The two Sumdac Technicians were among those who worked on engineering some nanobots. The test went horribly awry, leading to the creation of a monstrous cockroach creature. Thankfully, the [[Autobot]]s stepped in and defeated the monster. {{storylink|Transform and Roll Out}}
Mr. Groovy invited [[Optimus Prime (Animated)|Optimus Prime]] to speak at Black River's Career Day. He, like all his students, was absolutely enthralled to watch Prime transform into a fire truck. {{storylink|Career Day}}
Eddie and Matt, as well as another technician, assisted [[Isaac Sumdac (Animated)|Professor Sumdac]] in a demonstration for his new model of police drones. They didn’t get to do much though, since the drone went up and spontaneously exploded just as the demonstration began. {{storylink|Total Meltdown}}
The pair were part of a group of technicians testing out a high-tech suit, meant to allow its wearer to move at super-speeds. The suit proved too difficult for them to handle. {{storylink|Nanosec (episode)|Nanosec}}
Later, Eddie and Matt re-engineered Isaac Sumdac's nanotechnology (the one that had previously gone monstrously awry) so as to be a convenient solution to [[Detroit]]'s current garbage problem. They then reported to the acting CEO of Sumdac Systems, [[Porter C. Powell]], telling him both of their improvements and that the nanobots would be far more cost-effective than the current waste disposal robots. Powell decided to charge the city of Detroit an arm and a leg for the use of the nanobots anyway. {{storylink|Garbage In, Garbage Out}}

* Eddie and Matt were not named in the episode, but in ''[[Transformers Animated: The AllSpark Almanac|The AllSpark Almanac]]'', which took their names from those of two human characters that were part of the ''very'' early development of the [[The Transformers (cartoon)|Generation 1 animated series]]. Eddie and Matt were part of an early [[production bible]] written by [[Jeffrey Scott]] as part of a pitch to sell the series to network television, with Eddie playing the role of stock "young human ally of the Autobots" character, and Matt playing the part of an "older brother" for him (figuratively, rather than literally). Ultimately, it was decided that the series would go directly into syndication, rather than be produced through a network, and when [[Bryce Malek]] and [[Dick Robbins]] were hired as story editors after the production of the [[More than Meets the Eye (mini-series)|pilot miniseries]], they reviewed the ideas in Scott's bible, but chose to discard Eddie and Matt in favour of more directly continuing the series on from the pilot, using [[Spike Witwicky (G1)|Spike Witwicky]] as their human character. The idea of the "elder brother" was dropped, although Matt ''did'' leave his mark on the series in a way—in the event that the "Matt" figure was used, Malek and Robbins briefly considered making the Eddie/Spike character handicapped and hence more reliant on the Autobots, ultimately inspiring [[Chip Chase]].
* Mr. Groovy was not named in any of his appearances, but later received a name in ''[[Transformers Animated: The AllSpark Almanac II|The AllSpark Almanac II]]''.
