It's kind of ridiculous how barely-noticeable it is that they actually free Dinobot. |

As a Maximal team stages a breakout, one of their number encounters someone familiar.
Synopsis
The Autobot/Decepticon war continues on, with Maximals and Predacons forced to fight in their place. Some of them have begun to fight back against the status quo. On the outskirts of the Ferromax Detention Center, a small team of Maximals prepares to break in so they can liberate their captured leader, Dynobot. Botanica shoots off a grappler so they can scale the outer wall, and once up, they activate the impercepton shield, though Geckobot isn't keen on the name and gives a list of other suggestions.
As they move unseen through the complex, Jawbreaker pastes up Dynobot posters. They rendezvous with Rattrap, whom Geckobot is surprised to see, as Rattrap was reported to have died on the road to Damaxus. Rattrap reveals he encouraged such reports himself to keep the heat off him. They move into the maximum security section of the prison, but the close quarters mean the shield won't work. Botanica unleashes a drone which flies ahead to take out the cameras as they go. As they continue on, Rattrap insists on taking command, and Botanica reluctantly agrees.
As they move past the cells, Trans-Mutate is stopped by a voice from one of them which tells she has a unique spark, and that he can feel her pain. While she has been distracted by the inmate's words, the rest of her team has freed Dynobot, and Rattrap calls for her to join them in departing.. She moves off, but in the cell she has just passed, Rampage promises they will meet again.
