Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2015) short

Alternate Title: The Cure for Fixit Fungus
"Fixit Jam"
Production company Hasbro Studios
Airdate April 29, 2015
Animation studio Polygon Pictures

Russell and Grimlock try to find Fixit.

Synopsis

Russell asks Grimlock if he's seen Fixit, but Grimlock turns out to be looking for the Mini-Con too. Russell suggests he retrace his step, so Grimlock thinks back to his previous encounters with Fixit throughout the day, in the morning, at the talent show, and while playing soccer. Finally a noise from Grimlock's foot leads Russell to discover that Fixit has become lodged between Grimlock's toes. Russell tries to tug Fixit free, but only succeeds in tickling Grimlock, who switches to dino mode. At first they can't work out what happened to Fixit, but then they hear him banging on the inside of Grimlock's tail.

(Numbers indicate order of appearance.)

Quotes

"Fixit is stuck to your foot!"
"Really? How'd he get there?"
"I can't imagine."
