with invasion plans, they haven't picked up our signals!
( COMPUTER BEEPING )
Sir, I'm reading lightbender technology in use.


( DRAMATIC THEME PLAYING )

( MACHINE POWERS UP )
Fellow Autobots, this is your High Council.

In moments, we will begin the glorious invasion of Earth.

Earth has long been the source of our troubles We know you are weary of conflict, but but We know you are weary of conflict, friends, but this invasion will ensure millennia of peace for our planet.

Your High Council knows best.

Thank you.

I've rethought my position.

Humans should control their own planet.

You are outvoted.

Skyjack, prepare the signal.


( SUSPENSEFUL THEME PLAYING )

( TERMINAL BEEPING )
They've spotted something A lightbender on that bot's leg! Enough waiting! The receiver should be ready.

Send the signal.


( BEEPING )

( POWERS UP )

( ENGINE ROARS, GEARS WHIR )

( GASPS )
They're opening the portal!
( ELECTRICITY CRACKLING )
Decepticons! They used lightbenders to pose as Autobots so they could take over the Council! We've been breached!
( HEAVY THUDS )
Autobots! Capture them! The intruders won't dare challenge us if we have prisoners!
( SUSPENSEFUL THEME PLAYING )

( CAMERA LENS WHIRRING )
The camera's still running! The whole planet can see those 'Cons! Doesn't matter.

They're still transmitting mind
-control.

One of those machines has to be the transmitter, right?
( GEARS WHIR )

( LOUD, HEAVY THUD )
Let's just smash everything in here!
( METAL SCRAPES )

( GRIMLOCK YELLS )
I was gonna suggest that anyway.

Steeljaw, let's Aw, Scrap! Not again! Fixit! Figure out which console is their transmitter and signal us!

It all comes down to this A challenge! We usurped the High Council so easily, I'd almost forgotten the thrill of facing one! Sweet Solus Prime!
( YELLS )
For Cybertron!
( ELECTRICITY CRACKLES )
Aaarggh!
( METAL SCRAPES )

( GRUNTS )

( STRONGARM WHIMPERS )
Ugh!
( LAUGHS )
It appears the whole is somewhat less than the sum of its parts, Autobots! SIDESWIPE: I'm not the chin of this thing, but still, ow! DRIFT: Unfortunately, this Combiner seems more mentally stable than Menasor.

STRONGARM: Yeah, but we kept our balance! We're in better sync than ever! Stay focused! We need every edge!

RATCHET: The portal What happened to it? The receiver is now accepting the signal from inside the portal, which should lead
( expl*si*n )

( POPPING, WHISTLING )
to considerable feedback.

As long as the portal's destroyed, that's good enough for me!
( DRAMATIC THEME PLAYING )
Ugh!
( BEEPING )

( ALARM SOUNDING )
The SpaceBridge Portal! It's been destroyed! Curse you to the darkest pits!
- Aaarggh!
- Brace yourself, team!
( BOTH GRUNT )

( MOANS SOFTLY )
We sent Steeljaw and his cohorts back to Earth to keep you occupied, but you defeated them! Ugh! Oh, which one, which one? We sent the genetically modified Activators into the Shadow Zone to secure Soundwave's aid and to help free him! Aah! Which one? GRIMLOCK: Hang on, Bee! We can still do this!
( BEEPING )
This is the subliminal transmitter!
( STEELJAW GRUNTS )

( CRACKLING )
There.

The ones who betrayed me stand revealed to all of Cybertron and Earth is once more a world for the winning.

Until we meet again
( YELPS )

( SUSPENSEFUL THEME PLAYING )
GALVATRONUS: Soundwave was to summon Megatron home to lead our conquest, but you foiled him!
( BUMBLEBEE GROANS )

- So we sent Dropforge to occupy you.


- Aah! And we intended to put the Decepticon Empire in place
- for whenever Megatron returned!
- Ugh
- But you've ruined everything.


- Ugh!
( BUMBLEBEE GRUNTS, GROANS )
SIDESWIPE: Don't quit, Bee! Stay in it!

-
( BUMBLEBEE GRUNTING )

- And now you'll pay! Ah! What does it feel like, Autobots? Your spark fading away like the glorious dreams of generations of this planet's rightful rulers!
( STRAINED GRUNTS )

( METAL SCRAPES )
Cyberwarp, what? No! You're one of us, Cyberwarp, don't do this! Aaarggh!
- Ugh!
- Let go!
( LOUD CRASH )
Ugh!
( METAL SCRAPES )

( w*apon CLATTERS )

- STRONGARM: Lieutenant, did we?
- Not just yet, Strongarm
( HEROIC THEME PLAYING )
You've failed, and do you know why? Because Decepticons never stick together and when Autobots work as a team, we can't lose!

Ugh.

( GROANS )

( CHEERING )

( TRIUMPHANT THEME PLAYING )
GRIMLOCK: Well, OP, looks like you and your buddies are heroes again.

Thanks in part to a timely assist from Steeljaw.

And if there are more Decepticons like Cyberwarp, there might be a real chance of peace someday between the two factions.

We can hope, Strongarm.

Meanwhile, for the first time since its rebirth, Cybertron can truly begin anew.

Will you lead that beginning? I am a leader of warriors, not governments.

And I am eager for time away from fighting.

But I will be ready whenever Cybertron needs me.

I can think of none better than you to serve as temporary High Council until free elections can be held.

Optimus, We We'd be honored When do we leave for Earth, sir? But it's all over You're home You're heroes, for Prime's sake! I'm more at home on Earth than Cybertron these days, but why would you want to go back? 'Cause Cybertron is gonna be all boring and happy for a while.

Earth is where the action is! Maybe you should consider Bumblebee and his team to be Cybertron's first ambassadors to Earth.

A fine idea.

And in the meantime, will you continue as Earth's protectors? We wouldn't want it any other way.

DENNY: Sounds like you guys had a heck of a hullabaloo back home! Dad, this is their home.

Right, guys? If you still want us here.

You've been chased, captured and nearly blown up since we first met you.

Yeah, it's been a blast and a half! Sir, if we're staying, we should have a formal chain of command.

What, with you as second in command, I suppose? Oh, oh! Stay right there! I wanna sculpt you two having an argument! Students, Sideswipe and Strongarm are excellent examples of how not to behave when part of a team.

I like your idea, Strongarm! I'll work up a slow mart Glow heart
( CLANG )
Flow chart!
( STEELJAW HOWLS )
Steeljaw? Saved by the howl.

Autobots, let's rev up and roll out!
