(Time passes, Starburst joins the Bee team, but doesn't change his symbol. Varian grows a bit more and still wonders when he came on a mission. The team was about to face a problem with a con with quills.)
A con named Quillfire runs through a parking lot, being chased by the bee team. Night follows them on her bike. She speeds up next to Bumblebee. Bee orders to everyone to split up. Night catches up to Quillfire in a warehouse area, and so did the other bots. He begins to fire quills at them, then Bee pushes Grimlock out of the way. With everyone down, Quillfire makes his mark on a cargo container and walks off. Nightmare walks up to Bee with the team, he could barely move because he was shot by a quill. "Ah scrap, let's head back to the scrapyard.",Night said and picks up Bumblebee. They head back to the scrapyard, and Fixit takes a look at Bumblebee. Since Night is a nurse, Fixit needed her help taking out the quill out of Bee. "Dang, that looks like it hurts, doesn't it, mama?",Varian looks at the quill on Bee curiously. Nightmare nods. Fixit transforms into a tool to get the quill out with the help of Night's helping hand. Then she senses something in the quill, a toxin. But, the other quills apply different toxins. A moment later, Strongarm realizes that when Bee was unconscious, she was gonna be put in charge of the team.
Bumblebee wakes up from his consciousness, suddenly pulls a prank on the team and drives off. "What's gotten into Bee?",Varian asked.
"I don't know, but he's acting like a human child.",Night said concerned.
Later, the team went to search for Bumblebee. Suddenly Grimlock gets oil pie on his face, Sideswipe gets hit by loads of bolts, and Nightmare was dunked with pink paint on her paint job. She growls in annoyance. Sideswipe heads back to Fix-it and Russell while the bolts were dropping off him. Night also comes over pinkish and it made the red car snicker and laugh. Even Strongarm comes over with sprayed fire extinguisher foam all over her body because of bumblebee's prank. Varian laughs as well. "It's fire extinguisher foam. This is covered in any manuals I've read. Just tell how to fix Lieutenant Bumblebee.",she said.
"I don't think that's possible. The toxin will be like this until it's worn off.",Night answered her. Strongarm was concerned was happened to her first. She glared at her that she didn't want to speak of it. Night felt like big pink-colored lollipop, but washes the paint off. So the bots had to babysit Bee, but had to be explained first.
"I'm the king of the clothes dryer!",Bee yelled, excitedly. They turned to him and he was stand on a stack of dryers. Nightmare was worried that he was going to get hurt. Ah scrap Night thought. When he slipped, she rushed and grabbed him. A dryer landed on her head. "Bumblebee, you have to be careful. You're gonna get hurt.",she said. Bee started laughing and called her dryer head. He gotten up and walked off optimistically.
It becomes night time, Quillfire was now at the carnival grounds, in the elephant pen. He causes them a stampede. Back in the yard, the bots kept looking for Bee, but Strongarm suddenly steps into a tub of rubber cement. Grimlock helps her out with the tub. "Where is Bumblebee? He's gonna hurt himself again.",Night said.
"We'll make a plan. Strongarm, Grimlock and me will track Quillfire— Sideswipe, Russell, watch over, Bee. Don't let him leave the yard."-Nightmare
They all agreed. Sideswipe and Russell distract Bee by watching tv. A moment later, the two leave for something and Bumblebee loses interest because of a commercial. He walks off and overheard a conversation of fix-it and the other team that Quillfire reached the carnival grounds. Bee got excited and goes to the grounds.
"Scrap..!",Russell and Sideswipe said to each other as they returned and noticed Bee disappeared.
"Scrap...!",the trio whisper, seeing cop cars at the entrance.
"There has to be another way. There just has to be.",Strongarm said concerned. Then suddenly Bumblebee arrives and behind him was Starburst who was going after him.
"Starburst..! Sideswipe and Russell were supposed to be watching Bee...!",Night whispers to him.
"Well they did a terrible job by walking away.",he said. Bee was too excited to go the carnival like a little kid always is. Starburst grumbles lowly in annoyance, looking at Strongarm; hoping she'll have a plan. Bee thinks that the cop cars were Autobots like them which gave her an idea. While going through the plan, Grimlock sits on Bumblebee and Starburst though it was funny.
"Think that would hold him.",Night said.
Strongarm makes a fake illegal report to the cops and they drive off. She walks through the park and sees a stampede of elephants coming. She runs, but Be runs next to her. Strongarm was confused of how he came down.
"Incoming!",Night shouts to them. She dives down, shrieking at the elephants to scare them away, but bumps into them by accident. Bee was amazed and dazzled by what he saw. Night comes and looks back apologizing to the creatures. "Wicked. Elephants and Dragons!",Bee said surprised and happy like a kid. Strongarm didn't understand how he got away from Grimlock until he said never try sitting on bot while he transforms. "Uhhh",Night was disturbed.
"Not recommended."
Night notices that the elephants aren't back in the pen, so Strongarm was thinking of a plan. Bee think that he was gonna hunt for elephants, but Strongarm says no which made bee feel sad. "No! I mean- it's like, dragons and elephants. You can help us round up the pachyderms and put them back in their pen."
"I love cowboys!",he said happily.
"I know"
"Can I be the cowboy that rides a dragon?",he asked.
Grimlock and Strongarm both agree and Night sighs, even also agrees. Bee rounds up the elephants with Night. He felt like a cowboy.
Fixit alerts the team that Quillfire was close by, but suddenly the carnival rides turn on, thanks to Bumblebee. While he was distracted, the other three go in search. The con was unaware that he was already. The trio find his symbol on one of the spinning rides. "What's with this symbol?",Night asked to herself. Suddenly the con turns on the ride, causing it to spin around and around fast that you can get pinned against the wall and you can't get up. Quillfire hides in one of the tents, but it was a bouncy house tent. Out of nowhere, Bee bounces around happily and excitedly, so he gets Quillfire to join him. Meanwhile, on the spinning ride, Strongarm and Nightmare couldn't take it anymore. Night felt a bit sick from all the spinning. Grimlock was having fun. Then Starburst comes along, "Starburst! Turn off this ride!! Please!!",Night shouts. He nods and smashes the controls of the ride. It turns off and the two feels felt woozy. Night groans, "Why did I used to like this ride",she said to herself again. Starburst helps up Night, but decides to pick her up with his top arms.
"We have to check on the lieutenant",Strongarm said, until they heard a cry out from the con. The two continue to bounce. The four find them, but Quillfire attempts to strike bee in the air. Bee dodges and bounces him in the air to be strikes by his own weapon and passes out. The teams walks out with the con, but bee was still energized, looking at himself in distorted mirror; making silly faces. Now, Night was getting tired on his enthusiasm. Strongarm didn't know what to do until she came up with a plan. Bee was chained to a high tower. Night comes back down in her Predacon form from tying him.
"You said this ride was awesome! When does it get almost?",Bee said.
"Look pretty awesome to me".
The team had to wait until morning for the toxin to worn off. Night had fallen asleep, but in Starburst's top arms. Bumblebee was back to his old self again. They head back to the scrapyard, now that Quillfire was back in a stasis pod. Bee thanks Strongarm for her work. Nightmare was happy for her as well, "You did a nice job begin a team leader.",she said smiling.
"Thanks, Night"
"Fun Bumblebee was funny",Varian said, sitting on Grimlock's shoulder.
"Haha, I know, me too. While, a little",Sideswipe looked at him.
"Agh. Rubber cement? Heh, classic",Bee was pranked.
Night was getting another vision. Her twins liked doing pranks on the old nemesis, and they were funny. She makes a small smile about the prank moments then and now.
