In the "high, arid wastes of Death Valley", a lonely stagecoach encounters Frenzy (or possibly Rumble), who is standing guard near the Decepticon factory. He (rather politely) tells them to turn around and leave, but the occupant of the stage, Jacob Lee Bonaventure, tells him he may have business with Frenzy's employer. (We later learn that Bonaventure is Vanflint's superior.) Meanwhile, the Autobots, Henry, and his crew, are barreling east, as Brawley adds a new verse about Bumblebee to his song.
