Cartoon continuity
- Voice actor: Buster Jones (English), ? (Japanese)
In 2006, members of Victor Drath's criminal syndicate staged explosions across New York City in an attempt to cover their theft of some Newtronium. After Rodimus Prime and Ultra Magnus foiled their heist, Chief Turan was interviewed about the bombings, and refused to comment on the relationship of the activities because the police had only just begun their investigation. He did, however, thank the Autobots for their assistance in preventing casualties.
Some weeks later, the police received an anonymous tip regarding the case. Chief Turan was skeptical about it, but brought it up during a video conference with the Autobots, who decided to follow it up. After all, even if it was a trap - like Turan felt it was - Victor Drath was, after all, only human. What could he possibly do to Transformers?
What indeed. Only Human
Trivia
- According to the Sunbow Cast List for the episode, Chief Turan (listed as "POLICE CHIEF") is "50-ish".
- The actual Chief of Police of New York City in 2006 was Raymond W. Kelly, who continues to hold the post. His outfit isn't nearly as fancy.
References
- ↑ The city that the events of Only Human occur in is not explicitly named in the episode. However, all of the rescue vehicles in the opening sequence have NY- designations (such as NYPD and NYFD), which are NYC-specific.
