[surging music]

- 1, 2, 3.

Hoverbike!

all: Ah!

Ugh!

- Why did it work the other day at the carnival?

- We'll get it right.

We just have to recreate the magic.

- I don't know.

The magic seemed to have a lot less crashing last time.

- Keep trying, people.

We can't fully investigate the enigma

of sinking unless we study both successes and failures.

- I like that.

"The enigma of sinking."

Mind you, Nightshade, this isn't like the enigma

of combination.

- [laughing and snorting] No, Wheeljack.

That's a physical artifact.

This is something new.

- Ah!

[laughter]

- Right.

Old-school combining blends both body and mind,

while cyber-syncing fuses the bodies--

both: Keeping the component minds intact!

[laughter]

- [snorting]

Oh.

I think the new cyber-suits enhance Robby and Mo's

human adaptability, which means they are crucial catalysts

to a successful sync.

- What if the missing value is some physical

carnival element?

- I'm listening.

- Like maybe the rads generate a psycho-plasma.

Or syncing requires proximity to that carnival

adhesive cotton candy?

- Whoo!

[metal clanging]

- Yeah.

But since there are humans involved,

I'm going to say we're missing an emotional aspect.

- You mean a crush?

Right, Robby?

Because Izzy's not here?

- [laughing]

- No need to embarrass Robby about Izzy again.

- We do not need to do that again.

- Let's just focus and think sync.

[exhales] Hands in!

[surging music]

- Victory!

- All right!

Go, Malto-bots!

- See?

An emotional component.

Cyber-sleeves seemed to be the key.

- I don't know about components, but-- oh, whoa!

That is amazing!

- Going way up.

- Wait, wait, wait!

Ah, ehh.

- Are we doing it wrong?

- Getting weird!

[together] Whoa!

- Ah! Ah!

[transforming pulses]

[electricity crackling]

[together] Ahh!

[laughter]

- Oh, goodness!

- Holy hetero-dad!

- Come on!

- Uh, guys.

Wait up!

[upbeat music]

OK then.

I-I guess I'll see you guys later?

[metal clanging]

Huh? Huh?

[metal clanging]

- Ehh...

Ugh!

[metal clanging]

- Hey!

You're Aftermath, right?

- [grunting]

Ah. [laughing]

- Careful, that's contaminated Energon.

- Ooh.

Ha!

- OK.

One time, it mutated this mega giant bear, like waaah!

So you might want to step back.

What are you doing?

No!

- Ugh!

Do I look like a mutated bear to you?

- I mean, kinda.

- I know you.

You're one of those Terrans.

Run along, punk-bot, before I disassemble you.

- The name is Jawbreaker.

JB to my friends.

- I ain't your friend, punk-bot.

- Ugh!

Ahh!

- Um, you OK?

- Ugh! - Oh.

You want some help?

- Ugh!

[grunting]

Need energy.

[grunting]

[gasping]

- Good, huh?

There's plenty more where we're going.

Guess the Decepticons never told you about cave water?

- Oh, yeah.

I mean, they probably call it something different.

- That's what Terrans run on.

This should help till we get there.

- Why are you helping me?

- Why wouldn't I?

Nightshade says all Terrans are family.

And there's a saying in my family, "family first."

- We're not family.

- Well, you are a Terran.

So a messed Energon won't help you get your energy back.

Come on.

- [grunts]

- A little cave time should fix you up.

- You're taking me to a cave?

- Not a cave.

The cave.

All us Terrans were birthed there.

Until the Emberstone shattered.

This way.

[suspenseful music]

- [screaming]

- What about Breakdown?

Why is he so mad all the time?

- Maybe he met you.

Let's just focus on the cave, all right?

- Somebody's angry.

[bird chirping]

- Is Starscream cool?

He looks cool.

It's a cool name, and I scream in it.

I bet he'd like me, because I'm tough.

Oh, I bet I'd be his favorite--

- Ahh!

[clangs]

- [laughs] Tough, right?

Right?

- Ugh!

- So, they all fell.

Ahh!

But then, the sync worked again.

They came together.

[imitates engine whirring]

And the Hoverbike went...

[imitates engine roaring]

- How much farther?

- I think I'd be good at cyber-syncing,

because emotion is the key.

And I'm all fluid pump.

I got every kind of emotion.

- Please don't list them.

- I got happy, sad, mad, glad, scared, angry.

- Ugh!

- Yeah, I got so much emotion, I bet

I could sync with a toaster.

What's your favorite emotion?

- Loneliness.

I would love to be lonely.

- Aww. - Whoa!

Whoa! Whoa!

What are you doing?

- [cackles]

[grunts]

[grunting]

[screaming]

Leave me alone!

- Wow.

We synced.

- This is the opposite of leaving me alone.

- And you don't even have a cyber-sleeve like Robby or Mo.

Oh, wait till they hear about this!

I love it!

- I wish I couldn't feel that.

Undo! Undo!

- Oh, OK.

Fine, fine.

Back to bot-mode.

Hey.

Hey, hey.

Oh.

- You-- ugh!

Stop!

- Whoa!

Whoa-ho-ho-hoo.

- You're making it worse now.

- [laughing] Looks like we're stuck together, buddy.

[laughs]

- Argh!

- [grunting] Walk.

- Augh!

- [grunting] I'm feeling frustration from you.

- Where is this cave?

- Through the woods.

Then a cornfield.

Then a glade.

Oh, then more woods.

Then the cave.

- How far?

- About a mile.

Maybe two.

- Two miles?

No, I'm done.

Ow!

- Whoa!

Oh! Oh.

Whoa.

Oh.

[sighs] You're just tiring yourself out, AM.

I could tell.

Because I'm sharing the load.

- Don't call me AM.

- Here, there's a few sips left.

Oh.

Hey, dude, save some for me.

Not cool, man.

Oh!

But hey, I can feel your refreshment.

Cyber-syncing is amazing!

- Zip it!

That way?

- Oh, hey.

Maybe the cave water can help us

figure out how to unsync, too.

I think better on a full tank.

- No more talking!

- Oh.

Hey, don't we need a combo name?

- N-O. No.

[suspenseful music]

- Uh, Jawmath?

Afterbreak?

Mathbreak?

[gasps] Oh!

JB.

AM.

J'BAM!

- Ugh!

- Ha-ha!

Hey, someone might get lost.

- And?

What a goody two-fuse.

Ugh.

- Whoa, dude.

J'BAM doesn't disrespect nature.

I feel you resenting that.

- My half of J'BAM like smash and bash.

It's, I don't know, freeing.

- [gasps]

Oh.

Yeah.

Um, that's, uh, super freeing.

The cave's this way.

[suspenseful music]

[laughter]

- No reason J'BAM can't raise a little ruckus along the way.

- Wow.

You're feeling dizzy.

- You're feeling dizzy.

- Oh. I'm not.

- I'm not. You are.

- You are.

- [laughs]

- Are you sure this isn't wrong?

- Not really.

[laughter]

Yeah!

[engine revving]

- [gasps]

[tires screeching]

Who the heck is J'BAM?

- Yeah!

- It gets easier every time.

- Right.

Just like most alt-modes, there's

muscle memory involved.

- Looks like cyber-sync needs a combination

of shared emotion, proximity, and Emberstone energy.

- Careful doing that indoors.

- Let's go!

- Nicely done!

- Please understand, Dr. Malto.

These findings about cyber-sync are very preliminary.

- Sure.

It's only happened three times.

- So hungry.

- [laughs] That's because cyber-sync

uses 22% more energy.

- I recommend increasing your cave water reserves.

- And our lumpia reserves.

- [exhales]

- Just this stretch through the woods then we're there.

OK, stop pulling.

- This is taking forever!

- My sister Mo has this thing called a finger trap.

The more you try to pull your finger out,

the harder it holds on.

We gotta relax.

- Let's break stuff!

That's relaxing!

- And risk running you down?

Nuh-uh.

Nutrition first.

[gasps] Whoa.

I sound like my dad.

- You're not my dad.

And I want to go!

Ah! Oh.

- Whoa.

Focus, AM.

- I've had it with J'BAM.

[both grunting]

- Oh. Whoa.

Oh.

Ah!

Help!

- My butt!

Whoa.

Whoa!

Whoa! - [laughing]

- Whoa, whoa, whoa!

- [laughing]

Hey!

Don't-- OK, not my arm!

- Stop punching yourself.

Ow! - Wait, wait.

Hold up.

I think I know the missing component.

Pretend this is a cyber-sleeve.

- Ah!

[grunting]

- Wow, dude. Ah!

Whoa, whoa.

[grunting]

- What is that thing?

- [roaring]

- Does bad luck always follow you around?

- No, but it always seems to find me.

both: There's more of them?

- Oh, jinx.

[laughs] - Ugh.

- Get up! - And then what?

[grunting]

I'm dizzy.

- We're synced.

- But we're not in sync.

- Here we go. - My arm.

- Well, get in sync!

- You get in sync!

- [roars]

- Come on.

Knees then feet.

- I know how to stand.

- Ahh!

Augh! Augh! Ahh! Ahh!

- Can you run any faster?

- I got you, big buddy.

Those little baby shrimps aren't too powerful.

We might handle a few hits.

Ooh. Ooh.

Whoa.

- We can't handle the huge Energon blasts.

- [slurping]

- The emotional bond of cyber-syncing comes from

cross-recursive feedback between

oxytocin slash visual receptors and effective circuits.

- Uh, one more time.

- Only one thing can control the cyber-sync, and that's--

- Trust me.

- This way!

- Just listen to me already!

Whoa. Whoa.

Whoa!

- Ah!

Ow!

- We got to work together to win this.

- Do you ever stop talking?

- You ever listen?

If we switch to alt-modes while we're synced,

I bet we could take them.

But you got to let me drive.

- Not happening!

[grunting]

- [sighs] I got nothing left to lose.

OK.

- Taking control.

[engine revving]

- Not bad, kid!

Whee-hee!

Let's do this!

[tires squealing]

- Yeah! Let's do this!

Whoa!

- The J'BAM!

[grunting]

[tires squealing]

both: Whoa!

[laughter]

- Whoo!

[laughs]

[tires squealing]

- Ahh!

both: Ahh!

- I guess smashing can be relaxing.

- [laughs] I really can trust you, huh?

Yay!

[gagging]

A bit thirsty.

- That way.

[laughs] There you go.

Drink up!

- Ahh.

That's a relief.

The Decepticons are OK, but none of them

helped me like you did.

- You're a Chaos Terran, but you're still family.

- Chaos Terran, huh?

I like that.

- And now that you know what you run on,

maybe you won't be so hangry.

Right. There's plenty here.

Take what you need.

And maybe we'll try that cyber-syncing again soon.

OK.

I guess I'll see you later.

[suspenseful music]

- After this, the kitchen is closed.

Till dinner.

- No problem.

[burps] I think I'm almost full.

- Mm-hmm.

Mm-hmm.

Anyone seen Jawbreaker?

- Right here, guys.

- JB, you missed all the discovery.

We know all about cyber-syncing now.

- Almost too much.

- It turns out that emotion--

- I just cyber-synced with my new friend Aftermath.

No sleeve required!

- No. - Uh.

- Really? - Aftermath?

- You can tell us all about it, but you

must be low in reserves.

Huh.

Looks like this active day left us low on cave water.

- We'd better go stock up.

- Right.

Let's grab Hashtag and your mom.

We'll feel each other in on the way to the cave.

- [gasps] - Oh.

- Oh, no!

- It's empty?

- He took it all?

- Not your fault, JB.

- Yeah, Chaos Terrans gonna chaos.

- Ohh!

- Nutrition first.

[cackling]

Yee!
