[[Image:Frankie Greene profile.jpg|thumb|250px|]]

'''Francine Elma "Frankie" Greene''' is the daughter of [[Doc Greene]]. She is strong-willed and independent, and won't hesitate to speak her mind if something's obviously wrong. Frankie and [[Cody Burns]] are firm friends, though she is the smarter of the two, and often finds herself humoring her friend when he gets the notion to do something dangerous. They'll probably end up married someday. She prefers [[dinosaur (dinosaur)|dinosaurs]] to [[Autobot|robots]].

Francine attended the dedication ceremony for the town's new [[Rescue Bot|robotic rescue team]] with her father. She called [[Cody Burns]] over to where they were, but proceeded to be too interested in the new robot dinosaur exhibit at the [[Griffin Rock natural history museum|museum]] to pay any attention to the new robots. Later on, when one of the robot dinosaurs got loose, Cody rang her for advice on how to deal with it. {{storylink|Family of Heroes}}

[[Image:AlienInvasion Frankie is suspicious.jpg|left|270px|thumb]]
Frankie looked forward to riding on her dad's float in the [[Lobster and Technology Festival]] parade. She watched in alarm as her father had to be rescued from a runaway helium balloon. The next day she was in the parade when the festival was attacked by [[flobster]]s. While she attempted to fend them off with a kitchen implement, they were attracted to the starfish design on her jacket and chased her into a phone box. She had to call Cody for help and was soon rescued by [[Heatwave (RB)|Heatwave]]. {{storylink|Flobsters on Parade}} She was impressed by the [[SETI]] dish her father built for [[Huxley Prescott]]. When the dish had to be destroyed by the Burns family robots, she became suspicious that they were altogether too sophisticated. {{storylink|The Alien Invasion of Griffin Rock}}

To celebrate [[Earth Day]], Frankie and Cody visited the [[Griffin Rock Zoo|zoo]]. Frankie was most interested in the lemurs, trained to sort recyclable waste. She later saved Cody from an [[Whiskers|escaped lion]] by using her forcefield bracelet. {{storylink|Walk on the Wild Side}} Out walking [[Edison]] and [[Aristotle]], Frankie lost control of the dogs when Cody's go-kart [[Rolling Thunder]] backfired. Luckily they were stopped from running into traffic by [[Boulder]]. When Cody later asked for something to soup up Rolling Thunder, Frankie gave him some nanites and rang emergency services. She later found the nanites weren't in the lab's official inventory. {{Storylink|Cody on Patrol}}

When Cody wanted to try the [[Turbo Cycle (RB)|Turbo Cycle]], Frankie challenged him to prove he was responsible enough by taking care of the [[Robo-Baby]] while she and her father visited the mainland. To her surprise, he managed to succeed. {{storylink|Four Bots and a Baby}} Frankie and Cody sold lemonade during a heatwave, but when Cody got the idea of engineering a showfall, Frankie was more interested in enjoying Summer at the river. When the weather machine went out of control, Frankie found she enjoyed the iced-over river, at least until it thawed and she was left heading downriver on a piece of ice. Fortunately she was saved by Boulder. {{storylink|Christmas in July}} Frankie and her father joined the Burns family for a barbeque and basketball game. {{storylink|Deep Trouble}}

[[Image:ReturnDinoBot Frankie sits on Trex.jpg|right|350px|thumb|That's right, it's a dinosaur ''and'' a robot. That's doubly cool.]]
Frankie enjoyed having [[Trex]] as a robot butler, and taught him to fetch coffee for her father. When the robot dinosaur was infected with a virus and passed it on to the Griffin Rock mainframe, Frankie risked her life to make sure the disinfection of the mainframe completed. {{storylink|Return of the Dino Bot}} She and Doc Greene were forced to stay at [[Neederlander|Mrs Neederlander]]'s bed and breakfast after he was fired from his position as lead scientist. When [[Thaddeus Morocco|Doctor Morocco]] showed up in town, Frankie disapproved of Prescott's biased reporting. She and Doc Greene were in the [[solar car]] when it went out of control, and they had to be rescued by the Rescue Bots. {{storylink|The Other Doctor}} With Greene preparing to leave the island, Frankie and Cody sneaked into the lab, only to find that Frankie's password to the computer had been disabled. Morocco found them, and they fled from the [[MorBot]] to Morocco's airship. Frankie spotted that the onboard computer contained incriminating evidence, and downloaded it onto a memory stick while Cody landed the ship. The evidence later got Doc Greene and the Rescue Bots reinstated. {{storylink|The Reign of Morocco}}

[[Image:YouveBeenSquilshed Frankie gets squilshed.jpg|thumb|left|250px]]
Doc Greene and Frankie gave a demonstration of technology at the [[Hall of Inspiration]], with Frankie showing off the [[Camera Gloves]]. She later helped her father fix the [[Minimizer]] when the device was damaged. {{storylink|Small Blessings}} Frankie helped Cody dig up a film reel made by [[Anna Baranova|Professor Anna Baranova]]. After the Professor was rescued from her crashed laboratory, Frankie noted that Doc Greene seemed to have taken a shine to her. {{storylink|The Griffin Rock Triangle}} Frankie helped her father test out [[Squilsh]] by performing impact tests on it (i.e. throwing it at things). When a sample came to life and started eating things, she tried to help her father work out a way to stop it. {{storylink|You've Been Squilshed}}

While they were conducting an inventory of the archive, Frankie's father disappeared and she was pursued by a number of small bug-like creatures. After being rescued by [[Blades (RB)|Blades]], she went with the Burns family back to the fire station, where they learned that the [[Tracer (RB)|tracers]] were part of the [[Sanctuary Plan]]. Frankie and Cody went to the laboratory where Frankie called up the file before being teleported by the bugs to a cavern under Griffin Rock. While they were ultimately rescued from there by the Rescue Bots, Frankie made Cody promise not to tell anyone she was afraid of the dark. {{storylink|Countdown (RB)|Countdown}}

[[Image:ShakeUp Frankie's music video.jpg|thumb|right|280px]]
When a ghost was reported, Frankie decided it was a perfect time to try out the [[Spectral Vapor Filter]] her father had invented, and gave one to Cody. She recognized one of the ghosts as [[Elma Hendrickson]] and realized that they were all people in pictures in the Hall of Inspiration, eventually leading to the unmasking of the ghosts as holograms. Afterwards, she put the holograms back to their original purpose as a historical display. {{storylink|The Haunting of Griffin Rock}} For her school multimedia project, she decided to make a film and roped [[Dither]] into helping. That led her to try and get the Rescue Bots to help. She ended up trying to film them during an earthquake rescue, resulting in her having to be rescued at least once. When she later went back to the fire station to get her props, she heard the team going into the tunnels under Griffin Rock and followed them, getting caught in a cave in. Heatwave came to her rescue and almost blew his cover as an ordinary robot, but she had passed out. She later showed the team the music video she'd created, though none of them were sure how much she'd found out. {{storylink|Shake Up}}

She helped Doc Greene create and demonstrate a repulsor badge for Cody. {{storylink|Rescue Boy}} With the help of Cody, Frankie and her father found a [[Temporal Station|time machine]] and managed to get it working. Unfortunately during the test, she, Cody and the Rescue Bots were pulled back in time to [[1939]] where they encountered Doctor Morocco and Elma Hendrickson. The two kids escaped Morocco's clutches and Frankie set about tracking down [[Dither]], who was the key to getting them home. After finding him in a junk yard, the pair mounted a rescue mission for the Rescue Bots, during which Frankie discovered the truth about them. With the help of [[Optimus Prime (WFC)|Optimus Prime]] and [[Bumblebee (WFC)|Bumblebee]], the group escaped back to present day, only to find Doctor Morocco was in charge. {{storylink|It's a Bot Time}} In the strange altered present, the two kids employed some detective work to find out they'd accidentally changed history by leaving Dither in the past. After an encounter with an alternate version of Cody's family, Frankie, Cody and the Bots returned to 1939 to retrieve Dither, and returned to a restored present day. {{storylink|Bot to the Future}}

[[File:RoadTrip DDR.jpg|thumb|left|300px]]
Now knowing the Rescue Bots' secret, Frankie introduced Blades to dance video games. When the [[Vacuum Accelerator]] malfunctioned, sending Cody and the Bots to various locations on the island, she helped track them. {{storylink|Road Trip}} After disagreeing with Cody regarding which project they should enter into a competition, Frankie entered her [[sky forest]] on her own and won. The sky forest was soon built, however [[Luskey|Mayor Luskey]]'s use of an experimental rapid growth formula turned it into a menace that threatened the town. {{storylink|Sky Forest}}

After an accident with a [[stasis machine]] turned Cody into a grown up, Frankie found he was less fun to play basketball with. {{storylink|One for the Ages}} Hypnotized by a cellphone, Frankie joined in the hunt for Cody and pointed him out when he tried to hide in a storm drain. She later turned up with a bunch of townsfolk to help fix [[Blossom Vale]]. {{storylink|Spellbound}}

{{spoilers|A Virtual Disaster|April 5, 2014}}
Her father promised that she and Cody would test out Doc Greene's new virtual reality game, but a snow storm cancelled their plans.{{storylink|A Virtual Disaster}}

:''Doc Greene is a [[human]] from the ''[[Transformers: Rescue Bots (franchise)|Rescue Bots]]'' portion of the [[Aligned continuity family]].''

[[Image:Doc Greene profile.jpg|300px|thumb|Because "Doc Brown" was taken.]]

'''Doc Greene''' is [[Griffin Rock]]'s very own eccentric scientist. His daughter is [[Frankie Greene]] and he owns two dogs, [[Edison]] and [[Aristotle]]. His inventions, although brilliant, endanger himself, those around him, and often the entire island on a regular basis. He drives a DeLorean complete with some familiar looking kibble.

==Fiction==
===''Rescue Bots'' cartoon===
{{voiceactor|[[LeVar Burton]] (English)|[[Gerald Schaale]] (German), [[Janusz Kruciński]] (Polish), [[Ricardo Mendoza]] (Latin American-Spanish)}}
Along with [[Charlie Burns|Chief Burns]] and [[Luskey|Mayor Luskey]], Doc Greene had [[Thaddeus Morocco|Doctor Morocco]] expelled from Griffin Rock. Green subsequently became lead scientist on the island. {{storylink|The Reign of Morocco}}

Doc Greene attended the dedication ceremony for the town's new [[Rescue Bot|robotic rescue team]] with Francine. {{storylink|Family of Heroes}} He was hanging upside-down in an attempt to increase his mental acuity when he received a call from his daughter's friend [[Cody Burns]], who asked about any volcanoes on the island. Doc Greene filled him in on [[Mount Magma]] and suggested that they try to deal with the lava problem by gradually releasing the pressure. {{storylink|Under Pressure}}

The Doc's experimental [[solar car]] went out of control, carrying him through the streets of [[Griffin Rock]]. Luckily the Rescue Bots prevented any major damage, and stopped the car. Doc Greene regarded the test as a success, apart from the control issues. While he was working on a newspaper dispenser to replace the one he ran over, [[Dani Burns]] visited and he was able to supply her with an old scoop claw he had in storage. {{storylink|Hotshots}}

[[Image:Hotshots Doc Greene at the wheel.jpg|left|300px|thumb|"As soon as I get this up to 88, I'm going to go back in time and stop myself inventing it!"]]
While filling parade balloons with helium, Doc Greene was accidentally whisked into the air when the lobster balloon he was filling got loose. He was rescued by the Burns family and their robots, and overnight developed [[floatium]], a more reliable version of helium, which he used in all of the balloons. Unfortunately the floatium ended up turning a tank full of lobsters into [[flobster]]s, and Greene had to quickly develop a new compound to get rid of the floatium. {{storylink|Flobsters on Parade}}

Doc Greene built a [[SETI]] dish for [[Huxley Prescott]] so the reporter could search for aliens. Unfortunately Prescott failed to follow safety instructions, and when Greene tried to turn it off, it was out of control and in danger of destroying the island. Fortunately the Burns family and their robots destroyed the dish. {{storylink|The Alien Invasion of Griffin Rock}} He took Cody and Frankie to [[Griffin Rock Zoo]] to celebrate [[Earth Day]]. {{storylink|Walk on the Wild Side}} Greene had some [[nanite]]s stored in his laboratory for some reason. {{Storylink|Cody on Patrol}}

Inspired by an accident on the island, Doc Greene created the [[Turbo Cycle (RB)|Turbo Cycle]] and got [[Kade Burns|Kade]] to be a test subject. When Cody wanted to try it instead, Frankie talked him into instead baby-sitting the [[Robo-Baby]] the doc had developed to record baby-related data. Greene was so impressed with the results, he let Cody test the cycle, and gave the Robo-Baby to Kade for a week. {{storylink|Four Bots and a Baby}} When Cody wanted to engineer a snow storm, Doc Greene happily supplied him with a weather machine which they set up in the town square. A snowball accident damaged the machine, and the doc had to take it back to his lab to repair it. {{storylink|Christmas in July}} When the island's automatic lighthouse failed to come on, Greene copped the flack from [[Luskey|Mayor Luskey]] and soon discovered that the lighthouse's electro-magnetic sensors had been damaged. The sensor beneath his floating research lab was also attacked, and he downloaded the video from it to discover a [[shark submarine|mechanical shark]] was behind the attacks. {{storylink|Deep Trouble}}

[[Image:ReturnDinoBot Doc Greene has coffee.jpg|thumb|right|220px|Would you care for a cup of my tea substitute? Only three of the test subjects turned bright green this time, so I'm sure it'll be fine.]]
After several break-ins at the lab, Doc Greene reprogrammed the dinosaur from the [[Griffin Rock natural history museum|museum]] as a butler/guard dog. Unfortunately someone implanted a virus in [[Trex]], which then infected the island's mainframe, and Greene had to disinfect the computer while dodging an out-of-control Trex. He succeeded in doing both that and purging the virus from Trex. Unfortunately Mayor Luskey, furious about the whole affair, relieved Greene of his post as lead scientist. {{storylink|Return of the Dino Bot}} Greene and Frankie went to stay at [[Neederlander|Mrs Neederlander]]'s bed and breakfast, and Greene occupied himself building bird houses. He and his daughter were in his solar car when it went rogue, though they got out before it attempted to flatten the mayor and was crushed by the [[MorBot]]. {{storylink|The Other Doctor}} He found the reason for the failure in the remains of the car—a canister of [[nanite]]s—but it wasn't enough to convince the mayor, and he began packing to move to the mainland. As it turned out, he didn't need to go, as Cody and Frankie found evidence incriminating the recently-returned Morocco, who had been behind the recent technology failures, and Greene was reinstated as lead scientist. {{storylink|The Reign of Morocco}}

[[Image:SmallBlessings Doc Greene with Minimizer.jpg|thumb|left|250px|"Now it's important that you hold ''very'' still. This hasn't been properly tested yet."]]
He and Frankie gave a demonstration of the [[Minimizer]] at the [[Hall of Inspiration]] during which he recklessly endangered Mrs Neederlander. When the device was later damaged during a break-in, he fixed it more or less so that Cody could return the Rescue Bots to their normal size. {{storylink|Small Blessings}} Cody consulted Doc Greene when he found a plate with strange markings and they dug up a recording of [[Anna Baranova|Professor Anna Baranova]]. After the Professor herself was brought up from the sea floor where she'd been for the last 28 years, Greene set about building her a replica of the ''[[Midgard]]'' which Frankie took as a sign he liked her. {{storylink|The Griffin Rock Triangle}}

Doc Greene gave Chief Burns a new experimental handheld holographic generator to try out. Amazingly, it did not explode. {{storylink|Rules and Regulations}} As well as inventing [[anti-gravity sneaker]]s, Doc Greene replicated samples of [[Squilsh]] brought back from [[Mars (planet)|Mars]], and conducted tests on it. The tests went swimmingly until a sample shocked with electricity seems to come to life and started eating things. Greene was forced to rapidly trying and come up with a way to neutralize the threat, though it was ultimately [[Graham Burns]] and [[Boulder]] who worked out that alternating current was the key. Greene later gave Cody a Squilsh-powered lava lamp to give Graham. {{storylink|You've Been Squilshed}}

[[Image:ShakeUp Doc Greene busts a move.jpg|thumb|right|240px|Doc Greene's moves are ISO 9000 compliant.]]
While conducting inventory in the archives, Doc Greene encountered some [[Tracer (RB)|tracers]], which transported him to a dark place that turned out to be a cavern beneath Griffin Rock. As more people were teleported in, Greene took part in an effort to dig their way out, but ultimately they were all freed by the Rescue Bots. {{storylink|Countdown (RB)|Countdown}} During a ghost invasion, the Doc and Frankie got the chance to try out his [[Spectral Vapor Filter]], though it turned out that the "ghosts" were just holograms. {{storylink|The Haunting of Griffin Rock}} Doc Greene tried to help out Frankie by busting some moves for her student film. When she remarked he was a bit rusty, he retired to the Hall of Inspiration to practice, unaware that the jukebox he was using was triggering a subwoofer stored underground which was creating tremors. {{storylink|Shake Up}} When Cody required some sort of protection, Greene was inspired by the repulsor technology in Cody's [[hoverboard]] to create a repulsor badge. Though he warned Cody not to use it too much at full power, the boy did anyway, and Doc Greene had to supply neutralizer gloves to the Rescue Bots so they could stop the badge. {{storylink|Rescue Boy}}

After Cody inadvertently discovered a [[Temporal Station|time machine]] in a hidden room, Doc Greene found that all it required was a sufficiently powerful energy source. He used nuclear power, however during the initial test, as well as Dither going through, the portal drew the Rescue Bots, Cody and Frankie through as well. {{storylink|It's a Bot Time}} Chief Burns filled Doc Greene in on the fact that the Rescue Bots were actually aliens, so they could bring in [[Optimus Prime (WFC)|Optimus Prime]] and [[Bumblebee (WFC)|Bumblebee]]. Greene was soon reunited with his daughter. {{storylink|Bot to the Future}}

[[File:RoadTrip Inspiration Counter.jpg|thumb|left|250px]]
With the help of Cybertronian technology and Boulder's technical help, Doc Greene was able to develop new and more <s>dangerous</s> innovative technology, including an [[Inspiration Counter]] to keep track of his inventions. The [[Vacuum Accelerator]] that they constructed turned out to be too erratic, transporting objects to seemingly random locations. {{storylink|Road Trip}} Greene was dismayed to learn that Mayor Luskey had taken experimental growth formula from the Best Left Forgotten room to make the trees in Frankie's [[sky forest]] grow faster. The formula resulted in the vegetation growing out of control, and Luskey suggested that Doc Greene keep the Best Left Forgotten room locked in future. {{storylink|Sky Forest}}

When a piece of his [[stasis machine]] was stolen and the remaining piece accidentally aged Cody into an adult, Doc Greene set about trying to configure the remaining part to reverse the aging without much success. Luckily the missing piece was later recovered. {{storylink|One for the Ages}} Graham consulted Doc Greene for a list of the cargo manifest when the [[S.S. Isolde]] was discovered. {{storylink|Tip of the Iceberg}} Doc Greene was among those hypnotized by cellphones. He tried to lure Cody into a trap, but the boy managed to elude the townsfolk. Later, after everyone was freed from their mesmerized state, he turned up to help fix [[Blossom Vale]]. {{storylink|Spellbound}}

{{spoilers|A Virtual Disaster|April 5, 2014}}
Sometime before, Doc Green built a virtual reality game. He promised Cody and Frankie that they could test it out, but a snow storm trapped him on the mainland. Chief Burns attempted to call him when Cody and Blades were trapped in the game, but the snow storm blocked out all reception. {{storylink|A Virtual Disaster}}

[[Image:CodyOnPatrol Mr Harrison.jpg|thumb|right|300px|This image is not actually upside down.]]
'''Harrison''' is a resident of the island of [[Griffin Rock]]. He owns a heli-pack with a few control issues.

==Fiction==
===''Rescue Bots'' cartoon===
:''Voice actor:'' [[D.C. Douglas]] (English), [[Benjamín Rivera]] (Latin American-Spanish)
Setting out one morning, Mr. Harrison paused to wave to [[Cody Burns]]. Unfortunately, taking his hand off the controls caused him to lose control of his heli-pack momentarily and he swung around alarmingly, but he regained control a short time later. He survived his helicopter ride, and later attended the dedication ceremony for the town's new [[Rescue Bot|robotic rescue team]]. {{storylink|Family of Heroes}} Harrison was among the spectators at the technology parade during the [[Lobster and Technology Festival]]. {{storylink|Flobsters on Parade}} He was also one of the residents who tried to flee the island on the ferry when [[Huxley Prescott]] reported an alien invasion was in progress. {{storylink|The Alien Invasion of Griffin Rock}}

Another morning, his heli-pack went completely out of control, and he had to be rescued by the Burns family, though it resulted in a splash-landing in the sea. Afterwards he asked them for a ride to work. {{storylink|Cody on Patrol}} He was a customer at the bank when a sink hole threatened to swallow the building, and again had to be rescued by [[Dani Burns|Dani]] and [[Blades (RB)|Blades]]. {{storylink|Four Bots and a Baby}} During another out-of-control heli-pack ride, Harrison was stopped by the [[MorBot]], which used a fire hydrant to destroy his heli-pack and caught him before he hit the ground. {{storylink|The Reign of Morocco}}

Mr Harrison was at the [[Hall of Inspiration]] and watched [[Doc Greene]] and [[Frankie Greene|Frankie]] demonstrate the [[Camera Gloves]] and [[Minimizer]]. {{storylink|Small Blessings}} Harrison attended the [[Founders' Day]] celebrations. {{storylink|The Lost Bell}} While out flying, he was tagged by a [[Tracer (RB)|tracer]] and transported to a cavern under Griffin Rock, minus his heli-pack. {{storylink|Countdown (RB)|Countdown}} During an apparent infestation of ghosts, Mr Harrison rang the emergency services, but Chief Burns already knew about the problem. {{storylink|The Haunting of Griffin Rock}}

Following the construction of the [[sky forest]], Harrison engaged in some bird spotting with the puffins the vegetation had attracted. Unfortunately the rapid growth formula used on the plants turned them hostile, and Mr Harrison had to be rescued by [[Boulder]] and [[Graham Burns|Graham]]. {{storylink|Sky Forest}} Mr Harrison was among the townspeople hypnotized by strange cellphones and forced to hunt for Cody Burns. {{storylink|Spellbound}}

:''Mayor Luskey is a [[human]] from the ''[[Transformers: Rescue Bots (franchise)|Rescue Bots]]'' portion of the [[Aligned continuity family]].''
[[Image:FlobstersOnParade Mayor Luskey.jpg|thumb|right|300px|His toupee is a flight risk.]]
Mayor '''Luskey''' has the misfortune to be the mayor of [[Griffin Rock]]. Vain and egocentric, he will often blame others for his own mistakes, or claim credit for successful ideas which weren't his. He owns a boat named the ''[[Floating Xanadu]]'', and married [[Luskey's wife|one of the winners]] of the [[Miss Griffin Rock]] pageant.

{{quote|As your mayor, I consider myself head of the whole Griffin Rock family.|Mayor Luskey|"[[Flobsters on Parade]]"}}

==Fiction==
===''Rescue Bots'' cartoon===
{{voiceactor|[[Jeff Glen Bennett|Jeff Bennett]] (English)|[[Robert Tondera]] (Polish)}}

Mayor Luskey, [[Doc Greene]] and [[Charlie Burns|Chief Burns]] expelled [[Thaddeus Morocco|Doctor Morocco]] from the island after his inventions proved dangerous. {{storylink|The Reign of Morocco}}

During the [[Lobster and Technology Festival]], Mayor Luskey took part in the technology parade. Afterwards he was interviewed by reporter [[Huxley Prescott]] and invited everyone to come to the town square to take part in the festival, only to be attacked on-camera by [[flobster]]s, who relieved him of his toupee. He attempted to flee in his car, only to be attacked by more flobsters which severed a nearby power line. [[Graham Burns]] and [[Boulder]] came to his rescue, and Graham returned his toupee. {{storylink|Flobsters on Parade}} The Mayor and his wife had a weekly picnic, during which they had a path cut through grass for them. When the power went out during what everyone thought was an alien invasion, the Mayor panicked and triggered the air raid siren, before running through the streets telling everyone that "they" were coming. {{storylink|The Alien Invasion of Griffin Rock}}

[[Image:WalkWildSide Luskey versus Lemur.jpg|thumb|left|240px]]
As part of the town's [[Earth Day]] celebrations, Luskey unveiled the [[Mayor Luskey Library]]. When recycling-happy lemurs escaped from the [[Griffin Rock Zoo|zoo]], he watched in alarm as they began tearing the building apart and one of them made off with his toupee. He later unveiled the Mayor Luskey Enclosure at the zoo, to hold the [[Whiskers|cross-eyed lion]]. {{storylink|Walk on the Wild Side}} During a heatwave, the Mayor demonstrated how it was hot enough to fry an egg on the pavement, only for the egg and his hat to catch fire. When [[Cody Burns|Cody]] came up with the idea of using a weather machine to create snow, Luskey was happy to take the credit, but when the machine went out of control, he and some other residents were trapped in city hall until the Rescue Bots came to their aid. {{storylink|Christmas in July}}

After almost colliding with rocks after the lighthouse failed, Luskey ordered [[Doc Greene]] to sort it out before the next day's [[Miss Griffin Rock]] pageant. During the pageant, a [[shark submarine|giant shark]] appeared off the shore without warning, and Luskey had to angrily contact Greene again. {{storylink|Deep Trouble}} On a particularly foggy day, the Griffin Rock mainframe was hacked into, and Luskey was trapped in town hall by a rogue garbage truck and doused by the fire sprinkers. Though he was rescued by [[Heatwave (RB)|Heatwave]] and [[Kade Burns]], he was so incensed he later fired Doc Greene from the position of lead scientist. {{storylink|Return of the Dino Bot}}

After Morocco's [[MorBot]] saved the mayor from a rogue road roller, Luskey seemed happy to entertain the notion of allowing Morocco to compete with the Burns family to see who was best at rescue. It only took the MorBot saving Luskey from being splattered by Doc Greene's [[solar car]] for him to have the Rescue Bots stood down and appoint Morocco as lead scientist. {{storylink|The Other Doctor}} Burns's claims that Morocco was behind the recent troubles were ignored by Luskey, who took Morocco out on the ''Floating Xanadu'' to see the sun rise. It was only when the voters started getting angry about the destruction wrought by the MorBot that Luskey was forced to press the Rescue Bots back into action, and with compelling evidence that Morocco was behind everything, Luskey and the council reinstated both Burns's team and Doc Greene. {{storylink|The Reign of Morocco}}

[[Image:RescueBoy Luskey's statue.jpg|thumb|right|270px]]
Mayor Luskey attended the [[Founders' Day]] celebrations. {{storylink|The Lost Bell}} He was among those transported to a cavern under Griffin Rock by the [[Tracer (RB)|tracers]]. {{storylink|Countdown (RB)|Countdown}} Mayor Luskey was chased onto a metal balcony by the [[Ghost Inventor]]. Luckily Heatwave was around to rescue him when the balcony collapsed. {{storylink|The Haunting of Griffin Rock}} Luskey had a statue built of one of the town's most distinguished citizens—himself! During the dedication ceremony, a rogue concrete pipe came down the hill towards the mayor's group. Though it totaled the statue, Cody managed to destroy the pipe before it could flatten the mayor, who promptly declared him a superhero. {{storylink|Rescue Boy}}

In an alternate timeline where Morocco ruled "Moropolis", Luskey was a restaurant owner. He had a lot of trouble with the MorBots breaking his tables. {{storylink|Bot to the Future}}

Luskey was startled by the teleportation of the rescue team's [[Mobile Headquarters]] onto his front lawn. {{storylink|Road Trip}} He judged a science competition, naming [[Frankie Greene]]'s [[sky forest]] the winner and announcing they'd build a full-sized version. Disappointed that it would take a decade to grow the forest, he used some quick growth formula from the [[Hall of Inspiration]], resulting in the town being threatened by out-of-control vines. {{storylink|Sky Forest}} At some point Morocco returned the Mayor's ship, and Luskey pardoned him. {{storylink|Tip of the Iceberg}}

[[File:Spellbound Luskey.gif|thumb|left|200px]]
Luskey turned down an offer to buy [[Blossom Vale]], because he and his wife enjoyed going there to snorkel. He was one of the many townspeople temporarily hypnotized by mysterious cellphones. {{storylink|Spellbound}}

'''Francine Elma "Frankie" Greene''' is the daughter of [[Doc Greene]]. She is strong-willed and independent, and won't hesitate to speak her mind if something's obviously wrong. Frankie and [[Cody Burns]] are firm friends, though she is the smarter of the two, and often finds herself humoring her friend when he gets the notion to do something dangerous.

Francine attended the dedication ceremony for the town's new [[Rescue Bot|robotic rescue team]] with her father. She called [[Cody Burns]] over to where they were, but proceeded to be too interested in the new robot dinosaur exhibit at the [[Griffin Rock natural history museum|museum]] to pay any attention to the new robots. Later on, when one of the robot dinosaurs got loose, Cody rang her for advice on how to deal with it. {{storylink|Family of Heroes}}

[[Image:AlienInvasion Frankie is suspicious.jpg|left|270px|thumb]]
Frankie looked forward to riding on her dad's float in the [[Lobster and Technology Festival]] parade. She watched in alarm as her father had to be rescued from a runaway helium balloon. The next day she was in the parade when the festival was attacked by [[flobster]]s. While she attempted to fend them off with a kitchen implement, they were attracted to the starfish design on her jacket and chased her into a phone box. She had to call Cody for help and was soon rescued by [[Heatwave (RB)|Heatwave]]. {{storylink|Flobsters on Parade}} She was impressed by the [[SETI]] dish her father built for [[Huxley Prescott]]. When the dish had to be destroyed by the Burns family robots, she became suspicious that they were altogether too sophisticated. {{storylink|The Alien Invasion of Griffin Rock}}

To celebrate [[Earth Day]], Frankie and Cody visited the [[Griffin Rock Zoo|zoo]]. Frankie was most interested in the lemurs, trained to sort recyclable waste. She later saved Cody from an [[Whiskers|escaped lion]] by using her forcefield bracelet. {{storylink|Walk on the Wild Side}} Out walking [[Edison]] and [[Aristotle]], Frankie lost control of the dogs when Cody's go-kart [[Rolling Thunder]] backfired. Luckily they were stopped from running into traffic by [[Boulder]]. When Cody later asked for something to soup up Rolling Thunder, Frankie gave him some nanites and rang emergency services. She later found the nanites weren't in the lab's official inventory. {{Storylink|Cody on Patrol}}

When Cody wanted to try the [[Turbo Cycle (RB)|Turbo Cycle]], Frankie challenged him to prove he was responsible enough by taking care of the [[Robo-Baby]] while she and her father visited the mainland. To her surprise, he managed to succeed. {{storylink|Four Bots and a Baby}} Frankie and Cody sold lemonade during a heatwave, but when Cody got the idea of engineering a showfall, Frankie was more interested in enjoying Summer at the river. When the weather machine went out of control, Frankie found she enjoyed the iced-over river, at least until it thawed and she was left heading downriver on a piece of ice. Fortunately she was saved by Boulder. {{storylink|Christmas in July}} Frankie and her father joined the Burns family for a barbeque and basketball game. {{storylink|Deep Trouble}}

[[Image:ReturnDinoBot Frankie sits on Trex.jpg|right|350px|thumb|That's right, it's a dinosaur ''and'' a robot. That's doubly cool.]]
Frankie enjoyed having [[Trex]] as a robot butler, and taught him to fetch coffee for her father. When the robot dinosaur was infected with a virus and passed it on to the Griffin Rock mainframe, Frankie risked her life to make sure the disinfection of the mainframe completed. {{storylink|Return of the Dino Bot}} She and Doc Greene were forced to stay at [[Neederlander|Mrs Neederlander]]'s bed and breakfast after he was fired from his position as lead scientist. When [[Thaddeus Morocco|Doctor Morocco]] showed up in town, Frankie disapproved of Prescott's biased reporting. She and Doc Greene were in the [[solar car]] when it went out of control, and they had to be rescued by the Rescue Bots. {{storylink|The Other Doctor}} With Greene preparing to leave the island, Frankie and Cody sneaked into the lab, only to find that Frankie's password to the computer had been disabled. Morocco found them, and they fled from the [[MorBot]] to Morocco's airship. Frankie spotted that the onboard computer contained incriminating evidence, and downloaded it onto a memory stick while Cody landed the ship. The evidence later got Doc Greene and the Rescue Bots reinstated. {{storylink|The Reign of Morocco}}

[[Image:YouveBeenSquilshed Frankie gets squilshed.jpg|thumb|left|250px]]
Doc Greene and Frankie gave a demonstration of technology at the [[Hall of Inspiration]], with Frankie showing off the [[Camera Gloves]]. She later helped her father fix the [[Minimizer]] when the device was damaged. {{storylink|Small Blessings}} Frankie helped Cody dig up a film reel made by [[Anna Baranova|Professor Anna Baranova]]. After the Professor was rescued from her crashed laboratory, Frankie noted that Doc Greene seemed to have taken a shine to her. {{storylink|The Griffin Rock Triangle}} Frankie helped her father test out [[Squilsh]] by performing impact tests on it (i.e. throwing it at things). When a sample came to life and started eating things, she tried to help her father work out a way to stop it. {{storylink|You've Been Squilshed}}

While they were conducting an inventory of the archive, Frankie's father disappeared and she was pursued by a number of small bug-like creatures. After being rescued by [[Blades (RB)|Blades]], she went with the Burns family back to the fire station, where they learned that the [[Tracer (RB)|tracers]] were part of the [[Sanctuary Plan]]. Frankie and Cody went to the laboratory where Frankie called up the file before being teleported by the bugs to a cavern under Griffin Rock. While they were ultimately rescued from there by the Rescue Bots, Frankie made Cody promise not to tell anyone she was afraid of the dark. {{storylink|Countdown (RB)|Countdown}}

[[Image:ShakeUp Frankie's music video.jpg|thumb|right|280px]]
When a ghost was reported, Frankie decided it was a perfect time to try out the [[Spectral Vapor Filter]] her father had invented, and gave one to Cody. She recognized one of the ghosts as [[Elma Hendrickson]] and realized that they were all people in pictures in the Hall of Inspiration, eventually leading to the unmasking of the ghosts as holograms. Afterwards, she put the holograms back to their original purpose as a historical display. {{storylink|The Haunting of Griffin Rock}} For her school multimedia project, she decided to make a film and roped [[Dither]] into helping. That led her to try and get the Rescue Bots to help. She ended up trying to film them during an earthquake rescue, resulting in her having to be rescued at least once. When she later went back to the fire station to get her props, she heard the team going into the tunnels under Griffin Rock and followed them, getting caught in a cave in. Heatwave came to her rescue and almost blew his cover as an ordinary robot, but she had passed out. She later showed the team the music video she'd created, though none of them were sure how much she'd found out. {{storylink|Shake Up}}

She helped Doc Greene create and demonstrate a repulsor badge for Cody. {{storylink|Rescue Boy}} With the help of Cody, Frankie and her father found a [[Temporal Station|time machine]] and managed to get it working. Unfortunately during the test, she, Cody and the Rescue Bots were pulled back in time to [[1939]] where they encountered Doctor Morocco and Elma Hendrickson. The two kids escaped Morocco's clutches and Frankie set about tracking down [[Dither]], who was the key to getting them home. After finding him in a junk yard, the pair mounted a rescue mission for the Rescue Bots, during which Frankie discovered the truth about them. With the help of [[Optimus Prime (WFC)|Optimus Prime]] and [[Bumblebee (WFC)|Bumblebee]], the group escaped back to present day, only to find Doctor Morocco was in charge. {{storylink|It's a Bot Time}} In the strange altered present, the two kids employed some detective work to find out they'd accidentally changed history by leaving Dither in the past. After an encounter with an alternate version of Cody's family, Frankie, Cody and the Bots returned to 1939 to retrieve Dither, and returned to a restored present day. {{storylink|Bot to the Future}}

[[File:RoadTrip DDR.jpg|thumb|left|300px]]
Now knowing the Rescue Bots' secret, Frankie introduced Blades to dance video games. When the [[Vacuum Accelerator]] malfunctioned, sending Cody and the Bots to various locations on the island, she helped track them. {{storylink|Road Trip}} After disagreeing with Cody regarding which project they should enter into a competition, Frankie entered her [[sky forest]] on her own and won. The sky forest was soon built, however [[Luskey|Mayor Luskey]]'s use of an experimental rapid growth formula turned it into a menace that threatened the town. {{storylink|Sky Forest}}

After an accident with a [[stasis machine]] turned Cody into a grown up, Frankie found he was less fun to play basketball with. {{storylink|One for the Ages}} Hypnotized by a cellphone, Frankie joined in the hunt for Cody and pointed him out when he tried to hide in a storm drain. She later turned up with a bunch of townsfolk to help fix [[Blossom Vale]]. {{storylink|Spellbound}}

Blades (RB)

{{factions|rescuebot}}
{{disambig3|Blades}}
:''Blades is an [[Autobot]] from the ''[[Transformers: Rescue Bots (franchise)|Rescue Bots]]'' portion of the [[Aligned continuity family]].''

[[Image:RescueBotsBlades-charactermodel.jpg|thumb|300px|Function: Autobot Nebbish.]]

With the help of his partner, the eager and daring rescue tech [[Dani Burns]], '''Blades''' the Copter-Bot struggles to overcome the fear of heights his new Earth-gained flying form has revealed. Young and unsure at times, Blades would prefer to be safe and on the ground...but he doesn't let that stop him when others are in danger. Overcoming his own fears to save others is part of what makes Blades a Rescue Bot and a true hero.

He has also been known to work with [[Sawyer Storm]] and is a huge admirer of [[Bumblebee (WFC)|Bumblebee]].

{{quote|Fear is a great motivator.|Blades|[[You've Been Squilshed]]}}

==Fiction==
===''Rescue Bots'' cartoon===
{{voiceactor|[[Parvesh Cheena]] (English)|[[Bernhard Völger]] (German), [[Klaudiusz Kaufmann]] (Polish), [[Moisés Ivan Mora]] (Latin American-Spanish)}}
Blades was part of a team of [[Rescue Bot]]s drifting through space when their spaceship received a transmission from [[Optimus Prime (WFC)|Optimus Prime]] and landed on [[Earth]]. After dropping the bombshell that [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] was no more, Optimus assigned the team to [[Griffin Rock]] to work with the Burns family. Blades was not keen on the helicopter [[alternate mode]] he was forced to take, as his previous form had wheels and he was afraid of heights. The four Rescue Bots were presented to the public by [[Charlie Burns|Chief Burns]] at a ceremony, following which Blades discovered that his new partner, [[Dani Burns]], could yell really loud when she wanted him to fly faster as they went to the [[Griffin Rock natural history museum|museum]] to attend to a fire. That night, [[Cody Burns]] discovered the Rescue Bots' secret, and after they helped stop a rogue robot ''Tyrannosaurus rex'', Chief Burns revealed the truth to the rest of the team. {{storylink|Family of Heroes}}

Dani and Blades continued to have trouble working together, arriving late to an emergency. Cody tried unsuccessfully to get the pair to bond, until there was another emergency when [[Mount Magma]] began threatening the island with lava. Blades and Dani operated the switch to open the volcano's crater as a relief measure, but when they were subsequently caught in an ash cloud, Dani had to cajole a panicking Blades into flying out of it. He managed to earn her respect when he subsequently braved the ash to pick up a water tower and douse the lava with it. {{storylink|Under Pressure}}

[[Image:Hotshots Blades with scoopclaw belly.jpg|thumb|left|250px]]
After Blades felt like he wasn't contributing enough, Dani fitted a scoop claw to him, something he wasn't that enthusiastic about, and made him look fat in robot mode. The claw soon proved its worth, though the other Rescue Bots were annoyed Blades and Dani were hogging all the rescues and even threatened to forcibly remove it. When during a patrol, Blades was forced down by a lightning strike, the other Rescue Bots came to his aid, and he and Dani decided to use the claw scoop a little less often in the future. {{storylink|Hotshots}} Blades and Dani retrieved a lobster parade balloon after it carried away Doc Greene. Three of the Rescue Bots took part in the technology parade during the [[Lobster and Technology Festival]] but the town was attacked by [[flobster]]s, who seemed to have a liking for Blades's face. He and Dani helped round them up using a cage and the lobster balloon, so they could be neutralized. Afterwards, Blades finally worked out the joke. {{storylink|Flobsters on Parade}}

[[Image:FourBotsBaby Blades lowers harness.jpg|thumb|right|240px]]
After helping prevent a hazardous chemical spill, the Rescue Bots were forced to endure a screening of ''[[The Natives of Tatui]]'' that resulted in [[Huxley Prescott]] causing a mass panic when he reported an alien invasion. The Rescue Bots had to help during the ensuing chaos and destroyed Huxley's [[SETI]] dish to avoid the island's destruction. {{storylink|The Alien Invasion of Griffin Rock}} After Boulder got the idea to adopt a pet, Blades helped him by shutting down the power to [[Griffin Rock Zoo]]. They spent the rest of the night trying to find the [[Whiskers|lion]] that Boulder had let loose, and Blades ended up catching it in a cage. {{storylink|Walk on the Wild Side}}

After Cody souped up a go-kart, Blades was worried he wouldn't want to hang out with them any more. The go-kart turned sour when Cody tried to soup it up with nanites, which instead ran rampant, and the Rescue Bots had to help him. {{storylink|Cody on Patrol}} Cody roped the Rescue Bots into helping him take care of a [[Robo-Baby]]. They found Blades's rotors had a soothing effect on the baby and put it to sleep. When the bank was in danger of falling into a sinkhole, Blades and Dani had to rescue [[Harrison (RB)|Mr Harrison]] again, and in the meantime the baby escaped from the fire station, forcing Cody and the Rescue Bots to track it down. {{storylink|Four Bots and a Baby}}

[[Image:DeepTrouble Pirate Blades.jpg|thumb|left|300px]]
During a snowfall caused by a weather machine, Dani and Blades helped save city hall by flying upside-down and clearing the snow off the roof. Unfortunately this left Blades too frozen to fly when they later needed to rescue [[Frankie Greene|Frankie]] from a chunk of ice on the river. {{storylink|Christmas in July}} Blades and Dani rescued Mayor Luskey when his boat, the ''[[Floating Xanadu]]'' was in danger of running aground. He and the other Rescue Bots were invited on a fishing trip with Chief Burns and Cody the next day, and Blades, who had been watching too many pirate movies, began affecting pirate talk. After the Bots encountered and fought a [[shark submarine]], the sub started a self destruct sequence, and Blades had to fly it out to sea before it exploded. {{storylink|Deep Trouble}}

Blades was happy at being grounded due to fog, but had to fly anyway when the dinosaur from the museum was spotted near the lab. Though it turned out the dinosaur had been reprogrammed, a short time later the island's technology went wild, and the Rescue Bots had to deal with the out-of-control devices and a hacked [[Trex]]. After they subdued the beast, Blades had to fly Doc Greene back to his lab to remove the virus from Trex. {{storylink|Return of the Dino Bot}} When [[Thaddeus Morocco|Doctor Morocco]] turned up with his [[MorBot]] and threatened to overshadow the Rescue Bots, the team was forced to compete with the doctor's invention to prove themselves worthy. Thanks to Morocco's machinations, they failed and were stood down from service. {{storylink|The Other Doctor}} Blades turned to television. He was pressed into service by Cody, who had Dani fly him over to spy on the lab, which worked until they were spotted by the MorBot which chased them back to the fire station. After being called out to a fire at the lab, the Rescue Bots got the chance to exact some payback on the MorBot. The team was subsequently reinstated as Griffin Rock's rescue service. {{storylink|The Reign of Morocco}}

[[Image:GriffinRockTriangle Blades pulls boat.jpg|thumb|right|250px]]
Though Blades and Dani turned up to rescue [[Hayley]], Kade insisted on doing it himself so he could impress the girl. The team turned up to a break-in at the [[Hall of Inspiration]], during which Blades, Heatwave and Boulder were shrunk to the size of ants by the [[Minimizer]] and ended up in the sewer. After braving huge rats and a torrent of water, they made it to the [[Griffin Rock dam]], where they rescued Kade and alerted the rest of the team to the fact that the dam was near bursting. Cody later used the Minimizer to return them to their normal sizes. {{storylink|Small Blessings}} While trying to save [[Wild|Captain Wild]]'s boat, Blades was pulled under the sea but managed to save the boat with the help of the rest of the team. He helped Cody search the tunnels under the island to find a mooring station, leading the team to venture into the sea where they helped [[Anna Baranova|Professor Baranova]] seal the vent causing the [[Griffin Rock Triangle]]. {{storylink|The Griffin Rock Triangle}}

After the daring rescue of Huxley Prescott by the four bots, Chief left them with strict orders not to go to [[Griffin Crest]]. After receiving an apparent SOS from Cody, Blades and the others went there anyway and ended up immobilized by an [[Electromagnetic pulse|EMP]] field, leaving them in need of a rescue. {{storylink|Rules and Regulations}} Blades had a rotor bend during a rescue at the airport, so when he and the other three Bots were washed out to sea with Cody and ended up on an inhabited island, he was unable to fly back to Griffin Rock for help. The Bots' attempts to build him shelter and gather food were less than successful, but they did manage to find traces of the ''[[Oaken Crow]]'', which led to them finding the ship and getting off the island. {{storylink|The Lost Bell}}

[[Image:Bttr bumblebee blades.jpg|thumb|left|320px]]
While on a mission to [[Wayward Island]], Blades was excited to meet Bumblebee, however his attempting to show off backfired when he got stuck to a tree and Bumblebee had to rescue him. Back on Griffin Rock, the team attended another rescue, but when the other three Rescue Bots seized up, Bumblebee once again had to help Blades complete the rescue. As it turned out the others had been infected by a virus from the meteorite, Blades stayed at the fire station while the humans and Bumblebee went to deal with it, but ended up flying out himself to rescue Bumblebee from an undersea trench. Faced with an out-of-control bomb, the two Bots used it to destroy the meteorite, but were infected by the virus themselves. Luckily a sample of the meteorite they'd obtained resulted in the finding of a cure, and Blades was overjoyed to get some photos of himself with Bumblebee. {{storylink|Bumblebee to the Rescue (RB)|Bumblebee to the Rescue}}

When the Rescue Bots were called out to deal with a huge blob of space goo, Blades was horrified by it eating [[Mister Pettypaws]] and tried fruitlessly to hit it with a park sculpture. He and Dani tracked the [[Squilsh]] from the air, and later provided an air lift when the team cornered it at the [[Griffin Rock Community Pool]]. {{storylink|You've Been Squilshed}} Blades and Dani rescued Frankie from [[Tracer (RB)|tracers]] after most of the townspeople were teleported elsewhere by them, and had to fly through the wind farm to try to lose a swarm of the bugs. Back at the fire station, the Bots had their work cut out squishing bugs, though Blades managed to catch one, enabling Boulder to find a way to neutralize them. The four Bots later tracked down the cavern where the townsfolk had been teleported and rescued them all. {{storylink|Countdown (RB)|Countdown}} When Griffin Rock was hit by an infestation of what appeared to be ghosts, Blades was particularly hesitant to deal with them, having watched all fourteen ''[[Haunted Halls]]'' movies. He was especially unnerved when one manifested right inside his cockpit. {{storylink|The Haunting of Griffin Rock}}

[[Image:LittleWhiteLies Blades protects Graham.jpg|thumb|right|260px]]
Blades helped search the island for Chief Burns and Chase after the pair went missing, though when the trail led to the old lead mine, he was almost too worried about blood-sucking bats to go in. He, [[Graham Burns|Graham]] and Dani followed Boulder's sonar and managed to find Chase. {{storylink|Little White Lies}} The Rescue Bots were forced to be extra attentive to their cover as robots when Frankie started filming them for a school project. They stopped a swarm of earthquakes by tracking down the cause in the caves under Griffin Rock. {{storylink|Shake Up}} Following Blades's discovery of fireworks, Cody got a repulsor badge, granting the boy superhero-like powers. When the badge overloaded, trapping Cody in an energy bubble, Blades declared it his mortal enemy, as he and the other Bots worked to rescue Cody. {{storylink|Rescue Boy}}

Blades, the other Rescue Bots, Cody and Frankie were sent back in time to [[1939]] in a time travel accident. There they fell into the hands of a team of scientists headed by Doctor Morocco who performed experiments on them. Morocco was getting to the point of dissecting the four Bots when Optimus and Bumblebee came to their rescue. On returning to the present, they found that Morocco had taken over the town with the aid of his MorBots. {{storylink|It's a Bot Time}} The four bots managed to elude the MorBots and soon established that leaving [[Dither]] in the past had resulted in the changed. After an encounter with an alternate version of the Burns family, including a version of Dani who didn't like flying, the Rescue Bots returned to 1939 and retrieved Dither, returning the timeline to normal. {{storylink|Bot to the Future}}

Blades took to playing a dance video game with Frankie, once she and Doc Greene knew the Rescue Bots' secret. He assisted in the rescue of [[Taylor]], whom he was amused to note that Dani had taken a liking to, and had to rescue the other Bots when Doc Greene's [[Vacuum Accelerator]] warped them to the top of [[Mount Griffin]]. {{storylink|Road Trip}} The Rescue Bots helped construct Frankie Greene's [[sky forest]], only to have to rescue the town's citizens when the plant life grew out of control. {{storylink|Sky Forest}} When Chief Burns was ill, the four bots had to contend with Kade appointing himself new team leader, and Cody being aged into an adult in a lab experiment. Blades's attempt to salvage a crashed rocket from where it was tangled in power lines resulted in it exploding. {{storylink|One for the Ages}}

He and Dani tracked an iceberg, only to discover it was actually [[S.S. Isolde|a ship]] frozen by a piece of cargo it was carrying, the [[Sub-Zero Expander]]. After accidentally getting frozen by the machine, Blades returned to base, and took part in an attempt to get rid of the device by blowing it up, which was aborted when it turned out Doctor Morocco had claimed the vessel as salvage. The team had to deal with the fallout when the device exploded and froze a five-mile section of ocean. {{storylink|Tip of the Iceberg}} When the rest of the team was mesmerized by cellphones, Blades escaped by virtue of being out on patrol at the time, though it did mean he and Dani had to put out a fire without Heatwave's help. They were subsequently mind-controlled as well, and forced to excavate [[Blossom Vale]] until the cell tower was taken out. {{storylink|Spellbound}}

{{spoilers|A Virtual Disaster|April 5, 2014}}
After a rescue mission where Blades became frightened of the snowy weather, Cody took Blades to the Hall of Inspiration where they played the Doc's new virtual reality game. Inside the game, Cody teaches Blades about video games, such as power-ups and boss fights, but the game bugs out when lightning strikes the Hall. The bosses can now hurt the two and Blades overcomes his fear and gains the courage to protect Cody, much to Heatwave's surprise. The three beat the game, thanks to Blades, and are teleported out of the game. Heatwave later comments on Blades' courage. {{storylink|A Virtual Disaster}}

'''Cody Burns''' is the youngest of the Burns siblings. Despite still being in school, he's keen to take up the family mantle of becoming a rescue worker and driving an emergency vehicle around [[Griffin Rock]]. Now that he's discovered that the rescue vehicles can drive themselves and his dad, [[Charlie Burns|Chief Charlie Burns]], has relented and let him join the team, maybe he'll get that chance.

Cody once borrowed [[Doc Greene]]'s [[Fusion powered water gun|fusion powered water gun]]. It did not end well, though at least the town was a lot cleaner afterwards. {{storylink|Four Bots and a Baby}}

[[Image:FamilyOfHeroes Cody Burns.jpg|thumb|left|220px]]
Cody was cycling to school when Chief Burns stopped by to remind him to attend the dedication ceremony for the new emergency vehicles that afternoon. Cody went along, meeting his friend [[Frankie Greene]] there, but his suspicions were aroused when one of the new rescue robots moved on its own. He followed his family and their new robots to a fire at the [[Griffin Rock natural history museum|museum]], and became even more suspicious when [[Heatwave (RB)|the fire engine]] saved his dad and brother [[Graham Burns|Graham]] from a falling dinosaur head. That night, he caught the four robots talking and discovered that they were, in fact, [[Autobot]]s from a distant world. He attempted to help them better act like Earth robots, taking them through one of the tunnels under the island. When they encountered a rogue robot ''Tyrannosaurus rex'', Cody contacted Chief Burns, only to find his father already knew the Autobots were aliens. After he helped stop the ''T. rex'' by consulting Frankie, Cody was welcomed onto the team. {{storylink|Family of Heroes}}

Cody continued to try and help the Autobots to work together with his siblings, even luring [[Kade Burns|Kade]], [[Dani Burns|Dani]] and Graham down to the bunker beneath the fire station for a bonding session. During a subsequent disaster with a volcano spewing lava onto the island, Cody was able to advise his family by radio and help them cooperate with the Rescue Bots. By the time the adventure was over, they even worked together to save Cody from the lava. {{storylink|Under Pressure}} When Dani attached a rescue claw to [[Blades (RB)|Blades]] and tempers started flaring in the team, Cody tried to ameliorate relations, only to be dismissed by both his siblings and the Rescue Bots. Despite this he went along with Dani and Blades as they went on patrol and was endangered when Blades was struck by lightning. {{storylink|Hotshots}}

After Heatwave nearly gave away the game, Cody gave the Rescue Bots a refresher course on behaving like robots. He went to the [[Lobster and Technology Festival]] with Frankie, and when the festival was attacked by flying lobsters, he dubbed them [[flobster]]s. He coordinated the Rescue Bot response to the threat and even helped rescue Frankie from a swarm of them. It was his idea to scare them using the giant lobster balloons that helped neutralize the flobster threat. {{storylink|Flobsters on Parade}} Cody subjected the Rescue Bots to a screening of ''[[The Natives of Tatui]]''. When the power went out during an alien invasion panic, Cody used the tunnels to reach the [[Griffin Rock power plant|power plant]], and helped his family cover for the Rescue Bots when their secret was in danger of being exposed. {{storylink|The Alien Invasion of Griffin Rock}}

[[Image:CodyOnPatrol powering up.jpg|thumb|right|350px]]
After a cat rescue, Cody visited [[Griffin Rock Zoo|the zoo]] as part of [[Earth Day]] celebrations. Unfortunately his photos of the animals and earlier talk of getting a pet resulted in Boulder letting loose a lion and some lemurs. Cody's thought up a way to get the lemurs back into their enclosure. {{storylink|Walk on the Wild Side}} Finding an old go-kart, Cody used it to save [[Harrison (RB)|Mr Harrison]] and subsequently rebuilt it into [[Rolling Thunder]]. Unfortunate its engine was still inadequate, so Cody borrowed nanites from Doc Greene's lab to soup it up. The nanites soon became out of control, and after being menaced by the [[Scrapmaster]], and having [[Boulder]] taken over by them, Cody came up with a plan to stop them using the power plant that ultimately succeeded. {{storylink|Cody on Patrol}}

In an attempt to convince Doc Greene that he was responsible enough to test-drive the [[Turbo Cycle (RB)|Turbo Cycle]], Cody volunteered to look after the [[Robo-Baby]] and roped the Rescue Bots into helping him. When the baby escaped from the fire station in the middle of an emergency, Cody tracked it down to the wind farm, where he and the Rescue Bots retrieved it from a windmill. Doc Greene was impressed enough with the data collected to allow Cody to be the Turbo Cycle tester. {{storylink|Four Bots and a Baby}} During a heatwave, Cody and Frankie sold lemonade from a stand. Boulder gave Cody the idea of trying to create a snowstorm, so he got Doc Greene to set up a weather machine in the town square. Their fun came to a halt when the machine went out of control, and Cody was under threat while sheltering in city hall, as the roof almost collapsed under the weight of the snow. After a rescue from the rest of the team, Cody joined them in helping Frankie off her chunk of ice in the river. {{storylink|Christmas in July}}

[[Image:ReignOfMorocco Cody flies blimp.jpg|thumb|left|300px]]
Unlike the rest of his siblings, Cody was happy to go on the annual family fishing trip, but when they encountered a [[shark submarine|giant mechanical shark]], Cody was left on the pier to monitor things from afar. {{storylink|Deep Trouble}} When Cody discovered that the Greenes had reprogrammed the [[Trex|dinosaur from the museum]] as a butler, he wanted one too. He seemed less enthusiastic when it passed on a virus to the town's mainframe, and he had to help the rest of the team attend emergencies caused by out-of-control technology. His idea to stop Trex by giving it voice commands saved the dinosaur from being destroyed though. {{storylink|Return of the Dino Bot}} His journey to school was cut short when [[Blades (RB)|his ride]] had to attend an emergency. The unexpected arrival of [[Thaddeus Morocco|Doctor Morocco]] and his [[MorBot]] resulted in the Rescue Bots being stood down, and Cody had to try and raise their spirits by relating the story of [[John Henry]]. A series of incidents got Cody suspicious of Morocco's motives. {{storylink|The Other Doctor}} When the little evidence he and Frankie had scrounged up was dismissed, he got Dani to take him up in Blades to try to spy on Morocco, and they were almost taken out by the MorBot. Undaunted, he and Frankie sneaked into the lab to access the computer. They were found by Morocco, but managed to escape to the doctor's airship, on which they found the proof they needed. Instructed by Dani, Cody managed to land the airship and the Rescue Bots trashed the pursuing MorBot. {{storylink|The Reign of Morocco}}

Cody visited the [[Hall of Inspiration]] with Graham and Boulder, and watched Doc Greene demonstrate the [[Minimizer]]. When there was a break-in at the Hall that night, the internal cameras were down and Cody was unable to see the device being used on Heatwave, Blades and Boulder. He only realized what had happened when Chase showed him a picture of the weapon, and subsequently got Doc Greene to fix the damaged Minimizer, so he could use it to return the three Rescue Bots to their normal size. {{storylink|Small Blessings}} After the rescue of [[Wild|Captain Wild]], Cody found a plate with an intriguing dragon design. With the help of Graham, Doc Greene and the Bots, he tracked down information on [[Anna Baranova|Professor Anna Baranova]] and her attempt to investigate the [[Griffin Rock Triangle]]. This culminated in him joining a mission to the Triangle itself, where they found Baranova still living in the ''[[Midgard]]'', and Cody talked her into completing her original plan to seal the methane vent causing the ship disappearances. {{storylink|The Griffin Rock Triangle}}

[[Image:TheLostBell Lad Pioneer Cody.jpg|thumb|right|200px]]
Chief Burns invited Cody along to do a security check on [[Griffin Crest]]. After a brief run-in with a bear, Cody made a brief garbled phone call back to base which resulted in the Rescue Bots racing to the crest. Cody and his dad were unable to render any assistance when the bots were immobilized by the [[Electromagnetic pulse|EM field]], but after the crisis was over, they continued with their camping. {{storylink|Rules and Regulations}} Cody's [[Lad Pioneer]] practice was interrupted by a storm hitting the town, during which he and the Rescue Bots were swept out to sea. They washed up on an uninhabited island, where Cody used his Lad Pioneer skills to survive, and they stumbled on the old pirate ship, the ''[[Oaken Crow]]''. They were thus able to return to Griffin Rock with the [[Settlers' Bell]], which had been stolen by pirates in the nineteenth century. {{storylink|The Lost Bell}}

While stargazing with the Bots, Cody spotted a meteor crashing on [[Wayward Island]], and accompanied the others out there the next day. When Heatwave, Boulder and Chase mysteriously seized up, Cody released that the meteorite was the common element, and the team, along with [[Bumblebee (WFC)|Bumblebee]] paid another visit to the island, though Cody was stuck monitoring things from the station. By the end of the adventure, he could even understand Bumblebee's beeping. {{storylink|Bumblebee to the Rescue (RB)|Bumblebee to the Rescue}} Doc Greene gave Cody some [[anti-gravity sneaker]]s to test, and Cody put them to good use cheating at basketball. Shortly after, Cody was called to the lab to help test [[Squilsh]], but when a sample came to life and started eating things, he alerted the rest of the team. After it was neutralized, Cody took a Squilsh-powered lava lamp back to the station to present to Graham. {{storylink|You've Been Squilshed}}

Cody worked with Frankie and the rest of the team to work out why the townspeople were disappearing. When they learned that [[Tracer (RB)|tracer]] bugs were teleporting people to an unknown location, he and Frankie went to the lab and learned that the target location was the largest cavern under Griffin Rock. Cody managed to get the information to Heatwave before he was teleported by the bugs, and the Rescue Bots subsequently rescued him and the rest of the townsfolk. {{storylink|Countdown (RB)|Countdown}} When a number of ghosts infested Griffin Rock, Cody researched the people who were appearing, and with the help of Frankie and Doc Greene, worked out that the ghosts were actually holograms. {{storylink|The Haunting of Griffin Rock}}

[[Image:RescueBoy Cody powers up.jpg|thumb|left|280px]]
When Chase and the Chief went missing, Cody helped the others track the pair to the lead mine, and spotted Chase's footprints at the bottom of a hole. He, Kade and Heatwave were able to locate the Chief in the rapidly-flooding mine and took part in the rescue. {{storylink|Little White Lies}} Cody found himself having to try to steer Frankie away from filming the Rescue Bots when she decided to make a film. When he was caught in an earthquake on [[Lake Street]], she even turned out to be nearby, and she and Cody were almost squished by a falling dish. {{storylink|Shake Up}} After Cody made an ill-advised rescue of [[Sharma|Mr Sharma]] and got caught in an unstable building, Chief Burns wanted to restrict him to following rescues from the fire station. He and the bots tried to work out a solution, leading Cody to have Doc Greene create a repulsor badge. The badge's powers turned Cody into a superhero dubbed "Rescue Boy", but his misuse of it eventually caused it to overload, trapping him in a bubble of energy. With the Bots help, he got free and realized that he wasn't yet ready to be a rescue hero. {{storylink|Rescue Boy}}

Cody accidentally stumbled on a secret room under the lab containing a prototype time machine. During the first test, he, Frankie and the Rescue Bots were pulled to [[1939]] where they encountered Doctor Morocco and [[Elma Hendrickson]]. Escaping the doctor's clutches, they tracked down [[Dither]], whom they needed to operate the time machine to get them back, and mounted a rescue of the Rescue Bots, whom Morocco had as prisoners. With the help of [[Optimus Prime (WFC)|Optimus Prime]] and Bumblebee, the group escaped back to [[2012]], only to find Doctor Morocco was in charge. {{storylink|It's a Bot Time}} In the strange altered present, the two kids employed some detective work to find out they'd accidentally changed history by leaving Dither in the past. After an encounter with an alternate version of Cody's family, Cody, Frankie and the Bots returned to 1939 to retrieve Dither, and returned to a restored 2012. {{storylink|Bot to the Future}}

With Doc Greene and Frankie in on the Rescue Bots' secret, Cody had trouble finding anyone to hang out with him, at least until he found himself transported around the island by Doc Greene's new [[Vacuum Accelerator]]. {{storylink|Road Trip}} When Cody learned about a invention competition, he tried to cooperate with Frankie on an entry, though after a disagreement, they opted to enter inventions separately. Cody created the [[sprinkler suit]], but ended up losing to Frankie's [[sky forest]]. The sprinkler suit ended up being useful when it turned out salt water was the only thing that would stop the sky forest's out-of-control vines after a mishap with an experimental rapid growth formula. {{storylink|Sky Forest}}

[[File:OneForTheAges adult Cody.jpg|thumb|right|300px]]
Cody was overjoyed when a lab accident aged him into a grown up as it meant he'd be able to go on rescue missions, however he soon found himself at odds with Kade, and began to realize that being an adult wasn't all it was cracked up to be. He and Kade were eventually able to get the stolen equipment back from Evan and Myles to return him to normal. {{storylink|One for the Ages}} Cody was on the [[Griffin Rock ferry|ferry]] during the discovery of an iceberg, which he, Dani and Blades later found to be the frozen ship [[S.S. Isolde]], on board which was the [[Sub-Zero Expander]], a device at imminent risk of causing a flash-freezing for five miles around it. Though Cody was left at base while the others attempted to destroy the device, he had to drive out on the [[Turbo Cycle (RB)|Turbo Cycle]] to help when it eventually triggered. He and the rest of the Burns family were also rescued when their sinking boat was unexpectedly saved by Morocco. {{storylink|Tip of the Iceberg}}

When most of the team were mesmerized by cellphones, Cody enlisted the help of Dani and Blades, however they were soon entranced as well. Cody found himself fleeing the mind-controlled townsfolk, until he and Boulder were able to take out the island's celltower, breaking the spell everyone was under. {{storylink|Spellbound}}

{{spoilers|A Virtual Disaster|April 5, 2014}}
During a snow day, Cody took Blades to the Hall of Inspiration to try out Doc's newest virtual reality game, the ''[[Griffin Rock Element Quest 1.0]]''. Cody teaches Blades the ways of video games, such as special abilities, power-ups, and boss fights. After defeating level 1, the game begins to bug out and the bosses are able to hurt him and Blades. Despite the odds, Cody and Blades, with the help of Heatwave later on, defeat the game and are transported out safe and sound. {{storylink|A Virtual Disaster}}

[[Image:GrahamnBurns-charactermodel.jpg|right|250px|thumb|I have a [[hard hat]]. You probably haven't heard of them.]]
'''Graham Burns''' is the bookish younger member of the Burns family. An expert engineer, his only problem is he's not the best at communication. Teamed with the [[Rescue Bot]] [[Boulder]], he should be able to put his skills to good use, provided they can work together.

==Fiction==
===''Rescue Bots'' cartoon===
{{voiceactor|[[Shannon McKain]] (English)|[[Grzegorz Woś]] (Polish), [[Luis Leonardo Suárez]] (Latin American-Spanish)}}
Graham was at the dedication of the dedication of the new rescue robots with his brother [[Kade Burns|Kade]] and sister [[Dani Burns|Dani]] when an alert came through of a fire at the [[Griffin Rock natural history museum|natural history museum]]. He headed there in his new bulldozer, though the robot seemed oddly concerned about spoiling the plaza's aesthetics when he tried to move the planters. That night, the trio were further startled when their vehicles went off on their own to chase a [[Trex|robotic ''Tyrannosaurus rex'']]. At [[Cody Burns|Cody]]'s suggestion, Graham used his bulldozer-bot to extract a jail cell from the police station so Dani could use her helicopter to trap the [[dinosaur (dinosaur)|dinosaur]]. It was only later that [[Charlie Burns|Chief Burns]] revealed that the four robots were aliens. {{storylink|Family of Heroes}}

[[Image:UnderPressure Graham pinball.jpg|thumb|left|250px|Graham doesn't know [[Michael Bay]] rigged the game to blow.]]
With this revelation, Graham found it difficult to work with Boulder because he couldn't work out what a lowly human could offer a technologically-advanced alien, and even Cody's attempt to get them to bond failed. When they had to deal with [[Mount Magma]], Cody gave Graham advice over the radio and got him to work together to locate the volcano's main control, and later map the underground tunnels to track the lava flow as it headed for the bunker. {{storylink|Under Pressure}}

Graham and Boulder tried to stop [[Doc Greene]]'s out-of-control car with an improvised spike strip which proved ineffective. After the rescue, Dani fitted [[Blades (RB)|Blades]] with a scoop claw, resulting in the pair hogging all the rescues, including clearing a road which Boulder and Graham were about to do. Graham and Kade tried to take their concerns to Dani, but it was only after they had to come to her and Blades's rescue that the scoop claw was put in storage. {{storylink|Hotshots}} When the [[Lobster and Technology Festival]] was attacked by [[flobster]]s, Graham and Boulder helped by scooping them up after Doc Greene's new compound removed their ability to fly. {{storylink|Flobsters on Parade}}

The pair assisted in preventing a potentially disastrous spill of hazardous materials. When [[Huxley Prescott]] caused everyone to believe aliens were invading, they paid a visit to [[Perkins (RB)|Mr Perkins]]'s farm to find there were only cows there. After the power went out, Graham visited the [[Griffin Rock power plant|power plant]] and determined that Prescott's [[SETI]] dish was the cause of the problem. {{storylink|The Alien Invasion of Griffin Rock}} After a [[Whiskers|lion]] and some lemurs escaped from [[Griffin Rock Zoo|the zoo]], Graham and Boulder used some lemur feed to lure the lemurs back to their enclosure. {{storylink|Walk on the Wild Side}}

[[Image:CodyOnPatrol Graham with laser pointer.jpg|thumb|right|280px|Time to bust some ghosts!]]
Though their attempt to stop [[Harrison (RB)|Mr Harrison]]'s heli-pack ride didn't go so well, the pair later helped quell some rampaging [[Nanite|nanites]]. {{storylink|Cody on Patrol}} During repair work on a bridge, Graham watched in amazement as an idiot tried to jump the gap on a motorcycle and fell short. He and Boulder took part in a rescue operation when the bank was in danger of falling into a sinkhole, and Graham stuck his arm into a sewer pipe to retrieve the [[Rubber Ducky]] that was blocking it. {{storylink|Four Bots and a Baby}} During a snowfall, Graham stood watch so the Rescue Bots could have some fun in the snow. When the weather machine they were using to create the snow went out of control, he and Boulder helped Doc Greene take the machine back to his lab for repairs. {{storylink|Christmas in July}}

Graham, Kade, and Dani used excuses to get out of the annual Burns fishing trip, but later changed their minds and arrived on the pier to discover they'd missed out on the [[shark submarine|giant mechanical shark]]. {{storylink|Deep Trouble}} When the island's technology ran loose as a result of the mainframe being hacked, Graham and Boulder had to help get Mayor Luskey out of the town hall. {{storylink|Return of the Dino Bot}} The arrival of [[Thaddeus Morocco|Doctor Morocco]] and his [[MorBot]] resulted in the entire team being stood down, after they failed to compete against the newcomer. {{storylink|The Other Doctor}} As the Rescue Bots tried to adjust to their new life, Graham found himself being subjected to [[Chase (RB)|Chase]]'s pea soup and had to politely decline. He and the team finally got back into action when they had to attend a fire at the lab, and the discovery of new information about Morocco resulted in the team being reinstated for good. {{storylink|The Reign of Morocco}}

[[Image:GriffinRockTriangle Graham goes swimming.jpg|thumb|left|230px|"Umm, could somebody call [[Depth Charge (BW)|a metal stingray]], please?"]]
Graham went to the [[Hall of Inspiration]] to do a safety check and took Cody and Boulder along. That night the hall was broken into, and when the team attended to it, Graham, Kade and Dani lost their robot partners. Graham and Dani monitored [[Griffin Rock dam]] from the fire station after it put out an electronic alarm. {{storylink|Small Blessings}} After Cody found a lead about a particular tunnel in the cave network, he enlisted Graham and the bots to help him find it. They discovered a small station in which Graham and Cody briefly got caught in an airlock, and it was only through quick thinking that they got out. A videotape they found led the team to venture into the [[Griffin Rock Triangle]] where they found [[Anna Baranova|Professor Baranova]] still living in the crashed ''[[Midgard]]'' and helped her complete her mission to seal the methane vent that had been causing the ship sinkings. {{storylink|The Griffin Rock Triangle}}

After the Chief went off to check the [[Griffin Crest]] security, Graham, Dani and Kade had to head there to rescue three of the Rescue Bots after they were caught in the [[Electromagnetic pulse|EMP]] field. {{storylink|Rules and Regulations}} When a storm hit Griffin Rock, Graham helped secure the town and searched for Cody on the ''[[Darby Ava]]'' after his brother was swept out to sea. {{storylink|The Lost Bell}} Graham accompanied the team on a mission to [[Wayward Island]] to investigate a meteorite. After Heatwave, Boulder and Chase were infected by a virus from the meteorite, the Burns family returned to the island, but Graham was knocked overboard when the boat hit rocks, and had to be rescued by [[Bumblebee (WFC)|Bumblebee]]. He subsequently got to repair the ''Darby Ava''<nowiki>'s</nowiki> engine so they could get back to Griffin Rock. {{storylink|Bumblebee to the Rescue (RB)|Bumblebee to the Rescue}}

[[Image:Countdown Graham examines bug.jpg|thumb|right|280px|"Are you doing science again?"]]
Having applied to [[Gremsky Technical Institute]], Graham received a letter signifying his acceptance, though he was unsure as to whether he'd go or not. During a subsequent call out when they had to deal with a rampaging blob of [[Squilsh]], Graham talked about going to Gremsky with Boulder. He and Boulder used their engineering skills to stop the blob, after which Graham ultimately realized that he'd be able to learn more by being part of the team. {{storylink|You've Been Squilshed}} Following the disappearance of most of the townsfolk, Graham dissected a mechanical bug Chase caught and discovered it contained a quantum [[subspace]] wormhole generator. Before he could expound on his plan to deal with the problem of finding where it was transporting people to, he was teleported to a cavern under Griffin Rock where he found the rest of the townspeople. Though he took part in an effort to dig themselves out, ultimately they were rescued by the Rescue Bots. {{storylink|Countdown (RB)|Countdown}}

Graham and the rest of the team attended a call out to the bank where they encountered what appeared to be a ghost. The town was soon overrun by them, and Graham attempted to use Doc Greene's [[Spectral Vapor Filter]] on one, to limited effect. It later turned out the ghosts were simply [[hologram]]s anyway. {{storylink|The Haunting of Griffin Rock}} During a Kade-initiated race, Graham and Boulder managed to demolish the [[Horace Burns]] statue. When Chase and the Chief went missing, Graham and the rest of the team searched all night, and were eventually led to the lead mine. He and Dani accompanied Boulder and Blades into the mine to search, finding Chase and helping him break out. {{storylink|Little White Lies}}

[[Image:ShakeUp Graham tracks signal.jpg|thumb|left|230px|Not quite ready for a close-up just yet.]]
After an earthquake struck the town, forcing the team to go into rescue mode, Graham traced the source of the tremors to a location in the tunnels under Griffin Rock. There, they located a storage area of inventions, including a huge subwoofer. Graham eventually tracked the wireless signal controlling it back to the jukebox in the Hall of Inspiration collection. {{storylink|Shake Up}} After Cody got a repulsor badge, he assisted Graham in changing a tire, but his use of the device started getting out of control. Graham and the rest of the team eventually had to save him from the overloading badge. {{storylink|Rescue Boy}}

Graham got help with his engineering homework from Boulder. The pair attended the testing of a [[Temporal Station|time machine]], and Graham's partner was transported back to 1939 with the other Bots. {{storylink|It's a Bot Time}} In an alternate reality created when history was changed, Graham and his brother and sister were mechanics. The trio constructed the [[Mobile Headquarters]] to combat the ruling Doctor Morocco's MorBots, though in the end they didn't use it until they needed to get a group of time traveling Rescue Bots back to their time machine. {{storylink|Bot to the Future}}

Graham installed a mobile version of the command center in the Mobile HQ. He later joined the chase to find the Mobile HQ after it was teleported around the island. {{storylink|Road Trip}} He and the rest of the team had to save the town's citizens when the plants in Frankie's [[sky forest]] grew out of control. {{storylink|Sky Forest}} The team had to had to deal with Cody being aged to an adult as well as a rocket that had become tangled in power lines. {{storylink|One for the Ages}}

When an iceberg was discovered that was actually a frozen [[S.S. Isolde|ship]] carrying a dangerous [[Sub-Zero Expander]], Graham took part in an attempt to get rid of the device by blowing it up, which was aborted when it turned out Doctor Morocco had claimed the vessel as salvage. The team had to deal with the fallout when the device exploded and froze a five-mile section of ocean. At one point, Graham lost his [[hard hat]]. Graham and the other human members of the team were also saved when their sinking boat was unexpectedly saved by Morocco. {{storylink|Tip of the Iceberg}} Graham and the rest of the team were mesmerized by cellphones, forcing them to mine [[Blossom Vale]] until the spell was broken by the destruction of the cell tower. {{storylink|Spellbound}}

[[Image:Kade Burns profile.jpg|thumb|right|250px|''[[Transformers: Prime (cartoon)| Prime]]'' has [[Jack Darby (Prime)|Peter Parker]], ''Rescue Bots'' has Flash Thompson.]]
'''Kade Burns''' went from high school star quarterback to firefighter, and carried his ego over between vocations. He can often be a jerk to his siblings, especially [[Cody Burns|Cody]], and he has trouble working with others, especially [[Heatwave (RB)|Heatwave]]. Perhaps his partnership with the [[Rescue Bot]] will temper him somewhat.

==Fiction==
===''Rescue Bots'' cartoon===
{{voiceactor|[[Jason Marsden]] (English)|[[Nico Sablik]] (German), [[Kamil Dominiak]] (Polish), [[Arturo Cataño]] (Latin American-Spanish)}}
Kade took part in a dedication ceremony during which [[Charlie Burns|Chief Burns]] unveiled the town's new emergency rescue robots, though Kade was started when his fire engine transformed without prompting to take him to the [[Griffin Rock natural history museum|museum]] to attend to a fire. After Kade put the fire out, he was again surprised by his fire engine robot saving his father and brother [[Graham Burns|Graham]] from a falling dinosaur head, but was all too happy to take the credit. That night, he was annoyed when his other brother, Cody, appeared to have commandeered his fire engine to chase around a rogue [[Trex|robot ''Tyrannosaurus rex'']] from the museum. He was even more taken aback when the fire engine robot assisted in taking down the dinosaur by transforming and throwing the ''T. rex'' around. Chief Burns revealed that the four robots were actually aliens. {{storylink|Family of Heroes}}

This revelation didn't help, as Kade had trouble with the idea his fire engine was an [[Autobot]] and could drive itself. After Cody attempted to get him and Heatwave to bond, Kade turned up to the next disaster with a real fire engine, only for it to be destroyed by the lava, requiring him to be rescued by Heatwave. As they later fought to stop [[Mount Magma]] from erupting, Heatwave and Kade were forced to try to stop the lava flow from reaching the bunker under the fire station. When they ran out of water, Kade opted to stay by Heatwave's side. Luckily, [[Dani Burns|Dani]] and [[Blades (RB)|Blades]] came to their rescue with the contents of a water tower. {{storylink|Under Pressure}}

[[Image:AlienInvasion Kade.jpg|thumb|left|250px]]
Kade and Heatwave teamed up again to help save [[Doc Greene]] after the scientist's experimental car went out of control. Kade became disgruntled when Dani fitted a scoop claw to Blades, and the pair started hogging all the rescue action, and took his concerns to his sister. Things seemed to go much smoother after the others had to rescue Blades, Dani and Cody following a lightning strike, and Blades decided to put the claw in storage. {{storylink|Hotshots}} Following another rescue of Doc Greene in which Kade and Heatwave had to retrieve him from a building, the Rescue Bots were to have taken part in a technology parade, but Heatwave had "engine trouble". Kade was just relieved he would have a break from hanging around with Heatwave, but when the [[Lobster and Technology Festival]] was attacked by [[flobster]]s, he was forced to call the fire station to try to cajole Heatwave into coming to help. {{storylink|Flobsters on Parade}}

He and Heatwave rescued [[Edgar Prewett]] from a truck dangling over a cliff. The pair also attempted to help residents of Griffin Rock after [[Huxley Prescott]] caused a mass panic by reporting an alien invasion. {{storylink|The Alien Invasion of Griffin Rock}} After a [[Whiskers|lion]] and some lemurs escaped from [[Griffin Rock Zoo|the zoo]], Kade and Heatwave took part in the effort to round them up. {{storylink|Walk on the Wild Side}}

[[Image:FourBotsBaby Kade holding Robo-Baby.jpg|thumb|right|270px]]
Though their attempt to stop [[Harrison (RB)|Mr Harrison]] by spraying him with water didn't work, the pair later helped stop rampaging nanites who took over [[Boulder]]. {{storylink|Cody on Patrol}} During a bridge repair job, Kade and Heatwave had to rescue an impatient motorist who plunged into the river, though Kade was almost swept over a waterfall in the process. He also attended a call out when the bank was in danger of falling into a sink hole. Cody deprived him of the chance to test Doc Greene's [[Turbo Cycle (RB)|Turbo Cycle]], and instead he got stuck babysitting the [[Robo-Baby]] for a week. {{storylink|Four Bots and a Baby}} On a hot summer day, Kade and Heatwave helped kids cool off by using Heatwave's fire hose as a sprinkler. After Cody had the idea to use a weather machine to create snow, he joined in a snowball fight, and helped the town residents when the machine went out of control. {{storylink|Christmas in July}}

Kade, Dani and Graham used excuses to get out of the annual Burns fishing trip, but later changed their minds and arrived on the pier to discover they'd missed out on the [[shark submarine|giant mechanical shark]]. {{storylink|Deep Trouble}} When the island's mainframe caught a virus and all the technology ran rampant, Kade and Heatwave had to get Mayor Luskey out of the town hall. {{storylink|Return of the Dino Bot}} The arrival of [[Thaddeus Morocco|Doctor Morocco]] and his [[MorBot]] resulted in the entire team being stood down, after they failed to compete against the newcomer. {{storylink|The Other Doctor}} Kade did his best to reassure Heatwave that they were both far from useless now the MorBot was doing the rescuing. They got the chance to see action again when the team was called to the lab to attend to a fire, and the discovery of new information about Morocco resulted in the team being reinstated for good. {{storylink|The Reign of Morocco}}

[[Image:SmallBlessings Kade rescues Hayley.jpg|thumb|left|350px]]
Ignoring Dani's offers of help, Kade insisted on rescuing [[Hayley]] and subsequently scored a date with the girl. Kade's equally-reckless actions during a break-in at the [[Hall of Inspiration]] resulted in Heatwave, Boulder and Blades being shot with the [[Minimizer]] and disappearing. When there was an alert at the [[Griffin Rock dam]], Kade headed there in his old truck and almost came unstuck when the platform he was on started to fall, but was saved by the three shrunken bots. {{storylink|Small Blessings}} Kade and the team went on a mission into the [[Griffin Rock Triangle]] to find [[Anna Baranova|Professor Baranova]], and he was taken aback when it appeared as though she didn't want to be rescued. After Cody talked her around, the team helped her seal the methane vent that had been causing the ship sinkings. {{storylink|the Griffin Rock Triangle}}

Left in charge of the team, Kade promptly went off to see a movie with Hayley. As a result, he was unreachable until [[Chase (RB)|Chase]] faked a litter emergency and Dani dragged him back to the station so they could head to [[Griffin Crest]] and bail out the Rescue Bots. {{storylink|Rules and Regulations}} When a storm hit Griffin Rock, Kade helped secure the town and searched for Cody on the ''[[Darby Ava]]'' after his brother was swept out to sea. {{storylink|The Lost Bell}} Kade accompanied the team on a mission to [[Wayward Island]] to investigate a meteorite. When Heatwave, Boulder and Chase were subsequently stricken by a strange virus, Kade seemed to enjoy the fact that he was the one driving, at least at first. He and the rest of the family later returned to the other island to get a sample of the meteorite so they could find a cure. {{storylink|Bumblebee to the Rescue (RB)|Bumblebee to the Rescue}}

[[Image:Countdown Kade with rolling pin.jpg|thumb|right|230px]]
Kade was put out by Cody using [[anti-gravity sneaker]]s during their basketball match. When Cody later called him from the lab to warn him about the rampaging blob of [[Squilsh]], Kade took some convincing before he called out the team. They eventually tracked the Squilsh to the [[Griffin Rock Community Pool]], where Graham and Boulder took care of it. {{storylink|You've Been Squilshed}} When the townspeople started rapidly disappearing thanks to some [[Tracer (RB)|mechanical bugs]], the team retreated back to the fire station where Kade made a pain of himself while Graham tried to dissect a bug they'd caught. When it turned out to be part of the [[Sanctuary Plan]] project, Kade took Cody and [[Frankie Greene|Frankie]] to the lab to check the information there, but was teleported by the bugs to an underground cavern and had to be rescued with the rest of the townsfolk. {{storylink|Countdown (RB)|Countdown}}

On hearing reports of a ghost, Kade scoffed. After encountering a ghost at the bank and in a restaurant which he saved from a fire, he became very unnerved indeed. As he and the team attended more sightings, it turned out that the ghosts were merely [[hologram]]s used by [[Myles]] and [[Evan (RB)|Evan]] to spread panic, and Kade regained his confidence, at least up until the point where they discovered that there wasn't a hologram in the database for one of the ghosts he saw. {{storylink|The Haunting of Griffin Rock}} Kade challenged Graham to a race that went badly wrong, damaging a statue and fire hydrant. When Chase and the Chief went missing, Kade and the others stayed out all night looking for them. They eventually tracked the pair to the lead mine, where Kade attempted to rescue the Chief from a flooded cavern. {{storylink|Little White Lies}}

Kade was keen to appear in Frankie's school film, but her filming caused the team problems as the Bots were forced to act like robots whenever she was around. {{storylink|Shake Up}} He and the rest of the team attended a pyrotechnics factory fire. When Cody endangered himself, the boy got Doc Greene to create a repulsor badge and Kade was there for the first tests. Later, after Kade failed to rescue [[Billy (RB)|Billy]] from the top of a transmitter, "Rescue Boy" saved Billy instead, but the repulsor badge overloaded, requiring Kade and the rest of the team to rescue Cody. {{storylink|Rescue Boy}}

He managed to rope Heatwave into attending a photo op with Hayley's class of preschoolers. The pair attended the testing of a [[Temporal Station|time machine]], and Kade's partner was transported back to 1939 with the other Bots. {{storylink|It's a Bot Time}} In an alternate reality created when history was changed, Kade and his siblings were mechanics. The trio constructed the [[Mobile Headquarters]] to combat the ruling Doctor Morocco's MorBots, though in the end they didn't use it until they needed to get a group of time traveling Rescue Bots back to their time machine. {{storylink|Bot to the Future}}

[[File:OneForTheAges kid Kade.jpg|thumb|left|200px]]
While planning another date with Hayley, Kade found himself being taken on a ride in the Mobile HQ, and subsequently had to make repairs, though he lost his toolbox to Doc Greene's new [[Vacuum Accelerator]]. During the rescue of [[Taylor]], Kade and the rescuee were swept away by a wind gust and deposited in dense forest, where Kade sprained his ankle and had to be saved from a bear by Taylor. They were eventually rescued by the rest of the family. {{storylink|Road Trip}} He and the rest of the team had to save the town's citizens when the plants in Frankie's [[sky forest]] grew out of control. {{storylink|Sky Forest}} When Chief Burns was out with the flu, Kade took command. It wasn't long before he found himself contending with Cody who had been aged into an adult in a lab experiment gone wrong. While pursuing Evan and Myles, who had stolen part of the equipment needed, Kade was deaged into a child, but still managed to help Cody and the Bots capture the two criminals. {{storylink|One for the Ages}}

When an iceberg was discovered that was actually a frozen [[S.S. Isolde|ship]] carrying a dangerous [[Sub-Zero Expander]], Kade took part in an attempt to get rid of the device by blowing it up, which was aborted when it turned out Doctor Morocco had claimed the vessel as salvage. The team had to deal with the fallout when the device exploded and froze a five-mile section of ocean, as well as trapping them in their Bots. Kade and the other human members of the team were also saved when their sinking boat was unexpectedly saved by Morocco. {{storylink|Tip of the Iceberg}} Kade and the rest of the team were mesmerized by cellphones, forcing them to mine [[Blossom Vale]] until the spell was broken by the destruction of the cell tower. {{storylink|Spellbound}}

:''Charlie Burns is a [[human]] from the [[Transformers: Rescue Bots (franchise)|Rescue Bots]] portion of the [[Aligned continuity family]].''

[[Image:Charlie Burns profile.jpg|300px|thumb|Of all the Charlie Burnses in the world, you're the Charlie Burnsiest.]]

Along with [[Heatwave (RB)|Heatwave]], Chief '''Charles "Charlie" Burns''', leads the [[Rescue Bot]]s, a secret team of [[Autobot]]s and humans that protect [[Earth]], and especially [[Griffin Rock]] island, from fires, floods, disaster and crime. His tool of choice is the [[Rescue Cutter]], which can tear down barriers between heroes and the danger they must extinguish. He partners with [[Chase (RB)|Chase]] and [[Optimus Prime (WFC)|Optimus Prime]]. He is the father of [[Kade Burns|Kade]], [[Graham Burns|Graham]], [[Dani Burns|Dani]], and [[Cody Burns|Cody]].

[[Image:ChiefCharlieBurns.jpg|left|thumb|150px|Here comes ol' Charlie Burns! Good ol' Charlie Burns...yes, sir! Good ol' Charlie Burns...how I hate him!]]

Early one morning at [[Fire Station Prime]], Chief Charlie directed [[Heatwave (RB)|Heatwave]] to participate in a fire training exercise on the other side of town. After Heatwave left, Chief Charlie's son Cody arrived, eager to be given his own mission. However, Chief Charlie only trusted Cody with washing [[Sparkplug (RB)|Sparkplug]], the firehouse dog. Though dejected, Cody and Sparkplug were able to alert Chief Charlie to the presence of an electrical fire within Fire Station Prime itself! Trapped on the roof of the burning station, the Burnses struggled to activate the [[Prime Signal]] to call for help, until ultimately Cody was able to activate it manually. Heatwave quickly returned, and Chief Charlie's son was surprised to learn that their fire truck was actually a fire-fighting sentient robot! After the fire was extinguished and the group spoke with Optimus Prime via teleconference, Chief Charlie nodded with approval as his son was welcomed as a full member of the team. {{storylink|Prime Alert}}

When he was young, Charlie Burns built himself a go-kart. {{Storylink|Cody on Patrol}} He, [[Doc Greene]] and [[Luskey|Mayor Luskey]] chased [[Thaddeus Morocco|Doctor Morocco]] out of town when his inventions were deemed unsafe. {{storylink|The Reign of Morocco}}

[[Image:FamilyofHeroes-Burnses.jpg|left|thumb|300px|One of the show's upcoming educational puzzles is determining what hair color genetics Charlie and his unseen mate possess which would have facilitated this range of hair color in their offspring.]]
As the head of a family of rescue heroes, Burns was entrusted by Optimus Prime with the secret that the new Rescue Bots were actually Autobots. He presented the quartet to the people of [[Griffin Rock]] as new hi-tech robots. When they attended a fire at the [[Griffin Rock natural history museum|museum]] and Heatwave saved Burns and [[Graham Burns|Graham]] from a falling dinosaur head, Burns covered for the Autobot. That night, the Rescue Bots contacted him, and he discovered that [[Cody Burns|Cody]] had discovered the secret. After the whole team united to stop a rogue robotic ''Tyrannosaurus rex'', he let [[Kade Burns|Kade]], [[Dani Burns|Dani]] and Graham in on the truth as well. {{storylink|Family of Heroes}}

Chief Burns and Chase stopped an out-of-control [[robo-landscaper]] while the rest of the team were busy failing to cooperate. He later alerted the rest of the team to the fact that lava was overflowing out of manholes across the town, and together with [[Chase (RB)|Chase]], made sure the residents were cleared from the area. When the problem was traced to [[Mount Magma]] and the rest of the team went to deal with the problem, Chief Burns and Chase patrolled the area around the mountain and cleared out campers. {{storylink|Under Pressure}}

Chief Burns accompanied Chase as they chased down [[Doc Greene]]'s out-of-control [[solar car]] and stopped it plunging into a ravine. He was with the team again as they responded to a rock fall. {{storylink|Hotshots}} He was helping Doc Greene inflate balloons with helium prior to the [[Lobster and Technology Festival]] when he and the Rescue Bots had to rescue the Doc from a runaway parade balloon. The next day the team was taking part in the parade when it came under attack from [[flobster]]s. They quickly swung into action once more, protecting the townsfolk from the flying threat until Doc Greene could mix up a permanent solution. {{storylink|Flobsters on Parade}}

[[Image:AlienInvasion Chief Burns facepalm.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Good grief.]]
Burns found himself covering for the Rescue Bots again after a rescue, but told them that saving lives had priority over maintaining cover. He and the family subsequently had to stop [[Huxley Prescott]] from inadvertently destroying the island with his [[SETI]] dish. {{storylink|The Alien Invasion of Griffin Rock}} After retrieving a cat from a tree, Burns decided to celebrate [[Earth Day]] by having everyone clean up the fire station. The next day, he and the team were faced with several escapees from the [[Griffin Rock Zoo|zoo]], including [[Whiskers|a lion]] and some trained lemurs. {{storylink|Walk on the Wild Side}}

Burns took part in the rescue of [[Harrison (RB)|Mr Harrison]] and was impressed when Cody rebuilt his old go-kart into [[Rolling Thunder]], though he turned down Cody's request to get a bigger engine for it. After Cody tried souping it up with nanites, Burns made him help [[Boulder]] replant the trees that had been knocked down in the ensuing chaos. {{storylink|Cody on Patrol}} Chase and the Chief were blocking traffic from trying to cross a damaged bridge when a man on a motorcycle zoomed past them. On another occasion, Burns supervised the operation to save the bank after a sinkhole opened under it. {{storylink|Four Bots and a Baby}}

[[Image:DeepTrouble Chief Burns apron.jpg|thumb|left|200px|AAUGH]]
During a heatwave, Burns discovered that Chase didn't have air conditioning. After Cody had the idea to use a weather machine to create snow, Burns joined in with a snow fight, but ended up having to go rescue people when the machine went out of control. {{storylink|Christmas in July}} Burns, Cody and the Rescue Bots went on the family annual fishing trip on the ''[[Darby Ava]]'', something Burns regarded as a way to bond. When they encountered a [[shark submarine|robotic shark]], Burns left his son on the pier while he and the bots tried to find the finned menace. Though Burns had a plan to lead the sub into a cove, it started attacking the [[Griffin Rock ferry]] instead, and Burns and [[Blades (RB)|Blades]] had to go to the assistance of the people on board. While they did so, the other Rescue Bots disabled the shark, but when Burns opened the sub, he triggered a self destruct, and Blade had to carry the vessel away before it exploded. {{storylink|Deep Trouble}}

On a particularly foggy day, Burns and his team had to deal with the island's technology run amok thanks to a virus in the central mainframe, and also the rogue [[Trex]], which was infected with the same virus. {{storylink|Return of the Dino
Bot}} He continued to educate Chase on compassionate policing. When Doctor Morocco returned to the island with a [[MorBot]], aiming to replace Burns's team, Burns argued against letting Morocco have the chance. He and his team were forced to compete against the MorBot, and eventually lost through the machinations of Morocco. The team was stood done. {{storylink|The Other Doctor}} Though Burns argued with the mayor and brought evidence that was disregarded, he refused to give up. When there was a fire at the lab, the team was finally called out to attend to it, and Cody and [[Frankie Greene]] managed to obtain evidence against Morocco that saw Burns's team reinstated. {{storylink|The Reign of Morocco}}

The silent alarm at the [[Hall of Inspiration]] had Chief Burns and his team attend it, but while Burns and Chase apprehended [[Evan (RB)|Evan]] and [[Myles]], the other three Rescue Bots went missing. Burns interrogated the pair at length as to the nature of the gun they'd used on the Bots without success. After Cody worked out it was the [[Minimizer]], Burns drove him to [[Griffin Rock dam]] where the three miniaturized Rescue Bots had ended up. {{storylink|Small Blessings}} Burns took part in the rescue of [[Wild|Captain Wild]]. When Cody turned up information about [[Anna Baranova|Professor Anna Baranova]], Chief Burns decided they'd go and check out the [[Griffin Rock Triangle]], where they found the professor still living in the crashed ''[[Midgard]]''. The team helped her to complete her mission, destroying the lab to seal the methane vent that had caused all the ship sinkings. {{storylink|The Griffin Rock Triangle}}

[[Image:RulesAndRegulations father and son.jpg|thumb|right|250px|Why can't I have an ordinary son like everybody else?]]
Wanting to spend some time with his kid, Chief Burns invited Cody along to do a security check on [[Griffin Crest]] and left the bots with strict orders not to follow them. After a brief run-in with a bear, the pair continued with their security check, unaware that the bots had been alarmed by Cody's garbled phone call. Later, having been chased up a cliff by the bear, Chief Burns and his son were unable to render any assistance when the bots were immobilized by the [[Electromagnetic pulse|EM field]], but after the crisis was over, they continued with their camping. {{storylink|Rules and Regulations}} When a storm hit Griffin Rock, Chief Burns called the whole team out to help secure the town, but Cody and the Rescue Bots were swept out to sea, forcing the family to go out searching for them on the ''Darby Ava''. {{storylink|The Lost Bell}}

He and the team went to [[Wayward Island]] to investigate a meteorite crash, and encountered [[Bumblebee (WFC)|Bumblebee]]. After three of the Rescue Bots were stricken with an alien virus, the Burns family returned to the island to get a sample of the meteorite and destroy the rest. Though they ran into problems with the rough seas, they succeeded. {{storylink|Bumblebee to the Rescue (RB)|Bumblebee to the Rescue}} Chief Burns took part in a call-out to deal with a rampaging blob of [[Squilsh]]. He was nearly eaten by it when he got his foot caught in a ladder, but it instead got Chase. Burns spent the remainder of the mission trying to contact Chase and coordinating with Cody and Doc Greene as they tried to find a way to stop the Squilsh. {{storylink|You've Been Squilshed}}

While Charlie Burns and Chase were dealing with some strange events involving disappearing people, Burns picked up a mechanical bug and was teleported to a cavern under Griffin Rock. He set about organizing the townspeople to try and break out of the cave, though in the end they were rescued by the Rescue Bots. {{storylink|Countdown (RB)|Countdown}} After the team had a series of call outs during which they encountered ghosts, Cody pointed Chief Burns to the fact that the ghosts were [[hologram]]s, and he visited the jail to discover that Myles and Evan had escaped. With Doc Greene's help, the Chief set a holographic trap and his team caught the pair in the act of robbing a jewelry story. {{storylink|The Haunting of Griffin Rock}}

On his birthday, as it appeared that the rest of the team had forgotten, the Chief lied about where he was going so he could pick up a cake from the bakery. When he and Chase later became trapped in the lead mine, the rest of the team didn't know where to look, and the pair were forced to try and make their way out themselves. During a cave-in, Chief was separated from Chase and injured by a falling rock, but luckily the rest of the team turned up in time to save him. {{storylink|Little White Lies}} When Frankie caused problems for the team by filming them, Chief reminded them they had to pretend to be regular robots, and did his best to keep her out of their way. When she followed them into the cave system when they were looking for the source of some earthquakes, the Chief and the Rescue Bots had to save her from a cave-in. {{storylink|Shake Up}}

Chief was disapproving of Cody risking his life in an unstable building. When Cody got hold of a repulsor badge and started acting as a superhero, the Chief eventually had to take the badge off him. Cody used the badge again, leading to it overloading and the Chief and the rest of the team had to extract him from an energy bubble. {{storylink|Rescue Boy}}

Chief Burns attended the first testing of a [[Temporal Station|time machine]] that Doc Greene had got working. When Cody, Frankie and the kids were transported back in time to [[1939]], Burns called in Optimus Prime as backup and filled in Greene on the existence of giant alien robots. {{storylink|It's a Bot Time}}

In an alternate reality caused by an alteration to history, Burns worked as the janitor in the Hall of Inspiration while Griffin Rock was ruled by Morocco. When he encountered the time traveling Rescue Bots, Cody and Frankie, he was initially suspicious of them, but took them home. Filled in on the altered reality, he helped the group return to the time machine so they could set history right. {{storylink|Bot to the Future}}

While the rest of the team were occupied with the new [[Mobile Headquarters]], Chief Burns and Chase continued to patrol for speeders. They had another chase on their hands when they had to find the Mobile HQ after it was teleported around the island. {{storylink|Road Trip}} When Luskey used an experimental rapid growth formula on the [[sky forest]], sending the vegetation out of control, Burns and his team had to save the citizens of Griffin Rock from it. {{storylink|Sky Forest}} A case of the flu prevented Chief Burns from pursuing Evan and Myles, and he spent some time in bed unaware of the adventure Cody was having in the meantime. {{storylink|One for the Ages}}

Chief Burns, Cody and Chase took a ride on the ferry after [[Arthur Shaw|Captain Shaw]] thought he spotted a sea monster. They instead discovered an iceberg that turned out to be the long lost [[S.S. Isolde]], the ship captained by Charlie's grandfather [[Zachary Burns]]. To prevent the [[Sub-Zero Expander]] it carried from doing any more damage, Chief Burns took part in an attempt to get rid of the device by blowing it up, which was aborted when it turned out Doctor Morocco had claimed the vessel as salvage. The team had to deal with the fallout when the device exploded and froze a five-mile section of ocean. Chief Burns and the other human members of the team were also rescued when their sinking boat was unexpectedly saved by Morocco. {{storylink|Tip of the Iceberg}} After finding a cellphone, Chief Burns became mesmerized by it, and began distributing cellphones to the other townsfolk. Under the devices' control, he and his team mined [[Blossom Vale]] until Cody and Boulder disabled the island's cell tower, breaking the spell. {{storylink|Spellbound}}

{{spoilers|A Virtual Disaster|April 5, 2014}}
After rescuing a skier on Mount Griffin, Chief Burns, along with the rest of the team, sought to find a solution to help Blades and Cody, who were trapped in a virtual reality game. He was later relieved when his youngest was unharmed. {{storylink|A Virtual Disaster}}

Being the only daughter of [[Charlie Burns]], '''Dani Burns''' feels she has a little extra to prove. However, she's easily as tough as her brothers, and she enjoys the danger and action involved with being part of the [[Rescue Bot]]s team. Her helicopter piloting skills and willingness to take risks help her to guide her acrophobic partner [[Blades (RB)|Blades]] through stressful situations.

==Fiction==
===''Rescue Bots'' cartoon===
{{voiceactor|[[Lacey Chabert]] (English)|[[Giuliana Jakobeit]] (German), [[Beata Jankowska-Tzimas]] (Polish)}}
Dani attended the dedication of the new rescue robots with brothers [[Kade Burns|Kade]] and [[Graham Burns|Graham]], however when they were called to the [[Griffin Rock natural history museum|natural history museum]] to deal with a fire, she found her [[Blades (RB)|new helicopter]] was reluctant to fly very high or fast and thus arrived late. That night, they were further startled when their vehicles went off on their own to chase a robotic ''Tyrannosaurus rex''. Dani used her helicopter to drop a metal cell on the [[dinosaur (dinosaur)|dinosaur]]. It was only later that their father revealed that the four robots were aliens. {{storylink|Family of Heroes}}

[[Image:UnderPressure Dani piloting.jpg|thumb|left|250px|Why won't these ghosts leave Pacman alone?]]
Dani and Blades continued having problems working together. [[Cody Burns|Cody]] interrupted Dani's rock climbing to try and assist, and eventually lured her, Kade and Graham to the bunker under the fire station in an attempt to get them to bond with their partners, but Dani's enthusiasm about flying just made Blades uncomfortable. When they subsequently had to deal with an active volcano, Dani had to cajole Blades into flying out of the ash cloud. When she later spotted that the lava was flowing into the tunnels leading to the bunker where Cody was, she managed to spur Blades into action so they could pick up a nearby water tower and dump it on the lava. {{storylink|Under Pressure}}

After feeling left out of a rescue, Dani went to [[Doc Greene]] and borrowed a scoop claw, which she attached to Blades. The pair were soon bogarting all the rescues with Blades's new attachment, and Kade and Graham registered their complaints with her. She took Blades out on patrol, but when the Autobot was forced down after being struck by lightning, she and Cody were in danger of being baked by a forest fire. After a rescue by the rest of the team, Dani and Blades opted to put the claw in storage until it was really needed. {{storylink|Hotshots}} During the preparations for the [[Lobster and Technology Festival]], Dani and Blades were called on to retrieve a runaway lobster parade balloon. They took part in the technology parade the next day, and when the festival was attacked by [[flobster]]s, the pair took part in the roundup operation so the flobsters could be neutralized. {{storylink|Flobsters on Parade}}

[[Image:WalkWildSide Dani ready to clean.jpg|thumb|right|230px|Gee. A stick. Thanks.]]
As the town panicked as a result of [[Huxley Prescott]] announcing an alien invasion, Dani and Blades tried to help the citizens, and had to tow the overloaded [[Griffin Rock ferry]] to safety. {{storylink|The Alien Invasion of Griffin Rock}} After [[Whiskers|a lion]] escaped from [[Griffin Rock Zoo]], Dani and Blades chased it around with a cage until they eventually caught it. {{storylink|Walk on the Wild Side}} Dani and her partner attempted to help [[Harrison (RB)|Mr Harrison]], but were forced to ask for help from the others. After Cody tried to soup up his go-kart [[Rolling Thunder]] with nanites, the pair were in time to save him from an out-of-control [[Scrapmaster]]. {{storylink|Cody on Patrol}} Dani and Blades later came to the rescue of Mr Harrison again when the bank was in danger of falling into a sinkhole. {{storylink|Four Bots and a Baby}}

During a snowstorm created by an out-of-control weather machine, Dani flew Blades upside-down to clear the roof of city hall of snow before it collapsed. They also helped motorists on a snowed-in bridge. {{storylink|Christmas in July}} Dani and Blades had to rescue the mayor's ship, the ''[[Floating Xanadu]]'', when it almost ran onto rocks. She gave an excuse to get out of the family's annual fishing trip, but she, Kade and Graham later changed their minds and arrived on the pier to discover they'd missed out on the [[shark submarine|giant mechanical shark]]. {{storylink|Deep Trouble}}

Dani, Blades and Cody went to rescue [[Frankie Greene|Frankie]] when it appeared she was in danger from a robot dinosaur, but it turned out the dinosaur was [[Trex]], the Greene's butler and guard dog. When Trex later went rogue, Dani and Blades had to fly Greene back to the lab to debug the beast. {{storylink|Return of the Dino Bot}} Dani was prevented from dropping Cody off at school by a call out. The arrival of [[Thaddeus Morocco|Doctor Morocco]] and his [[MorBot]] resulted in the entire team being stood down, after they failed to compete against the newcomer. {{storylink|The Other Doctor}} Cody got Dani to take him up in Blades so he could spy on Doctor Morocco, though they were attacked by the MorBot and pursued back to the station. Dani volunteered to take the blame for the venture. When the Rescue Bots were called to a fire at the lab, Dani was contacted by Cody, and instructed the boy in landing Morocco's airship. Cody and Frankie had found evidence condemning Morocco, resulting in the team being reinstated. {{storylink|The Reign of Morocco}}

Dani and Blades were prevented from rescuing [[Hayley]] by Kade, who wanted to do it himself so he could win Hayley over and get a date. When the team attended a break-in at the [[Hall of Inspiration]] and three of the Bots were shrunk, Dani mistook Blades for a fly and swatted him away. They continued on without the three missing bots, and when there was a problem at the dam, Dani and Graham observed it from base, and Dani spotted that Hayley's minivan was still blocking one of the overflow pipes. After the three Bots were returned to normal size, Dani had to clean the sewerage off Blades. {{storylink|Small Blessings}} During a nautical rescue, Dani and Blades were pulled underwater, but still managed to rescue [[Wild|Captain Wild]]. Information uncovered by Cody led the team to venture into the sea where they helped [[Anna Baranova|Professor Baranova]] seal the vent causing the [[Griffin Rock Triangle]]. {{storylink|The Griffin Rock Triangle}}

[[Image:RulesAndRegulations Dani takes Chase's call.jpg|thumb|left|260px|Oh hi! Didn't hear you come in.]]
While Chief Burns was out checking security at [[Griffin Crest]], Dani got a confusing call from [[Chase (RB)|Chase]] and had to drag Kade and Graham to the crest to rescue the other three Rescue Bots. {{storylink|Rules and Regulations}} When a storm hit Griffin Rock, Dani helped secure the town and met a young pilot named [[Taylor]] while she and Blades stopped a plane at the airport. She searched for Cody on the ''[[Darby Ava]]'' after her brother was swept out to sea. {{storylink|The Lost Bell}} Dani accompanied the team on a mission to [[Wayward Island]] to investigate a meteorite and acted as a spotter from the air, though after they encountered [[Bumblebee (WFC)|Bumblebee]], she struggled to keep Blades on-mission. After [[Heatwave (RB)|Heatwave]], [[Boulder]] and Chase were stricken by a strange virus, the team returned to the island to get a sample of the meteorite and destroy the rest of it. They succeeded, and Dani took pictures of the Rescue Bots and their new friend together. {{storylink|Bumblebee to the Rescue (RB)|Bumblebee to the Rescue}}

During a call out concerning a rampaging blob of [[Squilsh]], Dani and Blades tracked the blob from the air. They were able to provide an airlift when the rest of the team cornered the Squilsh at the [[Griffin Rock Community Pool]]. {{storylink|You've Been Squilshed}} When the townspeople started rapidly disappearing, she and Blades saved Frankie from being likewise zapped by the [[Tracer (RB)|tracer]] bugs, before leading the bugs on a flight through the wind farm. Though they reached the fire station safely, Dani was later teleported to an underground cavern by the bugs, and had to be rescued with the rest of the townsfolk. {{storylink|Countdown (RB)|Countdown}}

When Griffin Rock has what appeared to be an infestation of ghosts, Dani had to deal not only with the ghosts, but a jumpy robot partner. Fortunately for them both, the ghosts turned out to be [[hologram]]s. {{storylink|The Haunting of Griffin Rock}} Dani made a cake for Chief Burns's birthday. When the Chief and Chase went missing, she took part in the search which eventually led to the old lead mine, and accompanied Boulder, Blades and Graham inside to search. After the missing pair were rescued, they had the Chief's birthday dinner and everyone pretended to like the cake. {{storylink|Little White Lies}}

[[Image:BotToTheFuture Dani hates flying.jpg|thumb|right|240px|That's not a seatbelt, that's just a sticker on Blades' cockpit.]]
When Frankie started filming the Bots during a rescue, Chief Burns got Dani to take her home so that the Bots could work without having to pretend to be robots. Dani and the rest of the team later tracked down the cause of the quakes—a subwoofer in underground storage. {{storylink|Shake Up}} After Cody got a repulsor badge and dubbed himself "Rescue Boy", Dani and the rest of the team had to put up with him taking part in emergencies. Eventually the badge overloaded and they had to rescue him from an energy bubble. {{storylink|Rescue Boy}}

Dani and Blades attended the testing of a [[Temporal Station|time machine]], and her partner was transported back to 1939 with the other Bots. {{storylink|It's a Bot Time}} In an alternate reality created when history was changed, Dani and her brothers were mechanics, and Dani was terrified of flying. The three siblings constructed the [[Mobile Headquarters]] to combat the ruling Doctor Morocco's MorBots, though in the end they didn't use it until they needed to get a group of time traveling Rescue Bots back to their time machine. {{storylink|Bot to the Future}}

[[File:RoadTrip Dani and Taylor.jpg|thumb|left|230px|"Sure, you can tie me up if you want to."]]
Dani got the chance to help in another rescue of Taylor, though when he and Kade ended up lost somewhere in dense forest, she instead ended up having to use Blades to retrieve the Mobile HQ from the top of [[Mount Griffin]] after a teleporter malfunction. She was reunited with Taylor after they tracked the missing pair down, and Kade suggested Taylor ask her out. {{storylink|Road Trip}} Dani and the rest of the team had to save the town's citizens when the plants in Frankie's [[sky forest]] grew out of control. {{storylink|Sky Forest}} The team had to had to deal with Cody being aged to an adult as well as a rocket that had become tangled in power lines. {{storylink|One for the Ages}}

After the discovery of an iceberg, Dani and Cody flew out in Blades, only to discover it was actually a frozen [[S.S. Isolde|ship]] carrying a dangerous [[Sub-Zero Expander]]. Dani subsequently took part in an attempt to get rid of the device by blowing it up, which was aborted when it turned out Doctor Morocco had claimed the vessel as salvage. The team had to deal with the fallout when the device exploded and froze a five-mile section of ocean. Dani and the other human members of the team were also saved when their sinking boat was unexpectedly saved by Morocco. {{storylink|Tip of the Iceberg}}

Following a night's patrolling, Dani found herself and Blades having to put out a fire after the rest of the team became mesmerized by cellphones. When they confronted the others, Dani and Blades were hypnotized as well, and helped in the mining of [[Blossom Vale]] until they were released from the spell. {{storylink|Spellbound}}

{{spoilers|A Virtual Disaster|April 5, 2014}}
Dani was confused and frustrated when Blades refused to cooperate when they were trying to save a downed skier from Mount Griffin during a snow storm. She later arrived with the rest of her family and the Bots to try to help Blades and Cody, who were trapped in a virtual reality game. {{storylink|A Virtual Disaster}}

{{voiceactor|[[Katherine McNamara]] (English)}}
Priscilla tested out her [[hoverpicker]] robot, though when it malfunctioned and ran amok, she was more concerned with the welfare of the hoverpicker than anything it had done. After informing [[Charlie Burns|Chief Burns]] that it was to be her entry in the upcoming invention contest to be judged by family friend [[Luskey|Mayor Luskey]], she told [[Cody Burns|Cody]] she'd see him at the competition. Unfortunately for her, [[Frankie Greene]]'s [[sky forest]] won the competition, and she icily informed Mayor Luskey that he shouldn't count on any future campaign contributions. After the completion of the sky forest, she paid it a visit and began having her hoverpicker pick as many flowers as it could. The picking was interrupted when she was attacked by a giant Venus flytrap, and she fed the hoverpicker to it in an attempt to escape. She was eventually rescued by [[Charlie Burns|Chief Burns]] and [[Chase (RB)|Chase]] and presented a bill for the hoverpicker to Mayor Luskey. {{storylink|Sky Forest}}

After losing her limited-edition [[Cathy (RB)|Cathy]] doll down the [[Old Hawkins Well]], Priscilla had the island's rescue team called in to retrieve it. They did so, though the doll got dirty, ruining its value, so she demanded her mother buy her a new one. She later found a cellphone under the seat of the limo, but her mother said it was a model that was being recalled. {{storylink|Spellbound}}

'''Madeline Pynch''' enjoys being rich, so above all she's motivated by profit. This drive to make more money will override any sort of ethics she might possibly possess and lead her to pursue methods that regular folk would find possibly just a little dodgy. Her daughter [[Priscilla Pynch|Priscilla]] has not fallen far from the tree.

Learning that [[Blossom Vale]] was on top of gold-rich land, Madeline attempted to have the area purchased by her company, only for the [[Griffin Rock]] council to block the sale. She had to instead put another plan into action, using cellphones to hypnotize the townsfolk and have them mine the vale themselves. While in the area of the vale, Priscilla dropped [[Cathy (RB)|her doll]] down a well, resulting in the town's rescue team being called in. Madeline made [[Charlie Burns|Chief Burns]] an offer for the [[Rescue Bot]]s, but was turned down. Her plan to mine the vale went into operation and managed to reap some reward before the cell tower was brought down, breaking the hypnotic hold over the town's residents, and she reflected that the cellphones put out would have to be much stronger. {{storylink|Spellbound}}

[[File:Spellbound Blossom Vale.jpg|thumb|right|500px]]
'''Blossom Vale''' is a particularly picturesque area of [[Griffin Rock]], with a waterfall, beach, and an abundance of flowers. The townspeople love it for its natural beauty, so much so that according to [[Chase (RB)|Chase]], there's 82% less litter there. As a popular recreation spot, it's afforded special protection by the council.

A developer attempted to purchase the area for redevelopment, but was turned down by the city council. The [[Rescue Bot]]s and their human partners later spent some time relaxing there until they were called to a [[Cathy (RB)|rescue]]. Desiring the gold under the vale, [[Madeline Pynch]] used cellphones to hypnotize the rescue team and many of the townspeople, resulting in the Rescue Bots being used to dig up and mine the vale, reducing much of it to a large pit before they were freed. In the aftermath, the Rescue Bots were ready to repair the damage themselves, but the townspeople turned out in force to help, bringing spades and new trees. {{storylink|Spellbound}}

With the help of his partner, the eager and daring rescue tech [[Dani Burns]], '''Blades''' the Copter-Bot struggles to overcome the fear of heights his new Earth-gained flying form has revealed. Young and unsure at times, Blades would prefer to be safe and on the ground...but he doesn't let that stop him when others are in danger. Overcoming his own fears to save others is part of what makes Blades a Rescue Bot and a true hero.

He has also been known to work with [[Sawyer Storm]] and is a huge admirer of [[Bumblebee (WFC)|Bumblebee]].

===''Rescue Bots'' cartoon===
{{voiceactor|[[Parvesh Cheena]] (English)|[[Bernhard Völger]] (German), [[Klaudiusz Kaufmann]] (Polish), [[Moisés Ivan Mora]] (Latin American-Spanish)}}
Blades was part of a team of [[Rescue Bot]]s drifting through space when their spaceship received a transmission from [[Optimus Prime (WFC)|Optimus Prime]] and landed on [[Earth]]. After dropping the bombshell that [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] was no more, Optimus assigned the team to [[Griffin Rock]] to work with the Burns family. Blades was not keen on the helicopter [[alternate mode]] he was forced to take, as his previous form had wheels and he was afraid of heights. The four Rescue Bots were presented to the public by [[Charlie Burns|Chief Burns]] at a ceremony, following which Blades discovered that his new partner, [[Dani Burns]], could yell really loud when she wanted him to fly faster as they went to the [[Griffin Rock natural history museum|museum]] to attend to a fire. That night, [[Cody Burns]] discovered the Rescue Bots' secret, and after they helped stop a rogue robot ''Tyrannosaurus rex'', Chief Burns revealed the truth to the rest of the team. {{storylink|Family of Heroes}}

Dani and Blades continued to have trouble working together, arriving late to an emergency. Cody tried unsuccessfully to get the pair to bond, until there was another emergency when [[Mount Magma]] began threatening the island with lava. Blades and Dani operated the switch to open the volcano's crater as a relief measure, but when they were subsequently caught in an ash cloud, Dani had to cajole a panicking Blades into flying out of it. He managed to earn her respect when he subsequently braved the ash to pick up a water tower and douse the lava with it. {{storylink|Under Pressure}}

[[Image:Hotshots Blades with scoopclaw belly.jpg|thumb|left|250px]]
After Blades felt like he wasn't contributing enough, Dani fitted a scoop claw to him, something he wasn't that enthusiastic about, and made him look fat in robot mode. The claw soon proved its worth, though the other Rescue Bots were annoyed Blades and Dani were hogging all the rescues and even threatened to forcibly remove it. When during a patrol, Blades was forced down by a lightning strike, the other Rescue Bots came to his aid, and he and Dani decided to use the claw scoop a little less often in the future. {{storylink|Hotshots}} Blades and Dani retrieved a lobster parade balloon after it carried away Doc Greene. Three of the Rescue Bots took part in the technology parade during the [[Lobster and Technology Festival]] but the town was attacked by [[flobster]]s, who seemed to have a liking for Blades's face. He and Dani helped round them up using a cage and the lobster balloon, so they could be neutralized. Afterwards, Blades finally worked out the joke. {{storylink|Flobsters on Parade}}

[[Image:FourBotsBaby Blades lowers harness.jpg|thumb|right|240px]]
After helping prevent a hazardous chemical spill, the Rescue Bots were forced to endure a screening of ''[[The Natives of Tatui]]'' that resulted in [[Huxley Prescott]] causing a mass panic when he reported an alien invasion. The Rescue Bots had to help during the ensuing chaos and destroyed Huxley's [[SETI]] dish to avoid the island's destruction. {{storylink|The Alien Invasion of Griffin Rock}} After Boulder got the idea to adopt a pet, Blades helped him by shutting down the power to [[Griffin Rock Zoo]]. They spent the rest of the night trying to find the [[Whiskers|lion]] that Boulder had let loose, and Blades ended up catching it in a cage. {{storylink|Walk on the Wild Side}}

After Cody souped up a go-kart, Blades was worried he wouldn't want to hang out with them any more. The go-kart turned sour when Cody tried to soup it up with nanites, which instead ran rampant, and the Rescue Bots had to help him. {{storylink|Cody on Patrol}} Cody roped the Rescue Bots into helping him take care of a [[Robo-Baby]]. They found Blades's rotors had a soothing effect on the baby and put it to sleep. When the bank was in danger of falling into a sinkhole, Blades and Dani had to rescue [[Harrison (RB)|Mr Harrison]] again, and in the meantime the baby escaped from the fire station, forcing Cody and the Rescue Bots to track it down. {{storylink|Four Bots and a Baby}}

[[Image:DeepTrouble Pirate Blades.jpg|thumb|left|300px]]
During a snowfall caused by a weather machine, Dani and Blades helped save city hall by flying upside-down and clearing the snow off the roof. Unfortunately this left Blades too frozen to fly when they later needed to rescue [[Frankie Greene|Frankie]] from a chunk of ice on the river. {{storylink|Christmas in July}} Blades and Dani rescued Mayor Luskey when his boat, the ''[[Floating Xanadu]]'' was in danger of running aground. He and the other Rescue Bots were invited on a fishing trip with Chief Burns and Cody the next day, and Blades, who had been watching too many pirate movies, began affecting pirate talk. After the Bots encountered and fought a [[shark submarine]], the sub started a self destruct sequence, and Blades had to fly it out to sea before it exploded. {{storylink|Deep Trouble}}

Blades was happy at being grounded due to fog, but had to fly anyway when the dinosaur from the museum was spotted near the lab. Though it turned out the dinosaur had been reprogrammed, a short time later the island's technology went wild, and the Rescue Bots had to deal with the out-of-control devices and a hacked [[Trex]]. After they subdued the beast, Blades had to fly Doc Greene back to his lab to remove the virus from Trex. {{storylink|Return of the Dino Bot}} When [[Thaddeus Morocco|Doctor Morocco]] turned up with his [[MorBot]] and threatened to overshadow the Rescue Bots, the team was forced to compete with the doctor's invention to prove themselves worthy. Thanks to Morocco's machinations, they failed and were stood down from service. {{storylink|The Other Doctor}} Blades turned to television. He was pressed into service by Cody, who had Dani fly him over to spy on the lab, which worked until they were spotted by the MorBot which chased them back to the fire station. After being called out to a fire at the lab, the Rescue Bots got the chance to exact some payback on the MorBot. The team was subsequently reinstated as Griffin Rock's rescue service. {{storylink|The Reign of Morocco}}

[[Image:GriffinRockTriangle Blades pulls boat.jpg|thumb|right|250px]]
Though Blades and Dani turned up to rescue [[Hayley]], Kade insisted on doing it himself so he could impress the girl. The team turned up to a break-in at the [[Hall of Inspiration]], during which Blades, Heatwave and Boulder were shrunk to the size of ants by the [[Minimizer]] and ended up in the sewer. After braving huge rats and a torrent of water, they made it to the [[Griffin Rock dam]], where they rescued Kade and alerted the rest of the team to the fact that the dam was near bursting. Cody later used the Minimizer to return them to their normal sizes. {{storylink|Small Blessings}} While trying to save [[Wild|Captain Wild]]'s boat, Blades was pulled under the sea but managed to save the boat with the help of the rest of the team. He helped Cody search the tunnels under the island to find a mooring station, leading the team to venture into the sea where they helped [[Anna Baranova|Professor Baranova]] seal the vent causing the [[Griffin Rock Triangle]]. {{storylink|The Griffin Rock Triangle}}

After the daring rescue of Huxley Prescott by the four bots, Chief left them with strict orders not to go to [[Griffin Crest]]. After receiving an apparent SOS from Cody, Blades and the others went there anyway and ended up immobilized by an [[Electromagnetic pulse|EMP]] field, leaving them in need of a rescue. {{storylink|Rules and Regulations}} Blades had a rotor bend during a rescue at the airport, so when he and the other three Bots were washed out to sea with Cody and ended up on an inhabited island, he was unable to fly back to Griffin Rock for help. The Bots' attempts to build him shelter and gather food were less than successful, but they did manage to find traces of the ''[[Oaken Crow]]'', which led to them finding the ship and getting off the island. {{storylink|The Lost Bell}}

[[Image:Bttr bumblebee blades.jpg|thumb|left|320px]]
While on a mission to [[Wayward Island]], Blades was excited to meet Bumblebee, however his attempting to show off backfired when he got stuck to a tree and Bumblebee had to rescue him. Back on Griffin Rock, the team attended another rescue, but when the other three Rescue Bots seized up, Bumblebee once again had to help Blades complete the rescue. As it turned out the others had been infected by a virus from the meteorite, Blades stayed at the fire station while the humans and Bumblebee went to deal with it, but ended up flying out himself to rescue Bumblebee from an undersea trench. Faced with an out-of-control bomb, the two Bots used it to destroy the meteorite, but were infected by the virus themselves. Luckily a sample of the meteorite they'd obtained resulted in the finding of a cure, and Blades was overjoyed to get some photos of himself with Bumblebee. {{storylink|Bumblebee to the Rescue (RB)|Bumblebee to the Rescue}}

When the Rescue Bots were called out to deal with a huge blob of space goo, Blades was horrified by it eating [[Mister Pettypaws]] and tried fruitlessly to hit it with a park sculpture. He and Dani tracked the [[Squilsh]] from the air, and later provided an air lift when the team cornered it at the [[Griffin Rock Community Pool]]. {{storylink|You've Been Squilshed}} Blades and Dani rescued Frankie from [[Tracer (RB)|tracers]] after most of the townspeople were teleported elsewhere by them, and had to fly through the wind farm to try to lose a swarm of the bugs. Back at the fire station, the Bots had their work cut out squishing bugs, though Blades managed to catch one, enabling Boulder to find a way to neutralize them. The four Bots later tracked down the cavern where the townsfolk had been teleported and rescued them all. {{storylink|Countdown (RB)|Countdown}} When Griffin Rock was hit by an infestation of what appeared to be ghosts, Blades was particularly hesitant to deal with them, having watched all fourteen ''[[Haunted Halls]]'' movies. He was especially unnerved when one manifested right inside his cockpit. {{storylink|The Haunting of Griffin Rock}}

[[Image:LittleWhiteLies Blades protects Graham.jpg|thumb|right|260px]]
Blades helped search the island for Chief Burns and Chase after the pair went missing, though when the trail led to the old lead mine, he was almost too worried about blood-sucking bats to go in. He, [[Graham Burns|Graham]] and Dani followed Boulder's sonar and managed to find Chase. {{storylink|Little White Lies}} The Rescue Bots were forced to be extra attentive to their cover as robots when Frankie started filming them for a school project. They stopped a swarm of earthquakes by tracking down the cause in the caves under Griffin Rock. {{storylink|Shake Up}} Following Blades's discovery of fireworks, Cody got a repulsor badge, granting the boy superhero-like powers. When the badge overloaded, trapping Cody in an energy bubble, Blades declared it his mortal enemy, as he and the other Bots worked to rescue Cody. {{storylink|Rescue Boy}}

Blades, the other Rescue Bots, Cody and Frankie were sent back in time to [[1939]] in a time travel accident. There they fell into the hands of a team of scientists headed by Doctor Morocco who performed experiments on them. Morocco was getting to the point of dissecting the four Bots when Optimus and Bumblebee came to their rescue. On returning to the present, they found that Morocco had taken over the town with the aid of his MorBots. {{storylink|It's a Bot Time}} The four bots managed to elude the MorBots and soon established that leaving [[Dither]] in the past had resulted in the changed. After an encounter with an alternate version of the Burns family, including a version of Dani who didn't like flying, the Rescue Bots returned to 1939 and retrieved Dither, returning the timeline to normal. {{storylink|Bot to the Future}}

Blades took to playing a dance video game with Frankie, once she and Doc Greene knew the Rescue Bots' secret. He assisted in the rescue of [[Taylor]], whom he was amused to note that Dani had taken a liking to, and had to rescue the other Bots when Doc Greene's [[Vacuum Accelerator]] warped them to the top of [[Mount Griffin]]. {{storylink|Road Trip}} The Rescue Bots helped construct Frankie Greene's [[sky forest]], only to have to rescue the town's citizens when the plant life grew out of control. {{storylink|Sky Forest}} When Chief Burns was ill, the four bots had to contend with Kade appointing himself new team leader, and Cody being aged into an adult in a lab experiment. Blades's attempt to salvage a crashed rocket from where it was tangled in power lines resulted in it exploding. {{storylink|One for the Ages}}

He and Dani tracked an iceberg, only to discover it was actually [[S.S. Isolde|a ship]] frozen by a piece of cargo it was carrying, the [[Sub-Zero Expander]]. After accidentally getting frozen by the machine, Blades returned to base, and took part in an attempt to get rid of the device by blowing it up, which was aborted when it turned out Doctor Morocco had claimed the vessel as salvage. The team had to deal with the fallout when the device exploded and froze a five-mile section of ocean. {{storylink|Tip of the Iceberg}} When the rest of the team was mesmerized by cellphones, Blades escaped by virtue of being out on patrol at the time, though it did mean he and Dani had to put out a fire without Heatwave's help. They were subsequently mind-controlled as well, and forced to excavate [[Blossom Vale]] until the cell tower was taken out. {{storylink|Spellbound}}

In keeping with the simplified transformations of the line, Blades can be transformed from helicopter to robot simply by twisting the knob on his propeller. His rotors are free-spinning in this mode, and the design of his tail / legs is such that he can be held by the bottom portion of the tail beneath the tail rotor. Care must be taken, however, as the free-spinning nature of his blades means that they can sometimes spin when the knob is twisted.

To Boulder's dismay, he had to ruin the aesthetics of the plaza outside the museum by moving planters. He was impressed by the humans' culture, admiring their paintings. That night, [[Cody Burns]] discovered the Rescue Bots' secret, and after they helped stop a rogue robot ''Tyrannosaurus rex'', Chief Burns revealed the truth to the rest of the team. {{storylink|Family of Heroes}}

Boulder and Graham had trouble working together, as Graham assumed a robot from space wouldn't need help from a primitive human. After [[Mount Magma]] started spewing lava and threatening the island, Cody managed to get the pair communicating so they could locate the artificial mountain's release control. Boulder was also able to map the underground cave system when the lava started pouring into it, threatening the bunker under the fire station. {{storylink|Under Pressure}}

[[Image:FlobstersOnParade Boulder catches Flobsters.jpg|thumb|left|250px]]
During an attempt to rescue [[Doc Greene]] from his out-of-control car, Boulder and Graham improvised a spike strip, which turned out to be ineffective. When [[Dani Burns|Dani]] and [[Blades (RB)|Blades]] later started hogging the limelight with a new scoop claw, Boulder didn't seem as put out at the other Rescue Bots and even thanked Blades. He and the others rescued Blades after the copter-bot was hit by lightning. {{storylink|Hotshots}} Boulder was happy enough to take part in the technology parade during the [[Lobster and Technology Festival]], despite his problems in maintaining the guise of an ordinary robot, and later helped stop the [[flobster]]s from destroying the town. {{storylink|Flobsters on Parade}}

[[Image:CodyOnPatrol nanite Boulder.jpg|thumb|right|200px]]
After saving a truck from falling off a cliff, Boulder and the other Rescue Bots were subjected to a movie entitled ''[[The Natives of Tatui]]'', which he didn't enjoy very much. After [[Huxley Prescott]] caused a massive panic, Boulder and Graham visited [[Perkins (RB)|Mr Perkins]]'s farm to check for aliens, only to find cows instead. The Rescue Bots had to destroy Prescott's [[SETI]] dish when it threatened to destroy the island. {{storylink|The Alien Invasion of Griffin Rock}} After a callout to rescue [[Neederlander|Mrs. Neederlander]]'s cat, Boulder was inspired to adopt his own pet. He and Blades visited the [[Griffin Rock Zoo|zoo]], where they tried to adopt the lion which Boulder dubbed [[Whiskers]]. After chasing Whiskers around the town all night, Boulder helped lure some lemurs back to the zoo. Cody gave him a potted plant as a more suitable pet. {{storylink|Walk on the Wild Side}}

Boulder tried unsuccessfully to catch [[Harrison (RB)|Mr Harrison]] in his scoop. After executing a daring plan to stop a [[nanite]]-controlled [[Scrapmaster]], Boulder himself was taken over and rampaged through the park, knocking down trees. Cody's plan to use the [[Griffin Rock power plant|power plant]] to get rid of the nanites worked, and Boulder set about replanting the trees. {{Storylink|Cody on Patrol}} Boulder was working to repair a bridge when a motorist drove off it. Cody roped the Rescue Bots into helping look after a [[Robo-Baby]]. When the baby escaped during a call-out, Cody and the bots tracked it to a wind farm, where Boulder tried to scale a windmill to save it, but missed catching it when it fell. Luckily Heatwave caught it. {{storylink|Four Bots and a Baby}}

[[Image:ChristmasInJuly Boulder raise the roof.jpg|thumb|left|240px]]
During a heatwave, Boulder read up on seasons but was confused by the concept. His questions prompted Cody to get Doc Greene to set up a weather machine, and Boulder got to experience snow, though he proved inept at aiming snowballs. When one of his snowballs sent the machine out of control, he and the other Rescue Bots swung into action. Boulder helped Doc Greene get the weather machine back to his lab and saved city hall's roof. He later used a well-aimed snowball to save [[Frankie Greene|Frankie]] from going over a waterfall. {{storylink|Christmas in July}} Boulder and the other Rescue Bots were invited on the Burns' annual fishing trip on the ''[[Darby Ava]]'', during which they encountered and fought a [[shark submarine|mechanical shark]]. {{storylink|Deep Trouble}}

The Rescue Bots had to help stop out-of-control technology one foggy day, when the Griffin Rock mainframe was hacked into. Boulder mistook a street sweeper for an [[elephant]] and trashed it. {{storylink|Return of the Dino Bot}} When [[Thaddeus Morocco|Doctor Morocco]] turned up with his [[MorBot]] and threatened to overshadow the Rescue Bots, the team was forced to compete with the doctor's invention to prove themselves worthy. Thanks to Morocco's machinations, they failed and were stood down from service. {{storylink|The Other Doctor}} Boulder maintained his optimism, and used the space time he now had to practice his painting. After being called out to a fire at the lab, the Rescue Bots got the chance to exact some payback on the MorBot. The team was subsequently reinstated as Griffin Rock's rescue service. {{storylink|The Reign of Morocco}}

Boulder joined Cody and Graham in visiting the [[Hall of Inspiration]] and watched Doc Greene demonstrate the [[Minimizer]]. When the team later turned up to a break-in at the Hall, he, Blades, and Heatwave were shrunk to the size of ants by the device and ended up in the sewer. Though Boulder was fascinated by the experience, they had to brave huge rats and a torrent of water before making it to the [[Griffin Rock dam]], where they rescued [[Kade Burns|Kade]] and alerted the rest of the team to the fact that the dam was near bursting. Cody later used the Minimizer to return them to their normal sizes. {{storylink|Small Blessings}} Boulder helped save [[Wild|Captain Wild]]'s ship and search for "tunnel 15" in the tunnels below Griffin Rock. This led the team to discover [[Anna Baranova|Professor Baranova]]'s ''[[Midgard]]'' at the bottom of an ocean trench, and they helped her seal the methane vent causing the [[Griffin Rock Triangle]]. {{storylink|The Griffin Rock Triangle}}

After the daring rescue of Huxley Prescott by the four bots, Chief left them with strict orders not to go to [[Griffin Crest]]. After receiving an apparent SOS from Cody, Boulder and the others went there anyway and ended up immobilized by an [[Electromagnetic pulse|EMP]] field, leaving them in need of a rescue. {{storylink|Rules and Regulations}} Boulder and the other three Bots were washed out to sea with Cody and ended up on an inhabited island. Their attempts to build him shelter and gather food were less than successful, but they did manage to find traces of the ''[[Oaken Crow]]'', which led to them finding the ship and getting off the island. {{storylink|The Lost Bell}} Chasing a crashed meteorite on [[Wayward Island]], the team ran into [[Bumblebee (WFC)|Bumblebee]]. Boulder, Heatwave and Chase checked out the meteorite and were unwittingly exposed to an alien virus. They slowly became to lose the ability to move or speak, and it was only through the work of Bumblebee, Blades and the humans that a cure was found. {{storylink|Bumblebee to the Rescue (RB)|Bumblebee to the Rescue}}

Boulder was concerned by the news that Graham had been accepted to the [[Gremsky Technical Institute]], but was supportive of his partner. While they pursued a giant blob of [[Squilsh]], they discussed Graham's decision. The pair cooperated in an attempt to stop the space slime and eventually worked out that they had to shock it with alternating current. After Boulder and Graham did so, saving those it had swallowed, Graham decided not to go to Gremsky Tech after all. {{storylink|You've Been Squilshed}} After [[Tracer (RB)|tracer bugs]] teleported most of the townfolk to parts unknown, Boulder discovered the bugs were sensitive to sound, and devised a way to use his sonar to disable them all. He and the other three bots then tracked down the cavern where the townspeople had been sent and mounted a rescue. {{storylink|Countdown (RB)|Countdown}}

[[Image:LittleWhiteLies Boulder sonar.jpg|thumb|left|260px|Ping!]]
When an infestation of what appeared to be ghosts hit Griffin Rock, Boulder was fascinated by this new form of life and attempted unsuccessfully to make contact. As it turned out, they were just [[hologram]]s anyway. {{storylink|The Haunting of Griffin Rock}} During a Kade-initiated race, Boulder accidentally knocked down the statue of [[Horace Burns]]. When Chase and the Chief went missing, Boulder and the rest of the team searched all night, and were eventually led to the lead mine. Boulder used his sonar to track movement in the mine, eventually finding Chase and helping him break out. {{storylink|Little White Lies}}

The Rescue Bots were forced to be extra attentive to their cover as robots when Frankie started filming them for a school project. It made Boulder's rescues during an earthquake harder. The team tracked the source of the quakes to the tunnels under the town, but while looking for Frankie and Heatwave, Boulder almost caused a huge cave-in with his sonar. {{storylink|Shake Up}} After Boulder took part in a rescue at a pyrotechnics factory, Cody got a repulsor badge that gave him superhero powers. Boulder was helping with a tire change when the truck's load came loose—he stopped two of the concrete pipes and Cody stopped the third. The Rescue Bots were relegated to cleanup until Cody's badge overloaded, trapping him in a bubble of energy until Boulder managed to extract the badge. {{storylink|Rescue Boy}}

Boulder helped Graham with his engineering homework. He, the other Rescue Bots, Cody and Frankie were sent back in time to [[1939]] in a time travel accident. There they fell into the hands of a team of scientists headed by Doctor Morocco who performed experiments on them. Morocco was getting to the point of dissecting the four Bots when Optimus and Bumblebee came to their rescue. On returning to the present, they found that Morocco had taken over the town with the aid of his MorBots. {{storylink|It's a Bot Time}} The four bots managed to elude the MorBots and soon established that leaving [[Dither]] in the past had resulted in the changed. After an encounter with an alternate version of the Burns family, the Rescue Bots returned to 1939 and retrieved Dither, returning the timeline to normal. {{storylink|Bot to the Future}}

With Doc Greene now in on the Rescue Bots' secret, Boulder teamed up with him to work on inventions using Cybertronian technology. The [[Vacuum Accelerator]] they developed proved erratic, transporting the [[Mobile Headquarters]] to the top of [[Mount Griffin]] with Cody, Heatwave, Chase and Boulder along for the ride. {{storylink|Road Trip}} The Rescue Bots helped construct Frankie Greene's [[sky forest]], only to have to rescue the town's citizens when the plant life grew out of control. {{storylink|Sky Forest}} When Chief Burns was ill, the four bots had to contend with Kade appointing himself new team leader, and Cody being aged into an adult in a lab experiment. {{storylink|One for the Ages}}

When an iceberg was discovered that was actually a frozen [[S.S. Isolde|ship]] carrying a dangerous [[Sub-Zero Expander]], Boulder took part in an attempt to get rid of the device by blowing it up, which was aborted when it turned out Doctor Morocco had claimed the vessel as salvage. The team had to deal with the fallout when the device exploded and froze a five-mile section of ocean. {{storylink|Tip of the Iceberg}} Boulder along with the rest of the team was mesmerized by a cellphone and sent to mine [[Blossom Vale]]. He snapped out of it when his cellphone was broken, and was able to help Cody evade the hypnotized townsfolk. The pair freed everyone from the influence of the cellphones by toppling the island's cell tower, and Boulder believed the vale could be restored with the aid of a painting of it he'd done earlier. {{storylink|Spellbound}}

{{spoilers|A Virtual Disaster|April 5, 2014}}
When Griffin Rock was hit by a major snow storm, Boulder took part in rescuing a trapped skier from Mount Griffin. He also assisted in helping Graham when Blades and Cody were trapped in a virtual reality game. {{storylink|A Virtual Disaster}}

Chief [[Charlie Burns]]'s partner '''Chase the Police-Bot''' is the Rescue Bot most at home and happy with their new positions learning and enforcing the laws and customs of Earth. He is brave, loyal, and very fast when he turns into a police car. As long as he gets to protect and serve, he is happy.

Chase was part of a team of Rescue Bots drifting through space when their spaceship received a transmission from [[Optimus Prime (WFC)|Optimus Prime]] and landed on [[Earth]]. After dropping the bombshell that [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] was no more, Optimus assigned the team to [[Griffin Rock]] to work with the Burns family. The four Rescue Bots were presented to the public by [[Charlie Burns|Chief Burns]] at a ceremony, after which Burns drove Chase to the [[Griffin Rock natural history museum|museum]], where a fire had broken out, and began clearing people from the area. Out of all of the Rescue Bots, Chase seemed to settle into his new role the easiest, though when [[Cody Burns]] discovered their secret, he was still reluctant to share information. He and the other Autobots helped stop a rampaging robotic ''Tyrannosaurus rex'', which seemed to be attracted to Chase's police lights. {{storylink|Family of Heroes}}

[[Image:UnderPressure Chase saves motorist.jpg|thumb|left|300px|Ma'am, I'm going to have to take you in for possessing unregistered lava.]]
Chase and Chief Burns managed to deal with an out-of-control [[robo-landscaper]] before the rest of the team, who were having trouble working together, got there. He and the other Autobots accepted Cody's help in trying to bond with the other Burns siblings. After lava began spewing from [[Mount Magma]], Chase helped Chief Burns try to keep the citizens of Griffin Rock out of harm's way and cleared some campers from near the mountain. {{storylink|Under Pressure}} Chase brought [[Doc Greene]]'s out-of-control [[solar car]] to a halt before it could plunge into a ravine, though doing so did nasty things to his feet. Chase and the other Rescue Bots were put out when [[Blades (RB)|Blades]] started hogging all the action with his new scoop claw, but they nonetheless came to his rescue when he, [[Dani Burns|Dani]] and Cody were trapped by a forest fire. {{storylink|Hotshots}}

When Doc Greene was almost swept away by a giant lobster balloon, Chase tried fruitlessly to help. He and the other Rescue Bots were subsequently given more instruction on following humans' commands, which Chase excelled at. They also took part in the technology parade at the [[Lobster and Technology Festival]] and had to help out when the parade was attacked by [[flobster]]s. {{storylink|Flobsters on Parade}} After Chase prevented a hazardous chemical spill, but almost blew his cover, he expected a reprimand and instead got praised. He and the other Rescue Bots were subjected to a screening of ''[[The Natives of Tatui]]'', which inadvertently caused a panic when [[Huxley Prescott]] mistook the movie's audio for an alien transmission, resulting in the team having to save the island from destruction. {{storylink|The Alien Invasion of Griffin Rock}}

[[Image:WalkWildSide Chase vehicle mode.jpg|thumb|right|300px|Those exhaust fumes are certified within safety standards.]]
Chase responded to two separate calls from [[Neederlander|Mrs Neederlander]] about a cat up a tree, though the second time it turned out to be [[Whiskers|a lion]]. The hunt for the lion was interrupted by lemurs attacking the [[Mayor Luskey Library]], and Chase ended up helping [[Boulder]] and [[Heatwave (RB)|Heatwave]] return the critters to the [[Griffin Rock Zoo|zoo]]. {{storylink|Walk on the Wild Side}} While trying to stop [[Harrison (RB)|Mr Harrison]]'s heli-pack ride, Chase's pursuit route was blocked by boxes. He and the other Rescue Bots went to Cody's aid when some nanites took over a [[Scrapmaster]], however the trash device failed to respect Chase's authority. He and the other bots managed to stop it anyway and eventually suppressed the nanites. {{storylink|Cody on Patrol}}

Chase was unable to stop a motorist from busting through their barricade and ending up crashing. Cody roped the Rescue Bots into helping him take care of a [[Robo-Baby]], which didn't like Chase's singing at all. This turned out to be to their advantage when they later needed to stop the Robo-Baby from falling off a platform. {{storylink|Four Bots and a Baby}} During a heatwave, Chase didn't approve of [[Frankie Greene|Frankie]] and Cody selling lemonade without a license. He didn't quite get what the fuss was about when the humans engineered a snow storm using a weather machine, and everyone seemed to be having fun, but later got into the spirit of things by making snow angels. {{storylink|Christmas in July}}

[[Image:ReignOfMorocco Chase makes soup.jpg|left|350px|thumb|]]
Chase and the other Rescue Bots were invited on the Burns' annual fishing trip on the ''[[Darby Ava]]'', during which they encountered and fought a [[shark submarine|mechanical shark]]. {{storylink|Deep Trouble}} Chase found the fog to be very unpleasant, especially when it made it hard to see the mailboxes on Willow Street. When the Griffin Rock mainframe was hacked into, the Rescue Bots had to try and stop the out-of-control technology running rampant. {{storylink|Return of the Dino Bot}} He struggled to reconcile the concept of compassionate policing. When [[Thaddeus Morocco|Doctor Morocco]] turned up with his [[MorBot]] and threatened to overshadow the Rescue Bots, the team was forced to compete with the doctor's invention to prove themselves worthy. Thanks to Morocco's machinations, they failed and were stood down from service. {{storylink|The Other Doctor}} Chase began to investigate alternate career options and tried his hand at being a gourmet chef, though he turned out to be as good at it as he was at singing. After being called out to a fire at the lab, they got the chance to exact some payback on the MorBot. The team was subsequently reinstated as Griffin Rock's rescue service. {{storylink|The Reign of Morocco}}

Chase turned down a visit to the [[Hall of Inspiration]] in favor of some speed trap detail. He later got the chance to see it when the team attended a break-in, and he apprehended the pair responsible. The disappearance of the three other Rescue Bots left him on his own, until he showed Cody a picture of the gun they'd been zapped with, and Cody recognized it. As a result, they were able to get Doc Greene to fix the [[Minimizer]] and restore Heatwave, Boulder and Blades. {{storylink|Small Blessings}} Chase helped save [[Wild|Captain Wild]]'s ship and search for "tunnel 15" in the tunnels below Griffin Rock. This led the team to discover [[Anna Baranova|Professor Baranova]]'s ''[[Midgard]]'' at the bottom of an ocean trench, and they helped her seal the methane vent causing the [[Griffin Rock Triangle]]. {{storylink|The Griffin Rock Triangle}}

[[Image:LostBell Chase grin.jpg|thumb|260px|]]
After the daring rescue of Huxley Prescott by the four bots, Chief Burns and Cody headed off to [[Griffin Crest]], leaving them with strict orders not to cross Canyon Road which Chase was determined to obey. He also found the [[Lad Pioneers Handbook]] among the camping equipment and began reading up on its contents. When an apparent distress call from Cody had the four bots head to the Crest, Chase refused to go past Canyon Road, and ended up faking a litter emergency to get the human half of the team to come help after losing contact with the other three Rescue Bots. They found that the others had fallen afoul of an [[Electromagnetic pulse|EMP]] field, and Chase ended up using a [[bubble tent]] to rescue Heatwave from the [[Old Parker]] geyser. {{storylink|Rules and Regulations}} Chase and the other three Bots were washed out to sea with Cody and ended up on an inhabited island. Their attempts to build him shelter and gather food were less than successful, but they did manage to find traces of the ''[[Oaken Crow]]'', which led to them finding the ship and getting off the island. {{storylink|The Lost Bell}}

Chasing a crashed meteorite on [[Wayward Island]], the team ran into [[Bumblebee (WFC)|Bumblebee]]. Chase, Heatwave and Boulder checked out the meteorite and were unwittingly exposed to an alien virus. They slowly became to lose the ability to move or speak, and it was only through the work of Bumblebee, Blades and the humans that a cure was found. {{storylink|Bumblebee to the Rescue (RB)|Bumblebee to the Rescue}} Chase and the team were called out to deal with a giant blob of [[Squilsh]]. Chase and the Chief tried to save some kids, and while protecting the Chief from the Squilsh, Chase was swallowed by it. He was barely able to communicate with the outside world on his comm, but the others eventually found a way to destroy the space goo, freeing him. {{storylink|You've Been Squilshed}}

When most of the town was teleported away by strange [[Tracer (RB)|bugs]], Chase caught one for [[Graham Burns|Graham]] to examine. Back at the fire station, the bots had their work cut out for them squashing bugs, but they were eventually able to track down where the townsfolk had been teleported to and rescue them. {{storylink|Countdown (RB)|Countdown}} Chase's main problem with an apparent infestation of ghosts was their complete inability to follow any laws, and the fact they floated straight through him when he tried to stop them. They later turned out to be [[hologram]]s. {{storylink|The Haunting of Griffin Rock}}

He was disturbed by Burns lying to the rest of the team about where they were going, though the Chief pointed out that Chase lied when he pretended to be a normal robot. He and the Chief ended up trapped in a lead mine and had to make their own way out, as the rest of the team didn't know they were there. Though the situation got worse when the pair were separated, Chase kept trying to reach the Chief and was eventually found by the rest of the Rescue Bots. {{storylink|Little White Lies}}

[[Image:ShakeUp have some pie.jpg|thumb|left|280px]]
After failing to understand a comedy movie, Chase began researching the genre and mostly failed with his jokes. He and the other Bots had to be extra careful to act like robots when Frankie started filming them for her school project. {{storylink|Shake Up}} The Rescue Bots found themselves relegated to cleanup when Cody got hold of a repulsor badge and became a small town superhero. {{storylink|Rescue Boy}}

Chase was too busy studying municipal codes to go see movies with Cody. He, the other Rescue Bots, Cody and Frankie were sent back in time to [[1939]] in a time travel accident. There they fell into the hands of a team of scientists headed by Doctor Morocco who performed experiments on them. Morocco was getting to the point of dissecting the four Bots when Optimus and Bumblebee came to their rescue. On returning to the present, they found that Morocco had taken over the town with the aid of his MorBots. {{storylink|It's a Bot Time}} The four bots managed to elude the MorBots and soon established that leaving [[Dither]] in the past had resulted in the changed. After an encounter with an alternate version of the Burns family, the Rescue Bots returned to 1939 and retrieved Dither, returning the timeline to normal. {{storylink|Bot to the Future}}

While the other Rescue Bots were playing with the [[Mobile Headquarters]], Chase was doing more important work chasing speeders. During a later rescue, the Mobile HQ was teleported to the top of [[Mount Griffin]] along with Chase, Heatwave and Boulder, necessitating a rescue by Blades. {{storylink|Road Trip}} The Rescue Bots helped construct Frankie Greene's [[sky forest]], only to have to rescue the town's citizens when the plant life grew out of control. {{storylink|Sky Forest}} When Chief Burns became sick, Chase collected some mucus samples. He also helped capture Evan and Myles after the pair stole a piece of Doc Greene's [[stasis machine]], inadvertently resulting in Cody being aged into an adult. {{storylink|One for the Ages}}

Following reports of a sea monster, Chase accompanied Chief Burns and Cody on the [[Griffin Rock ferry]]. Though they didn't encounter a sea monster, Chase did save the vessel after it hit an unexpected iceberg. The iceberg turned out to be the [[S.S. Isolde]], frozen by the [[Sub-Zero Expander]] it carried as cargo, and Chase took part in an attempt to get rid of the device by blowing it up, which was aborted when it turned out Doctor Morocco had claimed the vessel as salvage. The team had to deal with the fallout when the device exploded and froze a five-mile section of ocean. {{storylink|Tip of the Iceberg}} Chase and the rest of the team were hypnotized and forced to dig up [[Blossom Vale]], which had formerly been a very nice recreation area with 82% less litter than other comparable such areas. They were eventually freed when Boulder destroyed the cell tower, and set to work repairing the damage to the vale. {{storylink|Spellbound}}

{{spoilers|A Virtual Disaster|April 5, 2014}}
Chase was confused why Cody was excited by the snow day when Griffin Rock was caught in a major snow storm. He later helped Cody and Blades escape the virtual reality game after the storm prevented them from leaving. {{storylink|A Virtual Disaster}}

[[Image:HeatwaveTheFireBot poster.jpg|right|thumb|300px|Note: Toy may look nothing like TV show character.]]

The team leader of the [[Rescue Bot]]s, '''Heatwave''' was given his position because of how deeply he cares for his team and their mission. However, he is a bot of action at heart who dreams of one day joining [[Team Prime]], and sometimes has little patience for anything he sees as getting in the way of his mission, including staying in disguise as non-sentient vehicles and working with [[human]] partners.

When he goes into action, though, no blaze is too strong for his armor. With built-in water cannons, a rescue hook, and a fireman's axe, he's well prepared to take on the most stubborn fires and most intense rescue missions. He partners with the other Rescue Bots and with their newest human teammates, [[Kade Burns|Kade]] and [[Cody Burns]], though he and Kade are frequently at odds as their egos clash.

[[Image:FamilyOfHeroes Heatwave roll to the rescue.jpg|thumb|left|350px|My head looks nothing like my toy, that's how much of a rebel I am!]]
On Cybertron, Heatwave was three time [[Lobbing]] champion. {{storylink|Road Trip}}

Heatwave was part of a team of Rescue Bots drifting through space when their spaceship received a transmission from [[Optimus Prime (WFC)|Optimus Prime]] and landed on [[Earth]]. After dropping the bombshell that [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] was no more, Optimus appointed Heatwave team leader and assigned them to [[Griffin Rock]] to work with the Burns family. The four Rescue Bots were presented to the public by [[Charlie Burns|Chief Burns]] at a ceremony, following which Heatwave and his new partner, [[Kade Burns]], drove to the [[Griffin Rock natural history museum|museum]] to attend to a fire. Heatwave was disgruntled when Kade took the credit for his saving Burns and [[Graham Burns|Graham]] from a falling dinosaur statue head. That night, [[Cody Burns]] discovered the Rescue Bots' secret, and after they helped stop a rogue robot ''Tyrannosaurus rex'', Chief Burns revealed the truth to the rest of the team. {{storylink|Family of Heroes}}

Heatwave and Kade continued having trouble working together, with Kade even preferring to drive a non-transforming firetruck. After [[Mount Magma]] started spewing lava and threatening the island, the pair were forced to work together, driving through a tunnel under the island to stop the lava from reaching the bunker under the fire station. {{storylink|Under Pressure}} Following the rescue of [[Doc Greene]], Heatwave felt under-appreciated by the humans. He was amused when [[Dani Burns|Dani]] fitted a scoop claw to [[Blades (RB)|Blades]], but less so when the pair started upstaging the other Rescue Bots at rescues, and even threatened to forcibly remove the device from his comrade. Heatwave and the other Rescue Bots came to Blades's rescue when he was struck by lightning and unable to fly, after which Dani sent some appreciation their way and Blades promised not to use the claw as much. {{storylink|Hotshots}}

[[Image:FlobstersOnParade Heatwave with children.jpg|thumb|right|250px]]
After another rescue of Doc Greene, Heatwave was still disgruntled and refused to take part in the [[Lobster and Technology Festival]], instead staying back at the fire station to watch it on TV. When the town was attacked by [[flobster]]s, he ventured out to help the other Rescue Bots fight the flying critters, resulting in him later having to endure being climbed on by children. {{storylink|Flobsters on Parade}} Following the rescue of a truck of hazardous materials, Heatwave and the other Rescue Bots were subjected to a screening of ''[[The Natives of Tatui]]'', which accidentally resulted in [[Huxley Prescott]] causing a mass panic by reporting an alien invasion. The Rescue Bots had to destroy Prescott's [[SETI]] dish to save the island. {{storylink|The Alien Invasion of Griffin Rock}}

Heatwave's attempt to stop [[Harrison (RB)|Mr Harrison]]'s heli-pack ride with water only resulted in an umbrella shop being flooded. When [[Boulder]] was taken over by nanites, Heatwave threatened to physically intervene, though Blades suspected Boulder would come out on top in that match-up. {{storylink|Cody on Patrol}}

Called out about a cat in a tree, Heatwave saved [[Neederlander|Mrs Neederlander]] when she fell out of a tree, and was rewarded with a slap in the face. The next day, he helped hunt a [[Whiskers|lion]] and return a bunch of lemurs to the [[Griffin Rock Zoo|zoo]]. {{storylink|Walk on the Wild Side}} When a rescue went wrong, Heatwave managed to fish Kade and [[Don|another human]] out of a river using his fire hose. Cody roped the Rescue Bots, including "Uncle Heatwave", into helping him look after a [[Robo-Baby]]. The Robo-Baby seemed to like Heatwave best of all. After the baby went missing during a call-out, the bots had to rescue it from a wind farm. Heatwave caught it in mid-air after it fell from a windmill. {{storylink|Four Bots and a Baby}}

[[Image:DeepTrouble Heatwave jumps shark.jpg|thumb|left|290px]]
During a heatwave, Heatwave did not appreciate being used as a sprinkler. When a weather machine went out of control, he and the other Rescue Bots had to spring into action attending snow-related emergencies around town. {{storylink|Christmas in July}} Heatwave and the other Rescue Bots were invited on the Burns' annual fishing trip on the ''[[Darby Ava]]''. Heatwave didn't really get the whole fishing thing until they encountered a [[shark submarine|mechanical shark]] and he got to wrestle it. He, [[Chase (RB)|Chase]] and Boulder eventually managed to disable the sub, though it self-destructed soon after. {{storylink|Deep Trouble}}

The Rescue Bots had to help stop out-of-control technology one foggy day, when the Griffin Rock mainframe was hacked into. Heatwave had to rescue the mayor from the town hall when a garbage truck trapped him inside. {{storylink|Return of the Dino Bot}} When [[Thaddeus Morocco|Doctor Morocco]] turned up with his [[MorBot]] and threatened to overshadow the Rescue Bots, the team was forced to compete with the doctor's invention to prove themselves worthy. Thanks to Morocco's machinations, they failed and were stood down from service. Heatwave was particularly angry at the loss. {{storylink|The Other Doctor}} Accepting defeat, he attempted to make contact with Optimus Prime to get reassigned and considered getting their ship working again. After being called out to a fire at the lab, the Rescue Bots got the chance to exact some payback on the MorBot. The team was subsequently reinstated as Griffin Rock's rescue service. {{storylink|The Reign of Morocco}}

[[Image:SmallBlessings Kade rescues Hayley.jpg|thumb|right|260px|Always the bridesmaid, never the bride.]]
After helping Kade rescue [[Hayley]], a girl Kade was interested in, Heatwave was annoyed by Kade blowing him off to go on a date. When he and the rest of the team turned up to a break-in at the [[Hall of Inspiration]], Heatwave was forced to protect Kade and as a result was shrunk to the size of an ant by the [[Minimizer]]. He was joined by the similarly shrunken Boulder and Blades, and the trio ended up in the sewer. After braving huge rats and a torrent of water, they made it to the [[Griffin Rock dam]], where they rescued Kade and alerted the rest of the team to the fact that the dam was near bursting. Cody later used the Minimizer to return them to their normal sizes. {{storylink|Small Blessings}} Heatwave helped save [[Wild|Captain Wild]]'s ship and found "tunnel 15" in the tunnels below Griffin Rock. This led the team to discover [[Anna Baranova|Professor Baranova]]'s ''[[Midgard]]'' at the bottom of an ocean trench, and they helped her seal the methane vent causing the [[Griffin Rock Triangle]]. {{storylink|The Griffin Rock Triangle}}

After the daring rescue of Huxley Prescott by the four bots, Chief left them with Kade in charge, however when they got an apparent SOS from Cody and Kade was unable to be contacted, Heatwave made the decision to disobey the Chief's orders and venture into [[Griffin Crest]]. He, Blades and Boulder were subsequently caught by the [[Electromagnetic pulse|EMP]] field there and immobilized on top of [[Old Parker]], necessitating a rescue by Chase and the human half of the team. He was forced to concede that sticking to the rules sometimes worked. {{storylink|Rules and Regulations}} Heatwave and the other three Bots were washed out to sea with Cody and ended up on an inhabited island. Their attempts to build him shelter and gather food were less than successful, but they did manage to find traces of the ''[[Oaken Crow]]'', which led to them finding the ship and getting off the island. {{storylink|The Lost Bell}}

[[Image:YouveBeenSquilshed Heatwave wields telephone pole.jpg|thumb|left|300px]]
Chasing a crashed meteorite on [[Wayward Island]], the team ran into [[Bumblebee (WFC)|Bumblebee]]. Heatwave, Boulder and Chase checked out the meteorite and were unwittingly exposed to an alien virus. They slowly lost the ability to move or speak, and it was only through the work of Bumblebee, Blades and the humans that a cure was found. {{storylink|Bumblebee to the Rescue (RB)|Bumblebee to the Rescue}} Heatwave and the team were called out to deal with a giant rampaging blob of space slime. He was particularly incensed when it ate Chase, and though his water didn't help stop the blob, he found zapping it with electricity did, and the discovery ultimately led to the [[Squilsh]]'s defeat. {{storylink|You've Been Squilshed}}

After most of the town disappeared, Heatwave and the other Bots found themselves fighting small mechanical bugs. He took Cody, [[Frankie Greene|Frankie]] and Kade to the lab so they could check the information on the computer there, but after all three of them vanished as well, it was up to Heatwave and his team to work out where the humans had been teleported to. After locating the cavern in question, they were able to rescue the townsfolk. {{storylink|Countdown (RB)|Countdown}} When Griffin Rock was infested by what appeared to be ghosts, Heatwave was mostly just frustrated that he couldn't hit them. When they turned out to just be holograms, he took great delight in catching the perpetrators by hosing them down to work out which were the real humans. {{storylink|The Haunting of Griffin Rock}}

[[Image:ShakeUp Heatwave protects Frankie.jpg|thumb|right|280px]]
When Kade challenged Graham to a race, Heatwave did the driving and ended up demolishing a fire hydrant. After Chase and the Chief went missing, Heatwave and the others searched all night for them, eventually tracking them down to the lead mine where the team had to rescue them. {{storylink|Little White Lies}} Heatwave was annoyed when Kade ordered the Bots to take part in Frankie's film for school. The Bots soon had problems attending to an earthquake and acting like robots at the same time, but when Frankie followed them into the tunnels under the town, Heatwave had to come rescue her from a cave-in. In the process of doing so, he had to drop his cover, but she was passed out and didn't notice. {{storylink|Shake Up}} After Heatwave took part in a rescue at a pyrotechnics factory, Cody got a repulsor badge that gave him superhero powers. The Bots ended up being relegated to cleanup, at least until the badge overloaded and they had to rescue Cody from a bubble of energy. {{storylink|Rescue Boy}}

Heatwave was roped into taking part in a photo op with Kade. When the four bots attended the testing of a [[Temporal Station|time machine]], he sheltered Cody and Frankie, and thus when the four Bots were propelled back in time to [[1939]], so were the kids. Heatwave had the rest of his team keep up the pretense of being robots, and they were subjected to a number of tests before Morocco pinned them to a wall and prepared to dissect them. Luckily Optimus and Bumblebee came to their rescue, and the team returned to the present, only to find that Morocco was in control of Griffin Rock. {{storylink|It's a Bot Time}} They soon established that leaving [[Dither]] in the past was a mistake. After an encounter with an alternate version of the Burns family, the Rescue Bots returned to 1939 and retrieved Dither, returning the timeline to normal. {{storylink|Bot to the Future}}

Heatwave soon learned to drive the newly-acquired [[Mobile Headquarters]], using it to stop a speeding driver. An incident with Doc Greene's [[Vacuum Accelerator]] resulted in the Mobile HQ and three of the Rescue Bots being teleported around the island. After a stop atop [[Mount Griffin]], Heatwave threw the device away, only to find they needed it to rescue Kade from the forest. {{storylink|Road Trip}} The Rescue Bots helped construct Frankie Greene's [[sky forest]], only to have to rescue the town's citizens when the plant life grew out of control. {{storylink|Sky Forest}} When Chief Burns was ill, Heatwave had to contend with Kade appointing himself head honcho, and Cody being accidentally aged into an adult in a lab experiment. He helped track down Evan and Myles, and was amused when Kade was temporarily deaged into a child by the equipment they'd stolen. {{storylink|One for the Ages}}

When an iceberg was discovered that was actually a frozen [[S.S. Isolde|ship]] carrying a dangerous [[Sub-Zero Expander]], Heatwave took part in an attempt to get rid of the device by blowing it up, which was aborted when it turned out Doctor Morocco had claimed the vessel as salvage. The team had to deal with the fallout when the device exploded and froze a five-mile section of ocean. {{storylink|Tip of the Iceberg}}

Heatwave was confused and irritated by Kade ignoring emergency calls about fires, until he was hypnotized by one of the cellphones which were bringing the island's inhabitants under their control. Heatwave was forced to dig up [[Blossom Vale]] until the cell tower was destroyed. {{storylink|Spellbound}}

{{spoilers|A Virtual Disaster|April 5, 2014}}
After the Bots saved a skier when a huge snow storm hit Griffin Rock, Heatwave scolded Blades for not helping him evade an avalanche. When Blades and Cody get trapped in the ''[[Griffin Rock Element Quest 1.0]]'', a new virtual reality game in the Hall of Inspiration, Heatwave made sure the power didn't go out by holding two electrical lines together, which caused him to be temporarily dazed after being electrocuted. He later entered the game himself and was surprised to see that Blades was protecting Cody very well. He helps the two defeat the game and gets teleported out. Heatwave later commends Blades for his courage. {{storylink|A Virtual Disaster}}

:Heatwave transforms into a red and grey fire engine of likely fictitious origin. In keeping with the simple transformation scheme of the line, Heatwave transforms from vehicle mode to robot mode by simply pulling up the ladder and folding down the feet.

:Due to the placement of his ladder on his back, it is actually possible for Cody Burns (the firefighter figure) to hitch a ride on Heatwave's back in robot mode; the rungs on the ladder are just thin enough to allow for one of his hands to slip around and the thumb on that hand to fit in the hollow area on the back of said rung.

:''Heatwave the Fire-Bot is an [[Autobot]] from the ''[[Transformers: Rescue Bots (franchise)|Rescue Bots]]'' portion of the [[Aligned continuity family]].''

[[Image:HeatwaveTheFireBot poster.jpg|right|thumb|300px|Note: Toy may look nothing like TV show character.]]

The team leader of the [[Rescue Bot]]s, '''Heatwave''' was given his position because of how deeply he cares for his team and their mission. However, he is a bot of action at heart who dreams of one day joining [[Team Prime]], and sometimes has little patience for anything he sees as getting in the way of his mission, including staying in disguise as non-sentient vehicles and working with [[human]] partners.

When he goes into action, though, no blaze is too strong for his armor. With built-in water cannons, a rescue hook, and a fireman's axe, he's well prepared to take on the most stubborn fires and most intense rescue missions. He partners with the other Rescue Bots and with their newest human teammates, [[Kade Burns|Kade]] and [[Cody Burns]], though he and Kade are frequently at odds as their egos clash.

[[Image:FamilyOfHeroes Heatwave roll to the rescue.jpg|thumb|left|350px|My head looks nothing like my toy, that's how much of a rebel I am!]]
On Cybertron, Heatwave was three time [[Lobbing]] champion. {{storylink|Road Trip}}

Heatwave was part of a team of Rescue Bots drifting through space when their spaceship received a transmission from [[Optimus Prime (WFC)|Optimus Prime]] and landed on [[Earth]]. After dropping the bombshell that [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] was no more, Optimus appointed Heatwave team leader and assigned them to [[Griffin Rock]] to work with the Burns family. The four Rescue Bots were presented to the public by [[Charlie Burns|Chief Burns]] at a ceremony, following which Heatwave and his new partner, [[Kade Burns]], drove to the [[Griffin Rock natural history museum|museum]] to attend to a fire. Heatwave was disgruntled when Kade took the credit for his saving Burns and [[Graham Burns|Graham]] from a falling dinosaur statue head. That night, [[Cody Burns]] discovered the Rescue Bots' secret, and after they helped stop a rogue robot ''Tyrannosaurus rex'', Chief Burns revealed the truth to the rest of the team. {{storylink|Family of Heroes}}

Heatwave and Kade continued having trouble working together, with Kade even preferring to drive a non-transforming firetruck. After [[Mount Magma]] started spewing lava and threatening the island, the pair were forced to work together, driving through a tunnel under the island to stop the lava from reaching the bunker under the fire station. {{storylink|Under Pressure}} Following the rescue of [[Doc Greene]], Heatwave felt under-appreciated by the humans. He was amused when [[Dani Burns|Dani]] fitted a scoop claw to [[Blades (RB)|Blades]], but less so when the pair started upstaging the other Rescue Bots at rescues, and even threatened to forcibly remove the device from his comrade. Heatwave and the other Rescue Bots came to Blades's rescue when he was struck by lightning and unable to fly, after which Dani sent some appreciation their way and Blades promised not to use the claw as much. {{storylink|Hotshots}}

[[Image:FlobstersOnParade Heatwave with children.jpg|thumb|right|250px]]
After another rescue of Doc Greene, Heatwave was still disgruntled and refused to take part in the [[Lobster and Technology Festival]], instead staying back at the fire station to watch it on TV. When the town was attacked by [[flobster]]s, he ventured out to help the other Rescue Bots fight the flying critters, resulting in him later having to endure being climbed on by children. {{storylink|Flobsters on Parade}} Following the rescue of a truck of hazardous materials, Heatwave and the other Rescue Bots were subjected to a screening of ''[[The Natives of Tatui]]'', which accidentally resulted in [[Huxley Prescott]] causing a mass panic by reporting an alien invasion. The Rescue Bots had to destroy Prescott's [[SETI]] dish to save the island. {{storylink|The Alien Invasion of Griffin Rock}}

Heatwave's attempt to stop [[Harrison (RB)|Mr Harrison]]'s heli-pack ride with water only resulted in an umbrella shop being flooded. When [[Boulder]] was taken over by nanites, Heatwave threatened to physically intervene, though Blades suspected Boulder would come out on top in that match-up. {{storylink|Cody on Patrol}}

Called out about a cat in a tree, Heatwave saved [[Neederlander|Mrs Neederlander]] when she fell out of a tree, and was rewarded with a slap in the face. The next day, he helped hunt a [[Whiskers|lion]] and return a bunch of lemurs to the [[Griffin Rock Zoo|zoo]]. {{storylink|Walk on the Wild Side}} When a rescue went wrong, Heatwave managed to fish Kade and [[Don|another human]] out of a river using his fire hose. Cody roped the Rescue Bots, including "Uncle Heatwave", into helping him look after a [[Robo-Baby]]. The Robo-Baby seemed to like Heatwave best of all. After the baby went missing during a call-out, the bots had to rescue it from a wind farm. Heatwave caught it in mid-air after it fell from a windmill. {{storylink|Four Bots and a Baby}}

[[Image:DeepTrouble Heatwave jumps shark.jpg|thumb|left|290px]]
During a heatwave, Heatwave did not appreciate being used as a sprinkler. When a weather machine went out of control, he and the other Rescue Bots had to spring into action attending snow-related emergencies around town. {{storylink|Christmas in July}} Heatwave and the other Rescue Bots were invited on the Burns' annual fishing trip on the ''[[Darby Ava]]''. Heatwave didn't really get the whole fishing thing until they encountered a [[shark submarine|mechanical shark]] and he got to wrestle it. He, [[Chase (RB)|Chase]] and Boulder eventually managed to disable the sub, though it self-destructed soon after. {{storylink|Deep Trouble}}

The Rescue Bots had to help stop out-of-control technology one foggy day, when the Griffin Rock mainframe was hacked into. Heatwave had to rescue the mayor from the town hall when a garbage truck trapped him inside. {{storylink|Return of the Dino Bot}} When [[Thaddeus Morocco|Doctor Morocco]] turned up with his [[MorBot]] and threatened to overshadow the Rescue Bots, the team was forced to compete with the doctor's invention to prove themselves worthy. Thanks to Morocco's machinations, they failed and were stood down from service. Heatwave was particularly angry at the loss. {{storylink|The Other Doctor}} Accepting defeat, he attempted to make contact with Optimus Prime to get reassigned and considered getting their ship working again. After being called out to a fire at the lab, the Rescue Bots got the chance to exact some payback on the MorBot. The team was subsequently reinstated as Griffin Rock's rescue service. {{storylink|The Reign of Morocco}}

[[Image:SmallBlessings Kade rescues Hayley.jpg|thumb|right|260px|Always the bridesmaid, never the bride.]]
After helping Kade rescue [[Hayley]], a girl Kade was interested in, Heatwave was annoyed by Kade blowing him off to go on a date. When he and the rest of the team turned up to a break-in at the [[Hall of Inspiration]], Heatwave was forced to protect Kade and as a result was shrunk to the size of an ant by the [[Minimizer]]. He was joined by the similarly shrunken Boulder and Blades, and the trio ended up in the sewer. After braving huge rats and a torrent of water, they made it to the [[Griffin Rock dam]], where they rescued Kade and alerted the rest of the team to the fact that the dam was near bursting. Cody later used the Minimizer to return them to their normal sizes. {{storylink|Small Blessings}} Heatwave helped save [[Wild|Captain Wild]]'s ship and found "tunnel 15" in the tunnels below Griffin Rock. This led the team to discover [[Anna Baranova|Professor Baranova]]'s ''[[Midgard]]'' at the bottom of an ocean trench, and they helped her seal the methane vent causing the [[Griffin Rock Triangle]]. {{storylink|The Griffin Rock Triangle}}

After the daring rescue of Huxley Prescott by the four bots, Chief left them with Kade in charge, however when they got an apparent SOS from Cody and Kade was unable to be contacted, Heatwave made the decision to disobey the Chief's orders and venture into [[Griffin Crest]]. He, Blades and Boulder were subsequently caught by the [[Electromagnetic pulse|EMP]] field there and immobilized on top of [[Old Parker]], necessitating a rescue by Chase and the human half of the team. He was forced to concede that sticking to the rules sometimes worked. {{storylink|Rules and Regulations}} Heatwave and the other three Bots were washed out to sea with Cody and ended up on an inhabited island. Their attempts to build him shelter and gather food were less than successful, but they did manage to find traces of the ''[[Oaken Crow]]'', which led to them finding the ship and getting off the island. {{storylink|The Lost Bell}}

[[Image:YouveBeenSquilshed Heatwave wields telephone pole.jpg|thumb|left|300px]]
Chasing a crashed meteorite on [[Wayward Island]], the team ran into [[Bumblebee (WFC)|Bumblebee]]. Heatwave, Boulder and Chase checked out the meteorite and were unwittingly exposed to an alien virus. They slowly lost the ability to move or speak, and it was only through the work of Bumblebee, Blades and the humans that a cure was found. {{storylink|Bumblebee to the Rescue (RB)|Bumblebee to the Rescue}} Heatwave and the team were called out to deal with a giant rampaging blob of space slime. He was particularly incensed when it ate Chase, and though his water didn't help stop the blob, he found zapping it with electricity did, and the discovery ultimately led to the [[Squilsh]]'s defeat. {{storylink|You've Been Squilshed}}

After most of the town disappeared, Heatwave and the other Bots found themselves fighting small mechanical bugs. He took Cody, [[Frankie Greene|Frankie]] and Kade to the lab so they could check the information on the computer there, but after all three of them vanished as well, it was up to Heatwave and his team to work out where the humans had been teleported to.

'''The virtual becomes real; Heatwave realizes Blades' potential as a true hero.'''

==Synopsis==
With the snow thick on the ground in [[Griffin Rock]], everyone is stuck inside. [[Cody Burns|Cody]] tells the Bots that it's a snow day and it's dangerous to travel, so school is canceled. Chief Burns announces an emergency — a rocket skier is stuck on [[Mount Griffin]] and as the [[Rescue Bot]]s roll out, [[Blades (RB)|Blades]] is worried about how safe it is to travel. When they reach the skier, his skis have melted the snow, causing him to fall and lose consciousness. Blades needs help getting him onto the winch, so [[Heatwave (RB)|Heatwave]] climbs up to help, however an unexpected avalanche causes Blades to panic and Heatwave has to slide to catch the winch.

Back at base, Heatwave chews out Blades for panicking, but [[Charlie Burns|Chief Burns]] says the important part of fear is overcoming it. Once again stuck inside, Cody tries to get the Bots playing a board game, only for most of them to have other things to do. Blades is keen to try some computer games, but the only one Cody hasn't beaten is a new virtual reality game at the [[Hall of Inspiration]]. The pair head there using the tunnels and start setting up the game. Once they're in the two VR chambers, the game starts up, though Blades finds this new VR world hard to get used to — He can't transform and he's a lot shorter than in reality. The floating [[CAT]] welcomes them to ''[[Griffin Rock Element Quest 1.0]]'' and instructs them they have to find three flags.

As level 1 starts, Blades and Cody materialize on a boat surrounded by sharks, though as Cody demonstrates, getting eaten by a shark just means they have to restart. They start driving the boat and Cody uses an invincibility power-up to avoid some barrels. Blades grabs a power-up that gives him a blow-drier arm, allowing him to deflect the barrels, and they soon spot the level boss — a giant barrel-throwing squid. Once Cody spots its weak point, Blades uses a barrel to knock it out, and they grab the flag.

In the real world, the weather has added lightning to the snow storm. Chief Burns learns that Cody and Blades have gone to the Hall, but when he tunes in to the camera aimed at the building in question, the Hall of Inspiration is struck by lightning, causing electricity to arc around it. Blades and Cody find that the [[dragon]] they're facing in the game is suddenly breathing fire which actually hurts them. Cody tries to quit the game, only for CAT to announce reality mode is locked. They realize they're trapped and have to win to escape the game. The pair attempt to pull a sword from the platform in the town square and it rises to put them in a section of platforming, with disappearing platforms.

The Chief and [[Chase (RB)|Chase]] reach the Hall, but are unable to open the VR chambers, and [[Doc Greene]] is unreachable in the storm. Cody and Blades reach the last platform, but when it disappears under them, they're able to grab an invincibility power up and catch the flag. The rest of the team reaches the hall, but according to [[Graham Burns|Graham]] and [[Boulder]], they can't simply switch the game off because it might have dire consequences for Cody and Blades. Graham might be able to patch someone in to the system, but the snow threatens the Hall's power, with potentially disastrous affects for the pair in the game.

Cody and Blades start the last level — a hike up Mount Griffin. This is also fraught with danger and they have to pick up a shield to deflect the arrows being fired at them. Outside the Hall, the Bots clear snow from the power lines, however a tree branch falls, severing the power lines. The game begins to slow down as it loses power, until Heatwave holds the power lines together long enough for Chase to weld them together. Graham's work is completed, and Heatwave joins the game to find Blades and Cody fighting mobile trees. While the two bots keep the trees busy, Cody continues to the top of the mountain, only for the stone griffin at the top to come to life and menace him. With Cody pinned down, Blades goes for the flag and manages to grab it just as the griffin grabs him. Heatwave and Cody are transported to the end with Blades to be congratulated by CAT, and the game finally ends. Back in the real world, Cody and Blades are reunited with the rest of the team.

Later at the fire station, Heatwave describes Blades's bravery in the game in great detail, and the Bots realize Blades is courageous after all. Cody says he'll demonstrate why snow days are so great by taking them sledding down Breakneck Slope. The Bots decline.

'''Cody is turned into a grown-up during an experiment, which compromises his spot on the rescue team.'''

==Synopsis==
[[Chase (RB)|Chase]] and [[Charlie Burns|Chief Burns]] stand ready as a ship pulls in to the docks, as there's a shipment on it bound for [[Doc Greene]]'s lab. The Chief is suffering from the flu and is sneezing everywhere. Miscreant troublemakers [[Evan (RB)|Evan]] and [[Myles]] are ready to try and steal the new equipment, and use a sonic device to knock [[Bunty|Mr Bunty]] into the water. While Chief dives in after their victim, they swipe some equipment and speed off in their car. The Chief and Chase pursue, but the pair are sent spinning off a cliff when the two criminals drop [[oil]] on the road. Chase is able to cling to the side of the cliff and climb back up. With Chief increasingly sick, they return to the fire station so he can rest.

With Chief Burns in bed, [[Kade Burns|Kade]] announces he's the new leader. The [[Rescue Bot]]s discuss what's wrong with the Chief, and Chase tries to interest anyone in the mucus sample he's acquired. The discussion is interrupted by the news there's a ruptured gas line. [[Cody Burns|Cody]] attempts to go along, only to get told by Kade he's too small. [[Heatwave (RB)|Heatwave]] is unimpressed by Kade's insistence on beating Cody at arm wrestling before they head out. When they reach the site of the mess, Kade tries to order everyone around, though they pretty much already know what they need to do.

Cody heads up to [[Doc Greene]]'s lab, where the Doc and [[Frankie Greene|Frankie]] are assembling the parts that weren't stolen into a [[stasis machine]]. They explain that it will freeze objects in time, but there's as a part missing, it won't work. Cody plays with the remote, accidentally triggering the device, which abruptly ages him to an adult. Doc Greene realizes that it's a result of the machine being incomplete and they may need the missing part back to reverse the aging, though he might be able to improvise something. Cody's just excited that he's finally an adult.

Back at the fire station, the Rescue Bots and Cody's siblings are surprised at Cody's new state. They're soon called out to another emergency, and Cody insists he's now old enough to come along, with Kade forced to concede. They fins a rocket tangled in power lines, the result of an experiment by a [[Cullen|Mr Cullen]]. With the rocket still full of fuel, Cody switches the power off so [[Blades (RB)|Blades]] can lift it free safely. Unimpressed with Cody's feat, Kade assigns him to crowd control, though this results in [[Hayley]] becoming interested in this attractive new member of the Burns family. Unfortunately the attempt to retrieve the rocket goes wrong when it falls, and everyone takes cover from the explosion. Hayley asks "Cole", as he's calling himself, to lunch. An argument between Cody and Kade ensues, and Cody goes to hang out with Frankie.

Doc Greene is having no luck recalibrating the stasis machine, so Cody and Frankie try to play basketball, but the height disparity makes the match one-sided, so Frankie goes back inside to help her dad. Cody finally comes to the realization he needs to be a kid again. Meanwhile Myles and Evan have their eyes on the rest of the stasis machine and are aiming to break into the lab. Chase attempts to stop them, but they blast him with their sonic ray. Cody smashes the weapon out of their hands with a basketball, and when they're confronted by the Greenes and [[Trex]], they flee.

Cody and Chase are pursue the pair, but are held up by first a crosswalk and then some inconveniently placed crates. Heatwave and Kade manage to pull alongside the two thieves, only to be blasted by their piece of the stasis ray, resulting in Kade being deaged into a child. While everyone is amused at the effect, after Kade has a quick change of clothing, they chase the two criminals around the dock. Kade tries to drop a box on them, only to be too small to pull the release lever, but it provides a distraction so the Rescue Bots can surround them. Evan and Myles ditch the stasis machine piece, which [[Boulder]] saves from a watery grave, and attempt to hide in a box. Unfortunately for them, Chase simply slaps a lid on the box so Blades can lift it up and carry them to prison.

Doc Greene announces with the missing piece, he should have the machine working properly within the hour. Chief Burns walks into the station saying that he's feeling much better, only to see adult Cody and kid Kade arm wrestling, at which point he announces he's going back to bed.

===Real-world references===
*Doc Greene refers to Frankie as his "young [[Nikola Tesla|Tesla]]."
*It's a fair bet Mr Cullen's name is a reference to Optimus Prime voice actor [[Peter Cullen]].
*Chase asks Evan and Myles if they're "familiar with the human known as [[Wikipedia:Miranda warning|Miranda]]." Given Chase's voice actor [[D.C. Douglas]] has a prominent role in the ''Mass Effect'' games which also feature a human named Miranda, it's not impossible this is a double-reference.

===Trivia===
*Kade wants a two mile perimeter clear of pedestrians? How big is Griffin Rock anyway?
*Not only does the stasis machine make Cody older, it also gives him a perfectly-formed mustache but no beard.

'''The virtual becomes real; Heatwave realizes Blades' potential as a true hero.'''

==Synopsis==
With the snow thick on the ground in [[Griffin Rock]], everyone is stuck inside. [[Cody Burns|Cody]] tells the Bots that it's a snow day and it's dangerous to travel, so school is canceled. Chief Burns announces an emergency — a rocket skier is stuck on [[Mount Griffin]] and as the [[Rescue Bot]]s roll out, [[Blades (RB)|Blades]] is worried about how safe it is to travel. When they reach the skier, his skis have melted the snow, causing him to fall and lose consciousness. Blades needs help getting him onto the winch, so [[Heatwave (RB)|Heatwave]] climbs up to help, however an unexpected avalanche causes Blades to panic and Heatwave has to slide to catch the winch.

Back at base, Heatwave chews out Blades for panicking, but [[Charlie Burns|Chief Burns]] says the important part of fear is overcoming it. Once again stuck inside, Cody tries to get the Bots playing a board game, only for most of them to have other things to do. Blades is keen to try some computer games, but the only one Cody hasn't beaten is a new virtual reality game at the [[Hall of Inspiration]]. The pair head there using the tunnels and start setting up the game. Once they're in the two VR chambers, the game starts up, though Blades finds this new VR world hard to get used to — He can't transform and he's a lot shorter than in reality. The floating [[CAT]] welcomes them to ''[[Griffin Rock Element Quest 1.0]]'' and instructs them they have to find three flags.

As level 1 starts, Blades and Cody materialize on a boat surrounded by sharks, though as Cody demonstrates, getting eaten by a shark just means they have to restart. They start driving the boat and Cody uses an invincibility power-up to avoid some barrels. Blades grabs a power-up that gives him a blow-drier arm, allowing him to deflect the barrels, and they soon spot the level boss — a giant barrel-throwing squid. Once Cody spots its weak point, Blades uses a barrel to knock it out, and they grab the flag.

In the real world, the weather has added lightning to the snow storm. Chief Burns learns that Cody and Blades have gone to the Hall, but when he tunes in to the camera aimed at the building in question, the Hall of Inspiration is struck by lightning, causing electricity to arc around it. Blades and Cody find that the [[dragon]] they're facing in the game is suddenly breathing fire which actually hurts them. Cody tries to quit the game, only for CAT to announce reality mode is locked. They realize they're trapped and have to win to escape the game. The pair attempt to pull a sword from the platform in the town square and it rises to put them in a section of platforming, with disappearing platforms.

The Chief and [[Chase (RB)|Chase]] reach the Hall, but are unable to open the VR chambers, and [[Doc Greene]] is unreachable in the storm. Cody and Blades reach the last platform, but when it disappears under them, they're able to grab an invincibility power up and catch the flag. The rest of the team reaches the hall, but according to [[Graham Burns|Graham]] and [[Boulder]], they can't simply switch the game off because it might have dire consequences for Cody and Blades. Graham might be able to patch someone in to the system, but the snow threatens the Hall's power, with potentially disastrous affects for the pair in the game.

Cody and Blades start the last level — a hike up Mount Griffin. This is also fraught with danger and they have to pick up a shield to deflect the arrows being fired at them. Outside the Hall, the Bots clear snow from the power lines, however a tree branch falls, severing the power lines. The game begins to slow down as it loses power, until Heatwave holds the power lines together long enough for Chase to weld them together. Graham's work is completed, and Heatwave joins the game to find Blades and Cody fighting mobile trees. While the two bots keep the trees busy, Cody continues to the top of the mountain, only for the stone griffin at the top to come to life and menace him. With Cody pinned down, Blades goes for the flag and manages to grab it just as the griffin grabs him. Heatwave and Cody are transported to the end with Blades to be congratulated by CAT, and the game finally ends. Back in the real world, Cody and Blades are reunited with the rest of the team.

Later at the fire station, Heatwave describes Blades's bravery in the game in great detail, and the Bots realize Blades is courageous after all. Cody says he'll demonstrate why snow days are so great by taking them sledding down Breakneck Slope. The Bots decline.

'''Agent Fowler has some explaining to do under the threat of military tribunal and Team Prime's termination.'''

==Synopsis==
[[Image:Grill too close private.jpg|thumb|left|250px|Do I look crazy to ''YOU''?]]
[[William Fowler|Agent Fowler]] steps into [[Bryce|General Bryce]]'s office to provide some explanations. Bryce first asks about [[Optimus Prime (Prime)|Optimus Prime]]'s recent death, and Fowler clarifies that the body the military have is [[Nemesis Prime (Prime)|Nemesis Prime]], though Bryce has trouble swallowing it. Fowler explains a bit about [[MECH]] and wonders if some of MECH's men are special forces like [[Silas]]. Under further questioning, Fowler relates more about the [[Autobot]]s and their war, and his own involvement in helping [[Team Prime]]. Bryce asks him to run through the identities of the Autobots in Team Prime, and comes to the death of [[Cliffjumper (Prime)|Cliffjumper]]. Bryce reiterates that all they have to go on regarding Optimus Prime's recent defection to the [[Decepticon]]s is Fowler's report, and the current debriefing is a result of concerns about the potential danger the Autobots pose, with the possibility of a military tribunal later and potentially the termination of Team Prime.

[[Image:Grill Optimus through window.jpg|thumb|right|250px|Does this window make me look fat?]]
Fowler insists that the Autobots are very careful about protecting [[human]]s, but lets slip about the kids. He quickly covers the mistake by claiming they're civilians working with the Autobots and valuable team members, carefully leaving out the fact that they're minors. Bryce seems mollified, but asks why [[Megatron (Prime)|Megatron]] hasn't been terminated yet, which leads Fowler to mention [[Unicron]]. Bryce decides that Fowler needs a psychological evaluation, though after Fowler clarifies that he didn't say "[[unicorn]]", the evaluation is called off. Fowler also relays how both [[Starscream (Prime)|Starscream]] and [[Airachnid]] have gone rogue, and that the Autobots have gained valuable intel from the former. Though he says Optimus thinks [[Dreadwing (Prime)|Dreadwing]] could be converted, Fowler doesn't agree. When questioned about Optimus's recent defection, Fowler is confident that Optimus is firmly an Autobot. He mentions the current Decepticon hunt for ancient Transformer artifacts, and has Optimus himself look through the window and converse with Bryce. General Bryce is convinced and dismisses Fowler.

==Quotes==
'''Fowler''': General Bryce here just needs to confirm the state of your health and welfare. 
'''Optimus''': I am fine, General Bryce." *beat* "...How are you? 
'''Bryce''': I am well, uh, soldier.
:—'''Agent Fowler''' calls on '''Optimus Prime''', who makes awkward smalltalk with '''General Bryce'''.

==Notes==
===Continuity notes===
* Being a [[clip show]], this episode shows bits from virtually every episode of the series up to this point.
* Like Miko in "[[One Shall Rise, Part 1]]", General Bryce mistakes "Unicron" for "unicorn".
* Fowler's dialogue makes a reference to the title of "[[Loose Cannons]]".

===Trivia===
* As previously revealed on the package of the Ultimate Opponents Entertainment Pack, [[Silas]]'s real name is Leland Bishop. Newly revealed in this episode is his former military rank of Colonel.
* Aside from all the clips shown in this episode, the only Transformer appearing physically in this episode is Optimus Prime.
* A shot of Airachnid screaming Jack's name from "[[Predatory]]" is played without dialog, presumably to avoid having to pay [[Gina Torres]] an additional fee.
* We finally get an explanation for why Fowler can fly a jet without a flight suit. At some point (most likely before "[[Darkness Rising, Part 1]]"), Ratchet modified the air pressure regulators in Fowler's jet. Fowler also makes a comment about the jet being a VTOL, which explains the maneuvers it made in "[[Loose Cannons]]".
* Interestingly enough, when Bryce asks Fowler for a headcount of the Autobots, [[Wheeljack (Prime)|Wheeljack]] isn't mentioned despite Fowler's knowledge of his presence on Earth (he even had a face-to-face discussion with Jackie!). Maybe he thinks he left Earth? Or is Fowler covering up Wheeljack's presence on Earth?
* General Bryce mentions that the "five-stars" are upset. In real life, the [[Wikipedia:Five-star rank#US five-star ranks|five-star rank]] is not currently active in the United States military, being last awarded in 1950.

The [[Russia]]n icebreaker NS ''[[Yamal]]'' is on its way to [[McMurdo Station]] in [[Antarctica]] carrying passengers who are visiting their families for [[Christmas]]. While the crew bickers, the ship is suddenly attacked by [[Megatron (Prime)|Megatron]], who announces the ship is now part of the Decepticon navy.

In [[Autobot Outpost Omega One]], [[Bulkhead (Prime)|Bulkhead]] is valiantly attempting to decorate a Christmas tree while [[Arcee (Prime)|Arcee]] mocks him. [[Ratchet (Prime)|Ratchet]] announces that [[William Fowler|Agent Fowler]] is arriving, and the man himself—currently suffering from a nasty case of wind—appears through the door to report the Decepticons have captured a nuclear-powered ship. Bulkhead offers Fowler a [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]]-sized mince pie. To Arcee's dismay, [[Optimus Prime (Prime)|Optimus Prime]] takes Ratchet and [[Bumblebee (Prime)|Bumblebee]] through the [[GroundBridge]], leaving her and Bulkhead to look after the kids. Raf suggests they pass the time by playing "Knowing Me, Knowing You" and having Arcee and Bulkhead try to find something they have in common.

The other Autobots arrive on the ''Yamal'' to find the entire crew is out cold. Ratchet wonders aloud what could have done this, but his answer comes moments later when Starscream zaps him with a [[static lance]]. Optimus and Bumblebee immediately spring into action! Starscream takes a swipe at 'Bee, who responds by kicking him in the head.

Back at base, Bulkhead and Arcee are finding no common ground, and [[Miko Nakadai|Miko]] suggests they focus on what they like about Winter.

As Optimus and Megatron fight, Megatron details his plan to use the static lance to meltdown the ship's nuclear reactors and flush out the underwater [[energon]] supplies. Of course, by now Bumblebee has gotten hold of the lance, and throws it to Optimus. Megatron attempts to take the weapon back, only for Optimus to hit him with it, sending him flying.

So the NS ''Yamal'' safely reaches McMurdo, leaving the bemused crew to wonder how the ship got there while they were all unconscious. The Autobots GroundBridge back to base. Ratchet, barely recovered from his jolt, announces he'll be fine so long as he says away from ice for a while. As they step into the base, Ratchet slips over on ice—the base has been turned into an impromptu skating rink, as Arcee and Bulkhead have discovered they have a mutual love of ice skating.

===Quotes===
"Sheesh! An advanced alien species with enough fire power to level an entire state and you can't even place a fairy on a tree. Bulkhead, you are an embarrassment to our species!"
:—'''Arcee

"Do I ''look'' like a baby-sitting bot?! I'm programmed for butt-''kicking'' not butt-''wiping'', and I'm talking about Bulkhead here!"
:—'''Arcee''' is so mean.

"I am going to tear that lance from your hands, Prime!" 
"I wouldn't rush to any conclusions if I were you!"
:—'''Megatron''' and '''Optimus Prime'''

===Notes===
====Errors====

==Kre-O Transformers==
[[Megatron (Kre-O)|Megatron]] claims a distant planet, and batters [[Starscream (Kre-O)|Starscream]] when he asks if Megatron is willing to share. While Megatron is still preening, Starscream suggests they should run. Megatron scoffs at this idea, and is subsequently stomped on by the much larger [[Optimus Prime (Kre-O)|Optimus Prime]].

===Quotes===
"Starscream, bad guys don't share, they conquer and destroy!"
:—'''Megatron'''

===Notes===
* You may wonder why this strip is branded with a [[Cartoon Network]] logo. That's because it was constructed using the [[Kre-O Transformers Comic Creator]] on [http://www.cartoonnetwork.co.uk/kreo Cartoon Network's UK site]. Its grasp of punctuation is wanting.
