	The trio are brought to the [[Yukikaze's twin tenders\|new campsite]] and are introduced as the Maximal [[Jointron]]s. [[Apache (BW)\|Apache]] asks what brought them to Gaia and Tasmania Kid wonders if they're their reinforcements. DJ explains that they received orders from [[Maximal Army Central Headquarters\|Maximal HQ]] on their way to the planet [[Trius]], but their ship ran into trouble and was forced to land at the closest planet—Gaia. With that, they need to contact HQ, but cannot penetrate the magnetic storm around the planet. Their behavior, including their odd dialogue, enthusiastic introductory handshakes, "borrowing" the Maximals' [[oil]], and DJ's habit of flying away and expelling oil when surprised, bother the other Maximals, but Lio Convoy implores them all to get along as Maximal comrades.

	At the ''Galvaburg II'', Galvatron and [[Megastorm (BW)\|Megastorm]] are briefed on the new arrival, and the Predacons are dispatched to destroy him. Elsewhere, the Jointrons fly through Gaia's skies and agree they should take on the Predacons, boasting that the three of them can defeat them. Bighorn asks Tasmania Kid where the three have gone to, and Diver replies that he overheard that they were planning to storm the Predacon base. Bighorn drags along the other two to stop the Jointrons, not out of any concern for their safety, but because ''they'' want the credit for defeating the Predacons. Lio Convoy, on the other hand, worries for the Jointrons and asks [[Scuba]] to keep an eye on them.

	At the ''Galvaburg II'', Galvatron and [[Megastorm]] are briefed on the new arrival, and the Predacons are dispatched to destroy him. Elsewhere, the Jointrons fly through Gaia's skies and agree they should take on the Predacons, boasting that the three of them can defeat them. Bighorn asks Tasmania Kid where the three have gone to, and Diver replies that he overheard that they were planning to storm the Predacon base. Bighorn drags along the other two to stop the Jointrons, not out of any concern for their safety, but because ''they'' want the credit for defeating the Predacons. Lio Convoy, on the other hand, worries for the Jointrons and asks [[Scuba]] to keep an eye on them.

Oddly, it looks like the tenders were parked to the right of the ''Yukikaze'', even though its bow is clearly open, meaning that the tenders' hangar is too. Why weren't the tenders parked inside the hangar? Is this an animation error? "[[The Space Pirate Seacons!]]" will show the Maximals actually use the hangar.
