Would have been alot better if instead of his mom blowing him a kiss, she started crying instead. Would have made that scene register more on the emotional level. Still, I can't wait to see were this leads. I wish it were more complex than "the key will get his memory back" though...

Perhaps, but Mrs. Darby is an emergency room nurse. They are steady as trees, solid as mountains, and tougher than a battalion of battle hardened Marines. Fowler was more likely to break down than she was.

I'm inclined to agree but it's amazing how much of a game-changer it can be when it's your own child about to risk their life. That ability to become emotionally attached often flies out the window.

Anywho...I'm more than a bit disappointed in the Hub website. If CBS can post (and keep) an entire video of a show from the evening before on their website, why the hell can't the Hub do this too? The only way for me to watch new episodes is to go to my kids' house and hope that my youngest son DVR'd the episodes. I don't know why Hub network thinks anyone has any interest in watching 2 minute clips of an episode. We want to see the whole thing so post the whole @#$% thing and leave it up!! :BANG_HEAD:

I agree. I can only hope that my theory for this Orion Pax story can happen.

Nowhere in any source does it state that Optimus definitely will be getting his memories back from Vector Sigma. All we've been told is that Vector Sigma could "potentially" restore is memories, and that the Autobots were going to "try" to do just that. Not once have we been told that they will succeed. All we do know is that Orion will stop listening to Megatron in Part 3 and that he'll likely go back to the Autobots, but we cannot say for certain that he'll be rebooted back into being the same boring Stoicmus Prime that he's been throughout season 1.

i tried to give this show another chance but about 30 seconds into part one i had to stop watching, just the concept of prime losing his memories because he used the matrix is stupid. It would be one thing if the matrix causes a power surge or something & it ever so conveniently shorted out that part of his memory banks but either way its a dumb plot point. But this dumb idea does help show that tfprime isnt in the same universe as WFC/FOC, when prime gets the matrix in the game he already knows about megatron and hes been fighting him for a while plus he was called optimus not orion. The way they stated it in the show makes it seem like once he got the matrix all his memories & knowledge from that point on was stored in the matrix and not his head thus making him revert back to an early stat after using it so if this is the case, TF:Prime & the War For Cybertron series can not be in the same universe. Just another point in my argument that TF Prime is its own thing and not the continuation of the War For Cybertron series

His memories reverted to even far back before the game's events ever began. He's reverted back to the days when he and Megatronus (Megatron) were best friends, before having fallen out and took opposing sides in the war. The games take place near the end of the war. Optimus's memories reverted back to his pre-war days as Orion Pax, which were not seen in the games because the games do not cover that far back to that point in time.
