Toxicity

Episode Name: Toxicity
Series: Transformers Prime, Season 2
Rating: Three and a Half Spaceships

Mission Briefing:
We follow Bulkhead during the last quarter of the Relic Search. Megatron has sent a super-dangerous Insecticon named Hardshell with an Insecticon troupe after the same Relic. This Insecticon has had dealings with Wreckers before, and let's just say that not all the Wreckers made it. And now Bulkhead is on his list!
But that's nothing compared to the Relic. It's a highly-toxic Energon called Tox-En (sp?). It causes severe illness, paralysis, and eventually the death of a Cybertronian exposed for too long! But the Decepticons know a way to make a super-weapon that can wipe out a lot of bots with this Tox-En. Bulkhead has to get rid of it (luckily, there's a volcano nearby!).
But will the Tox-En, or even Hardshell, get rid of him first?

Mission Report:
The story was very well-done. Barely any glitches (though a few, especially near the end), and we could see where the other episodes cross in. And there was a good use of flashbacks in this episode. And I liked seeing how Bulkhead now considers Miko "family", and seeing how strong the bond is on his side.
However, it wasn't the most enjoyable episode. There were good parts, and fun parts, admittedly. But there were parts that weren't as enjoyable or comfortable. They weren't exactly the most comfortable moments to sit through, though it never got too terrible... just uncomfy (sp?)!
So this was a very well-written story, just needs tweaking when it comes for the enjoyment level in some parts.

Note:
Here's a helpful hint... Hardshell has a much of yellow scratch-lines on him, which seperates him from the other Insecticons.
