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.

• Cheetor : On my way, Big Bot! Aw right!

  [He strides pridefully down the corridor, then suddenly reacts as he passes a closed metal door. He stops pensive a moment, then backs up, knocking tentatively on the door] 

  Cheetor : Uh... Silverbolt?

  Silverbolt : Yes?

  Cheetor : Uh -- I just kinda wanted t'say I'm... sorry about all this... and well I... I promise I'll bring her in with, like, minimal damage, okay?

  Silverbolt : Well, that is very considerate of you, Cheetor. And I am sorry too.

  Cheetor : Sorry? For what?

  Silverbolt : For this!

  [His fist crashes through the metal door and cracks Cheetor across the chin, spinning him against the opposite wall. The door opens, and Silverbolt steps out, grabbing Cheetor concernedly] 

  Cheetor : Owh!

  Silverbolt : Cheetor! How do you feel?

  Cheetor : Whoa! Li'l dizzy, but... I'll be okay...

  Silverbolt : Then I am again sorry.

  Cheetor : What...? Ugh.

  [Silverbolt decks him with another right cross. This time Cheetor goes down in a heap, Silverbolt considerately easing him to the floor] 

• 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.

• Silverbolt : I know how you're feeling. You don't know whether to kiss me, or kill me.

  Blackarachnia : [leaning close]  I'm a black widow spider, you idiot. I can do both...

  [fuzzy lens occurs] 

• Waspinator : Not fair! Waspinator minding own business when BANG, gets whole stasis pod right up the kazoodie!

• 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.

• Silverbolt : What is it?

  Blackarachnia : The Ark.

  Silverbolt : I've heard only legends.

  Blackarachnia : Oh, it's no legend, Bowser. This ship contained some of Cybertron's greatest heroes. When it explodes in 1984 our ancestors will awaken and start the great war.

  Silverbolt : This must have been why Optimus was so worried. This ship's power must be immense.

  Blackarachnia : It is and it's all mine.

• Blackarachnia : What are you looking at?

  Silverbolt : That star. It's a planet really. It's Venus. It reminds me of you.

  Blackarachnia : Dark, deadly, and poisonous? You're sweet.

  Silverbolt : No, wait. That's not what I meant.
