The Council discusses what to do about the growing combiner threat.
Synopsis
[edit]On Cybertron, the Council, composed of Starscream, Rodimus Prime, and the Mistress of Flame, meet to discuss recent events. Starscream insists that everyone must remain calm, however, Rodimus and the Mistress of Flame call for action. Rodimus suggests using the Enigma of Combination to create more combiners as a means of defense, however the idea is shot down for fear of reigniting a war long dead.
The Mistress of Flame suggests wiping out the combiners, however Starscream argues that would be genocide, as Combiners are still Autobots and Decepticons, but given Starscream's past his argument falls on deaf ears. Meanwhile, Windblade watches them through a sniper scope.
The Council moves to the Enigma of Combination, hesitant to use it. Windblade attempts to destroy the Enigma with a single shot, but someone grabs her gun as she fires, throwing off her aim and causing the stray shot to hit Starscream. The Council takes this as an attack and sounds the alarm.
As Windblade gets back on her feet, she turns to see who had stopped her from destroying the Enigma: Optimus Prime.

[edit]Continuity notes
[edit]- Starscream's design appears to be based on his Combiner Wars Leader class toy, with some slight modifications.
- Rodimus Prime's design, however, is based on his Masterpiece MP-9 Rodimus Convoy toy (as evidenced by the seams that split across his torso flames), but with his younger "Hot Rod" face instead of his wrinkled "Rodimus Prime" face.
Animation and technical errors
[edit]- The area where the Council is standing is obscured from Windblade's vantage point (as evident in the zoom out), so it shouldn't be visible through the rifle's scope either.
- Starscream pointedly mentions that the "combiners don't even know we have the Enigma. If word were ever to leak, they would stop at nothing to possess it." The animation shows that the Council have carefully hidden it away in a glass case in a giant glass spire visible from almost every sniper nest in the city.
