Legend says that Starscream can never 100% die until he takes role as Decepticon leader long enough. That's basically why he became a ghost while Ironhide, Prowl, and the other Autobots and Decepticons who died stayed dead completely.
Just like in the last episode when robo-spike was using Megatron to shoot the autobots...then when spike turned on the decepticons, Megatron jumps out of spikes hand and transforms...only to demand they retreat. Lol why? He literally took the weapon from spikes hand and was still scared? It is the only plan the decepticons ever accomplished...and they accomplish that plan almost every episode.
I find it funny that despite the shows motto being “robots in disguise”, Bumblebee transforms in broad daylight in the middle of a crowded city and hangs out in an arcade with a bunch of kids. I suppose they’re still in disguise but I’m not sure what they’re disguising to hide from.
They disguise at first yeah, the cartoon series human directed to befriend them quicker than the movie, so they have no problem wandering around with having people go "AAAAAAA!!" to "oh damn kay, that's cool" after split second... Besides they gained worldwide human trust even the government by the end of the 1st episode already
It's a really good thing Carly wasn't a spy, or Team Autobot would have been screwed this episode. - 'May I come to your base?' - 'Sure! - ' 'May I look around the facilities?' - 'Yup, go right ahead.' - 'Secret plans?' - 'Third drawer on the left.' Great episode :D
As a kid I liked this episode. It was no surprise they ended up together. Back in the day they created a smart female love interest above Spike's reach without making it into WOKE message. I rooted for those two. in my 50s ... not disappointed.

In 1984-1985, I would race home EVERYDAY after school (3:10 PM) to catch the Transformers 3:30 PM show. I lived 1 1/2 miles away and was home in 12 minutes!🤗 I Love the Transformers ❤️. They are my Friends for Life🤓
Sadly for me they'd only show it around 10pm so using my dad's Sky box's recording I'd record them (would have to go through the channel's schedule and find them then select them to record) and enjoy them in the morning It actually felt rewarding when watching the show as I put in the work to get them recorded
Hi Bruce, I used to sneak out of bed at 5 am on Sundays to watch it on the BBC. I didn't even speak English at the time, and would have gotten my behind kicked had anyone caught me watching those "violent cartoons".. The irony of physical punishment for watching cartoons because they worried it might make me violent wasn't lost on me.. A lot of things happened. I ended up in fostercare (I wasn't the violent one in my family..), homes, the street.. over time though, my life began to become my own. It's never been easy, but that's alright.. I survived. Later, I became a parent myself. My own kids know about my childhood. We aren't rich, and my husband has cancer. It hasn't been easy on anyone. Our kids are teens and young adults now though, and free of the cycle of violence that ended with me. My kids are growing into caring, blessedly normal young adults who can laugh at their own mistakes. They *do* see irony, even if it doesn't always show them in the most favorable light (no, no.. one of them actually managed to shoot an arrow through his own hand.. I mean.. I never even knew anyone could feel their heart break and laugh at the same time until I sat in that emergency room with him. Then he started waving at people as we waited just to see people's eyes get big.. so yeah.. he has a sense of humor lol) They get me Transformers stuff because they know that my first step away from a life of abuse and towards them started with me wanting to watch robots talk about never giving up, no matter the odds, and that kindness matters.. it helped me dream of a better future than my own past, and to never give up on it. Thanks for watching it with me. We don't know each other, and I don't know your story, but even if we were half a world and many timezones apart.. we did watch it together.. you, me, and a whole lot of kids the world over. How many of them still dream of a better way forwards, and know that being strong has never been about being the most vicious.. 😊 Edit: I wasn't going to say all that but thought "why not?" It mattered.. I think it bears saying that. Many people *still* think cartoons make kids violent.. it's always been nonsense.. Now as adults.. come watch Bee and Spike sneak off to play video games instead of going to the hardware store with me ;) ❤️❤️❤️
@@a_diamond Making someone violent, predisposed to violence, and desensitized to violence are different conversation that exists on the same spectrum. By saying "cartoon violence has no effect on kids" you're also saying that cartoons and shows that teach kids proper social cues and manners like sharing, be sympatric, and not bullying has no effect as well either. Expanding that out you're also saying that there's no such a thing as a "good parent" vs a "bad parent". What would be the point of identifying and categorizing positive and negative values if it ultimately doesn't matter. There are kids who exhibit sociopathic behavior due to how they are hardwired and others it's cultural-environmental. It's the totality of factors that play a role: being raised in a abusive home, being raised in a violent neighborhood, listen to violent music, lack of negative consequences seen with negative behavior, etc. There's no single cartoon or just the viewing of cartoon violence alone that contributes to this. This is one the rare areas where I find myself in agreement with conservative activists. You have a strike a balance in what we expose kids that is considered "good entertainment"... and let's keep it real that includes many adults too. "Bad parents" are able to judge what would be a good or bad influence on their kids even if they take no corrective actions for themselves (the "do as I say not as i do" approach that we all hate). Yes it is ironic and hypocritical but most carbon-based lifeforms are not immune from this. All that said, I'm also of the belief that you shouldn't completely shelter your kids either because they must learn the ways of the world and how to handle adversity. All things in moderation, as it were. I'm glad you were able to escape your environment and teach your kids a different path. All hail Megatron the rightful ruler of Cybertron and Lesser Earth.
@@desecration171 Thing is, nature and nurture agree that I should have become a monster. I didn't. My worst "side effect" was writing happy fan fics of our favorite Lord Buckethead.. As for kids.. with my background I really don't have the resources to shelter my kids. I know how to survive though, and I have tried to pass *that* on to them instead. As for Megatron.. I do believe I have far too much in common with him for me to dislike him, even if tyranny has yet to lead to peace.. we seem closer than ever to seeing if that actually works though, and yes.. I worry about my kids anyway.. As for bad parents.. no.. they don't have that level of insight usually. If they did, they would usually be better parents. It would have taken very little indeed to make me happy as a child, and make all of our lives better and less fearful. The same goes for my father who murdered my mother.. all he needed to do to ever have a chance to "get her back" like he wanted, was to leave and get his head straight. They don't think that long term though. They don't have that kind of insight. "Criminal Mastermind" is an oxymoron..
I always loved that Transformers was one of the few cartoons of the 80s that changed their intro animation and theme style with each changing season. Only Gi-Joe comes to mind as the other. But even they kept the theme almost the same throughout.
Carly was honestly the most competent of the human cast in the series next to Sparkplug. Brave enough to sneak into Decepticon HQ, smart enough to reprogram Cybertronian machinery, even brave enough to travel across Cybertron with Spike in “Desertion Of The Dinobots.” And on top of all that, she’s an MIT Grad. She’s definitely top tier when it comes to main human characters. Then she got bastardized in 2011 with Dark Of The Moon. This is why we can’t have nice things.
Humans in the cartoons are weak though. Saying best human is like saying you are the best r3tard in the r3tard olympics. Not bashing my own species but I don't think I would buy a human action figure over say optimus prime or megatron. We are all r3tards in the cartoon. It's the truth and we should admit it. Gi Joes might not be but that;s because of plot armor. Humans only exist to be kidnapped by the bad guy who uses them as hostages. Even the evil scientist dr arkeville was useless and just got used.
I like how the Immobilizer is superior to... a gun. Also I like how Ravage attacks Bumblebee, and no one even bats an eye. You'd think that Spark would come running in screaming that he was attacked. Nope! "I met a girl though."
10:17 Megatron: Warriors are expendable! The most important thing is that I get what I deserve! And I always do. Me: After the other Decepticons heard that, they still would follow Megatron? Talk about blind loyalty
just an honest statement on his behalf. He could very well do without Starscream and other ''warriors'', but obviously not without his most important lieutanants, Soundwave and Shockwave.
12:22 so you're telling me this whole time the autobots have the ship ammunition on board and the decepticons despite the number of opportunities they had didn't bother to steal the ammunitions or blow up the base. Like if lazerbeak managed to sneak inside the base why hasn't he report it?
@@Psycho_3541 Optimus once lifted a oil tanker and yeets it towards the Decepticons, a feat that is impossible to do - unless your name is Prime, or you're the size of a giant. And they're all robots so I don't how why it would be hard to do that.
@@Psycho_3541 well I don't think they would even use them because as you said they are the ships ammo for its guns. It's just that they have it they exist yet nothing has been made use of them.
Yeah. If you wanted to get real technical, immobilizing the molecules would *probably* just turn it into ice, since heat is what makes molecules move (absolute 0 is when nothing moves at all). So the immobilizer would be like an absurdly strong freeze ray. But that’s the fun of sci-fi shows that are laid back about physics. Thinking of the real world logistics is more a fun thought exercise than anything.
@@enlongjones2394 I think it's pretty awesome they added the thought in there at all 😀 In the 80s it made me wonder if molecules could even slow down, and hey.. I found out how water changes phases and that physics is actually pretty cool 😊
@@enlongjones2394 also, if it did make molecules reach 0 Kelvin, that would make those molecules colder than space itself (it's around 2.7 Kelvin) so I wonder if there was yet another phase change at that point when all movement stops and the last energy leaves it.. usually temperature stays constant until the phase change is completed and we do seem to have a very difficult time getting anything to absolute zero.. it just makes me wonder..
Does it stop all the river water? That river probably flows for miles. What if someone was swimming in it? Or the fish in it? If not the whole river, shouldn't the water start flowing over the immobilized river?
It's not like trying to destroy a WHOLE planet and the life forms it's not savage or legit evil. He has tried to do that in many episodes before and after, and you get surprised when he lets a single human drown.
Are we sure Bumblebee got pulled over because of Spike's age? Dude's an awful driver, I've never seen someone come so close to causing a wreck by just getting onto the road.
ive been watching these episodes for the first time and this one might be my favorite so far because i just keep bursting out laughing. bumblebee and spike at the arcade, the insanity of carly and the fact that she had the balls to go and blow up part of the decepticon base, how absolutely unbothered rumble looked while using the device, and also just the comedy to me of wheeljack always making some insane inventions without worrying about the consequences like "look optimus i made a ray gun that stops the space time continuum!" and optimus is like "great work wheeljack i sure hope nothing bad comes from this!"
I showed this cartoon to my dad. he'd never seen it. I told him I watched this a lot when I was a kid. and he heard Optimus Prime and told me: He sounds just like John Wayne. I watched some John Wayne movies, and he's right. Peter Cullen was just doing an impression of John Wayne. and it works.
They should have had Ironhide be a chemical goop specialist instead of a weapons specialist in transformers 1. The introduction would have been hilarious.
How can an immobilizer affect a hologram? And why should Ironhide feel bad for being fooled by Hound’s holograms when the whole point of them is that they’re realistic enough to fool whoever sees them?
Well, the pilot episodes ended with the nations of the world gifting energy and resources to the Autobots for their service saving them from the Decepticons. I would assume that they have regular supplies and funds sent to them to support the continuing war effort against the Decepticons. It’s an interesting contrast. Megatron and his Decepticons try to take what they want, and as a result, they HAVE to keep raiding power plants to maintain their war effort. Meanwhile, the Autobots get everything the Decepticons would want, as a reward for defending the planet.
"A Decepticon never retreats!" Starscream says, conveniently ignoring all the times they've retreated
In the first two seasons starscream wasn’t the smartest
@@antifurryfoundation55 I like how dying made him smarter
Legend says that Starscream can never 100% die until he takes role as Decepticon leader long enough. That's basically why he became a ghost while Ironhide, Prowl, and the other Autobots and Decepticons who died stayed dead completely.

Those weren't retreats they were strategic manouverings.
I love how Starscream declares himself leader every time Megatron falls over.
Megaton: Coughs*
Starscream: MEGATRON HAS FALLEN! I AM THE NEW LEADER OF THE DECEPTICONS!!
Why did megatron keep him around knowing he was always looking to replace him
Usually not long after Starscream says that, he gets shot down or overthrown!
@@candelarioeliserioii2277 He respects the hustle 😂
E
**Megatron slips and falls**
Starscream: *"NOW I AM LEADER OF THE DECEPTICONS"*
“We shall miss you Ironhide!”
*Literally a few seconds after*
“I miss you already…”
I like how Ironhide just retires and Optimius Prime is like "Ok, bye."
Just like the war with the Deceptions just stops.
Iron Hide could have actually used WWE moves when he captured LaserBeak just like what Sideswipe did to Ravage in the Make Tracks episode
In hindsight, Ironhide should’ve stayed retired 😔
just like real life!
It's no use forcing someone / somebot to stay if they don't want to or feel unable to, Optimus is a wise leader
I find it funny that despite the shows motto being “robots in disguise”, Bumblebee transforms in broad daylight in the middle of a crowded city and hangs out in an arcade with a bunch of kids.
I suppose they’re still in disguise but I’m not sure what they’re disguising to hide from.

Though in other episodes they do play a sting operation by staying in alt mode to trick car jackers.
I was sure it was robots in the skies for quite a while

@@MenderSlen579 Nope. It means to show how important he is to Optimus.
Despite the setbacks, Megatron always maintains a positive can-do attitude towards his objectives. What admirable persistence! :)

13:24 Bumblebee drives off and then is suddenly listening to Prime??? 😂
Oops bad editing!
This episode was so funny. So much bumbling incompetence.
Especially at 10:24
@@TigerWing141 Yup, absolutely hilarious.
@@JMurdochNZ rust in peace!
It’s amazing how the Autobots constantly put Spike’s life in danger by bringing him along on their missions and fights against the Decepticons.
@@39HundredBecause Spike always wants to come along
6:48 Ratchet: Tries with all his strength to twist his head off. "He's frozen solid!"
Me: Wait, what were you expecting if he wasn't frozen solid?
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂
1st appearance of Carly, Spike's future wife
she was cute....for a cartoon lol
She's annoying and he's an idiot.
then they have a son called Daniel
Where's Daniel?
@@tomwalker389 This happen in 1985 when Spike was 16. We first meet his son in the Movie in 2005 when Daniel was 9. The math is obvious.
Megatron: **sneezes**
Starscream: now I am the leader of the deceptions!!
this brings a lot of memories in my childhood thank you so much Hasbro I even got a teary eye😢
Sidenote: as the Immobilizer stops the motion of water, it's a nice touch that it became a solid block.
Yeah. If you wanted to get real technical, immobilizing the molecules would *probably* just turn it into ice, since heat is what makes molecules move (absolute 0 is when nothing moves at all). So the immobilizer would be like an absurdly strong freeze ray.
But that’s the fun of sci-fi shows that are laid back about physics. Thinking of the real world logistics is more a fun thought exercise than anything.
@@enlongjones2394 I think it's pretty awesome they added the thought in there at all 😀
In the 80s it made me wonder if molecules could even slow down, and hey.. I found out how water changes phases and that physics is actually pretty cool 😊
@@enlongjones2394 also, if it did make molecules reach 0 Kelvin, that would make those molecules colder than space itself (it's around 2.7 Kelvin) so I wonder if there was yet another phase change at that point when all movement stops and the last energy leaves it.. usually temperature stays constant until the phase change is completed and we do seem to have a very difficult time getting anything to absolute zero.. it just makes me wonder..
Does it stop all the river water? That river probably flows for miles. What if someone was swimming in it? Or the fish in it? If not the whole river, shouldn't the water start flowing over the immobilized river?
@@jeffleisten9068 Heh.. I don't have answers but I'm starting to feel bad for Sharkticons ;)
Megatron was legit evil for once. He just let a human drown. He was wrong, of course, but that was way more savage than normal.
It's not like trying to destroy a WHOLE planet and the life forms it's not savage or legit evil.
He has tried to do that in many episodes before and after, and you get surprised when he lets a single human drown.
13:56 Soundwave, bro knows just about everything.🤣🤣🤣🙌
Wow that intro was the best of all seasons
Can we all appreciate just how awesome this show was.
Starscream was actually more competent than Megatron in ways in this episode.
He's had more than his fair share of those moments.
Starscream- We should vaporize those auto bot fools and fuse their carcasses into slag.
Not gonna lie. I thought that line was funny.
I liked that Jazz played jazz.
I love how ironhide is always saying it's all my fault
Ironhide-"HEY ITS LASERBEAK!" (Shoots up the place) 😆
😂
4:01 Bumblebee learned his lesson from this and commented on it near the beginning of “The Autobot Run” IIRC
Strange, he never realized that thing stuck on his flank, that was actually a spying device 🤔
Poor Carlie, this is as important as she gets.
they just stand so casually in the middle of battle
The Immobilizer's control pad looks a lot like Daniel's shuttle tracker in The Movie.
these are the best transformers series from 1984-1987 i love to see, others than that not nice anymore
Bumblebee is wingman of the century
19:37 Let’s Go Jazz!!!!🎸🥁🎺🎵🎶🎼
So this was the episode that introduced Carly.... one brave woman...
Carly sure is proactive
thank you . hopefully we can get the rest of season two and three soon
This episode reflected to what happened to me when I was 7 years of age
Ever notice how Carly and Chip Chase have never been in a episode together?
And no, Scramble City doesn't count in American G1.
"run in to town and pick up a new polarizer"as if you could just pick one up at any given Home Depot or Best Buy....
But there must've been many shops selling electric devices I town, back in the 1980s
*There's a dislike on this video = somebody needs to get kicked*
How did Carly find where at the bottom of the sea was the Decepticon base just like that?
I don't know. it's a 80's cartoon stuff just happen and there's no logic to it.
10:28 Rust in peace! 😂
Are we sure Bumblebee got pulled over because of Spike's age? Dude's an awful driver, I've never seen someone come so close to causing a wreck by just getting onto the road.
Sheesh how long were those jumper cables Spike had? I need a pair of those. 😂😂😂
God finally, Spike being useful for once...
3:51 This requires a Tom and Jerry scream
ive been watching these episodes for the first time and this one might be my favorite so far because i just keep bursting out laughing. bumblebee and spike at the arcade, the insanity of carly and the fact that she had the balls to go and blow up part of the decepticon base, how absolutely unbothered rumble looked while using the device, and also just the comedy to me of wheeljack always making some insane inventions without worrying about the consequences like "look optimus i made a ray gun that stops the space time continuum!" and optimus is like "great work wheeljack i sure hope nothing bad comes from this!"
"a Deception never retreats"
Well that's a lie
that cop's face when he pulls up next to bumblebee at 3:01 made me lose my shit lol
Carly was more interested in boning Bumblebee 😅
Mega turkey😂 Good one Trailbreaker😂
I showed this cartoon to my dad. he'd never seen it. I told him I watched this a lot when I was a kid. and he heard Optimus Prime and told me: He sounds just like John Wayne. I watched some John Wayne movies, and he's right. Peter Cullen was just doing an impression of John Wayne. and it works.
They should have had Ironhide be a chemical goop specialist instead of a weapons specialist in transformers 1. The introduction would have been hilarious.
8:21 Can somebody tell me what the name of this Transformers OST is this here?
Skyfire, only appeared for a few seconds w/no dialogue? It would of been great if he made more appearances.
they couldn't do more because of legal trouble with the toy and character
@@IAmNotHere000 Yeah. Harmony Gold sued Hasbro in 2013 for the Comic con exclusive, but was dismissed.
Harmony Gold sucks.
How can an immobilizer affect a hologram? And why should Ironhide feel bad for being fooled by Hound’s holograms when the whole point of them is that they’re realistic enough to fool whoever sees them?
Lucky to find these on YT now because I seen these on other sites but were bad copy's
10:20 cant stop laughing at this :D
Next on Unsolved Mysteries - how do the Autobots fund replacement parts such as a new replacement polarizer?
Well, the pilot episodes ended with the nations of the world gifting energy and resources to the Autobots for their service saving them from the Decepticons. I would assume that they have regular supplies and funds sent to them to support the continuing war effort against the Decepticons.
It’s an interesting contrast. Megatron and his Decepticons try to take what they want, and as a result, they HAVE to keep raiding power plants to maintain their war effort. Meanwhile, the Autobots get everything the Decepticons would want, as a reward for defending the planet.
Robert Stack as Ultra Magnus hosting
Ironhide’s midlife crisis?!❤😂
1:08 "TAKE COVER!" 🤣 Ironhide! Why did you have to do that?!
whats up with those signs above spike and carlys heads at 2:36? LOL
8:47 did Sideswipe just called Starscream a b*tch?
This OP is just too funky.
