*When [[Waspinator]] is driven temporarily insane, he babbles that his name is [[Shrapnel]], an Insecticon from the [[Generation 1]] [[continuity family]]. Stuck like this for the rest of the episode, he proceeds to stutter and repeat words, in a semi-accurate reference to the distinctive speech pattern that Shrapnel had in the G1 cartoon, which saw him repeat the last word of his sentences.

===Real-World References===
*Immediately follwing saying that he is Shrapnel, Waspinator claims that he is "Wonko! Wonko the Sane!" and salutes the audience. In addition to being a fictional character created by the sci-fi comedy author [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Douglas_Adams Douglas Adams], it is a tribute to transfan [[Ben Yee]], who's online username was Wonko the Sane at the time.

Beast Wars (Part 2)

2007-04-01T14:40:17Z

65.34.116.101:

'''Writers:''' [[Bob Forward]]

'''Summary:''' After a battle between [[Optimus Primal (BW)|Optimus]] and [[Dinobot (BW)|Dinobot]], a huge cache of Energon is discovered.

'''Major Characters (in order of appearance):''' Optimus Primal, Dinobot, Rattrap, Megatron

'''Minor Characters (in order of appearance):''' Characters

'''Original Air Date:''' September 17, 1996

==Summary==
...The fight between [[Optimus Primal]] and [[Dinobot (BW)]] breaks out just as the Predacons attack. Primal falls, but is rescued by Dinobot. He confesses that Primal slipped, and the fight would not be honorable. As they continue to fight, both fall, but are rescued by [[Rhinox]]. Primal sees that Dinobot is trustworthy, and allows him to join the Maximal ranks.

The gunfire on the conflict flies far in the distance, striking a mountain and unveiling a massive [[energon]] cache, giving them all the power either team would need to return home - and, in [[Megatron (BW)|Megatron]]'s case, start the Great War again.

Both teams rush to the site, and begin to fight - but in Beast Modes. The massive energon exposure would render their robot modes in stasis lock in moments if they attempted to transform. Megatron, seeing the fight is lost, opens fire on Primal. Dinobot diverts the missile fired, saving Primal but causing a massive chain reaction in the mountainside. Both teams quickly flee.

As the Maximals leave, Dinobot explains that he owed Primal his life, and that his actions made them even. Primal proclaims that the Beast Wars have begun.

==Notes==
===Technical/Animation Glitches===
* Waspinator's bee-stripes on his thighs are mapped along the wrong axis.

* Often, when the 'Energon mountain' appears in the distance, a large piece of energon in the foreground clips and flickers, making it appear as though the energon is appearing and disappearing at random.

===Continuity Errors===
* After the energon mountain explodes and the Maximals are seen ducking for cover, every shot where Optimus Primal and Dinobot are in the foreground do not feature any of the other Maximals in the background, even though they were seen standing behind the pair moments earlier, and both Rattrap and Rhinox are seen when Rattrap thinks they have won. Oddly enough, Cheetor is no longer in the scene.

* The very same scene features a lot of rubble from the destroyed mountain in close ups of Rattrap and Rhinox, but relatively little rubble when Optimus Primal and Dinobot are in the foreground.
