Notes

Continuity notes

• He's back, baby! Bulkhead was last seen on-screen in Predacons Rising; he had also appeared in Robots in Disguise's tie-in comic, but the episode establishes that they are in a seperate continuity from the cartoon, as Bulkhead has to be introduced to the Bee Team.
• Nightstrike is referred to multiple times.
• Grimlock uses the fake energon cubes that were meant to trick Ped in "Can You Dig It?".

Prisoner manifest

• In stasis: Clampdown, Quillfire, Underbite, Thunderhoof.
• Held Prisoner: Wingcode
• Known at Large: Steeljaw.
  • The Autobots have run out of stasis pods at this point in the series.

Transformers references

• Bulkhead jokingly calls Grimlock "Dinobutt," which was an affectionate insult Rattrap frequently lobbed at Dinobot in the Beast Wars cartoon.

Trivia

• The episode's name comes from the common expression "sick as a dog".
