The Master Builders (episode)
Grapple and Hoist ally themselves with the Constructicons.
Detailed Synopsis
When Grapple shows his fellow Autobots a working model of a Solar Tower he asks for Optimus Prime's permission to build a life-size version. However, fearing what could happen should such a device fall into Megatron's hands, Prime denies Grapple's request. But when the Constructicons learn of Grapple's solar tower, they claim they have left Megatron and abandoned the Decepticons and they offer to help Grapple and Hoist build a full-size solar tower. When Megatron hears of the Constructicons' plans he confronts them and devises a plan to allow him to use the completeted solar tower for his own cause.

Other Notes
Animation and/or Technical Glitches
- Near the end, when they're about to dig Hoist and Grapple out of the rubble of the solar tower, Cliffjumper is given Bumblebee's colors; although he doesn't speak you can recognize it as Cliffjumper by the spoiler across his chest.
- When the Autobots are approaching the Solar Tower, Inferno is not to be seen at all, when they finally transform to robots, one of the first shots shows Inferno, but none after. Probably meant to have been Ironhide in that shot.
