The Master Builders

Plot Summary:

Autobot architect Grapple has designed a Solar Power Tower that would cleanly and efficiently produce all the energy that the Autobots need. However, without a plan of defense to go with the proposed energy plant, Optimus Prime vetoes its construction. On their way back from repairing a damaged Powerglide, Hoist and Grapple are trapped in a canyon by the Constructicons, who offer to help Grapple build his Tower, allegedly without Megatron's knowledge. Once the Tower is completed, however, the Constructicons turn on their Autobot 'allies' and hand the Tower over to Megatron.

Best Dialogue:

Prime: (while playing basketball with Spike) "Here Spike, compute quickly!" (flicks the basketball to Spike, knocking him over)

Watch For...

The rocks in the canyon scene. They almost look photorealistic.

Comments:

Either the Constructicons really did plan to hand the Tower over to Megatron all along, or they thought really fast!

Hoist and Grapple just disappear from the Ark for an unknown amount of time and no one notices? I'm sure they were gone for more than one day to get all that work done on the Tower, even given that they could have left the plans with the Constructicons.
