	Elsewhere in the lab, [[Nightbird (G1)\|Nightbird]] has broken out thanks to her evil AI "brother", [[Shadow]]. The two exploit the lab's resources, upgrading the ninja robot's chassis. The two make their big entrance in front of the three finalized Trainbots and the two humans, but Mach transforms to save his creators from harm, having made his own choice to protect others. Nightbird rushes deeper into the lab, so Fujiyama commands all mobile Trainbots to take her in, unharmed.		Elsewhere in the lab, [[Nightbird (G1)\|Nightbird]] has broken out thanks to her evil AI "brother", [[Shadow]]. The two exploit the lab's resources, upgrading the ninja robot's chassis. The two make their big entrance in front of the three finalized Trainbots and the two humans, but Mach transforms to save his creators from harm, having made his own choice to protect others. Nightbird rushes deeper into the lab, so Fujiyama commands all mobile Trainbots to take her in, unharmed.

	Elsewhere, Nightbird finds the three still inactivated Trainbots that Shadow proposes converting into her "vassals". They're interrupted when [[Yamabuki\|Yellow]] and her team of prototype Trainbots confront the ninja. Nightbird attempts an escape, so Yellow has her team combine into [[G Liner]] to easily subdue their "sister". Unfortunately, as Shadow points out, the prototype combiner is a bit slow on the draw, so the swift Nightbird manages to install Shadow's [[cerebro-shell]] program into G Liner. Under the two's control, G Liner absconds with the three sleeping Trainbots, leading to the remaining three panicking on what to do. Mach takes charge and is deemed the leader; he proposes a risky idea of literally charging into the combiner in a doubleheader configuration with himself and Snow, with Night holding up the track.

	After the tactic succeeds at stopping Nightbird and G Liner, [[Autobot]] reinforcements help with the clean up while Yellow angrily chews out her younger brothers for such a dangerous maneuver. (Hitotonari, on the other hand, is happy that Mach is closer to discovering what he wants to live for.) Fujiyama is exasperated at his creations fighting, but is grateful that his precious Nightbird is back to him safe and sound... only to see that she's escaped and left Night unconscious!
