Episod-4




Home Is Where the Spark Is


In the middle of the night, an armored truck is loaded and starts driving through Detroit. Atop a nearby rooftop, the Angry Archer takes notice. Firing a harpoon arrow at the roof of the truck, he slides down on top, and then breaks his way into the truck, knocking out the guards and taking the money all with specialized arrows. Seeing the police are chasing him, he latches onto a passing fire truck, thinking he is safe. The truck proceeds to transform into Optimus Prime, who easily defeats the Angry Archer and hands him over to the cops.
The next day, Prowl is shown hanging upside down by a tree, fascinated by a cat stalking a bird. But soon civilians arrive, themselves fascinated by Prowl, and Prowl storms off angrily.Back at the Autobot base, Optimus and the Autobots are fixing up their new home. Ratchet starts complaining about the publicity their getting, but Bumblebee states that he enjoys it. Soon after, Prowl arrives in an obviously frustrated state. Optimus tries to talk to him, and Prowl explains that he likes to enjoy nature, and that he thinks it's a shame that people don't experience it as much. Bumblebee promptly starts razzing of Prowl, who, in turn, promptly leaves. Up at Sumdac tower, Sari is trying to get into her dad's private lab to see him. When she can't get in due to security features, she uses her key, which zaps the console and lets her in. After noting that her dad needs to get out of the lab, she takes him to go get breakfast. But the surge of energy from the key fires into the lab, and activates Megatron's head. He quickly realizes that he has no body, and watches a tape showing Starscream boast to the Autobots that he killed Megatron, and the Optimus holding the AllSpark. Megatron then realizes that he can control equipment in the lab, obviously coming up with a plan to get the AllSpark.
Later on, Sari is bored of listening to her Tutor-Bot, and uses her key to connect to the Autobot's radios and uses it to contact Bumblebee. Her dad then contacts her about his Pocket-Bots (which Megatron had tinkered with). Sari quickly makes excuses to leave, and Isaac notices that one of his Pocket-Bots is missing. The Pocket-Bot, know under Megatron's control, escapes the lab and crawls into Sari's backpack as she leaves to visit the Autobots.
At the Autobot base, Prowl is watching a TV show about butterflies when Bumblebee changes the channel, saying how stillness is boring. Prowl then leaps ontop of Bumblebee, and jumps to the ceiling. Sari then arrives, trying to explain to the Autobots about sleepovers, which they have a hard time understanding. The Pocket-Bot then stealthily leaves Sari's bag and starts scanning the Autobot base. As part of the sleepover, the Autobots are playing a game similar to Twister, which Prowl easily wins, and then leaves, still frustrated by the lack of understanding by his friends.
Using his Pocket-Bot, Megatron scans the whole base without finding the AllSpark. Instead, he decides to kill the Autobots and download the AllSpark's location from them. Meanwhile, Sari is telling a scary story to the Autobots, and uses her key to activate the machinery around them for dramatic effect, culminating in Bumblebee being scared out of his mind. Megatron then uses this idea by making the Pocket-Bot hack into the system, taking control of all the machinery in the base. Robotic lasers, machine guns, cranes and even flamethrowers start attacking Sari and the Autobots as they flee. Prowl heads over to see what's causing the commotion, only to see the Autobots under attack by the machinery, and Ratchet injured by missiles. Bumblebee tries to shut down the machinery, only to be caught by the cranes and thrown onto an assembly line which Bumblebee barely escapes.
Bulkhead tries to smash up the cranes, but Megatron overpowers him with them and he is also thrown onto the assembly line, which has a metallic crusher at the end. Optimus tries to save him by reversing the direction of the assembly line, but he is drawn and latched onto a massive magnet. Prowl tells everyone to get still, but Bumblebee rejects this plan, only to be again tagged by missiles. Prowl explains that the machinery is directed by motion sensors, so everyone should stay still. Sari uses her key to blow up several cranes, which catch fire. Megatron then uses a crane to unlock a gas line. Prowl uses a combination of quick moves and still poses to fake out the motion sensors, but Megatron uses the Pocket-Bot to fire missiles at him, and Prowl is captured by the cranes. He then tells Bumblebee that he is the last one, and needs to shut down the controls. Bumblebee doesn't want to stay still, Prowl tells him he must, and starts directing him when to strike and when to stop. Using this, Bumblebee is able to get to the control panel and destroy it, making all the hostile machinery shut down. Right then, Optimus sees that the fuel tank has been punctured, and gas is headed for the fire.All the Autobots pitch into launch the fuel tank out of the base, which explodes in the sky. Bulkhead then accidentally destroys the Pocket-Bot. Megatron fumes at his defeat, but realizes that it's no big matter.
Instead of mere tampering, he decides to reveal himself to Professor Sumdac. Back at the base, Bumblebee has finally come to appreciate the value of stillness as he and Prowl play futuristic Twister.
