Quotes 

• [the Combaticons enter a city, frightening the people] 

  Onslaught : Combaticons, transform!

  [the Combaticons transform. Brawl and Swindle bump into each other] 

  Swindle : Heh-hey, watch it, Brawl!

  Brawl : You two-faced pipsqueak! Stay behind me! Huh!

  [Brawl shoves Swindle, knocking him over. The Combaticons advance down the street] 

  Onslaught : Combaticons, form Bruticus!

  [the Combaticons combine into Bruticus. People run away in fear. Then, a shot hits Bruticus in the chest, blowing him to million pieces. Defensor, who fired that shot, appears. Swindle, who somehow survived the explosion without a scratch, appears from under yellow board with wheels among the debris] 

  Swindle : Defensor!

  [Defensor fails to notice Swindle. He turns back and addresses the people on the street] 

  Defensor : Call sanitation! There's junk all over the street.

  [as Defensor walks away, Swindle starts to collect parts from the pile of debris] 

  Swindle : Now where am I gonna find parts?

• [after Swindle sold the parts of the other Combaticons in black markets around the world, he dumps the worthless parts in a junkyard] 

  City junkyard attendant : What's goin' on?

  Swindle : [glares at the attendant]  I'm unloading some junk. You got a problem with that?

  City junkyard attendant : [stammers in fear]  Uh, n-n-no, sir.

  [Starscream and Skywarp, who were looking for the Combaticons, notice Swindle in the junkyard] 

  Starscream : So that's where all the parts are! I think that sleaze is up to something!

  [Swindle transform to vehicle and drives away, but Starscream grabs him and takes him to Decepticons' base] 

• [Swindle is brought before Megatron. Megatron is furious to hear what Swindle did, because he needs Bruticus for his current scheme] 

  Swindle : [on his knees, caught in fear]  It's... it's not my fault, Megatron! This greed is built into my personality component!

  [Starscream and Skywarp roughly grab Swindle and drag him backwards] 

  Megatron : I want Bruticus reassembled, and I want it now! And as an extra added incentive, Soundwave is installing a bomb in your head.

  [Soundwave finishes installing the bomb in Swindle's head] 

  Starscream : [smiles nastily]  And if you haven't reassembled Bruticus in 15 hours, it will go off!

• [Swindle takes by force the parts which he sold earlier, and assembles them into the other Combaticons] 

  Megatron : Very good, Swindle! Your head will continue to keep your body company. Transform to Bruticus!

  [the Combaticons gather closely, but oddly Brawl just stands still. Swindle pulls him] 

  Starscream : Something is definitely wrong...

  [the Combaticons try to combine into Bruticus, but fail, and fall on the floor with heavy thud] 

  Megatron : [yells in fury]  Swindle!

  Swindle : [gets on his feet]  Megatron, I-I-I couldn't find Brawl's personality component! I didn't think it would matter...

  Megatron : 'You didn't think it would matter?' Well, think about this! The bomb still ticks! Bring back the personality component in time, or disintegrate trying!

• [the Decepticons approach the Autobots' headquarters and place the orbital disruptor cannon on a hill, unaware that the Autobots have been forewarned of their scheme] 

  Megatron : Combaticons, transform to Bruticus!

  [the Combaticons combine into Bruticus. Then the Autobots emerge from their hiding places and open heavy fire on the Decepticons. Bruticus is hit again and again, but strangely he does not fire back, just trying akwardly to shield himself with his arms] 

  Starscream : [to Megatron, pointing angrily at Bruticus]  Your stupid warrior is just standing there!

  Megatron : Bruticus! Transform back to the Combaticons!

  [before Bruticus can comply, a direct hit in his chest forces him to separate back to the five individual Combaticons, all scattered around] 

• Starscream : [transforms into jet]  I'll show those putrid louts how to fight!

  Streetwise : [transforms into robot]  Hey, Screamer! Your pilot's license just expired!

  [Streetwise shoots at Scrascream, scoring direct hit. Starscream is forced to retreat]
