Indeed, the [[Vehicon (Prime)\|Vehicons]] manage to shoot down the ship, but Wheeljack emerges from the wreckage and starts smashing the tar out of them. Ratchet finally gets the GroundBridge operational, and Bulkhead, Arcee and [[Bumblebee (WFC)\|Bumblebee]] storm through to find Wheeljack finishing off the last of the 'cons. Bulkhead greets his old friend with a massive bear hug, and the four Autobots return to base. Wheeljack hits it off with Miko right away, and checks in with Optimus. Ratchet's not as enthusiastic as the others with Bulkhead's friend, as he senses impending destruction.

	Starscream discusses their success in getting a spy into the Autobot base as he and Soundwave pay a visit to their prisoner — the real Wheeljack. Now he's inside the Autobot base, Makeshift will be able to activate the GroundBridge and reveal the base's location so Starscream can send the troops in. Wheeljack mocks Starscream, who's prevented from killing the prisoner by Soundwave since Wheeljack may yet be of use.

	Bulkhead tells the kids about a battle he and Wheeljack took part in, and Makeshift barely covers for his lack of knowledge. Bulkhead observes that his old friend seems different, but Makeshift writes this off as jet lag, and asks Miko to show him around the base. However Bulkhead's suspicions have been raised, and Arcee's suggestions don't allay them.

	Starscream and Soundwave hang out on top of the Decepticon ship with a bunch of Vehicons, waiting for Makeshift to open the GroundBridge. They're confronted by Wheeljack, who fights his way through a bunch of Vehicons and pounces on Starscream. As more 'cons rush towards Wheeljack, the GroundBridge activates, courtesy of Makeshift. Makeshift's ready to enter the GroundBridge at the Autobot end, when Wheeljack comes flying through it and lands on him. Ratchet shuts down the GroundBridge before any Decepticons come through. The two Wheeljacks draw their swords and fight at length while the Autobots fail to keep track of who's who. Wheeljack, of course, triumphs.

	Starscream is pleased when the GroundBridge opens again and orders the Vehicons through, however it's only been reopened so Bulkhead can throw Makeshift through. The 'con lands on Starscream, who asks if Makeshift has obtained the location of the Autobot base. Makeshift's in the process of telling him when Starscream realizes that the grenade Makeshift is wearing has been primed and is about to explode, and he and Soundwave retreat, leaving Makeshift and a number of Vehicons to ~~get hit~~ in the ensuing explosion.

	The Autobots have another party, to Ratchet's pain. Bulkhead suggests they pick out a vehicle mode for Wheeljack, but Wheeljack says he's not staying now that his ship's fixed. The next morning, he offers to take Bulkhead with him, but Bulkhead's too attached to Earth and Miko to leave. Miko snaps a picture of the two Autobots with [[Miko's phone\|her cell phone]] before Wheeljack leaves.		The Autobots have another party, to Ratchet's pain.

	===Trivia===		===Trivia===
	* ~~None of~~ the ~~vehicons got hurt that when~~ "Wheeljack" Makeshift ~~was fighting them, he also shot the one at the end in the shoulder~~ to ~~make sure he only got wounded~~.		* ''No One Cares About Vehicons'': When the Autobots emerge from the GroundBridge, they see "Wheeljack" brutally murdering a Vehicon with his sword and shooting the last, wounded survivor. No reference is ever made to a trick sword or decoy Vehicons, so Makeshift apparently killed two or more of his own crewmates just to sell his act. But who cares? They're just Vehicons.
	* Just like with [[Skyquake (Prime)\|Skyquake]], Wheeljack's [[robot mode]] clearly has Earth vehicle kibble, even though it's stated that he doesn't yet have a local [[alternate mode]].		* Just like with [[Skyquake (Prime)\|Skyquake]], Wheeljack's [[robot mode]] clearly has Earth vehicle kibble, even though it's stated that he doesn't yet have a local [[alternate mode]].
