Quotes
"You must have me confused with that mild mannered and handsome Dinobot, Grimlock. I'm Grimlock, equally good looking and handsome and heroic superhero. Hang on, the wind's picking up." [poses heroically as his cape flaps]
- —Grimlock
"Grimlock!"
"Shhh! Don't give away my secret identity! I'm supposed to be incognemo."
- —Bumblebee is annoyed Grimlock left the scrapyard.
"You are my greatest foe!"
"You mean, kinda like your arch enemy? I did become a superhero!"
- —Simacore accidentally makes Grimlock's day.
"You never know how big a Dinobot is, until you have to carry them."
- —Sideswipe
Notes
Continuity notes
- Grimlock wonders if Fixit has been taken over by "a Decepticon like Minitron", a Cyber-tick who took him over in "True Colors".
- Fixit's mad science - er, research - into controllably forming Ultra Bee has been taking place off and on since the Bee Team gained the combining ability in "King of the Hill (Part 2)"; while he managed to briefly combine Sideswipe and Grimlock in "Out of the Shadows", Bumblearm is the first (mostly) successful combination to result, and the first to actually receive an on-screen name.
- Russell tries to remind Grimlock that skill takes time to develop by recalling his field goal kicking practice, as seen in "King of the Hill (Part 1)".
- Simacore and his Mini-Cons, Axiom and Theorem, were captured in "Brainpower", and were supposed to be taken back to Cybertron by Optimus Prime when he departed with the Alchemor at the end of "Decepticon Island (Part 2)". As Simacore claims his stasis pod failed "long before" that happened, it's clear somebody forgot to take a head-count.
- Simacore's cloning facility uses Vertebreak's lab from "Some Body, Any Body".
Prisoner manifest
- In stasis: Crustacion, Ragebyte, Zorillor, Springload, Boostwing, Jacknab, Pilfer, Shadow Raker, Flamesnort, Simacore.
Transformers references
- Bumblebee's "holy hurricane mode" comment appears to be a reference to the "hurricane mode" which the 2001 Robots in Disguise Landfill takes on when that version's Grimlock forms his arms.
Real-world references
- The episode's name references the tagline of The Flash, "The Fastest Man Alive".
