Falcia is attacked en route to her rendezvous.

Synopsis

[edit]

Stella does not respond well to Falcia's earlier insults towards the Super Stunt Team and gives the Mini-Con a piece of her mind. Falcia is unfazed, insulting Stella too before blowing the ship's escape hatch and rocketing off with the Mini-Con storage panel she's taken from Redline. Redline sighs, Stella grouses, and Servo, oblivious as ever, waves goodbye to Falcia.

Falcia contacts her teammate Combusta as she approaches Seattle, but is attacked by the Speed Chaser Mini-Cons in their Magnawing mode. Combusta takes off to intercept, while Redline and Flat-Out race along the ground to back them up. Falcia takes a powerful shock from the evil Mini-Cons and plummets just as Combusta arrives. Torqued that someone would hurt her "maquinita", Combusta converts to cannon mode and drives off the Magnawing with an impressive display of firepower.

Flat-Out contacts Combusta via radio, alerting her that they've found Falcia...but unfortunately, the panel she carried has been severely damaged.
