Chapter 3: Locked In

Line and Act Bloopers #3

Starscream and three drones practice their lines together in a room.

"So I just smack you in the face?" Starscream asks re-reading his script.

"Yeah, just not too hard!" Steve whimpers.

"I mean I'll try but I'm not promising anything. Wanna test it out?"

"Sure!"

Starscream smacks Steve sending him flying into a wall cracking it!

"OW!" Steve yells falling to the ground.

"Whoops!"

Starscream doesn't hear Optimus coming up behind him.

"Starscream-"

"AAAHHH!"

Starscream accidently kicks Optimus between his legs and a loud bang is heard. Starscream and the drones just stare in horror as Optimus's left optic twitches.

"Optimus? You okay?" Starscream asked.

"Yes...I am fine...just...trying to recover!" Optimus said in a mono-tone voice and through gritted teeth.

"Uh, look I'm sorry, I'll just go now!" Starscream said leaving the room.

Right as he left, Optimus fell face-first to the floor in front of the drones.

"Uh...Optimus?" Steve called out.

Optimus' view on the show

"I believe being the leader of a group hoping to spread peace instead of evil is a big honor. It's not just the action I like, but is being able to interact with others and have fun. However, all the fight scenes can be a real bother for me. But it seems the fans really like that about me...and I hope I don't die in season 3."

I find it tiresome that we always have to die!" G1 Optimus said.

"Me too, it can be annoying at some points!" Movie Optimus said.

"I never understood it, but hey, it's what the director wants!" Animated Optimus said.

"Indeed!" Optimus nods. "At least this show doesn't have Sentinel Prime!"

"DON'T GET ME STARTED!" Animated Optimus sneers.

"Dude chill!" G1 Optimus said.

"NO!"

"Primus!" Movie Optimus face-palms.

"Mabye I should go..." Optimus suggested and walks away.

But as he leaves the room, there was FOC Optimus standing right there.

"Uh...hi?" Optimus greeted.

"Hey..." FOC Optimus greeted.

"Awkward!" Knockout said walking by.

Shockwave's view on the show

"Being evil fits me well! I do look menacing and mean anyway. But...do I really need this gun all the time?"

"You get used to it!" G1 Shockwave said.

"Yeah, but I'd rather have 2 regular hands!" Movie Shockwave said.

"Anyways, being able to take the role of a scientist is very interesting. Logically! However I do hope these Predacons don't kill me. Megatron will need me as I am the most reliable decepticon, at least after Soundwave who I'm surprised doesn't have to say a word."

"Am I the only one who hasn't truly met any Soundwave?" Animated Shockwave asked.

"Yeah, why don't you have to have a gun?" Shockwave asked.

"I guess the director thinks large claws are better!" Animated Shockwave said holding them up. "Besides, having a gun arm is kinda weird, can't you guys replace them or something?"

"No!" The others said rather angrily.

Animated Shockwave realized he just hit a nerve.

"Uh..." Animated Shockwave was at a lost for words.

"We may find it weird, BUT THEY'RE OUR GUNS!" Movie Shockwave snarled.

At this point the interviewer sneaks away.

"Whatever, besides I can't believe you only say one thing...Optimus!" Animated Shockwave snarls.

"That's kinda lame!" G1 Shockwave said.

"At least I didn't get killed on my own planet, get arrested or get blasted in the optic by Arcee!" Movie Shockwave scolded all three other Shockwaves.

Suddenly, FOC Shockwave comes in running.

"AAAHHHH! MOVIE SHOCKWAVE GET YOUR PET UNDER CONTROL!" FOC Shockwave yells.

"DRILLER STOP!" Movie Shockwave yells.

Driller proceeds to destroy the whole room before stopping nervously.

"OH GREAT!" Animated Shockwave snarls. "LOOK WHAT YOU DID!"

Both Movie and Animated Shockwave start brawling. Eventually Prime, G1 and FOC Shockwave join in for fun leaving Driller looking confused. Driller groans and sucks up all the Shockwaves and leaves.

Line and Act Bloopers #4

"Are you sure this is okay?" SkyQuake asked as he and Dreadwing check out the stasis pod for the episode "Masters and Students".

"Go ahead, try it! You need to test it!" Dreadwing said.

"Okay, I'll try!"

SkyQuake walks in and Dreadwing closes and locks it.

"Hey, not bad, a bit tight but overall, it's okay!" SkyQuake shrugged from inside. "Can I come out now!"

"Hold on!"

Dreadwing tries to open it but it won't budge. He keeps trying but it wouldn't open.

"DREADWING! GET ME OUT!" SkyQuake starts shaking the pod.

"Sorry bro, you're stuck. It won't open!"

"GET HELP! I'M SCARED!"

"I'LL BE BACK...he-he..."

SkyQuake waited for what felt like hours before realizing he had been waiting an entire day. When it was nightime, Dreadwing came back actually forgetting to unlock him. When he did, SkyQuake walked out with a growl.

"Uh hey SkyQuake, sorry about that, I was busy with something." Dreadwing nervously said.

SkyQuake just got in his face, fists clenched.

"The only thing stopping me from kicking your ass right now, is how tired I am." SkyQuake whispered before walking away.

"Oooh Dready is in trouble!" Breakdown and Cliffjumper teased from nearbye.

"GGGRRRR!" Dreadwing growled and ran after them through the canyon.

Transformers Video Games #2

Thunderwing sits uncomfortably in a large chair checking out the info on the Transformers Prime video game.

"Ugh, I hated how I barely got to do anything until the end." Thunderwing sighed to a listening Optimus, Megatron and Starscream.

"Well you were the biggest of us all! Why not save you for last? I mean we fought earlier in the game." Optimus shrugged.

"True, but my whole body was stuck at the time!" Thunderwing sneered.

"Lighten up, it was a game! Never happened!" Starscream scoffed.

"So your saying WFC and FOC never happened to us?" Megatron asked. "I do remember begin pounded my Metroplex. Primus that hurt!"

"I hope the Combaticons don't want to kill me still!" Starscream gulped.

"Uh...I just saw them near the studio." Thunderwing said. "Wait, how do you guys remember that stuff, you don't even look like you did on those games."

"Oh yeah, this is weird." Optimus said.

Suddenly the Combaticons bust in.

"STARSCREAM! YOU ASSHOLE! YOU'RE DEAD!" Onslaught roars.

"AAAAAAHHHHH!" Starscream yells jumping out of a window with the Combaticons right on his tail.

Just then, FOC Soundwave comes in.

"Have you guys seen your Soundwave?"

"Right down the hall there!" Optimus said.

"Thanks!"

FOC Soundwave leaves and Megatron is in shock.

"Thunderwing, can you punch me, right here?" Megatron rubs the side of his face. "I don't believe what I just saw!"

"Sure!"

POW!

Megatron shouldn't have asked Thunderwing to do that since Thunderwing's fists were as big as Bruticus. Let's just say...MEDIC!

He-he, alright! Now then, call me crazy all you want but I just happen to revisit an old favorite character from a completely different franchise. He wants to join in on the interviewing parts of the story.

Meta-Knight: I sure do!

Me: Anyways, there will also be a few gag reels every now and then. I SAID FEW!

Meta-Knight: (Pulls out sword) HE SAID FEW!
