Quotes 

• Silverbolt : You wanted to see me?

  Optimus Primal : I did. I don't know how long this has been going on, but it stops right now, understand?

  Silverbolt : I am not sure to what you are referring to.

  Optimus Primal : I'm talking about you and a certain female Predacon. Or am I wrong? Tell me I'm wrong, and I'll apologize right now.

  [beat] 

  Optimus Primal : Hmm?

  [Silverbolt looks down as if he's guilty of something] 

  Optimus Primal : [sourly]  Well. That's just prime.

  Silverbolt : Sir, I believe that I can bring her around.

  Optimus Primal : [Optimus explodes, banging a fist on a table so hard it smashes]  Oh, don't be an IDIOT! She may have been made from Maximal parts, but she is Predacon to the core!

  Silverbolt : As was I once...

  Optimus Primal : YOU didn't KNOW better!

  [heavy sigh] 

  Optimus Primal : Silverbolt, you are one of the noblest individuals I have ever met. That is your strength. It is also your weakness. Blackarachnia is USING you!

  Silverbolt : I do not believe that, sir.

  Optimus Primal : Whether you believe it or not is immaterial. The fact is, your emotions have jeopardized our situation far more than you realize. If we weren't holding Megatron...

  [He breaks off, turns away] 

  Optimus Primal : You're confined to quarters. I'll send Cheetor to bring in the spider-woman.

  Silverbolt : [worried protest]  Sir!

  [Optimus looks back warningly] 

  Optimus Primal : You have something else to say, Silverbolt?

  Silverbolt : Sir -- um Optimus -- I believe that Blackarachnia will not hurt me. But she would have no such compunction about Cheetor. For his sake if no other, please. Send me instead. I will bring her in.

  [Optimus looks at him for a long beat] 

  Optimus Primal : You're confined to quarters, Silverbolt.

  [into comlink] 

  Optimus Primal : Cheetor. Report to me at once.

• Rattrap : Hey. Why you sucker-punching spaniel.

  [Silverbolt runs away] 

  Rattrap : I used to be young like that.

  Optimus Primal : What?

  Rattrap : I mean we've got trouble, all right. Trouble with a capital B.

• Optimus Primal : How's the head?

  Cheetor : More fat-headed than fractured, big bot. Man, I'm a cat. I ought to know better than to trust a dog.

  Optimus Primal : Silverbolt believed he was acting in your best interests.

  Cheetor : Yeah, well, I look forward to returning the favor. KAPOW!

  Optimus Primal : There's the cave. Let's get that Energon. The sooner we get Megatron off this planet, the better.

• Optimus Primal : Optimus to Maximal base. What is your status? Report.

  Rattrap : Well, I got good news and bad news, fearless leader.

  Optimus Primal : All right, what's the good news?

  Rattrap : Well, the good news is we don't have to count out of that stinkin' Decepticon any longer.

  Optimus Primal : And the bad news?

  Rattrap : [Ravage's ship appears behind Optimus and Cheetor]  Uh, well, the bad news is... HE SWITCHED SIDES!

• Rattrap : Man, this thing wasn't built, it was poured.

  Optimus Primal : Diecast construction... It's a lost art.
