'''Investigating a mysterious race car, Bumblebee gets involved with an illegal underground street racing circuit, which also captures the attention of the Decepticons.'''

==Summary==

[[Image:TFA Velocity Prowl Blade.jpg|thumb|200px|right|Yeah, sure, THIS oughta help her stay calm.]]
On the highways of Detroit, the [[Autobot]]s are driving under the moonlight, searching for an [[AllSpark (Animated)|AllSpark]] fragment. As Bumblebee complains about the boring nature of their task, several cars speed past them. Bulkhead recognizes them as racers for ''[[Street Demon]]'', a show he and Sari watch. Calling them amateurs, Bumblebee decides to show off and speeds ahead. As he boasts, a blue racer comes in and rams two drivers off the road. Bumblebee wants to go after him, while Prime says that the drivers need help. Still, Bumblebee pursues, discovering that the car is quite fast. As the Autobots render assistance, Captain Fanzone arrives and arrests the two drivers. Bulkhead is shocked to learn that the Street Demons are on an illegal racing circuit, while Bumblebee rolls up, transforms, and falls down, breathing heavily...somehow.

Back at the plant, Bumblebee thinks that he can beat the blue racer with his turbo boosters. Prime and Ratchet refuse, and Bumblebee shouts that nothing on Earth is faster than him. This train of thought leads Bumblebee to the conclusion that the blue racer is a Decepticon. Prowl points out that the racer was uninterested in the Autobots, and Prime orders Bumblebee not to use the boosters. Meanwhile, Bulkhead comes down on Sari over ''Street Demon'', but Sari says that they're not helping the illegal show in any way, since she's pirating the signal. As Bulkhead laments about how the Autobots need to set a good example, Bumblebee walks in and smooths things over, saying that he'll straighten out Sari. Once Bulkhead is out of [[Sensors#Audio sensors|audio sensor]] range, Bumblebee has Sari show him the races. He asks her to track down where the broadcast came from, and with the help of the [[Sari Sumdac's key|key]], he finds out where they are.

[[Image:Master_disaster_rig.jpg|thumb|200px|left|Optimus Prime's [[Nemesis Prime (disambiguation)|evil twin brother]], come back for revenge!!]]
At an irrigation channel, Bumblebee, having taken his turbo boosters, joins in a training race, finally getting the hang of his boosters. Seeing what is going on, Master Disaster, the host of ''Street Demon'', uses some sort of remote control to send out the blue racer to attack Bumblebee. Finally getting tired of being attacked, Bumblebee transforms into robot mode, causing Master Disaster to call off the attack. Instead, Disaster invites the Autobot to participate in the next race. Bumblebee agrees, on the condition that blue racer is present. As Bumblebee [[rolls out]], Disaster notes that with an Autobot racing, their ratings will triple...and get even higher if said Autobot were to suffer an "accident".

At the plant, Bulkhead brings Sari a cup of hot chocolate, but Bumblebee calls on her cell phone, revealing his misadventure and allowing Bulkhead to learn what is going on. Before he can further <strike>dig his own grave</strike> elaborate, Bumblebee stops short when he sees a plane{{m-}}Blitzwing. Following the Decepticon, Bumblebee overhears Blitzwing communicate with Megatron about an AllSpark fragment he was tracking. Convinced it involves the blue racer, Bumblebee heads back to the plant. He tells Sari what is going on, only for Bulkhead to come down on Bumblebee for what he's doing. Bumblebee tells him about Blitzwing, the AllSpark fragment, and his suspicions about the blue racer being a Decepticon, insisting that he can only discover the truth if he races. Bulkhead agrees to allow it on the condition that he is brought along as well, but Bumblebee fibs. However, when Sari catches him going out, she forces him to take her...as Bulkhead listens in.

In an interrogation room, Fanzone questions one of the drivers. Using the threat of imprisonment, Fanzone learns that the next race will be at Dix and Vernor, and he intends to get there before the races begins...at which point he walks right into a door.

At the race site, Master Disaster is making the final preparations, when Sari's key glows in the direction of Disaster's truck. Sneaking aboard, she finds the remote, then flees while Disaster announces the two-minute mark. As he reaches for the remote, he discovers what Sari did, forcing Bumblebee and Sari to escape. Thinking the race has started, the other drivers follow. As Bulkhead prepares to roll out and follow them, Blitzwing freezes the Autobot, then flies after the other two. Sari opens the remote and finds the AllSpark fragment, while Bumblebee detects Blitzwing. Seeing the flier, he dives through an arch, which Blitzwing freezes, cutting off the rest of the racers. Failing in his attempts to destroy Bumblebee from above, Blitzwing goes to tank mode, but is buried under rubble when he destroys a bridge support.

[[Image:TFA Velocity Bumblebee Blitzwing Scale.jpg|thumb|200px|right|...kinda one-sided, ain't it.]]
Meanwhile, Bumblebee sees Fanzone's car and tries to reach him. Fanzone is forced to jump into Bumblebee as Blitzwing destroys his car. As Blitzwing continues his strafing, Sari uses the remote to control Blitzwing, but it falls from her hands and out of the car. As they near another bridge, the blue racer crashes through the bridge's retaining wall and plays a game of Midair Chicken with Blitzwing. At first, Blitzwing is prepared to [[Furmanism|fight and die]], but he turns away, crashing first into a building and then into Master Disaster's truck. Bumblebee deposits the two humans on the road, then goes to finish off Blitzwing, despite being vastly outsized and outgunned. Fortunately, the fight has brought them back to where the remote was. However, Blitzwing destroys a bridge above Bumblebee, also freeing Bulkhead. As Blitzwing prepares to deliver the killing blow, Sari uses the remote to control Blitzwing (as well as Bumblebee, who crashes into Bulkhead). Finally, Sari sends Blitzwing into high altitude. As Master Disaster tries to sneak away, Fanzone places him under arrest.

Back at the plant, Prime decides to store the remote in a safe place, while Bumblebee decides to set a better example for Sari{{m-}}starting by ending her pirated satellite connection. As Sari jokingly warns Bumblebee not to set too good of an example (lest she not recognize him), Bumblebee notices the blue racer speed past the plant. Bumblebee shouts out a "thank you", but is left wondering who the blue racer really is.

==Other notes==

===Continuity errors===
* Hothead [[Blitzwing (Animated)|Blitzwing]] demonstrates the ability to function in jet mode, instead of automatically switching to tank mode as he did in "[[Megatron Rising - Part 2]]". His ice missiles are replaced with conventional explosive ones. Maybe he learned his lesson?

===Real-world references===
* Wondering where Bumblebee came from, Master Disaster invokes the name of [[Detroit]] auto mogul Henry Ford (and also calls Bumblebee a "clown car").

*This episode borrows several plot and thematic elements from the popular street racing film ''[[Wikipedia:The Fast and the Furious|The Fast and the Furious]]''.

*Blitzwing's "Never give up! Never surrender! NEVER MIND!" quote refers to the catchphrase from the [[Dreamworks]] film, ''[[Wikipedia:Galaxy Quest|Galaxy Quest]]''.

*Blitzwing haphazardly fires off multiple missiles in all directions in a style reminiscent of the Valkyrie Fighters from ''[[wikipedia:Macross|Super Dimension Fortress Macross]]''.

*In this episode, Blitzwing's cannons make the familiar "high tension cable twang" normally associated with laser cannons in the ''[[Wikipedia:Star Wars|Star Wars]]'' films.

*The first car that passes Bumblebee at the beginning of the episode resembles the 1999 Nissan Skyline From 2003's ''2 Fast 2 Furious''.

===Miscellaneous trivia===
* Fanzone's car explodes. Again. At least we know where he gets the replacements.
* The mysterious blue race car under Master Disaster's control matches the vehicle mode of ''Animated'' [[Blurr (Animated)|Blurr]], as shown in an "upcoming products" presentation at [[BotCon 2008]]. ''Presumably'' it ''is'' Blurr...but as of this episode, its exact nature is unknown. It could be merely an AllSpark-enhanced unliving machine (like those in "[[The Elite Guard]]"), from which Blurr will someday take his [[Earth]]-mode (as Bumblebee did with Fanzone's car). (If it is Blurr, then he either is or will be a member of the Elite Guard, according to the presentation mentioned above.)
*Since coming to live with the Autobots, Sari has not only watched illegal shows, but also stolen satellite signals. [[Isaac Sumdac|Professor Sumdac]] is probably going to have words with the Autobots if they ever find him.

:''Starscream is a [[Decepticon]] in the [[Transformers Animated]] [[continuity family]].''

[[Image:Starscreamanimated.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Specialist skills: backstabbing, aggressive negotiating, chin-stroking.]]

'''Starscream''' is easily as accomplished, powerful and deserving of leadership as Megatron. At least, that's what he thinks. Power-hungry and driven by jealousy, Starscream operates through three ideals: lying, manipulation and deception. And when all else fails, a bit of sabotage never goes astray. [[Megatron (Animated)|Wise bots]] are careful about turning their backs on Starscream, just in case it's the day he finally decides to shove in the knife.

Though not nearly as powerful as Megatron (despite what he thinks of himself), Starcream is by no means a wimp. His null-rays can demolish large buildings, and he can fly around so fast that he can break free of [[Ratchet (Animated)|Ratchet's]] magnetic powers.

He also has the most traitorous chin in the universe, other than Evil Ash. And he doesn't believe in luck.

{{Quote|''Yes!'' Right then. Solemn face, solemn face.|Starscream about to tell the other Decepticons that he is the new leader|"[[Transform and Roll Out!]]"}}

==Fiction==

{{ongoing}}
:''Voice actor:'' [[Tom Kenny]] (English)

Like [[Starscream (disambiguation)|others of his kind]], Starscream seeks to betray [[Megatron (Animated)|Megatron]] and take over leadership of the Decepticons. This time, however, he's not afraid to plant bombs on his mighty leader. In the aftermath of the explosion, Starscream got so caught up in his own greatness that he didn't notice that his comrades abandoned him on a [[Nemesis (Animated)|ship]] hurtling towards an exploding space bridge.

Over the next fifty solar cycles, Starscream searched for the All Spark on his own, using the damaged ship as a base (and probably getting a few screws loose in his [[central processor]]). He later discovered that the [[All Spark (Animated)|All Spark]] was on Earth and adopted a jet fighter as an alternate mode to search for it. When he revealed himself to the Autobots, he quickly thrashed each of them individually. Starscream mocked them, apparently assuming that the Autobots thought ''they'' had really defeated Megatron (whom he referred to as "the great Megatron" without sarcasm, so he seems to have at least a loathing respect for his leader's power). All too boastful of his cunning, Starscream boldly admitted that Megatron was already defeated by the bomb which Starscream himself had put on him. Despite being more powerful than the Autobots, Starscream failed to take the All Spark, partially because he [[Megatron (BW)|spent too much time gloating]]. [[Optimus Prime (Animated)|Optimus Prime]] grabbed Starscream in midair, and they opened the All Spark, releasing a massive wave of energy. Optimus was killed by the energy surge (he got better), but Starscream's fate was unspecified. {{storylink|Transform and Roll Out!}}

After Megatron woke up, he found a tape of Starscream's confession and watched it. His reaction was typical: [[The Transformers: The Movie|"STAAAAARSCREEEEAM!"]] {{storylink|Home Is Where the Spark Is}}

It turns out Starscream had been hiding on Earth this whole time, until he decided to reveal himself to a badly damaged Blitzwing and Lugnut, offering them help in exchange for their loyalty. It also seems that for his skill he never mastered parallel-parking, as evidenced by the wreckage of the ''Nemesis'' on Earth's moon. {{Storylink|Lost and Found (Animated episode)|Lost and Found}}

'Til all are one

2008-02-28T10:12:58Z

218.111.235.213:

{{disambig2|the catchphrase|the music CD set|'Til All Are One (CD)}}

[[Image:RodimusTFMMarvel.jpg|thumb|right|I SAID 'til all are one, grrrrrrr]]

'''"'Til all are one"''' is a phrase knit through [[Transformer]]s mythology and legend, often used as a rallying cry by the [[Autobot]]s. It's been translated as either until the end of the [[Great War]], when all Transformers shed their factional affiliations, or until all are rejoined into the [[Allspark]] of [[Primus]].

==Fiction==
===Generation 1 Animated Continuity===
The phrase was first introduced as [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]]'s deathbed mantra, and it would then be repeated regularly by [[Ultra Magnus (G1)|Ultra Magnus]], [[Hot Rod|Rodimus Prime]], and many of the other Autobots. {{storylink|Transformers: The Animated Movie}}

Having seized the [[Matrix of Leadership]], [[Galvatron (G1)|Galvatron]] gloated that "all shall be one" under his rule. {{storylink|The Burden Hardest to Bear}}

===Beast Wars===
[[Rhinox]] claims that the [[Allspark|Matrix dimension]] is a place "where all are one." {{storylink|Coming of the Fuzors (Part 2)}}

===Beast Machines===
As [[Megatron (BW)|Megatron]] consumed the captured sparks of every Cybertronian, he urged "let us all become one!" {{storylink|Endgame Pt. III: Seeds of the Future}}

===Robots in Disguise===
[[Omega Prime]]'s [[Matrix Blade]] had this phrase written across the hilt.

===Unicron Trilogy===
====Cybertron====
When communicating with the Autobots, [[Primus]] would intone the phrase in reference to their quest to restore his Allspark. Later, when he created the ''[[Ark (Cybertron)|Ark]]'' out of the four cybertronian starships signifying the unity of the Transformers, he said that all were finally one. {{Storylink|End}}

===Dreamwave comics continuity===
[[Image:Ancients.jpg|thumb|right|The Jedi Council has decided not to grant you the rank of master, young Prime.]]
In the [[War Within]], the Autobot [[Council of Ancients]] held court in a chamber embossed with the same logo that had appeared on Omega Prime's sword.

The [[Seal of Primus]] also had 'til all are one written on it.

===IDW comics continuity===
[[Megatron Origin, Part 2|The Megatron Origin]] miniseries shows a much darker use for the phrase. During a gladiatorial death match between Megatron and an unnamed opponent, the crowd begin to chant the phrase, apparently attempting to goad Megatron into finishing off his opponent. It is unknown why the crowd would choose this chant to encourage a gladiator to kill someone. Possibley that one is last mech standing

This IDW series is based on the decline of the Roman empire. The audience are the ones to decide the fate of the defeated gladiator, so they can tell the victor to kill the loser.

The chant may signify the union of Alpha and Omega (begining and end) of a Transformer's life.

===Shattered Glass===
In the [[Shattered Glass]] timeline, a parallel universe, [[Optimus Prime (Timelines)|Optimus Prime]] sports a mocking juxtaposition of the famous saying on his alternate mode, stating "'Til all are gone!"

:''Omega Prime is an [[Autobot]] in the [[Robots in Disguise (franchise)|Robots in Disguise]] [[continuity family]].''
[[Image:Omega Prime official.jpg|thumb|He can get any girl he wants... Even your girlfriend.]]

Due to the greed of [[Ultra Magnus (RiD)|Ultra Magnus]], [[Optimus Prime (RiD)|Optimus Prime]] was forced into a combination with his brother. Ultra Magnus merely wanted the power of the [[Matrix of Leadership]] for himself, thinking that a combination would let him access that power. The result of their combination is '''Omega Prime''', arguable the most powerful character to ever bear the name "Prime", as has easily defeated the entire antagonist cast in [[Robots in Disguise (Cartoon)| Robots in Disguise]] on his own on multiple times.

==Fiction==
===Robots in Disguise cartoon===
[[Image:Omega Prime closeup.jpg|thumb|right|He's neither making a list, nor checking it twice!]]
:''Voice actor:'' [[Daniel Riordan]] (English), ? (Japanese)
During a fight with [[Megatron (RiD)|Megatron]], Optimus was ganged up on by several [[Predacons]] who nearly destroyed him. Ultra Magnus showed after having followed [[Sky-Byte]] via a hidded tracking device. Feigning compassion and understanding his brother's heavy burden in carrying the Matrix, Ultra Magnus pretended to offer Prime his helping hand, only to seize it and force the two of them to combine. What he didn't expect, though, was that Optimus had as much control over their new body as UM did. His plan to steal the power of the Matrix backfired and he had to cooperate with Prime to defeat the Predacons. {{Storylink|Forced Fusion}}

===Universe===
===Fun Publications Cybertron Comic===
Once again, Optimus and Magnus would team up to become Omega Prime. When the twins were abducted by the [[Unicron|Chaos Bringer]] and pitted against his minions, the two combined into Omega Prime in order to fight off the Planet Eater's forces. The fight ended early, as Unicron's physical form was destroyed in another [[universe]], resulting in a [[Unicron Singularity|gigantic black hole]] that threatened to unravel the very fabric of existance. He later stopped [[Nemesis Prime (Universe)|Nemesis Prime]] from using the [[Dead Matrix]] to revive Unicron and destroy [[Primus]].

==Synopsis==

''This first scene takes between the last and second-last scene of the [[Black Sunshine|last issue]]''

[[Image:Jetfireg1dw.jpg|left|thumb|I don't believe in funny jokes about agnostics, but I will as soon as I hear one.]]
Within the [[Nemesis]]. Sunstorm struggles to free himself from a neck-hold in Jetfire's arms while spouting his regular evangelism. Performing a [[Wikipedia: Stunner (professional wrestling)|Stunner]], Sunstorm escapes the hold stands to use his burning touch to incapacitate his opponent. But the attack doesn't work, causing Sunstorm to pause just long enough for Jetfire to use his leg-jets to push Sunstorm away. The two struggle until Jetifre is face-down, and Sunstorm prepares to finish Jetfire with his blasters, but he's caught off guard by Jetfire shooting lasers from the back of his head. With Sunstorm down, Jetfire and Starscream leave while they can.

On board [[the Orion]], Jetfire and Starscream confer with Brawn, Ratchet, and Bumblebee regarding the nature of Sunstorm and how he should be handled. Bumblebee shows a bit of skepticism, which, with agitation from Starscream , almost causes a skirmish. Jetfire however cuts the hostilities and announces that he's deduced a manner of anticipating Sunstorm's destination.

On [[Cybertron]], Prowl attempts to make an address to the public, but is overwhelmed by a barrage of citizens expressing their concerns over various issues. Magnus however intervenes and uses his authority to provide diplomatic assistance.<br>
Afterwards, Prowl, Kup, and Ironhide reflect on the political changes to Cybertron and toss around the idea of leaving Cybertron to the civilians while the soldiers hunt down Decepticons elsewhere.

The [[Earth]]-[[Decepticons]] limp away from The Orion, partially refueled as part of a deal for Starscream's co-operation in recovering the other [[Autobots]] (defeated prior to [[Night of the Combaticons|#1]]) and taking care of Sunstorm. Onboard, Cliffjumper and Brawn debate against Bumper on the justice of the arrangement Bumblebee's made. Overhearing Brawn's side, Bumblebee loses some self-esteem.

Elsewhere on the ship, Starscream whines as Ratchet and Jetfire synthesize a device that will simulate Starscream's [[energy signature]] to misdirect Sunstorm. Jetfire is fascinated by Sunstorm's (a clone) self-repairing capabilities and his ability to manifest great power from a solar-powered fusion reactor without expiring. The plan is developed: Get Sunstorm to over-exert himself and attach the artificial-Starscream to cancel his super-abilities. As soon as this plan is explained, Sunstorm is seen on radar heading towards the Orion.

Bumblebee takes a jet to confront Sunstorm, with three other Autobots wearing jetpacks. Jetfire protests the arrangement, saying that he should be in battle instead of remaining on the [[Orion]] to make sure Starscream doesn't misbehave. But soon after Bumblebee places the first hit against Sunstorm, Sunstorm is able to down Bumblebee's ship with a single blast. With the rest of the Autobots unable to fight, Jetfire abandons his duty and joins the combat.

With Jetfire on the scene, Sunstorm is brought crashing to the ground. Bumblebee takes the opportunity to fine the inhibitor on Sunstorm, who tries to resist the technology's interference. With his systems compromised, Sunstorm rockets away to recover. With Sunstorm gown, Bumbblebee considers the encounter a good job, while Jetfire, his armor disabled, still worries that Sunstorm could be a menace, so he activates his one last hidden card.

In [[Alaska]], Starscream recovers in a cave, and the crippled Sunstorm comes begging for help. But before Starscream can do anything, part of the mountain is collapsed by….

''"Prowl, most'a those empties are still livin' in the past. They're just afraid of too much change too fast…. That's all."''

==Notes of interest==

* Jetfire is seen in a new design, because of the complications surrounding Jetfire's G1 design. This design was eventually translated into toy form in the [[Classics]] line.
*The the name of the issue was borrowed from Jetfire's name on the original television series. This name is now used nowhere else.
* Starscream mentions that the Autobots, or at least Bumblebee, are/is devout followers of [[The Convenant of Primus]].

* Most of the crowd listening to Prowl's address are [[Trainbot|Trainbots]] (left).

* Prowl and the old timers relax by drinking… [[Kremzeek]] (right).
* Kup's consideration of taking the war off of Cybertron is reference to [[War Within]]
*Bumblebee flies into battle in a jet almost identical to his Cybertronian Alt Mode (first seen in [[More Than Meets the Eye, Part 1]] and he wears a face-place making him appear slightly more similar to his G1 toy.

*On the "Prime Transmissions" page, reader mail is answered by [[Dreamwave]] Editor-in-chief [[Roger Lee]]. There's also a fanart of [[Predaking (G1)|Predaking]] submitted by Steven Davis.
*Wavelengths section features an article from the desk of [[Joe Ng]].
