Didn't Grimlock just ask that?

The Earthbase began existence as the shuttle that brought the Earthforce to Earth, which served as their base of operations until Wheeljack converted it into a permanent structure. Upon completion, Wheeljack was eager to show off its new security systems to the rest of Earthforce until he realised that there was no-one left inside to turn them off. The House that Wheeljack Built! Very soon after, the Decepticons attacked, led by Soundwave, but were driven away. Divide and Conquer!

Optimus Prime then visited Earthbase to inspect the facility The 4,000,000 Year Itch! and to drop off Tracks at the body shop. Makin' Tracks! The Mayhem Attack Squad escaped from its holding cell shortly afterwards. Shut Up! The human reporter Irwin Spoon was granted a tour of the Earthbase and an interview with Grimlock in exchange for assisting the Earthforce against a cerebro-shell-controlled Superion. Front Line!
