	When the first [[Autobot]]s touched down on the surface of Aquatron, the Curator activated his replica Matrix and used it to knock [[Optimus Prime (WFC)\|Optimus Prime]] unconscious with an upsetting vision. When rushed to the closest medical center for diagnostic scans, the Quintesson [[Xeros]] feigned surprise on seeing Optimus's Matrix and requested a closer investigation; in reality he transmitted the data back to Inquirata's replica to enhance its functionality. For the rest of Optimus's stay on Aquatron, he was regularly tormented by visions of enslaved Cybertronians, Quintesson assembly lines, and various malevolent presences, causing him to doubt his leadership.
