Ep. 30: The King of Ambition, Ill Will Unleashed

30

As the Autobots descended further into the volcano, Sideways meets them in a faceoff. With him warping, Vector Prime attaches Safeguard to his back, so Optimus could have a clear shot. With the Autobots closing in, Starscream unleashes the Omega Lock's power and grows to a tremendous size. He adorns a crown from the lava, declaring himself "Emperor of the Universe". Vector Prime goes to retrieve the Omega Lock but gets trapped under rubble. Wing Saber rescues him but gets attacked by Thunderblast. Leaving her in the lava, they could head to Cybertron. Meanwhile, the Cybertron Defense Team is sent to check on Cybertron but they find it infested with hundreds of spider-like Transformers called Scrapmetal drones. Overpowered and outnumbered, the kids call Optimus to go to their aid. But he is punched by Starscream. (Source: Wikipedia)
