Starscream and Mindwipe try to steal the Autobots' Energon.
Synopsis
[edit]Mindwipe has accepted Starscream's leadership. In a remote jungle area, Mindwipe hypnotizes and interrogates Jack, who tells him that Sideswipe and Ratchet are transporting the Energon over a mountain road. Starscream wants the Energon to secure leadership of the Decepticons. Mindwipe also wants it for himself.
Optimus Prime warns Sideswipe and Ratchet that they are being tracked. Starscream and Mindwipe attack. Mindwipe attempts to hypnotize them, but Sideswipe counters with the power of rock and roll from his satellite radio. While Mindwipe writhes in pain, Sideswipe holds off Starscream while Ratchet pushes Mindwipe and the trailer of Energon over the cliff. Starscream is beating up Sideswipe when he notices the Energon falling and goes after it. Mindwipe begs for Starscream to save him, but Starscream grabs for the Energon instead. Ratchet blasts the Energon with his EMP causing it to explode. Starscream flies off, and Ratchet and Sideswipe look for a place to hide.

Notes
[edit]Continuity notes
[edit]- In The Veiled Threat, Ironhide said that refined Energon was very stable and wouldn't easily explode. He also hinted that naturally occurring Energon might exist on Earth, but the Autobots hadn't searched for it at that point.
Transformers references
[edit]- The last new character to be introduced before the end of Cyber Missions, Starscream shows up to promote his new Leader Class toy in the 2010 Transformers toyline, with his animation model being noticeably based on the toy itself rather than the character's on-screen appearance from the films.
