Nightra claims Blastwave escaped from Trypticon Prison. Strongarm's recollection of their time on Cybertron shows the pair walking among the statues of the Thirteen originally seen back in " Pilot (Part 1)". Nightra mentions Dropforge, previously established as one of Strongarm's teachers in " Get a Clue". Bumblebee gets to shoot a Big Honkin' Space Gun. "Okay, just for the record, this is crazy, and dangerous, and we should never, ever try this at home. Soundwave believes in strict severance clauses. YOU WILL BE TERMINATED AT THE EARLIEST OPPORTUNITY." "Earth has made you really, really weird, Regs. Or it would be, if Cybertronians had middle names." Grabbing the control chip to disable the console, Nightra cloaks and uses her Light Bender's decoy function to get the drop on Strongarm. She rapidly realizes that Blastwave's the bounty hunter and Nightra's the criminal. Strongarm reaches the bridge to find Nightra sealing off the cargo bay and starting the jettison procedure. Blastwave uses Cybertronian Sign Language to give an explanation as he can't speak (much to Bumblebee's shock, then sympathy). The others manage to get Blastwave trapped in a forcefield, only to quickly realize he's actually an Autobot. While they have him busy, Nightra again flees, and Strongarm goes after her. Up in orbit, Blastwave is preparing to secure Nightra when the Autobots board his ship. The team returns to the scrapyard, where Bumblebee starts breaking out the weapons from Windblade's caches, though he draws the line at Sideswipe taking an energon bazooka. Bumblebee contacts Fixit, who believes he can get the team onto Blastwave's ship. Strongarm is tossed aside when she tries to intervene, and Blastwave disappears with his quarry. As they try to head somewhere more private, Blastwave again appears through a portal and grabs Nightra. Nightra decloaks, claiming she was trying to draw Blastwave away from the scrapyard. They trace her signal to the Crown City Colossus and evacuate the car park. Strongarm decides to act on a hunch, heading for Crown City as Nightra used to lose herself in a crowd when she got into trouble. Fixit reports that he did manage to get a fix on Blastwave's ship in orbit. While Fixit works on shutting down the GroundBridge portal, the others attempt to battle Blastwave, but he tosses them around before departing through the portal again. Grimlock tackles him before he can fire on Nightra, who immediately flees. 
Nightra expresses her doubt that Blastwave will even show, moments before a GroundBridge opens and Blastwave steps out. If he survived the freezing process, that is."īack in the scrapyard, Bumblebee is put out that Strongarm didn't check with him first, but agrees to help her. The frightened Mini-Con flees, with Soundwave threatening to terminate him. The Mini-Con opens a GroundBridge portal to Soundwave, who berates him for failing to secure the Decepticon Hunter and commands him to return. Strongarm manages to cut her off, and Nightra reveals she's on edge because one of her former collars, Blastwave, escaped from Trypticon Prison and is looking for her. The Mini-Con tries to surreptitiously snatch Strongarm's Decepticon Hunter, but disturbs some birds, and Nightra flees when she hears the commotion. Nightra says that after that, she turned her life around and became a bounty hunter.
Called before the proctors, Strongarm refused to lie under questioning, resulting in Nightra being expelled from the Academy. She recalls how during their Academy days, Nightra revealed she'd cheated on a test by stealing a keyfile, and tried to persuade Strongarm to cover for her. Strongarm cuts the reminiscing short to ask what Nightra's really doing there. The two friends patrol down a forest road, unaware they're being watched by a Mini-Con.
