Owner's Description
Synopsis:
In a South American jungle, two rebels are on night patrol. Manny grouses at his friend for lighting a cigarette and possibly giving away their position, but his friend is more interested in relieving himself. The pair are both swiftly dispatched by a metal giant.
In Cleveland, Ohio, Spike Witwicky prepares for work and is being handed his hardhat by Daniel when General Hallo from the United States Army stops by. Hallo introduces himself as the head of a department concerned with developing war technology, and informs Spike that he's been granted a leave of absence from his job so that he can help the army. When Spike inquires as to what happens if he turns down the offer, Hallo simply says that it is not an offer.
Up in the wasteland of Canada's northern territories, Lazarus and a hooded "freedom fighter" named Bishop are carried across the snow in a jeep. Lazarus has a business proposition for Bishop, but they must continue on foot. As they do so, the "jeep" transforms to stand guard behind them. The party finally reaches Lazarus's bunker, and Bishop's hood is removed, allowing him to see the "goods".
Spike waits in the Pentagon, reading a news story commemorating the Ark II disaster. As he's about to go in to the meeting, Larry the janitor cautions him that nothing is as it seems in this place. General Hallo and Spike discuss the Ark II disaster which claimed the lives of Sparkplug Witwicky and the other humans who had volunteered to travel to Cybertron. However Hallo has news for Spike—although the Transformers were all believed to have been destroyed in the ship's explosion, the military has recent footage of Megatron razing a rebel encampment in South America.
Megatron himself, at that moment, is being viewed by Lazarus and Bishop. Lazarus explains that all of the Transformers have been fitted with a control mechanism which gives him complete control over them. Megatron responds to verbal commands, until Lazarus commands the Decepticon leader to kneel before him. Lazarus dismisses this as a minor bug, but after they leave, Megatron's eyes glow ominously.
Hallo and Spike travel to Area 24, where Hallo asks if Spike will help them with their own Transformer. As Spike realizes what this means, they enter a hangar which houses Optimus Prime.
