Synopsis
[edit]Bumblebee arrives at school with Spike and waits in the car park while Spike goes in. While the small Autobot is thinking to himself, Jack and Rick, two car thieves, approach him. Though Rick is reluctant to steal such a "girly car", Jack talks him into it, and Rick attempts to hotwire 'Bee, who humors the pair by starting up.
Once they drive out of town, Bumblebee flicks on his car stereo, and starts driving erratically, passing cars at dangerous speeds and crossing the center line. He then goes offroad, driving across a desert floor and jumping sand dunes, all the while Rick and Jack are getting greener and more scared. Once the pair have had enough, he speeds back to the high school and asks what they think of his vehicle mode now.
After the two would-be thieves flee, Spike emerges from the school. Though Bumblebee claims nothing had been happening, Spike wonders why the seat is wet and Bumblebee's interior smells like a locker room.
