00:00 It is paramount that we recover the final four Iacon relics.
00:06 The Omega Keys.
00:07 Keys?
00:08 To what?
00:10 The regeneration of our home planet.
00:13 A tomb, one known to contain the remains of primes.
00:18 At long last, the power of the primes belongs to me.
00:26 Four sets of coordinates from Alpha Trion remain encrypted.
00:31 It is logical to conclude that each corresponds to the location of one of the Omega Keys.
00:38 My first creation, fashioned from the very blood of Unicron.
00:42 I call it the Dark Star Saber.
00:46 The relic, now.
00:48 Oh, you mean this?
00:51 Here's Keepers.
01:10 You should have seen Optimus Prime's face when his precious Star Saber shattered like
01:16 glass.
01:17 And with it, his dreams of an Autobot victory.
01:22 Granted, Optimus will be more determined than ever to discover the locations of the remaining
01:28 Iacon entries before we can.
01:32 Ah, very good.
01:37 I see you have decoded the next set of coordinates.
01:44 Way to step things up, Soundwave.
01:47 I do hope this Iacon relic is something less sacred and more profane.
01:53 Like an Electro Disruptor Cannon.
01:56 We could use one of those.
01:58 Indeed, Knockout.
02:01 Dreadwing, report to the bridge immediately.
02:05 Please, Lord Megatron.
02:07 Allow me the honor of retrieving this relic for you.
02:11 I'm surprised you would risk your finish so soon after your accident.
02:19 Nonetheless, I remain unconvinced that you are the best choice for the task, since you
02:26 failed to secure the Phase Shifter.
02:30 I lacked the proper tools, but since Soundwave's currently occupied, I can't imagine he'll
02:37 mind if I borrow this so that I might better secure your prize and heap some hurt on the
02:46 Autobots.
02:47 I'll be sure to do my best.
03:13 Thank you, Soundwave.
03:40 I'm gonna be a great warrior someday.
03:53 Like Optimus.
03:54 Well, train hard and gain some wisdom along the way and I'm sure it'll happen.
03:59 Oh, it will.
04:00 It's my destiny.
04:01 How so?
04:02 Well, one minute I'm on security detail at Iacon, the next I wake up on the other side
04:10 of the galaxy to find myself under Optimus' command.
04:13 I mean, what are the chances, right?
04:16 Things happen for a reason.
04:18 We get it, Smokescreen.
04:20 You're special, we're lucky to have you.
04:23 All I'm really saying is, I've come a long way and this is one opportunity I don't plan
04:28 on messing up.
04:30 Autobots, the next Iacon coordinates have been decoded.
04:36 Ratchet, ready the ground bridge.
04:41 Last one to the Omega Key has to scrub the Energon tanks for a week.
04:47 Didn't know we were keeping score.
04:50 Arcee, Bumblebee, prepare to roll out.
04:55 Wait, what about me?
05:00 Huh?
05:01 I mean, me and Bald Head.
05:04 The two of you will remain here in the event I am able to decode a subsequent database
05:09 entry before the others return.
05:13 Optimus is right.
05:15 Considering the very fate of Cybertron is at stake, response time is critical.
05:21 Keep your engines idling, kid.
05:25 Come on, B. Destiny awaits.
05:29 We call it a pit stop.
05:41 We'll get back in the race.
05:47 Over there.
05:59 Well, well.
06:07 Just the Autobots I wanted to see.
06:10 I'll handle the mad doctor.
06:13 You grab the key.
06:15 I've been waiting to thank you both for all the memories.
06:24 Who knew that sound waves could be such a knockout?
06:45 What's that, dear?
06:49 I can't hear you.
06:50 B, the relics!
06:51 How low can it go?
06:56 Tough, Woffa.
06:59 I've got you now.
07:05 I'm going to have to get you out of here.
07:33 Scrap.
07:40 It appears identical to the one taken from me by Optimus Prime.
07:55 Ah, perhaps it is a decoy the Autobots allowed you to seize as a means of sabotage.
08:04 Unlikely, my liege.
08:07 They battled too desperately for it.
08:09 Then pieces of a larger puzzle, perhaps.
08:17 Excellent sound wave.
08:18 With any luck, these new coordinates will shed some light on the subject.
08:23 Sound waves on fire.
08:26 And so am I.
08:27 Keep your vanity in check, Doctor.
08:32 Haven't I proven myself?
08:35 Your scientific expertise remains of greater use to me, analyzing our latest acquisition.
08:43 I must know what this relic is, and what it can do.
09:03 I'm sorry, Optimus.
09:05 Knockout was there, waiting for us.
09:09 Seems the Khans are improving their decoding skills.
09:12 And it seems that with two keys already separated, no one currently possesses the means to revive
09:20 Cybertron.
09:21 While our quest to restore our planet may have reached a stalemate, securing the remaining
09:28 keys is still the most prudent course of action.
09:32 Man, it must have been crazy with Knockout going all Sonic.
09:36 I wish I'd been there.
09:38 I would have...
09:39 Would have what?
09:40 Recovered the key like you did the first one?
09:42 Maybe.
09:43 Who knows?
09:44 I just want us to be firing on all cylinders.
09:48 You know, now that the Star Saber's gone.
09:49 And I have a pretty good track record so far.
09:56 Look, kid.
10:05 Arcee and Bumblebee are no slouches.
10:08 And Optimus managed just fine for eons without the big sword.
10:12 Of course you wouldn't know about that.
10:15 You've been locked in stasis the whole time we've been fighting this war.
10:19 Exactly.
10:20 And I'm ready to make up for lost time.
10:23 When Optimus says you're ready, you gotta be in this for the long haul.
10:31 Slow and steady wins the race.
10:38 Hurry up already!
10:54 How is it possible that speed-enhancing energon takes longer to process than regular energon?
11:14 An entire chunk of red energon and this is all I get?
11:21 There's enough here for one dose.
11:24 Maybe two!
11:26 Hmm.
11:27 Decepticon movement.
11:29 While speed is hardly a suitable replacement for the might of the Apex Armor, it should
11:39 provide me with enough of an edge to obtain a more formidable relic.
11:48 The next coordinates are ready.
11:51 There remains one set left to decode.
11:54 On it, boss.
11:58 I'm gonna bring back that key.
12:04 Uh, Bulk?
12:10 Forgetting something?
12:19 Make sure you keep an eye on Destiny's Child, okay?
12:26 Compared to watching Miko?
12:28 Piece of cake.
12:29 Stick to the plan.
12:30 Stick close.
12:51 Stay focused.
12:52 Gotcha.
12:53 I mean it.
12:57 Me too.
12:58 I'm gonna go get the key.
13:00 Shh.
13:01 What is that?
13:02 One of the last sounds that you will ever hear, Dreadwing.
13:03 SQUELCH!
13:04 I'm gonna go get the key.
13:31 We gotta get out of here.
13:59 I'm gonna go get the key.

14:18 I'm gonna go get the key.
14:19 I'm gonna go get the key.
14:20 I'm gonna go get the key.
14:21 I'm gonna go get the key.
14:22 I'm gonna go get the key.
14:23 I'm gonna go get the key.

14:31 I'm gonna go get the key.
14:32 I'm gonna go get the key.
14:33 I'm gonna go get the key.
14:34 I'm gonna go get the key.
14:35 I'm gonna go get the key.
14:36 I'm gonna go get the key.
14:37 I'm gonna go get the key.
14:38 I'm gonna go get the key.
14:39 I'm gonna go get the key.
14:40 I'm gonna go get the key.
14:41 I'm gonna go get the key.
14:42 I'm gonna go get the key.
14:43 I'm gonna go get the key.
14:45 You're doing your dirty work from a distance, don't you?
14:46 Too bad you don't have the ball bearings to fight up close and personal.
14:51 In this particular case, I will be all too happy to make an exception.
14:58 [Screaming]
15:02 [Screaming]
15:05 [Screaming]
15:09 [Screaming]
15:13 [Screaming]
15:17 [Screaming]
15:21 [Screaming]
15:25 [Screaming]
15:30 [Screaming]
15:33 [Screaming]
15:39 [Screaming]
15:44 An admirable effort, but you obviously forgot how our last encounter ended.
15:59 No, I didn't.
16:01 [Alarm beeping]
16:04 [Explosion]
16:16 [Explosion]
16:19 [Explosion]
16:24 [Explosion]
16:27 Smoke, I'm on my way.
16:38 [Alarm beeping]
16:41 [Explosion]
16:44 [Alarm beeping]
16:58 Destiny.
17:06 [Explosion]
17:11 [Footsteps]
17:14 Smoke screen, wake up.
17:20 What happened?
17:24 That's what I want to know.
17:27 The Omega Key.
17:30 I had it, until something hit me from behind.
17:36 Dreadwing must have had backup. That relic's long gone.
17:41 Ratchet, we need a bridge.
17:44 I told Optimus I'd return with that key.
17:48 [Explosion]
17:52 Listen, kid. Alpha Trion said we need all four keys to restore Cybertron, remember?
17:59 We just need to hang on to the one we have and find a way to get the others back from Megatron.
18:06 The promise of a new Cybertron in the palm of my hand.
18:17 When I obtain all four.
18:23 [Explosion]
18:26 [Alarm beeping]
18:32 Smoke screen was sucker punched. Could have happened to any of us.
18:39 But it didn't. Because I was the one who dropped his guard. I was the one who blew it.
18:45 Some great warrior I'm turning out to be.
18:49 You still don't get it, do you? A couple of victories aren't going to make you a legend.
18:54 And not every mission results in success. Not for me, not for Bea, not even for Optimus.
19:01 We've gained relics and we've lost some. We've also lost friends. We've even lost a world.
19:08 But this is one time we get a do-over.
19:11 We have a chance to bring back Cybertron. And everyone in this room needs to be in sync.
19:18 This isn't about you or your destiny.
19:23 Arcee, you've made your point.
19:27 Optimus, he needs to hear this.
19:30 You might actually become a great warrior one day. And I sincerely hope that you do.
19:36 But greatness begins and ends with putting the team first. Not your personal scorecard.
19:42 There's nothing I wouldn't do for you guys.
19:45 And stop trying to be a hero and start being an Autobot.
19:50 You know what? Maybe I'm just not good enough.
19:59 Next time Optimus advises you to stop, perhaps you should listen.
20:09 I'll bring him back.
20:12 Smokescreen is young, Vol'Kad, and has much to learn.
20:16 But right now, he needs to clear his thoughts.
20:20 And I need to finish decoding the final Iacon entry.
20:24 You never even spied the relic?
20:36 By the time I reached the location, it was gone. As were the Autobots.
20:42 It would serve us well to not only decode the final Iacon entry before Optimus Prime does,
20:49 but to recapture those relics currently held by the Autobots.
20:54 Soundwave!
20:56 Despite your primary task, I trust that you have been making progress pinpointing the location of their base.
21:06 [BEEPING]
21:11 Good. Given the recent accumulation of evidence, we possess a clearer idea of where their human colleagues reside.
21:21 Laserbeak should soon determine whether the Autobots dwell in proximity.
21:27 [BEEPING]
21:35 Ah, the final entry has been decoded.
21:40 Has it?
21:44 Hmm, perhaps it's a layer of secondary encryption.
21:52 The coordinates are forming an image.
22:00 Why would the final Iacon entry be different from the others?
22:05 Maybe it's a picture of the relic.
22:12 Of what possible use could that be to us without knowing its location?
22:17 I trust that Alpha Trion had his reasons.
22:21 [BEEPING]
22:29 Smokescreen?
22:32 Prime's latest recruit is the final relic of Iacon.
22:39 Is this that hotshot's idea of a joke?
22:43 [BEEPING]
22:45 Maybe he knows where the key is.
22:47 And never bothered to mention it?
22:50 A more likely possibility is that Smokescreen himself somehow is the key without knowing it.
22:58 Whatever the case, he could be in grave danger.
23:02 Smokescreen, return to base immediately.
23:06 He may have deactivated his comm link.
23:13 Locate his position and prepare the ground bridge.
23:18 [BEEPING]
23:23 It seems our side project is already paying off.
23:41 [BEEPING]
23:44 You picked the wrong day to mess with me, Khan.
24:06 [GROANING]
24:09 Smokescreen.
24:33 [BEEPING]
24:36 Now!
