This Friday, October 6th at 7:00PM EST, an episode of Transformers Prime will air called “Hard Knocks.” Transformers Prime, in case you don’t know, is the all-CGI animated series that airs on Hub (and is set in continuity with the Transformers: War for Cybertron and Transformers: Fall of Cybertron video games). Prime chronicles what happens when the Autobots and Decepticons travel through the Space Bridge to Earth, and continue their eons-long war here. The heroic Autobots of course seek to protect mankind, while the evil Decepticons do everything they can to take over the planet.

Anyone else get the feeling it may be a bromance episode with Bulkhead and Smokescreen, ever since Human Factor?

Damn, look at Bee's cracked-up chest.
KILL HIM OFF!
Not going to happen. Wishful thinking.

Such is a pipe dream. If they didn't have the guts to kill off Bulkhead, what makes you think they'd willingly kill off $$$Bumblebee$$$?SlyTF1 wrote:I hope he dies.

Now the big question: WTF did Alpha Trion do to Smokescreen? Did he jam the omega key inside him while he was a blank, or implant it through some complex medical procedure and then wipe smokescreen's memory?

Okay, am I missing a point here, or are they doing the whole 'Buffy'-season 5 thing?
yeah, great to see the Bulk back in action,
Killing off Bee, you are more likely to see Peter Cullen get a cameo in TF4 ( as a human), or them finding a reason to bring the kids back into the show.

Me too.
Yup. When I heard him say that, I said: "Translation; 'Arcee, shut the f*** up, now.'"
Really? Oh yeah, in "Hurt." That wasn't as ongoing as this, though.
I don't follow.
My theory is that Arcee is jealous that Smokescreen might be replacing Cliffjumper on Team Prime.

I keep thinking that one of these days there's gonna be an episode where Smokescreen gets so sick of Arcee's talking down to him that he just snaps back at her with "What is your problem with me?! I've done everything I can to try and fit in with you guys and you keep treating me like scrap! Why do you hate me so much?"
Also I was talking with someone about the whole deal with Arcee always being so hard on Smokescreen, and it led to us thinking something about it. Maybe this is Arcee's way of toughing him up so he doesn't get himself killed in some reckless hero act like what happened to Cliffjumper. While Arcee didn't know the specific details of Cliff's death, she does know that he got cocky and refused any back up, so maybe Arcee's just trying to avoid another Autobot making a similar mistake. She blames herself for having been unable to save her previous two comrades, and doesn't want to see another get killed. Though, if that's what she is doing, I will say that she's going about it all wrong, but then that might also be part of her own character growth in learning to not be so harsh on the new guy.
