- Perceptor, Brawn, and Bumblebee must shrink themselves to go inside Megatron and retrieve an artifact, the Heart of Cybertron, that is giving him enormous power.
Detailed synopsis
Several archeologists digging for Mayan artifacts in South America stumble upon an ancient spacecraft. As this is broadcasted over the news, Soundwave and Megatron recognize it as the Nemesis, the Decepticon ship they had travelled to Earth in four million years ago. Megatron states that there is something on that ship which he wants, and sets out to get it.
Meanwhile, at the Autobots' Ark, Perceptor uses a shrinking-enlarging device to repair one of Ironhide's memory chips while being insulted by Brawn for not being a soldier. Bumblebee walks in and tries to make him stop, when Optimus Prime orders Brawn and Bumblebee to follow him to South America along with Ratchet, to stop Megatron from obtaining what he wants.
As Megatron's troops are blasting their way through a rainforest in order to avoid satellite detection, Starscream manages to miss a tree and get attacked by a giant snake. The Autobots arrive and decide not to burn the forest down, because Optimus says "that's not our style".
Megatron gets through the forest first, and reaches the Nemesis. Blasting it open, he retrieves the ship's energy core, the Heart of Cybertron. Hook implements it into Megatron's torso, vastly increasing his power level. Optimus Prime arrives and orders the Autobots to attack, but they are all defeated by Megatron's new ability to continously fire energy from his fingertips. The Autobots only manage to escape by destroying a hill, burying the Decepticons under rubble.
While Optimus Primce creates a force-field to keep Megatron at bay, Perceptor creates a plan to shrink himself, Brawn and Bumblebee to microscopic sizes in order to infiltrate Megatron's body and disconnect the Heart of Cybertron.
Meanwhile, the Decepticons sit around and get intoxicated on Energon. After Megatron rambles on about the "good ol' days" and passes out, Powerglide delivers the tiny Autobots into his body. This causes him to wake up and go to destroy the Autobots himself, as the rest of his forces can't stay on their feet.
Perceptor, Brawn and Bumblebee make their way through Megatron's body, avoiding his electro-sanitizers and riding his brain impulses. They eventually reach the Heart of Cybertron, disconnect it, and get out of Megatron, who escapes. Brawn throws the Heart 2000 miles into the atmosphere, at which point Perceptor blasts it. After this, Brawn shows much more respect for Perceptor.
