Synopsis
Part 1: The Secret of the Unite Program
Megatron orders Bludgeon to bring him the results of N.E.S.T.'s Unite Program, promising Bludgeon the command of the Decepticon forces on Earth if he succeeds in his mission. Soundwave provides the relevant intelligence. Starscream is less than happy about Bludgeon obtaining control of Earth's forces and airs his grievances to Megatron, citing his "service" during Megatron's absence. Megatron, however, makes it very clear that he is in command, and rebukes Starscream's ambitions. Starscream's cunning isn't down for the count, though, and he makes plans to assure Bludgeon's failure.
At the Hida Mountains in Nagano Prefecture in Japan, Bludgeon leads a Decepticon force consisting of Mindwipe, Brakedown, and Dirge to infiltrate the N.E.S.T. Advanced Research Facility, the headquarters of the Unite Program. However, their stealth fails when the humans manning the facility receive a warning from an anonymous source of nearby hostiles. Ratchet and Brawn arrive on the scene, and Bludgeon realizes he's been played by the obvious suspect—Starscream.
As Bludgeon is occupied, Starscream swoops in, blowing a hole in the facility, only to reveal the weapon the Unite Program was developing... Optimus Prime, with Jetfire's parts! The Unite Program has made Jetfire's sacrifice against The Fallen a permanent power upgrade for Optimus Prime. Scared out of his wits, Starscream retreats and is noticed by Bludgeon. Infuriated at the betrayal, Bludgeon orders a retreat, only for Ratchet to blast the nearby ice, causing a collapse and avalanche that buries the Decepticons. Optimus Prime congratulates the other Autobots on winning the battle, but notes their vigilance must never be shaken.

Notes
Errors
- Brawl's remains are among those waiting to be recycled. However, in Revenge of the Fallen, his parts are seen at the bottom of the Laurentian Abyss.
- Sideways's corpse is shown to be a mostly-bisected car... but in the movie, he also exploded after being sliced through.
- Not so much an error, but... Bonecrusher was killed two years prior. They're only now getting around to getting rid of his corpse?
