This article is about the Cyberverse episode. For the Animated character, see Crossroads.

The Autobots repair a damaged space bridge in hope of reaching Cybertron faster, only to wind up trapped in unspace.

Thanks for helping me... pull myself together.

The episode opens with a transmission from Chromia who was last seen, albeit barely, as part of the Ark's crew in "Eruption." Whether it's now being retconned that she remained on Cybertron or she returned home in the time skip between seasons is as of yet unclear.
Optimus tries to restart the alternate Ark using the override key on the right arm of the command chair that Teletraan-X used to reboot the ship in the last episode.
The Decepticons space bridged to Cybertron in "Escape From Earth."

While attempting to fix the spacebridge, Wheeljack remarks that he's "no Quintesson," possibly alluding to the fact that the Quintessons were the ones who introduced space bridges to Cybertron in the Aligned continuity family, suggesting that the same may be true in Cyberverse continuity.
When the Ark enters unspace, Wheeljack swears by Prima.

Noticeably, Wheeljack pronounces "Quintesson" with the stress on the second syllable (like how Simon Furman pronounces it), whereas previous media had placed emphasis on the first and third syllables.
