The Bots experience their first Halloween and Wedge goes dressed up as Bumblebee. However, his 'heroic' behavior backfires when the Recruits respond to a fire rescue.
Synopsis
A massive crack appears in Griffin Rock dam, but not to worry as the Rescue Bots Heatwave, Boulder, Chase, Blades and Wedge are on hand to save the day. Unfortunately Wedge's attempt to reach the off valve by scaling the dam ends in failure when he's hit by a jet of water and falls off. He ends the simulation in frustration. He explains to Medix that he likes to try training by taking Bumblebees role in rescue missions, but as Medix points out, he has a very different skill set from Bumblebee.
The other recruits are meanwhile alarmed by the news that Milford will be overrun by monsters and ghosts, and Cody is forced to explain Halloween. Fortunately he has a room already set up with Halloween decorations to serve as aids for his primer on the event, and Whirl even carves a Rescue Bot pumpkin. Wedge is particularly taken by the idea of dressing up in costume. Cody suggests it'll be safe for the recruits to attend in bot form, as they'll be mistaken for trick or treaters.
The recruits assemble at the GroundBridge, with Wedge arriving late having put together a Bumblebee costume. They're soon roaming suburban Milford, trick or treating and collecting candy. A small child gets Wedge to take a photo, but not a selfie, as Wedge expects, but of the kid and his friends. Cody is bemused when it turns out Hoist has thrown the candy away and is collecting the wrappers. Hot Shot attempts to stop a wolfman from attacking children, but naturally it's just another trick or treater. In the process, Hot Shot accidentally knocks over a Jack O'Lantern, the candle from which sets fire to a house and endangering the family inside. The recruits swing into action, however Wedge's attempt to storm into the house Bumblebee-style is unsuccessful, and he has to be pulled to safety by Hoist. They come up with a new plan to zip-line the family in the house to safety, and Wedge, using his own skill set, puts the fire out by using a nearby fire hydrant. The small child asks for another photo, this time with Wedge in the picture.
As a fire engine hauls up, the recruits head back to the Academy, where Heatwave is waiting to have a word with them about being themselves. Also to give them a scare from Tough Luck Chuck dressed as a ghost.
