truth, Professor Malto?

Which means
Say it with me
It's Bumblebee in disguise.
It's Bumblebee in disguise.
Neither of you did it.

There's a race today,
and you're gonna help
me catch Bumblebee.

You found out, huh?
[clank]

being so reckless?
You're supposed to be in hiding.
Instead, you're joyriding
around the world.

I had this friend, a
brother, more like

He can't help himself. He
keeps entering these races,
and they're the only way
I know how to find him.
And they're the only way
I know how to find him.
- Well, Agent Schloder
is on your trail,
and he set up a trap to
catch you at the race today.
And he set up a trap to
catch you at the race today.
- Don't worry. I installed
Energon suppressors
when I went into hiding.
Nobody can scan me.
- Unless you're Energon
boosting in front of GHOST.
- Unless you're Energon
boosting in front of GHOST.
If you're discovered,
they'll arrest you.
Then what happens, hmm?
Then what happens, hmm?
To you, the kids, our family?
- I didn't think
about it that way.
- I didn't think
about it that way.
But if I'm a no-show,
Schloder will know
somebody tipped me off,
and he'll come back
for you and Alex.
And he'll come back
for you and Alex.
I have to race even
if it is a trap.

Well, lucky for you, rangers
know all about tracks

this afternoon, Breakdown.
- [chuckles]
I was hoping you'd show up.
- Just like old times.

Before you let Optimus
get between us.
- Hey, you could've joined us.
- Nah, brother, I'm
a Stunticon at heart.

a Stunticon at heart.
It wasn't meant to be.
- No, you made a choice.
- Choice?

We both made a lot of
choices in the war.

we can do about the past.

- Since you're so concerned,
I got a wager for you

Beat me, and I'll
retire for good.
But if I beat you, you give me
that Energon suppressor that's
kept you hidden for so long.
That Energon suppressor that's
kept you hidden for so long.
- Deal.
[clock beeps]
- Have we tried
cutting backup
power? Both: Yes.
- What about
short-circuiting the motors?
Both: Yes.
- Well, what about
circumventing the hydraulics?
- Twitch, will you
give it a rest already?

give it a rest already?

listen to me, Thrash?
I've been sitting here,
thinking of a million ways
we could get out.
We could get out.

the only problem here?

when my family is in danger.

know what I would do
if I lost any of
you on my watch.
- Twitch

I'm sorry.
I guess I rely on
you and Bee so often,
that it feels like
it's all on you.

let anything happen to him.

You Maltos are

But you'll be in a GHOST cell
for the rest of your life
But you'll be in a GHOST cell
for the rest of your life
