'''Andromeda and Rook report on some "dirty" happenings'''

==Synopsis==
On [[Axiom Nexus News|ANN]], [[Andromeda (TransTech)|Andromeda]] reports on the weather. The temperature is 126 degrees, with no smog, but a 12 percent increase in oxygen. In addition, she tells viewers heading into North Axiom on the 5293 to be careful, as small group of offworlder Decepticons attacking a waste fuel depot, thinking it to be an [[energon]] refinery. On the scene, [[Rook (TransTech)|Rook]] reports that the security cameras recorded the Decepticons-[[Ruckus (G1)|Ruckus]], [[Needlenose (G1)|Needlenose]], and [[Crankcase (G1)|Crankcase]]-breaking in, and causing several gigaliters of sludge to gush onto the humiliated Decepticons. Rook and Andromeda crack about the Decepticons' misfortunes. As Andromeda closes out the weather report, Rook steps in some sludge and is disgusted, his co-host oblivious to his plight.

==Notes==
===Transformers references===
*Andromeda tells viewers to remember their [[corrostop]], a rust-preventer introduced in ''Transformers'' episode "[[Cosmic Rust (episode)|Cosmic Rust]]".
*Andromeda is an all-new character, while Rook is based off his ''Universe'' [[Rook (Universe)|counterpart]]. He was originally believed to be that version, but in 2015, the Facebook page [[Rook - Axiom Nexus News: Investigative Journalist]] clarified that he is a TransTech.
*Ruckus, Needlenose, and Crankcase are all later year Decepticons from the original ''Transformers'' toyline.
