On the road path to an Energon crater similar to the one where Cliffjumper was supposed to die, a green 2010 Ford Mustang sports car says in a male voice 25% similar to Cliffjumper's original voice, 25% similar to Bumblebee's original voice, and 50% similar to Smokescreen's voice says, "So, in Colorado Springs, I was on the lookout, when out of nowhere, these high beams light up my rearview. Then it hits me: I'm illegally parked!"


In a section of the Arizona deserts, an orange and red Suzuki Ninja R3 motorcycle asks dryly, "A parking ticket?"


The male voice answers, "(Filtered) Nope: the boot."


The female voice guesses, "(Filtered) Big metal tire clamp, also known as the Denver boot, direct from Denver, Colorado, said to be impossible to remove."


With the sports car, the male voice replies, "Bingo! So, the local police do their thing, and I wait for them to get all the way down the block. That's when I kick off my new shiny shoe, and BANG!"


The female remarks, "(Filtered) Colorado's finest soil themselves."


The male replies while revealing more than a few names, "Just like with Skulkwall, Satchtorch, Whaletate, Polkgreen, Bumblestrider, Bumblethrust, Fair Trade, Jaffa Pion, Duestreak, Rot Spot, Hoove, Sabres, Heatwise, First Shade, Midironhide, Razz, Fetfire, Krupp, Sproul, Levo, Trodimus, Nattershot, Falconside, Rilverbolt, Hinger, Dorrpath, Naster, Maudside, Salcatron, Rireflight, Woundpounder, Imtractor, Horizonseeker, Optisight, Hoedbuster, Nopspin, Vorque, Trintwist, Sculptra Magnus, Bladewheel, Wheelstriker, Burl, Fairazor, Fairwave, Yawnvon, Chromehawk, Cyberchrome, Cosmojet, Bevac, Stallback, Rirestar, Wisitron, Rot Shot, Vubcap, Wuffer, Inzerno, Nirage, Poverride, Cyclonepower, Thundercyclone, Infernawing, Pyroseeker, Sackmire, Zuinwild, Votorstorm, Tidetracker, Windwhisper, Vingshot, Tunstreaker, Zverve, Zamayatron, Strailbreaker, and all of the others, you know me, Starfree; mess with Stiffwalker – "


Starfree replies, "And you get the flamethrowers."


Stiffwalker laughs at this.


Starfree says, "Not sure how that complies with Autobot rule number 1: keep a low profile?"


Stiffwalker replies, "What can I say? Patrolling for Energon out here in Dullsville gets lonesome. Almost makes me miss the Decepticons."


Starfree asks before saying, "Like Jasper, Nevada is a party with anyone? (Filtered) We're alone wherever we travel on this rock, Stiff."


Just then, Stiffwalker's monitors picked up on a lot of Energon.


Stiffwalker then says, "I'm getting a signal."


Starfree asks, "(Filtered) You need backup?"


Stiffwalker replies, "Do I ever need backup? Yes, I actually do, please."
