As the Dynobots continue their robberies and Scorponok's leadership of the Decepticons is met with opposition, Megatron proves to be more tenacious than his usurper thinks...
Synopsis
[edit]
At the Rust Bucket, three of the Dynobots are discussing their next high-risk heist when Slag starts accusing Grimlock of purposefully leading them on small-time jobs because he enjoys his exciting life on the run. Before the two can come to blows they are broken up by Swoop, who reminds them what would happen if they were to lose their tempers and transform, then gives them the details about their next job: robbing the Toraxxis mega-refinery. Using Sludge as a wrecking ball, they break into the refinery and are briefly overwhelmed by sentry drones until Grimlock kills the overconfident guard controlling them. With the resistance gone, they hunker down and wait for Snarl to arrive with their tanker so they can drain the refinery of energon.
Meanwhile, Megatron brutally fights off the hostile natives of Junkion with his bare hands and comes out victorious. He then falls, having lost an arm to the fighting, but refuses to stay down. He uses junk parts littering the planet to patch himself up, leaving him with a mismatched body and a new, monstrous arm. As he rises again in this patchwork form, he prepares to show the Junkions who's in charge.
At Kolkular, Scorponok announces to the amassed Decepticon army that he is their new leader, having banished Megatron for his failure to capture Iacon. His declaration is met with mixed reactions, but the only one willing to speak up is Hun-Gar, who believes he failed to destroy Megatron out of fear, making him an unsuitable leader. He lets Scorponok know that his Terrorcons will deal with him soon enough, but first they intend to travel to Junkion and achieve what he could not: finishing off Megatron.
