Resumen:
Working with Megatron's advanced Pretender technology, Ratchet makes quick progress at repairing and re-animating Starscream's corpse. While Megatron recruits Darkwing and Dreadwind to join him, Blackjack continues to lay explosives aboard the Ark, unaware that Kup is starting to stir.
Down on Earth, Optimus Prime orders the Autobots to retreat into the shuttle. Scorponok and the Decepticons attack Optimus, and as the shuttle leaves, Hot Rod stays behind to help him. Optimus tries to convince Lord Zarak that the battle was a ruse and must end. When Optimus stops Hot Rod from attacking Lord Zarak, Zarak gives Optimus' hypothesis due consideration.
Ratchet finally finishes repairing Pretender Starscream, who is now a loyal and mindless drone. To stall megatron so he won't enter the lab yet, Ratchet causes a console malfunction that takes out the Decepticon Sports Car Patrol. He then catches up to Megatron, but it's too late -- Megatron has already sent Starscream to Earth via the trans-time portal, and he now turns on Ratchet, demanding to know what subterfuge Ratchet had planned.
On the Ark, Blackjack panics as the Autobot shuttle returns. He is then ambushed by Kup and drops the trigger, which activates the countdown...
On Earth, Lord Zarak decides to trust Optimus Prime, and orders the Decepticons to stand down. Before the leaders can exchange notes, Pretender Starscream appears, announces himself as Megatron's servant, and attacks everyone...
On Cybertron, Dreadwind summons Megatron to the lab, where three prototype Pretender shells have been activated. With a confident grin, Ratchet reveals their contents -- Jazz, Grimlock, and Bumblebee, alive and well...
En la página 8 aparece dibujado Whisper por error, ya que en el número anterior la Patrulla Aérea Micromaster se marcha de la base de las Fuerzas Aéreas.
