Triage

Episode Name: Triage
Series: Transformers Prime, Season 2
Rating: Four Spaceships

Mission Briefing:
This time, we follow Wheeljack and Ratchet as they go after their Iacon Relic. But their opponent is a silent and deadly one... Soundwave! And considering the Autobot duo do a lot of bickering, well...
Today may be hectic on this quarter of the Iacon Relic Search as well...

Mission Report:
This was a very good episode. The bickering between the Autobots made things amusing at times. The plan that Ratchet made and Raf helped with was cool, clever, and managed to work! Something's a little off about the Decepticons not checking for a virus, but it admittedly makes story-sense (hey, that did blow, though here's a glitch... they said it wasn't supposed to!). We saw more of Soundwave's ability, and learned that the drone he uses has a name... guess what it is! That's right: Laserbeak! Nice classic reference!
Now, there were glitches. And this time, it was more of an unofficial multi-parter, not just a "series within a series" start-off. The cliffhanger was uncomfortable, but made you want to see the next episode so you could see what the heck happened! It was well-done in that sense, though it was a major player in losing that final Spaceship.
So, it could have been done better, but it was a well-done episode anyway.
