Transport To Oblivion

Episode Name: Transport To Oblivion
Series: The Transformers, Season 1
Rating: Three Spaceships

Mission Briefing:
It was believed that the Decepticons were defeated permanently. But the Autobots learn otherwise when Megatrons and the Decepticons attack a power plant! Then, on a spying mission, Bumblebee and Spike discover that the Decepticons have invented a SpaceBridge and are trying to figure out how to send Energon Cubes to Cybertron over it. And they're discovered spying!
Megatron's playing with Bumblebee's memory may cause the Autobots their lives...

Mission Report:
This is not one of my faves. I blame it totally on the scene where Megs alters Bee's memories using a wire-gizmo thingie in his chest. It personally gives me the creeps... I don't know why. It just wasn't enjoyable.
The story needs work. It has a few glitches in it. Like, the Test Run #2 scene is confusing. If they needed to stall for time, couldn't they have done something else? And how in the world did Shockwave call Megatron on Earth? Did Megatron steal his own computer off of Nemesis? It's the only way where Shockwave knowing Megatron's "number" makes sense.
And, I know they needed it for the series, but why wasn't the Ark flying or working, or... something! They made it looked fixed in the end of the three-parter, and now it's broke again. I know it was for the series, but annoying all the same! That's only a few of the glitches, but you get the general idea.
The good thing I could say is that it wasn't total trash. There was some enjoyment, but this was not my favorite episode.
This is a so-so episode.
