Ep. 23: The Jungle Planet Key and the Space Bridge to Earth

23

A massive conflict unfolds on the Jungle Planet as Decepticons search for the Jungle Planet Key among decoy boxes. Ransack is punched by a boxing glove while Megatron and Sideways find only rocks. Megatron identifies the Key with Leobreaker and Snarl, who execute a tactical retreat. Megatron insults Leobreaker, prompting Optimus Prime to offer trust and support. As Megatron prepares to strike the fallen Optimus, the Matrix of Leadership activates the Key, opening a space bridge to Earth for Autobot reinforcements. Optimus defeats Megatron and secures the Key. On the return journey, Vector Prime questions the mission while Jolt mentions an adviser named Suzuki, whom Coby silences. At Earth’s North Pole, Professor Suzuki discovers a Transformer trapped in ice. The being scans a car to break free, revealing itself as another Transformer. Colonel Franklin observes this first robot in disguise from a distance.
