Upon arrival, "O" made the mistake of staying in the back seat while Buster and Jesse claimed the front for their snuggle activities. Popcorn in hand and no little annoyed, "O" told them to quit so he could see the movie.

Both "O" and Jesse came after him, which turned out to be a smart move as the car was blown to smithereens by fighter jets a mere moment later.

Buster, knowing the Volkswagen lived, brought the car home to his dad's garage to fix it. When his dad showed up, the talking car at first made him suspect that he was the target of a prank and that "O" was hiding inside it. Nonetheless, he repaired it, which allowed Bumblebee to reveal himself as a Transformer.

Because the operation had taken several hours; hours that neither Witwicky were in their residence, "O" had been unable to contact Buster to see if he made it home alright. He and Jesse were walking around in Portland, talking about their worries over Buster, when Ravage spotted them. Recognizing them as the friends of the one that drove off in an Autobot, Ravage transformed into cassette mode and hid in "O"'s boom box. His assumption this would gain him worthwhile information proved correct when Buster and Bumblebee showed up moments later and informed his friends about the Autobots and his dad's plan to develop processable fuel for them.

"Crush him! Go, Giant Robo!"

Soon after, "O" and Jesse witnessed Buster's dad being abducted by the Decepticons. Power Play! Buster announced he would go with the Autobots to save him, and the two wished him luck. Jessie worried aloud if they'd ever see him again, but "O" didn't want to hear anything of that. Prisoner of War! "O" went back home to wait for news from Buster. Hanging around in his father's restaurant, he didn't lose sight of the TV for a moment when Ted Koppel reported on the battle at the robots' base. He was disappointed the news didn't make any mention of Buster or his dad, but was disturbed from his thoughts when a small robot suddenly showed up from behind.

"O" was disgusted by this and told his dad he wanted no part in his latest business plan, storming out of the restaurant just to see the Rolands leave town.

Much to his relief, "O" received a phone call from Greater Portland Medical Center by Buster not much later. His friend asked him to come over to support him, which "O" did. By the time he got there, Buster's dad had already recovered from the heart attack he had suffered after being freed, and "O" was glad to know everything had ended well for Buster. The Last Stand

Point at the girlfriend! The girlfriend!
