 Plot details for Transformers One (film) follow. |
Following a sudden cave-in during a mining operation, Darkwing reported to Elita-1 that she had been fired and demoted to waste management for the accident. Orion Pax told off the brute, pointing out that Elita shouldn't be punished for what was ultimately Orion's fault, but Darkwing was having none of it and threw a punch at Orion. D-16 caught Darkwing's punch and attempted to smooth things over, only to earn a punch of his own from the larger bot.
Darkwing later participated in the Iacon 5000 race. Seeing the same two cogless miners from before in the race as well, he blew past them in his vehicle mode, the impact damaging their jet packs. He soon made it to third place, but abruptly found himself used as a jumping pad for those very miners, which caused him to spin out and crash into the track despite his yell of rage. Though Sentinel Prime himself commended Orion and D-16 and promised them lush rewards for their efforts in the race, a furious Darkwing had other ideas. Appearing before the duo seconds after Sentinel left, he threw Orion and D-16 into sub-level 50 of waste management despite their loud protests and flew off with a snide comment.
Later, under orders from Sentinel, Darkwing attempted to force the miners to work their 23rd straight shift, ready to browbeat Ironhide when he protested against the punishing work schedule. However, he was promptly knocked out cold and thrown into a video game machine by the arriving Orion Pax. One
