As soon as they arrived at the scrapyard and updated Fixit and the Clays on what was going on, Bumblebee and Grimlock assisted Knockout and the still unconscious Steeljaw to the med bay. This time, Grimlock gently placed Steeljaw on a berth and let Knockout get to work. The others voiced their concerns to Bumblebee, who, while sharing some of his teammate's sentiments, brushed them off. This time, it was Knockout's call, and while the others have no idea what it's like to be on the red medic's bad side, Bumblebee does, and wishes to not go there.
Bumblebee spent the rest of his day in the med bay with Knockout, talking to him as he worked on repairing Steeljaw. They talked about how the rest of the day went after the meeting, then about the mission. By the end of the procedure, Bumblebee was just finishing telling Knockout all he knew about Steeljaw.
They left Steeljaw to rest and recharge alone in the med bay and joined the others. Aside from Bumblebee, Fixit, - who was now working on repairing Knockout - and the Clays, nobody wanted to get close to the red medic.
Knockout sat in silence most of the time, only speaking when asked a question; he let Fixit do all the talking. Denny and Russel offered to help buff and paint Knockout, which the red medic gladly accepted. He looked up and saw Bumblebee staring at him. The yellow and black mech smiled and winked before walking off to look for the others.
The entire time, his processor kept wandering back to Steeljaw, and what Bumblebee told him about the ex-con. A part of Bee's info dump stuck, even after he drifted off into recharge for the night.
