Synopsis
Optimus Prime leads a group of Autobots against a group of Bludgeon's Decepticons on an alien world. The Decepticons want the alien super-weapons that are rumoured to be on this planet, but Bludgeon knows the Autobots, under pressure from Jhiaxus, want those weapons for themselves. Outnumbered and outgunned, the Autobots are being flattened.
Unknown to the Decepticons, Hot Rod has been sent off to create a distraction: to use the planet's old systems to create a ghostly figure that might distract or impress the occult-interested Bludgeon. Hot Rod sets to work, finding the place spooky.
A menacing figure appears at the battle, ordering the Transformers to leave or suffer the consequences. After an unnamed Decepticon attempts to fight against this figure, only to be incinerated, the Decepticons retreat. Optimus is pleased at Hot Rod's great work... which is when Hot Rod returns to announce the systems were too alien for him to figure out, the Autobots realize that this is no illusion and run away themselves.
