Synopsis
Before Optimus Prime's group leaves aboard Omega Supreme, Prowl asks Optimus for some words with Megatron. Prowl questions Megatron about his "damaging information". After Prime relays this to Bumblebee, Thundercracker defiantly leaves Prowl and the base, warning them against provoking him. Bumblebee tells Prowl that he reports to Magnus, who in turn reports to Bumblebee. As Prowl returns to base, Spike requests that he be kept involved, and Prowl muses over how "involved" Spike really is.
