Being interviewed by Barbara Walters, apparently.

Alpha Trion was present at the council meeting where Ultra Magnus announced that the likely coordinated attacks on space bridges by the Decepticons were the work of a spy in their midst. He gave Longarm Prime an odd look when the security director rather abruptly demanded that all communications from Optimus Prime's crew on Earth be filtered through him, "no exceptions". TransWarped Alpha Trion, Perceptor and Cliffjumper had a "council" talk regarding how they didn't want Sentinel Prime as commander. During Sentinel's parade through a Cybertronian city with Blitzwing and the Starscream clones, Alpha Trion and Perceptor seemed less than impressed by the temporary Magnus's attitude. Decepticon Air

Alpha Trion was given his first real assessment of Sentinel Prime's ability to lead when Omega Supreme appeared over the capital city under the control of Megatron. Sentinel advocated that they attack immediately and end the threat of Megatron at once. However, Ratchet, Omega's former mentor-bot, in the company of a small organic, said that Omega had absorbed so much transwarp energy that destroying the huge Autobot could take Cybertron with him. Alpha Trion announced that the High Council would deliberate on its options. Ratchet, however, broke out in an attempt to make contact with Omega Supreme, and Sentinel Prime diverted all essential energon to Fortress Maximus, ultimately firing on Omega Supreme, who transwarped away. After that, Alpha Trion made sure that it was known that Ratchet and the organic were the real heroes of the day, and reprimanded Sentinel for disregarding the Council's authority. Sentinel shot back that he'd repeat his actions again if it meant saving Cybetron, and Alpha Trion made his position very clear: if it were up to him, Sentinel would never get that chance.
