Notes
Continuity notes
- As the episode opens, Cheetor mourns for the cavern where he and the AllSpark lived, which made recurring appearances throughout the season starting from "Trials" until its destruction during the climax of "I Am The Allspark".
- While telling Cheetor about Cybertron, Bumblebee mentions that Windblade is not originally from Cybertron, a fact that was first mentioned back in "Cube".
- Starscream's first line, as quoted above, is a rather accurate, if succint, summary of "I Am The Allspark."
- Windblade has long since been established as a cityspeaker and stated in "Memory" that she used her abilities to communicate with "entities far greater than can be comprehended," unsurprisingly revealed to be the Titans.
Transformers references
- The idea of the Titans spearheading colonization efforts was first introduced in the 2005 IDW continuity, with five (technically four and a spaceship) such worlds being integral to the latter half of Phase Two.
- The concept was also a part of the Titans Return cartoon which, as it's presented here, featured cityspeaking as more straightforward telepathy.
- The spaceship in Croaton's flashback appears to be a Quintesson Cruiser.
Real-world references
- Croaton's name comes from the word "CROATOAN", found by English colonist John White when investigating the disappearance of the people of the Roanoke Colony, presumably either referring to Croatoan Island or the Croatan tribe of Native Americans.
