Landquake finds himself at the mercy of Decepticons from another timeline.

Synopsis

The Decepticons have returned to their base with Landquake, while Skyfall returned to the Ark with the Autobots. The Decepticons are less than kind to Landquake, who is bound to a chair, interrogated, and inspected. He tells them the story of how he was originally from another dimension and how he ended up in this one; Megatron is intrigued, but Starscream insists it is all lies. Soundwave and Scrapper's findings back up Landquake's claims. Starscream backtalks again, and is struck down by Megatron.

Scrapper interrupts to alert Megatron to an anomaly in South America that is giving readings identical to the radiation wavelength that Landquake emits. After suggesting that Shockwave might be of use in this situation, Scrapper is threatened by Megatron. The Decepticon leader tells Starscream to gather his Seekers, for the Decepticons are headed to South America to investigate the anomaly.

During their journey, the Decepticons are greeted by a fleet of human-piloted fighter jets. The Decepticons take action.

(Numbers indicate order of appearance.)
