'''Optimus Prime arrives on Paradron to refuel, but is confronted by a lone guard.'''

==Synopsis==
[[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]] arrives on the planet [[Paradron]] to refuel on Energon, but is denied by a [[Gyronian Sentry]] and his pet [[Guard Cats]]. Optimus explains that he and the Autobots have been on Earth for the past few years defending the human race from Megatron and the Decepticons, and that he had recently left Earth to return to Cybertron and confront his Creators.

Sentry is not impressed, demanding a passcode. The gate to the Energon has a hidden passcode written in Old Cybertronian, but when Optimus tries using a decoder, the gate does not open. Prime and Sentry's egos clash, causing a fight to break out. They chase each other around Mad-Max style for a bit until Optimus reclaims the decoder.

Optimus tries directly inserting the decoder into the door and says the passcode: "In Primus We Trust". The door opens and Optimus drinks half of the Energon, giving the other half to Sentry. Optimus tells Sentry he did a good job, relieves him of his guard duties, and flies off into space.
