Russell and Grimlock try to find Fixit.

Synopsis

Russell asks Grimlock if he's seen Fixit, but Grimlock turns out to be looking for the Mini-Con too. Russell suggests he retrace his step, so Grimlock thinks back to his previous encounters with Fixit throughout the day, in the morning, at the talent show, and while playing soccer. Finally a noise from Grimlock's foot leads Russell to discover that Fixit has become lodged between Grimlock's toes. Russell tries to tug Fixit free, but only succeeds in tickling Grimlock, who switches to dino mode. At first they can't work out what happened to Fixit, but then they hear him banging on the inside of Grimlock's tail.

"I can't imagine."

—Russell and Grimlock

Notes

Continuity notes

• The Autobots have a GroundBridge, placing this after "Hunting Season". Drift also appears to be hanging out with the Autobots.

Transformers references

• It can be inferred in this short that Grimlock's foot forms (part of) his tail in dino mode, just like numerous other Grimlock toys including this one's Warrior class version.

Real-world references

• Fixit's drawn-out, high-pitched "Help me!" is probably a reference to The Fly.

Trivia

• Grimlock is seen stepping on Fixit, and running into an outhouse. Since when do they need outhouses?
• This short was originally released on the official Transformers Facebook page.
• Drift was added as part of the main cast in "One of Our Mini-Cons Is Missing." The timeline for this short clearly takes place after that episode.
