It has been weeks since humans arrived on Ooo and with the help of Autobots, giant alien robots from the planet Cybertron, constructed a small settlement somewhere in the Grass Lands. Finn and Jake now reside in the new base where Minerva and her Minervabots are also stationed. It is located in the centre of the settlement and resembles a dome much like the top half of Minerva's original tower. The rest of the town consisted of smaller white hi-tech buildings surrounding the dome. At the edge of the town, Autobots with construction vehicle modes are constructing a giant circular archway out of machinery with the help of several well-built humans as Finn and Jake stand guard, staring at the horizon.

"See anything yet Jake?" Finn asked Jake. "That's the seventeenth time you've asked me that in the past ten minutes. And no, I don't see anything." Jake replied, annoyed. Finn reaches into his backpack for a walkie-talkie. "Do you see anything, Springer? Over." Finn asked over the walkie-talkie. Above them was a green twin-rotor helicopter surveying the sky.

"Negative, kid. Over." a voice from the walkie-talkie repeated. "Why do we have to stand guard when there's a robot in the skies?" Jake asked. "You know when like a bug crawls on you but you can't get to it? That's the same as when someone crawls on the Autobots. A smaller person can help to get that sucker off." Finn explained. "What do you think your mom's doing in her base? She's been quiet for a week." Jake asked. "Something about a project. She said it would be ready by the time the get-together with everyone starts tomorrow." Finn said.

"Ya think it's a new arm?" Jake wondered. "Maybe. I've needed a new arm ever since I lost my last one." Finn replied. A young light-skinned man wearing a white jumpsuit and beret approaches Finn and Jake. "Hey guys, it's time for rotation." the man informed Finn. "Okay, Seamus. Be careful." Finn warned as he handed Seamus the walkie-talkie before walking away with Jake.

"I will!" Seamus replied as he waves a crowbar over his head. As they walked along the pavement following the road, Bumblebee in car mode pulls up next to them. He lowers his window and asked "Need a ride?" via the radio inside him. "Sure thing, Bumblebee." Finn accepted. Bumblebee opens his left front and back passenger doors for Finn and Jake to enter.

Finn sat at the front while Jake stretches from the back to the driver's seat. Bumblebee reclines the driver's seat and pushes Jake backwards onto the passenger seat behind him by extending his wheel. "Hey, what was that for?!" Jake asked angrily as Bumblebee starts driving. "I have had a lot of bad experience with dogs. Also no one sits on the driver's seat without my permission." Bumblebee answered.

"Can I sit at the front?" Jake asked. "No. Be a good dog and sit at the back." Bumblebee said snarkily. "Why you little…" Jake said before Finn intervenes. "Stop it now, you two. Bumblebee, you could've asked Jake politely to leave the seat. Jake, don't make fights worse than they have to." Finn said to calm them down. "I'm sorry about pushing you, Jake." "I'm sorry for almost smashing you up, Bumblebee." "Please, call me Bee. All my friends call me Bee." the two exchanged.

"Good to see you two getting along." Finn commented. At Minerva's base, Bumblebee stops in front of the entrance for Finn and Jake to leave before driving off again. The doors were large metal hangar doors with a double-door embedded into it. They lift automatically and they enter to find a large futuristic lobby with many machines being developed and built by Minervabots, Autobots, and a handful of humans in lab coats. They approach a blonde male scientist with short spiky hair who just finished talking to a white Autobot who has a helmet-like head with a mouthplate and two fin-like metal "ears".

"Later, Jack. Good afternoon, Finn." the scientist greeted Finn enthusiastically. "Doctor White, have you seen my mom yet?" Finn asked. "Nah, she's still in her personal lab-slash-workshop. I think she's making some prototype something for you." Doctor White suggested. "Like an arm, maybe?" Finn implied. "Could be. We were told not to create prosthetics specifically designed for you. Anyway, I'm off to see that bridge-portal-thingy at the edge of town." Doctor White said as he left through the hangar door behind the three.

"Bye!" they waved as Doctor White left. They walk past many experimental machines before entering a large circular elevator. The elevator was a flat pad with a holographic console within a tall glass tube. Finn presses a "3" on the hologram and ascends the tube. On the third floor was a modern living room with all the necessities and a kitchen separated by a pony wall.

Much of the décor was salvaged from the Tree Fort, such as the red sofa, a partially-repaired "Timeless" clock above a rectangular window overlooking the town, and the stove, albeit a little banged up. "BMO, we're home!" Finn announced himself. BMO runs from behind the pony wall towards Finn, hugging his leg. "Welcome back, Finn!" BMO welcomed with his signature smile that everyone loves. "Heh heh, I missed you too, BMO." Finn said to BMO.

"So, whaddya want for dinner later? I'm cooking." Jake asked Finn as he searched the fridge. "I dunno, surprise me." Finn replied. "Did somebody say surprise?" Minerva's voice said out of nowhere. "Mom, where are you?" Finn wondered. A Minervabot jumps out from behind the sofa with a wide smile, dressed in an orange blouse and brown skirt under a lab coat, looking much like how Minerva looks onscreen. "Mom? Are you talking from a Minervabot?" Finn asked. "Yes! This was what I was working on. It's a prototype Minervabot that I can take direct control of. When I meet your friends it won't be awkward! Great, huh?" Minerva explained.
