Optimus Prime deals with Trion's assassination attempt, while the finally reunited Nexus Prime members attempt to revive Megatron.
Synopsis
As Optimus Prime and Ricochet discuss the news of Megatron's death, they are confronted by Warpath, Kup, Camshaft, and Hound in an assassination attempt. Prime uses Ricochet as a shield to take Warpath's blast for him, then tosses his body aside and easily takes out the mutineers. Alpha Trion then shows up with Sky Lynx and Nightscream to try to take down Prime himself.
Back in the Decepticon base, Starscream laments over Megatron's body as Cyclonus is led away. After discussing options with Landquake and Topspin, and finding out that Heatwave also has his own special powers, Breakaway convinces the four living Nexus Prime members to try to resurrect Megatron.
Meanwhile, Optimus Prime introduces his three attackers to Omega Doom, who takes out Alpha Trion handily with a single shot. Prime then orders Omega to continue on to find and destroy the Decepticons, while he himself deals with Sky Lynx and Nightscream.
As the four Nexus Prime members start applying their energies to Megatron's body, they find something strange is happening... they seem to be able to see other worlds, as well as Skyfall's essence in the "afterlife". Eventually, they find themselves—including a seemingly now-alive Skyfall—in a featureless white space, where they are greeted by the voice of Primus. He gives them a choice: to die, live as they are, or be reborn as what they were meant to be. After the gestalt members make their deliberations, Primus announces that, "The choice is made. Arise, Nexus Prime."
