Synopsis
1982- An Autobot known as B-127 runs away. He is injured from an encounter with a Decepticon and humans and left unable to speak. He then scans a Beetle and falls unconscious.
Agent Burns hates Cybertronians as he feels they pose a danger.
1987- The day before Charlie's 18th b-day, she wakes up. Her father and get had worked on a Corvette together until he passed. This makes her very unhappy and she doesn't really fit in with family.
She goes to work, where friends no longer want to be with her, as she changed. Then, she goes to Uncle Hank's shop for car parts for the Corvette. This includes the scene in the trailers where she knocks down the boats. She also finds a Beetle, which has the strange ability to start even though Uncle Hank takes the batteries out of his cars.
Her b-day, she wakes up and wants to change her life, starting with getting a ride. So, she goes to Uncle Hank's to buy the Beetle.
After driving around for a bit, the Beetle begins to break down. Charlie makes it to the garage.
The next day, the Beetle is gone, as Charlie's mother uses it to take her dog to the vet. Charlie then pursues and Bee waves at her. Bee is then driven by Charlie the rest of the way.
Realizing that Bee needs to learn to conceal his identity, they practice hiding.
The next day, Charlie take Bee to the forest so he can stretch. She notices damage on him and, after a little while hits him in a way that displays a hologram of a red and blue robot.
Bee also indicates he wants a functioning radio...
So, back in the garage, Charlie installs into Bee her Corvette's functioning radio. They bond a bit over music and Bee toggles with the radio a bit. While doing so, Memo finds out about Bee. But, he is sworn to secrecy.
The next morning, Memo comes back, think Bee is a Go-Bot from another planet. As for Bee, well, he has been toggling with the radio again for a while. He is trying to speak with it!
They take Bee out for a drive, but get held up by mean people again. You Got the Touch shows up here too. Then, after getting through that, Bee keeps driving.
Meanwhile, Shatter has convinced Dropkick to make an alliance with the human military leader- Burns- who knows about B-127. They even say they're the good guys.
Having decided to get revenge against one of the mean people, Memo, Charlie, and Bee drive to get house. (This is the scene where Bee throws the TP). From there, he completely destroy a car.
Beacuse of this, they all speed away together, earning the attention of Sheriff Lock, who chases them in the tunnel (the scene where Bee is half-transformed). Obviously, they get away okay.
The next day, Bee is left alone and in the garage as Charlie must work. He gets curious about the house, causing much havoc (many of the stills of the house destroyed). Eventually, he realizes he has a visor that helps him see better. He does an action, causing a power outage. Knocked unconscious, his energon brings many things to life.
Eventually, the dishwasher, television, etc. are disabled but the damage is there to the house.
Charlie's family sees the damage. They fight, with Bee driving her and Memo away.
Dropkick, Shatter, and S-7 track Bee based on the power outage.
