"Cybonic" Plague? "Saibonic" Plague? "Sibonic" Plague? "Sybonic" Plague? Can we get an official spelling on this?
Well, at least it seems to be an original name instead of a rehash of some existent disease.

Save for the fact that Optimus is in a weakened, painful state rather than turned into a berserker.Seibertron wrote:This plot sounds familiar. * cough * beast wars * cough *

I tell ya, whatever goes on in this episode, it's gonna be very tough to top last week's episode. I mean, "Predatory" was the best episode of this series yet. Quite possibly this show's first "quality episode", going above and beyond the standard episode formula that we've seen in this show until then. I want more episodes like that one. This new episode, however, will have serious difficulty in making such an impression.

Did anyone notice what appears to be Bumblebee's voice. At the tail end when it zooms to his eyes, you hear a voice that is unlike any voice we have heard in the series yet. Also, remember that Bumblebee in G1 had superior visual abilities in addition to a fuel efficient body which is why his job was a scout. I am really hoping we hear Bumblebee's real voice and none of this R2-D2 nonsense.

They previously said that they'd go into Bumblebee's voice issue during the show's second season.

I thought about that at first, but then I listened to it again and it's really Ratchet's voice being spoken in a different tone.burning_sirius wrote:Did anyone notice what appears to be Bumblebee's voice.

I'm going to guess Ratchet is going to take control of Bumblebee's body with that "psyhcic patch".

that's exactly what I said a few posts ago! Rachet has been constantly absent! I said " I Hope the events in shadowzone are followed by a good ol' fashioned "Bulkhead!!! I NEEDED THAT!!!""

I think it's more like whatever BB sees is shown on screen on the monitors at the Autobot base, so that Ratchet can guide both BB and Arcee through the Nemesis's corridors.Twitchythe3rd wrote:I'm going to guess Ratchet is going to take control of Bumblebee's body with that "psyhcic patch".

On second thought, maybe it was just Ratchet. I am just sick of voiceless Bumblebees. You cannot blame a guy for hoping right?

So, they just go to the Nemesis again? Just bridge there like goin' to a mall? Why not then just cripple their ship and then bridge it to alaska or Artic ocean. (Oh, right. I rmemeber.)
Still, they could just cripple it so it would crash and go BOOM! Presumably over an ocean so that humans would have no evidence or sighting of it. Seein' how Cybertronians don't make well in Artic temperatures so Artic ocean would be perfect: even if they'd survive the crash, they'd still freeze till offline (Just like Arcee and Prime would have and Scraplets did.)
Then again that would pretty much reduce the Decepticons Drones numbers from possible few hundred to only several or few dozen. And since the autobots can slag the drones pretty easily as seen on few episodes, that would mean that the D'Cons would pretty much be slagged.
Still, they could cripple Nemesis enough to ground it permanently. (Or at least for long enough to start a new crime-spree to steal construction supplies.)

Do you really think that just Arcee and Bumblebee alone have the means do disable the whole Nemesis by themselves?

First off, I'm guessing it is spelled Cybonic Plague. Second, you must never have heard of the Bubonic Plague. Third, it is my guess that Ratchet is going to take control of BB rather than just see what he sees. This would explain the voice at the very end. Lastly, this is not an original concept. It was done plenty of times in G1, one of which was specifically just Optimus Prime, as well as in other TF shows.
Btw, I agree with Ryan that this was seen in Beast Wars, since the fact that Optimus Primal went berserk was not the Predacon's plot. Also, even though it made him go berserk, it made him malfunction and caused the Maximals to go on the offensive to retrieve the cure.
I'm also wondering why it is you are giving the roll your eyes emoticon to the founder of this forum website.

Okay, so maybe not the two of 'em alone, but if they'd bring Bulkhead then the only real threat would be: Starscream, Soundwave, Breakdown, Knock out-
Dang, you're right.
So yeah, we saw how they scrapped the Vehicons aboard Nemesis in "The Darkness Rising Pt 4". But it does take more effort to defeat Knock Out and Breakdown. Screamer and Wavevy are unknown since they've never really been on close-combats (Except for SS, who got kicked by Wheeljack.)
Still, you would think that getting into Decepticons flagship should be harder than that: Bulkhead simply drove up the hill and jumped aboard it, Jackie and Arcee Bumblebee got bridged there (Technically Jackie did get bridged back and RC & BB have yet to warp).
