			[[File:Volcano Skybytescourge.jpg\|left\|thumb\|Tonight on Fox: When Shriners Attack!]]

	[[Megatron (RID)\|Megatron]] has discovered that a volcano at a [[Caribbean Sea\|Caribbean]] resort on [[Montrose Island]] holds vast amounts of energy that could be tapped into, and he dispatches the Predacon trio to investigate—while [[Scourge (RID)\|Scourge]] and [[Sky-Byte (RID)\|Sky-Byte]] guard the volcano (and glare at each other). While investigating, the Predacons accidentally trigger a volcanic eruption and have to flee for their lives from molten lava. ([[Kelly (RID)\|Kelly]] happens to be at this same resort and is using the hot springs—as it gets hotter under the eruption, she relaxes, thinking the hotel workers turned the heat up for her.)

	Discovering the situation and realising the resort could be wiped out, [[Optimus Prime (RID)\|Optimus Prime]] heads there with the [[Spychanger]]s. Sky-Byte is eager to take on his enemy once more—and has composed a haiku for the occasion—but Scourge wants to kill Optimus himself, and interferes with Sky-Byte's attack to launch his own. Sky-Byte is livid but can't get the Decepticon to let him in on the battle.

	Optimus is unable to convince the enemy to call off the fight until after the volcano is stopped. When [[T-AI]] reports in that only his Blizzard Storm attack can stop a lava overflow, he orders the Spychangers to take on Sky-Byte and Scourge while he stops the eruption.

	The Spychangers quickly regroup to shoot it out with the Commandos, while [[Hot Shot (RID)\|Hot Shot]] orders [[Mirage (RID)\|Mirage]] to hold off Scourge—that doesn't work very well, and Optimus Prime is blasted from behind. [[W.A.R.S.]] intervenes to hold Scourge back, allowing Optimus to use his Blizzard Storm and freeze the lava, but this will only last for eight minutes. To make matters worse, the Commandos combine into [[Ruination (RID)\|Ruination]] and unleash a rapid-fire barrage on the Spychangers. Down below, the resort is evacuated... except for Kelly, still relaxing in the spring and not noticing what's going on.

	Sky-Byte decides to get rid of both Optimus and Scourge in one swoop, destroying the ice plug and part of the volcano to speed up the lava flow. Under orders, the Spychangers quickly take down Ruination (by... pushing him over) and then erect a makeshift rock barricade to hold the lava back. (Meanwhile, Kelly finds the spring getting too hot but is too embarrassed to get out and ask for it to be turned down after she asked to have it turned up.) [[Ruination (RID)\|Ruination]] recovers and attacks the barricade, forcing Prime to take him down again-but now they're surrounded by lava and the island is doomed. Scourge confronts Sky-Byte over trying to attack him, with the shark desperately lying that he was only after Optimus.
