Episode 19 -
Where does Miko get all that energy of hers? I want some.
We see that this Starscream is truly afraid of Megatron in this show. He doesn't hate Megs and want to overthrow him simply because of some glorified ego trip, but because he genuinely fears Megatron and would rather have him gone than have him always looming over Starscream like some nightmarish specter.
Jack must made out of very stern stuff to come out of that cave-in without even a single injury. He literally gets up from being
buried by rocks and just starts walking around as though nothing had happened to him (aside form his being covered in dirt).
Bulkhead: "Did I do that?" - Bulky has become the next Urkel. And the next Atlas (of Greek Mythology).
Starscream's got a real inner dilemma in this episode (save his hated leader, or face his leader's certain wrath later).
This was a very Starscream-focused episode. It doesn't even end, it just sort of... stops. Leaving us all wondering what Starscream's fate will be (though, spoilers from episode 20 reveal that he survives, but now we may know why he'd wanna defect).

The Autobots won nothing in this episode. There was no victory for either side. Everyone survived.

Prime Optimus, learn from movie Optimus and stop teaching the Autobots morals! The war would have been over from the start if movie Optimus was in charge.

Movie Optimus could learn a thing or two about mercy and compassion from Prime Optimus. With those words by Jack alone, Prime Optimus is looking better and better than Movie Optimus since he's starting to fit better into the "Optimus Prime" mold than Movie Optimus ever did. Heroic, compassionate, considerate, and above all, righteous.
Movie Optimus, however, is no better than the Cons at all.

Ever seen the Nolan Batman films? Recall how Bats doesn't kill even when the enemy is down, and yet he still comes out on top. Jack could have struck Megs, but he's a better person than that. He took the better route, rather than sink down to the same level as the Cons.
