- Executive Agent Croft, what are you doing here?
- Quality control.
Why are you not out in the field, Agent Schloder?
- We haven't received any Decepticon alarms.
- Why wait for alarms?
Decepticons are all around us,
disguised in plain sight.
- Well, yes,
and GHOST gets involved when they start trouble.
- They are trouble, inherently.
Let's not wait for it to start before acting.
- But we have state of the art surveillance and analytics
to assess threat levels and keep us ahead...
- Global Hazard and Ordinance Strike Team.
Which part of the GHOST acronym makes us sound
like a reactionary agency?
Your team's Deception arrest record is light this month.
Go do your job, little brother.
- Can do, sis.
I mean, yes, Executive Agent Croft.
All recovery agents deploy.
We have a mission.
- Can you move your... - Agh.
- Okay, focus up.
I know it's a little tight in here
with all the new members of our t...
family, but while Robby and Mo are in human school,
I thought we could talk about the most important part
of being a Transformer.
- Having an adequate space in which to learn and live?
- Choosing your alt mode.
An alt mode isn't just another way to get around.
It's a form of protection,
protection for you and this whole family.
GHOST is out there arresting any Cybertronian they find,
so staying safe and staying hidden
is all the more important.
- How is that funny, Hashtag?
- Okay, so it sounded like
you were gonna talk for a really long time,
so I looked up Bumblebee alt mode, and...
- Whoa. You're so...
- Cute! - Wow.
- And this was a disguise?
- Is this you?
- So why'd you switch vehicles?
- My old alt mode was revealed.
So I needed a new disguise
so I could disappear.
- How do I... I mean, us... we...
How do... how do we choose
our alt modes?
- I'm gonna let Twitch and Thrash take the lead on that.
They know what it's like to be a Terran finding a new form.
So today, they're in charge.
- I was once a protoform like you.
Then I saw this drone, and I said to myself,
that could be me.
- Okay, you scanned it by accident.
My alt mode has meaning.
Your alt mode can be an expression of your personality.
Rocinante!
- Anyway, you can all learn from us.
And together, we'll pick the perfect alt modes for everyone!
- No, thank you.
I like who I am as I am.
Besides, I'm working on something
that requires my attention.
- Nightshade, wait!
I could help. I have a third wheel!
- Well, I'm ready to learn, Twitch.
But I don't want my alt mode to be an accident.
I want it to be perfect,
like Bumblebee's.
- Boundaries, Jawbreaker.
We'll find you something less... me.
- Aah!
- You got this?
- Who's ready for the ultimate adventure?
You are! - Right.
I think I just found a life hack
for DIY breakfast pastries.
- Well, I've got the life hack for life.
Wha... - We're going into town
to find you an alt mode.
- Twitch, come back, this is the only spot
in the barn that gets a good Wi-Fi signal!
- Pick whatever vehicle you want to scan.
Ooh, how 'bout a sporty coupe?
Or a zippy hybrid.
Station wagon.
- What's going on? I can't get a signal.
- Hashtag, there's no Wi-Fi out here.
Now focus. We're here to find you
an alt mode, so start looking.
- I will, I promise.
Soon... ish.
- Come on, trust your big sister.
You'll love having an alt mode.
The sooner you scan a vehicle,
the sooner we can go home and get you back on the Wi-Fi.
- And then you can watch videos of sneezy puppies with me.
Plus the singing cantaloupe.
- Deal.
- Whoo! Sneezy puppy time.
- Hashtag!
You scanned a GHOST van!
We're supposed to hide from GHOST,
not become them.
- You said pick whatever I wanted.
- Oh, no, shh, shh, it's... it's fine.
It's fine. Just change back,
and... - Mission frosty complete.
You're welcome. Let's get back to HQ.
- Uh, who got the Berry Mash-Manilow?
- Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh! That's me.
- Oh, no. Oh, no. Oh, no.
- You licked this, didn't you?
- Okay, no pressure.
I know you keep changing the subject
'cause you don't want to talk about alt modes,
but there's still plenty a big bro can show you...
like Fluffy Ears!
- Aw.
There is no more perfect name
in the human language.
- Yeah, she is pretty cute.
- Is she also a part of our family?
- I mean... basically.
- I am so glad you told me.
This changes everything!
Thank you, Thrash.
- Sure! If you like cows,
just wait till I teach you more Earth stuff.
Like...
How to juggle!
- Uh-huh. And what can my big brother
teach me about load-bearing timbers?
- Uh...
- Which one of you changed my settings?
- Nobody. You drove us here.
- Ew, ice cream fingers.
Ew. Ew, ew, ew, ew, eww.
- Eh, Kwan, you want me to drive?
- I'm not doing this. It's the van.
- Oops.
- Stay calm, Hashtag. I'm here for you.
I'm your big sister,
and I'm not going to let anything bad happen to you.
- Twitch. Uh, Twitch!
- Whoa!
Hashtag!
- It's a hologram.
Whoa!
No! Please!
My sister's in there!
- Do you know what would make this go a lot easier?
A forklift alt mode.
- Do I want to know?
- Hey, Bee.
I'm helping Nightshade, like you said.
I... I'm not totally sure what we're doing,
but we're definitely bonding!
- Go ahead.
- Bumblebee! GHOST took Hashtag!
- Give me the details. I'm on my way.
- That thing is cursed.
- I am gonna have some serious words
with the vehicle maintenance team.
- Okay, I gotta get out of here.
But if the agents see me in bot mode,
they'll capture me, and if I drive by myself,
they'll know I'm not a van.
Ugh! I thought having an alt mode was supposed to be fun!
- Now connected to GHOST intranet.
- Wha... where am I?
Hello?
Twitch?
Mom?
Dad?
Okay.
- Ow! - Ow.
- My leg! - I can't see.
- Huh. Well, that doesn't do anything.
- Is everything on the fritz?
- All right. Fine.
- What's happening? - What's going on?
- Where are my cameras?
Bagheri, if this is your idea of a joke,
you know you're not funny.
- Agent Schloder, the whole system's malfunctioning.
It's a cyberattack.
- Impossible. Our security is tighter
than toe shoes on Bigfoot.
- But sir, there was an intruder alert at the entrance.
- Warning, security breach detected.
- All agents to the detention levels.
You don't have to be a dentist to know
this is not a drill!
Somebody tell me what's going on.
- Anti-Energon fields are down.
It's a Decepticon jailbreak!
- This jail's broken all right.
I just walked out of my cell.
- Oh, no!
Target Bombshell and Shrapnel.
The rest are mindless copies.
There's too many of them!
- Bumblebee, I am so, so, so sorry.
I just wanted Hashtag to pick an alt mode,
but then they took her before I could stop them...
- Whoa, whoa, whoa. Cool your core and re...
- I'm her big sister. I'm supposed to protect her,
like... like you,
like a leader.
- Leaders always have a plan B,
like calling for help when they need it.
You did the right thing, Twitch.
- Careful! There are lasers.
- Not anymore. Looks like security's down.
Cameras aren't responding either.
Saving Hashtag's gonna be a breeze.
- Sir, I think I found the source of the cyberattack.
It started when this van connected to our intranet.
It's using its GHOST credentials
to brick the whole system.
- Decepticon infiltrator, eh?
Not on my watch.
Bagheri, take control of that van
and take it down to the detention center.
- Okay, whatever this place is,
it has to be a part of my alt mode.
So...
Why can't I make anything work?
Okay.
I'm a van again.
What's going on?
No, you don't.
Ugh.
Back online, whoo-hoo!
- There it is, the Decepticon.
- Ah, scrap.
- We're gonna need cover.
- It's a Decepticon trick.
Fan out. Search each one.
Find the infiltrator.
- We gotta get out of here.
- Hashtag, I'm so sorry.
- Ah! You came back for me!
- Of course I did.
I'm your big sister.
I'll always protect you.
- Are you hurt?
- I'm okay.
Except I, like, left my body I think.
Yeah, at first I was scared,
but then I saw these buttons, like, on a tablet
and was like, whoa.
But they didn't do anything.
- You were outside of your body?
- That's not a normal alt mode thing.
- And you saw buttons?
- Yes. I pressed all of them, and nothing happened.
- Uh, yeah, it did.
- This plan B is gonna need a plan B.
Roll out, Malto-bots!
Keep going. Don't let any GHOST agents see you.
Hashtag, I think your vehicle mode gave you
control of GHOST intranet.
- Ah, yay me?
- Okay. We gotta find an exit
without any GHOST agents seeing us.
Hashtag, I need you to access the building's schematics.
- Oh-ho-ho, I can do that too?
- As long as there's Wi-Fi,
I'm pretty sure you can do anything.
- I'm in.
- Sir, the cyberattacker, they're back in our system.
They're looking through files.
I can't keep 'em out!
- Croft is gonna have my hide for this.
- Whoo! I can connect to the Internet from anywhere!
- How's the schematic coming, Hashtag?
- Exit's that way,
but the map didn't show this much traffic.
- Bug boy's our distraction.
Move!
- That's a lot of Insecticons.
- Soundwave too?
Run!
- Whoa.
- You okay, Hashtag?
- Still on the Wi-Fi.
And I think...
I'm getting the hang of this.
- Then find the way out... fast!
- All your belong to us.
- I remember that guy.
- Uh-oh.
Easy does it.
Good boy, Skullcruncher.
- Roll out, Malto-bots!
- Stand down!
- Whoo-hoo! Now that's what I call...
- Plan B.
- There you are.
We were worried sick.
- Our sleeves were lit up all day.
- Sorry. It's all my fault.
I took Hashtag into town, and we...
- Got me a new vehicle mode!
- Whoa-oh, Hash-T! - Whoa.
- This is awesome!
- It's so cool. - That's awesome!
- A GHOST van!
Looks like we're coworkers now.
Is that all that happened?
- There was some trouble,
but we handled it,
together.
- Hey, where's Nightshade?
I wanna show them my new alt mode.
- They've been acting kind of strange all day.
- It's the best way to keep a secret!
- Nightshade, what have you been doing all day?
- Why explain
when I can show?
I've been creating a bigger, better,
safer space for the whole family.
And I couldn't have done it without my big brother's help.
- Mm-hmm! Wait, what?
- With the three of us arriving,
the Malto family has grown larger.
And while I do not convert forms,
I thought our shared space should.
I tried to make the perfect spot for each of you.
Room to fly, a bike ramp,
computers, a lab,
and of course, space for Fluffy Ears.
You're going to love her.
- Good to meet moo.
Nightshade, when did you have time to build all this?
- Oh, I've been chipping away at this for a while.
- But we're the big sibs.
We're supposed to be taking care of you.
- When you care about someone, that part goes both ways.
- Now this isn't finished.
Each of you has to add your own touches.
- I brought the Wi-Fi!
- Wait, you have Wi-Fi?
- So sneezy puppy time?
- A deal's a deal, sis.
Roll them puppies!
