Megatron is Patient Zero!
Cosmic Rust sweeps through the Transformers and Perceptor’s anti-corrosion solution is the only thing to save them!
Also, there’s a giant bug statue super weapon. That’s a little odd.

42. Trans-Europe Express (with Darrell Taylor)
Once again the Autobots are racing for charity, but this time…in Europe!
Meanwhile, Megatron tears apart Istanbul for the Pearl of Bahoudin, which technically belongs to him so…is it theft?
I just thought of this so we don’t debate it in the episode. Whoops.

Wait! Not yet!
Not until everyone takes a trip to Cybertron to track down the life-giving supercomputer Vector Sigma.
This episode moves fast. So fast they forgot to animate several scenes. It’s still a fun ride. Get it?

38. Hoist Goes Hollywood (with Alex Robinson)
LIGHTS! CAMERA! McGUFFIN!
Hoist stumbles onto the set of an action movie, and now he’s Hollywood’s newest sensation!
Too bad he crosses paths with the Decepticons, who are doing the Indy/Ark of the Covenant thing this episode. The Autobots really don’t need to intervene for Megatron’s plans to be spoiled.
Go grab a coffee and donut and listen to this episode.
Donut?

36. Triple Takeover
Mutiny!
Starscream, Blitzwing, and Astrotrain form an alliance to usurp Megatron.
But, as they are Decepticons, the infighting begins right away!
The Autobots pretty much sit back and let everything sort out. Ironhide fixes a pipe.

35. The Girl Who Loved Powerglide
Romance is in the air…LITERALLY!
Meet Astoria Carlton-Ritz, teenage CEO of Hybrid Technologies. She doesn’t get along well with machines (especially Megatron).
Meet Powerglide, heroic but pushy Autobot jet. He doesn’t get along well with Astoria.
That is, until they need to fend off Thrust, Dirge, and Ramjet!
Can two disparate hearts take to the skies together?

23. The God Gambit
What better topic for a kids show to tackle than religion? Astrotrain seeks godhood on the Saturn moon Titan, and Jazz fights for tolerance.
Also, Cosmos is pretty much a sack of potatoes for most of the episode.
We’re sorry for the summer delay.
