Transformers Energon: Reboot/Adjust

Episode 3: Adjust:

The Earth Federation establishes a new staging ground to protect earth via energon grid barriers, powerful enough to prevent the terrorcon attacks.

Synopsis
Inside Unicron, the mysterious new partner of Tidal Wave has a three faced debate within himself how they plan to revive Megatron and Unicron with the effort, has been limiting, as they cannot put energon into reviving one while trying to revive a gianorumus planet that has taken 2 to 3 years and still going,they must do whatever it takes as the humans have quickly build the energon towers on Earth some other beginning on the other worlds protecting by the autobot and decepticon alliance with very little procrastination.

However "he'  believes their trump cards remains in the retrival of the autobot workers, Ironhide, Strongarm and Signal Flare!!!! Upon there previous battles. So quickly he summons Tidal Wave along with some Terrorcons to retrieve secretely take three autobots two who can mine and retrieve energon faster than their drones,, Cyclonus along with a few terrorcons are told to find one of the autobots in the Artic. Hotshot and Carlos attempt to code the final coordinates within the energon tower in the Artic, when Ironhide and Strongarm have a tough time trying build the energon tower as they cannot work together, even Signal Flare starts compaining wants to start configuring the activation sensors already, quickly Hotshot tells them to stow it or else they can be off the tower project, then Skyblast contacts Hotshot with new energon stars, having finally finished with the latest batch of energon found in Alaska and the Grand Caynon,and they wish to test it out on Ocean City, Scavenger is left in charge while he returns to Ocean City.

Throughout their time in the artic, Ironhide and Strongarm continue have difficulties trying to bond together into developing the towers, it isn’t until the argument forces them to procrastate outside developing the tower, not even finalizing the final coding process to test out the tower in the skies,  Scavenger shuts them up, and tells to them take a break, Beachcomber then shuts down the tower for now. Ironhide and Strongarm then decide to take drive.

Not knowing that they are being watched, by Cyclonus.

Back with the Energon Tower, Carlos Lopez, Scavenger and Beach dicuss the recent events between Ironhide and Strongarm, perhaps cooling off from this energon tower will give them to work better, meanwhile Carlos discusses that maybe they should get Red Alert to work on it, to which Scav says that he  is working on the third Tower in Ocean City. Luckily Beachcomber has been learning from several autobot senior designers on operating similar energon barriers on cybertron once to stop a decepticon unit a long time ago. As this happens, Ironhide and Strongarm and Sig continue to argue about the energon tower, but then are interrupted when the terrorcons drive by them, forcing the trio to change up their speed to maximum speed!!! In this chase, Ironhide moves his top cannon head 360 degrees and blasts at Divebombs and Cyclonus, who switches  into heat beams and firing in road where the three autobots continue driving. Strongarm quickly transforms and throws his energon axe like a boomerang at Cyclonus who quickly transforms back into truck mode and rams into Strongarm at full speed, while Cyclonus unleashes barrage of missiles, Ironhide and Flare blasts Cyclonus,  then make it for a nearby cave, where Ironhide fires debris at closes the hole. The two are trapped, with Cyclonus reporting to Tidal Wave that they managed to get Strongarm at least, he is transported to Unicron,  meanwhile Ironhide and Signal Flare are trapped, and Flare’s

Beacon Signal Cannon arm has been damaged during the chase and must take at least 40 minutes to fix, and without his satellite cannon they cannot call reinforcements quickly. Regardless Ironhide attempts to find a way out. About 6 minutes later, Carlos along with Coder and Beachcomber finally the sensor activator for the tower up and running and only needs Ironhide and Strongarm to activate it, Red Alert also reports that he managed to get the same in Ocean City. Scavenger then tries to call Ironhide via comm link but to no avail not realizing he is trapped, inside the cave Ironhide and Flare apologize to each other for getting into this mess and hope to find Strongarm, Signal Flare gives him energon weapon to light up like a flashlight Cyclonus is ordered to open up the cave and get the other three autobots, while Cyclonus prepares for maximum destruction against the energon tower as Jetfire has arrived. The autobots in the artic find that Ironhide, Strongarm and Sig Flare are missing are cannot find them due to their comms being down by unknown means, this leads Jetfire organization a search party so Jetfire decides to find trails perhaps car tracks to their last location. Carlos goes with Red Alert, Jetfire transforms into jet mode, while Beachcomber and Scavenger insist on staying as they sense an attack.

In the caverns, Ironhide manages to get a signal, barely, but Signal Flare believes it to because there are getting closer to an end of the cave, but then they here fire and like missiles. Is that them? Says an overeaggered Ironhide who rushes to see if its Scavenger, but then Sig quickly stops him in time,  but Ironhide wonders if it is help, but then the debris are destroyed by a Ravage drone, forcing them to flee. In the main tower, Scavenger recieves a call that the autobots were under attack as Strongarm. is missing his weapon has been found by Jetfire, elsewhere in the artic, as Red and Carlos recap the past they receive a small bit static message from Ironhide!!!! Ironhide sends coordinates to Red which leads him to a cave where he finds a helicopter firing at the cave. Red Alert transforms and takes Carlos to a safe destination, where he demands the transformer’s surrender, and Cyclonus  fires back, hitting Red hard nearly cracking the ground, Cyclonus turns his sights to Red Alert, and the two get into a scuffle, finally Ironhide and Sig Flare get out of the cave, where Signal Flare is able to repair a small portion of his cannon, and Ironhide notices Jetfire and Sig sends the message. Jetfire finds them and carry them to the tower but then Ironhide drops down when he sees Red Alert being trampled, Forget about me, get to the towers said Ironhide, stubborn kid, just what I needed to deal with another Hotshot says Jetfire. Ironhide helps out in defeating terrorcon pawns. Jetfire and Sig Flare contact Scavenger but for some reason get nothing. As they do not know, Cyclonus take down the autobots: Scavenger and Beachomber, where they take apart various equipment from the Tower to use for Unicron. Jetfire then notices this and divebombs the two, as the hotheaded decepticon Cyclonus prepares a dogfight, he transforms into a hyper helicopter form and rams into Jetfire but then is zapped by Sig Flare damaged Satellite Cannon, sending flying down. Down but not out, Cyclonus prepares another attack but then their master orders them to retreat as they got what they came for, teleporting them. In the aftermath, Ironhide explains that he needed to help Red Alert as Hooligan was worlds different than the power he had said Ironhide, Jetfire noticed his actions and even saved Signal Flare believes he’s one step ahead to get the spark of combination. Well this has been a good day for you Ironhide, we still don't where Strongarm is or why the Terrorcons didn just rip apart the tower said Scav.

Which leads the episodes  last scene to Unicrons body, where Strongarm is hooked up inside metal cords, and Tidal Wave continues to break him by finding information from the inside, meanwhile, Cyclonus is praised for their efforts for taking one of the omnicons, and perhaps their intellegence could quicken the way to the energon hunt, not to mention the equipment that Unicron desperately needs.
