( grunting )

Wait up.

Bumblebee to Fixit, we're in pursuit of Drag Strip.

Scrud. Even in this bog he still has the edge

on us with his Nitro Boosts.

FIXIT: And the artifact he stole from Windblade's cache?

He still has that too.

( groans )

Sideswipe, you hit others when you splash like that, you know.

Oh, I know. Heh.

( yelling )

( groaning )

The swamp just spat on me.

DRIFT: Bogs like this often contain high concentrations

of methane gas, emitted in bubbles.

We must take caution not to ignite them.

( grunting )

Aww, not now.

This is the biggest score of my career.

( grunting )

Sideswipe, early bot catches the 'Con.

This arrest is yours.

( tense theme playing )

( groaning )

Huh? No.

Uh-uh. It can't be.

SIDESWIPE: Ugh. What happened?

DRIFT: I warned you about the methane.

( groans )

STRONGARM: Where am I?

GRIMLOCK: Hey. I can't see anything.

( groans and then gasps )

By the Primes....

Lieutenant, what is it? What do you see?

All right, team, I want you to listen to me.

Don't panic, but it appears that we've somehow

combined into one giant form.

( all screaming )

Whoa, whoa.

Autobots, settle down.

Remain calm, we will figure it out.

Let... Everybody, quiet!

DRIFT: I cannot transform to V-Mode or any other.

SIDESWIPE: This totally rusts.

Am I gonna be stuck to Strongarm forever?

STRONGARM: This isn't exactly a day at the car wash for me, either, punk.

GRIMLOCK: Am I the bottom?

I am, amn't I?

Hey, stop.

Take it easy and nobody move except on my order.

Now, Strongarm, I think you're the right arm.

I'm gonna try to sit us up, then I want you to extend.

Just send the command to your actuators.

( grunting )

( groaning )

Good.

Sideswipe, looks like you're the left arm.

Try to stretch.

( grunting )

SIDESWIPE: Yeah. I'm feeling it.

Okay, now Grimlock, you're the legs.

GRIMLOCK: I knew it.

When I say go, tuck one leg in and bend the other.

Then push up on the tucked leg. That should stand us up.

Go.

- ( grunting ) - Steady.

- Steady. - GRIMLOCK: Am I doing it?

Okay, not so fast.

Sideswipe, we need support.

Drive straight down.

( grunting )

Wow.

I think we're even larger than Optimus.

This feels great.

( Drift clears throat )

Sorry, Drift. You're our weapon, I guess.

- A sword. - I've got you, Drift.

- Sideswipe. - STRONGARM: What are you doing?

( grunting )

( all groaning )

Hey.

I guess the effect is temporary.

So it could happen again? When?

How is it going to trigger if we're not around methane.

I mean, if that's even what did it?

I promise, we'll find some answers.

Ow.

Yeah, ow.

( both scream )

( grunting )

It's a shape-shifting Decepticon, like Pseudo.

- I'll handle him. - Ow.

- Hey. - Stop it.

What'd I ever do to you?

I don't think that's a 'Con, Sideswipe.

I think there's two of you.

Oh, no.

I've had nightmares about this exact thing.

( grunting )

Okay.

When we transformed back,

you must have divided in two somehow.

No way is this glitch part of me.

Which one are you gonna keep? Me, right?

Heh. Why would he keep you when I'm here?

( grunting )

Bumblebee to Fixit, we've experienced some

technical difficulties and lost the Stunticon for now.

Get us back to the Scrapyard.

Careful, okay? You're gonna scratch my paint.

Not if you watch where you're walking, pretty-bot.

Bumblebee, Strongarm, Drift.

Grimlock, Sideswipe,

Sideswipe?

Sideswipe?

Sideswipe? Sideswipe? Sideswipe? Sideswipe?

What happened?

We all somehow combined into a big bot

and then we un-combined and this scrud-heap split off from me.

How do you know you didn't split off from me?

Because the real Sideswipe doesn't whine like a broken v-belt.

Okay, Sideswipeses.

Just go to separate corners until we figure this out.

There's nothing to figure out.

It's obvious I'm me and if you can't see that,

I don't even know why I joined this team.

I'm out of here.

Hey! Put me down, dude. This isn't funny.

It's a little funny.

Come on, buddy, let's go see what's happening over

by Denny's collection of ketchup bottles.

Ahem. I just wanna say,

if you're going to be getting rid of one of us...

No one's getting rid of anyone.

Will you just give us a minute?

Sorry.

No need to say it, Lieutenant.

I'll have theories, tests and possible solutions

for this situation before you know it.

Thank you.

Uh, sir.

Did you really combine into one giant Autobot?

We did.

And we're gonna need some answers about that too.

I presume Drag Strip still has the artifact he stole?

Yes. And what worries me most,

we don't even know what its capabilities are.

( dramatic theme playing )

Hey, old buddy, old pal. Where you been?

What you got there?

Roll aside, mudflap.

I got my ticket to top Lieutenant, that's what I got.

MOTORMASTER: Oh, you do, do you?

Show me.

Hey. Hey, hey, hey, hey.

Watch where you're pointing that thing, why don't you?

( groaning )

( coughs )

A Gravitic Adjuster. Nice.

So nice.

MOTORMASTER: Shut it down, Drag Strip.

Before Wildbreak becomes any more pathetic.

( coughs )

( grunting )

( sighs )

So how about that promotion, boss?

If we control this planet's roads, we control the planet.

I'm sick of these humans and Autobots

getting in our business.

It's time to show 'em we're serious.

( grunting )

Dude, enough already.

I'm not gonna leave the team or go anywhere.

You're definitely not, not until I hear from Bumblebee.

( frustrated grunting )

Since you're in a holding pattern,

maybe now we can talk?

( screaming )

Watch it. The paint, remember?

Listen, the way I figure it,

if we're two halves of the same bot,

that means we need each other.

For now, it's best if we work together until we can be recombined.

All you do is hold me back.

You're like that little voice I hear in my head

telling me not to do everything I wanna do.

Hey. I don't hear it now.

Anyway, why would I wanna recombine with you?

Because you don't wanna sit on Grimlock's lap

for the next couple hundred years.

And I don't want the team to drop me and leave me alone forever.

Wow. Heavy.

Serious damage.

Humans and Autobots.

Now, where could I...?

Huh?

( dramatic theme playing )

DRIFT: We should utilize the main command console to scan

for the Stunticon's energy signature.

It provides a much wider range.

The Lieutenant wants Fixit to put all his resources

into analyzing the combiner effect

and finding a way to reunite Sideswipe.

Unified, Sideswipe is barely tolerable.

Divided, his two sides are...

maddening.

I hope Fixit makes progress quickly.

FIXIT ( over PA ): Attention all personnel.

I think I may have an explanation

for what occurred in the swamp.

I believe the combiner effect may have something to do

with the nuclear radiation to which you were exposed in your desert mission.

Perhaps the combination of the Stunticon's nitro boost

with the methane in the swamp

triggered something in your irradiated cells.

What about the sunshine twins? What made them split?

Uncertain. Sideswipe was closest to the explosion.

The energy from his Decepticon Hunter

may have had something to do with it.

( gasps )

Will you put me...? I need to see if...

Oh, no.

Where is my Decepticon Hunter?

What have you done with it you...

you wimpy half-me?

I didn't do anything with it.

Seriously, Bee. Please don't blame me.

I do not detect the Decepticon Hunter's energy signature.

Could it have been destroyed in the swamp explosion?

Better that than it falling into enemy hands.

Still, that leaves us with only one Decepticon Hunter.

There is not much we can do about it now.

Fixit, this five-into-one transformation.

Could we learn to control it?

Merging into an a Ultra Combiner

could really come in handy on our missions.

We have encountered two Stunticons that combined into one.

It may be a matter of finding out

how to trigger your ability to combine.

Without the use of a potentially

dangerous explosion, preferably. ( computer beeping )

A distress call from an isolated State Trooper station.

They've been struck by a powerful earthquake.

And I'm reading a Stunticon signal in proximity.

This could be related to the artifact they stole.

You two stay here till we can sort out your situation.

Not gonna happen. I want action.

You are not leaving me behind. Are you?

Sir, the Sideswipes might come in handy.

Especially if the Stunticon has Nitro-Boost capability.

Fair point. You can both come.

But no bickering,

or you're getting Ground Bridged straight back here.

Let's rev up and roll out.

( dramatic theme playing )

Don't get in my way out there.

Or make me look bad.

You don't need any help with that.

( chuckles )

- Was a good one, right? - Hey.

SOUNDWAVE: Report on your mission.

I am more than half-way to the power I need.

Return.

( laughing )

It don't pay to mess with the Stunticons, squishies.

And with this doohickey,

I could maybe take out the chief.

Forget top lieutenant, I could be my own boss.

Scrud. He's using a Gravitic Adjuster.

Those troopers are doomed.

Unless we give him something else to shoot at.

Drag Strip, lower that device and raise your arms.

Yeah, that's what I'll do.

Strongarm, Sideswipeses. Get to the Station.

Make sure there's no one down there that needs help.

We'll deal with Drag Strip.

( Dive grunting )

What am I? Some kind of Rescue Bot?

How do I know you'll still be here when I get back?

I'm gonna roll you down that hill.

I'd like to see you try.

Do what she says.

You know we don't like it when she gets angry.

Dude, she doesn't need to know that.

Keep quiet or I'll knock your engine block off.

( intense theme playing )

Sneaking up on helpless me?

Oh, wait, I'm not helpless.

( groaning )

( grunting )

Teamie. Hang on, I'm coming.

( grunting )

Aww. How embarrassing.

( grunting )

( groans )

So long, law-bot.

See you at the center of the planet.

( groaning )

I could find someone to help me make more of these.

Then I could sell them to other Decepticons.

I'd make a fortune.

( sighs )

There's gotta be something, something...

Ah-ha!

( grunting )

Come to Dino. Yeah!

Who's the Dino? I'm the Dino.

( grunts )

( groans )

Blast you, Dinobot.

( growls )

Get after him. Let's rev up and, ugh,

just lie here.

There's no humans here.

This is a waste of time.

I'm going up to join the fight.

We haven't searched everywhere yet, like we were ordered.

I don't need you telling me...

( grunting )

See? You do need me.

Uh, I would've dodged that.

You wouldn't have and you know it.

You can't be your best you without me

and if I'm always trying to keep you out of danger,

- I can't... - Yeah, yeah, I get it.

I'm not saying you're right.

But maybe you're not wrong.

The building's clear of humans.

Now let's... Ugh!

Strongarm!

( all grunting )

There's my little meal ticket.

( grunting )

Too easy.

( groaning )

The fall must've messed up the aiming system.

That's okay.

I'll just finish them off up close.

He's gonna flatten Strongarm.

You won't get two steps before he flattens you.

Fine.

So what do we do, Brain-Bot?

I'll start with the easy one first.

W-SWIPE: Don't do it!

Wait a minute, where's the other you?

He... He left.

I had a plan and he didn't want to try it,

said he was sick of us and just zoomed off.

He left me here all alone.

Before I joined this team, I was always alone

and I hated it.

Stay back.

Maybe I could join you Stunticons?

I can do stunts.

I warned you.

( yelps )

( dramatic theme playing )

( grunts )

( groans )

You saved me.

Well, I couldn't just let you get slagged.

I might need you sometime.

Good, you've got the Gravitic Adjuster.

I'll tell you how to rewire it to reverse its effects.

Wait. How did you beat Drag Strip?

We worked together.

Don't tell anyone, okay?

BUMBLEBEE: If this re-merge process works, could it prevent us

from turning into the Ultra Combiner again?

Or could it help us to become him?

Both possibilities are intriguing.

I'll definitely run more tests.

Fixit. How do we know this recombination attempt

won't make, ugh,

four Sideswipes?

Or, um, none?

Knowing you, I'd still hear your voice

in my audio receptors.

Rest easy, everyone,

I ran one hundred simulations of what we're about to do.

In how many did it succeed?

Well, 12.

BOTH: Twelve?

( suspenseful theme playing )

( both yelling )

Sideswipe!

Scans confirm a single,

full-strength Sideswipe energy signature.

Whew. Ugh.

Have I got a cranial ache.

As long as you're okay, Sideswipe.

And if there's a part of you that's still worried

about getting dropped from the team, well,

you tell that part it's never gonna happen.

Glad to have you back in one piece.

Me too.

I don't need to be yelling at myself all the time.

That's what I got Strongarm for.
