'''Bumblebee pays the Rescue Bots a visit just in time to help investigate a mysterious meteor.'''

==Synopsis==
[[Cody Burns]] and the [[Rescue Bot]]s are engaging in a spot of star gazing when they spot a shooting star. As they watch, the meteor crashes on nearby [[Wayward Island]]. The next day the Bots and the Burns family arrive on the island to investigate. As they move through the fog-enshrouded woods, they become aware that there's someone else out there. Luckily it turns out to be a friend—[[Bumblebee (Prime)|Bumblebee]]! [[Blades (RB)|Blades]] is particularly excited to meet the [[Autobot]], who was tracking the meteor and decided to visit the Rescue Bots.

While Blades and [[Dani Burns|Dani]] take to the air, the others spread out to find the meteorite. Blades is too excited to avoid hitting tree tops, but when Dani reminds him of their mission, he points out where the meteorite has landed. [[Heatwave (RB)|Heatwave]], [[Chase (RB)|Chase]] and [[Boulder]] check out the rock for radiation before giving the all-clear for the humans to approach it. Meanwhile, Blades tries to drop his hook so Bumblebee can ride on it, and ends up getting caught on a tree, requiring a rescue by Bumblebee. Blades is chagrined.

The other Bots have finished putting out fires and making sure the meteor is safe, so everyone heads back to the boat where Bumblebee asks to use their comm screen to contact [[Optimus Prime (Prime)|Optimus Prime]] once they get back to the fire station. Optimus is glad the meteorite is safe and instructs Bumblebee to stay with the Rescue Bots for a few days to gain experience. Though everyone is excited to have Bumblebee around, [[Charlie Burns|Chief Burns]] alerts them to an emergency—a retaining wall is nearing collapse, endangering houses. Bumblebee and Cody monitor things from the station, but partway through the operation, Boulder, Heatwave and Chase abruptly [[transformation|transform]] to [[alternate mode|vehicle mode]] and can't change back. Blades is left propping up the wall by himself, at least until Bumblebee roars up and helps. The three stricken Autobots find they can't even drive by themselves, and have to be driven back to the fire station, and on the way they suddenly lose the ability to communicate.

Cody realizes the meteor is to blame, and they contact Optimus again. He passes the information on to [[Ratchet (Prime)|the medic]], who points out the Rescue Bots' ship has an antidote in it, provided they can get a sample of the meteorite and work out which one to use. Also, he instructs them to destroy the meteorite.

With the three Bots now becoming covered in goop, the Burns family launches another mission to Wayward Island, and Bumblebee insists on coming along. The seas are rough, and as they approach the island, the ''[[Darby Eva]]'' hits rocks. [[Graham Burns|Graham]] is knocked overboard. Bumblebee drives in to save him, and manages to get him to catch onto a rope, but in the process sinks into an undersea trench. Blades heads out from the fire station to lend a hand while the Burnses find they have two more problems—the boat's engine won't start, and the bomb they brought to deal with the meteorite has activated. They have four minutes before it explodes, and it can't be switched off.

Blades arrives and successfully fishes Bumblebee out of the ocean. The pair grab the bomb and head towards the island where Bumblebee punches a hole in the meteorite and sticks the bomb in. As it explodes, the two Bots return to the ''Darby Eva'' where they fall victim to the virus. Fortunately Bumblebee picked up a sample of the meteorite, which the humans analyze using tech from the Rescue Bots' ship. They're soon able to use the correct antidote to cure the five Bots. Before Bumblebee leaves, Dani takes pictures of them all together and to Blades's surprise, the yellow Autobot requests a picture with him.
