(Lively theme music plays. Audience claps as KNOCKOUT enters the set. He sits down and smiles at the camera.)

KNOCKOUT: Welcome back to The Late Night Con Show. I'm your host: Knockout. Today our special guests is Megatron,. Now gentle femmes and mechs, give it up for the dark lord himself!

(MEGATRON enters set, looking slightly disgruntled. The audience cheers, but stop abruptly when MEGATRON puts a hand up to silence the audience. Someone coughs awkwardly. KNOCKOUT rolls his eyes and proceeds with the interview.)

KNOCKOUT: Pleased to see you, my lord.

MEGATRON: Pleased to see you too, Knockout. Now, please, tell me why I'm here.

KNOCKOUT: Didn't Soundwave tell you? (MEGATRON shakes head) Well, scrap, this makes it harder on my part. (Audience laughs) Lord Megatron, you are here because the beloved fans of our franchise want to meet you! Ask a few questions! Get to know you!

MEGATRON: (sighs) Very well. I suppose a few questions won't hurt.

KNOCKOUT: Thank you, Lord Megatron. Now the first few questions come from CrystallizedFaith. They ask: "Does he [MEGATRON] like K-Pop or Anime?"

MEGATRON: What in the pit is K-Pop?

KNOCKOUT: It's a type of music, I believe.

MEGATRON: And Anime is?

KNOCKOUT: A Japanese TV show.

MEGATRON: Well, the only type of music I like is Cybertronian music! Soundwave, start my favorite track!

(A static is heard from Soundwave. He uses a recording to say 'Not Again' then starts the song. It's mechanical and twisted. The audience groans in annoyance, and Knockout waves at Soundwave to stop.)

KNOCKOUT: Alright, now that that's over. My lord, K-Pop or Anime?

MEGATRON: Then I'll have to say neither! (He laughs)

KNOCKOUT: (Rolls eyes) Fine then. CrystallizedFaith wants to know: Do you like pink fluffy unicorns dancing on rainbows?

MEGATRON: Can I say no and leave?

KNOCKOUT: (sighs)  Fine, you're wasting my precious time anyway. (points to door)

MEGATRON: (As he exits) If anything, you're wasting my time. Now if you excuse me, I need to find Starscream; he's my punching bag for today.

KNOCKOUT: Well, it's a rough start, but we'll see you another time! Thank you, CrystalliazedFaith for the questions!
