Nanosec is on the loose again and leading the Autobots for a merry chase. As they pursue him, they wonder how and why he's young again. They're no closer to catching him, so Optimus Prime instructs Bumblebee to head off down a side street and come back around to cut off his escape. Bumblebee disregards this order, reasoning that he's the "star player" and is more than fast enough to get Nanosec on his own. As he speeds up, a mysterious force hits him and stops him in his tracks, which leaves the other Autobots no room to react. Nanosec escapes, and before Bumblebee can snap out of it, the Autobots crash into him. Optimus Prime expresses his disappointment in the little yellow one and orders him back to base so that Ratchet can run a diagnostic on his drivetrain.
