How was your camping trip?
It rained here. Did it rain where you were?
( car door slams )
Just a light sprinkle.
Aw, admit it, we had fun.
What's a little rain when you have a waterproof tent?
( laughs )
( chuckles )
Let's go inside and get warm.
Hey, at least you can't rust!
( shudders )
Just hearing about their vacation makes me chilled.
That's what they get for taking their vacation on Earth.
Should've gone to Cybertron.
They could have been speeding in the Sonic Canyons...
Hiking the Manganese Mountains...
Hanging out in the Acid Wastes...
Why would you want to hang out in the Acid Wastes?
Is that a trick question? The sunsets are amazing.
DRIFT: It does no good to dream of home
when we are here.
You must live in the moment, wherever you are.
Besides, Earth is awesome.
( all laugh )
STRONGARM: Oh, wow.
GRIMLOCK: Oh, my.
Seriously, it's beautiful.
There's so many things to do and places to see.
Earth has mountains, it has canyons.
Acid Wastes?
Not that I know of.
There you go, then.
You know what?
There's no Decepticon activity right now.
I'm gonna prove to you that Earth has as much,
if not more, to offer as Cybertron.
How?
Coordinates? Cybertron!
( laughter )
Surprise us.
Your wish is my command sequence.
Bee Team, this'll be an adventure.

ALL: Scrap!
Whoa! Aah! Aah!
Whoa! Whoa!
Aah!
STRONGARM: My tires are melting!
Ow! My tail! My tail! My tail!
Are we having fun yet?
Ha! Come on, Earth is unpredictable.
That's part of its charm.
I would not describe molten lava as charming.
Fixit. FIXIT: You're not supposed
to be contacting me.
You're on vacation.
Why did you send us into an active volcano?
It's active? Huh! I'll make a note of that.
I just thought you'd like someplace warm.
Warm and non-fatal, please.
Alternate destination programmed.
Okay. Who wants to give it another try?
( scoffs ) Huh?
The western region of Denny and Russell's home continent.
One of my favorite places on Earth.
I mean, nice, huh?
If you like holes in the ground.
Oh, there's a lot more to this place than holes in the ground.
Fixit. Give us some fun facts about this amazing place
you've sent us to.
Let's see. Uh, you're not far
from the ghost town of Edmundville.
A ghost town? Cool.
Your location has the highest temperatures in the area.
The average rainfall is slightly less than zero.
Oh, the variety of desert lizards where you are
is spectable-- Spectacle--
Spectacular.
The region is home to 200 different species,
including the leopard lizard, the horned lizard...
( laughing ) ...the spiny lizard, the gecko,
the iguana, the skink--
Uh, thanks, Fixit.
Okay. Who wants to see a ghost town?
( sighs )
( acoustic slide guitar theme playing )
Wow. It really is a ghost town.
I do not understand. The town is populated by ghosts?
Sort of. I mean back in the days of the Old West,
many dramatic things happened here.
Brawls, stampedes, the gold rush,
showdowns between outlaws and law enforcers
right here on this street.
And some humans believe that places like this
still contain otherworldly traces
of those who lived through such times.
Ah. As we are taught, the spirit of the warrior
lives on long after he is gone.
But what is a ghost?
Ooh! I know this from scary movies
I've watched with Russell.
( clears throat )
A ghost is invisible and mean,
and likes to frighten humans.
( whimpers )
Humans may show fear, but not warriors.
That was not fear, Master.
It was a small tactical retreat
to achieve battle readiness.
Boo.
( both scream )
Ghosts tend to be mean in scary movies,
but in other legends that isn't the case.
Let's do some exploring, huh?
See a real slice of Earth's history.
Uh, request permission to remain here
and count the moments until departure, sir.
Yeah, I'm good too.
( hums )
( sighs ): Fine.
But you don't know what you're missing.
( sighs )
The Acid Wastes are sounding pretty good to me
right about now.
( sighs )
Oh, there has to be something interesting
in this deserted town.
( ominous theme playing )
( suspenseful theme playing )
Huh?
I could have sworn...
Hey, Bee!
I don't think we're alone here.
How'd you know?
( vehicle approaching distantly )
( sighs )
Oh, great.
Here we are, folks. Edmundville.
One of the last true ghost towns of the formerly wild, wild West.
Back in its heyday, this dusty old street
was filled with cowpokes, gamblers, miners and outlaws.
( chuckles )
Bee could do that human's job, no problem.
TOUR GUIDE: Yet today Edmundville is completely empty.
Or is it?
Many legends surround this old town.
Take the old mine, for instance.
Folks say you can still hear the clink of pickaxes
and the laughter of old miners, long gone.
That old train hasn't run in more than a hundred years,
yet sometimes at midnight
its whistle can be heard for miles around.
( hinges creak ) ( swinging doors thump )
( all murmuring indistinctly )
Uh, then there's the tale of--
( ghostly moaning )
( all gasp and whimper )
( train whistle blows )
( imitating train whistle )
( tourists scream )
( ghostly groaning )
( all exclaim )
Oh! Tour guide gets to safety first!
That's the rule! Excuse me! Move it!
( engine idling ) ( tires screech )
( laughing )
Nice job, everybody.
( all laugh )
Okay, hiding and scaring those tourists, that was fun.
DRIFT: Ooh!
( imitating ghost groaning )
They're gone, oh spooky one.
( all laugh )
You were an excellent ghost, Master.
( snickers )
Your noises were most terrifying.
GRIMLOCK: When I came to tell you the humans were coming,
you said we weren't alone.
But you weren't talking about those humans, were you?
When I was walking around town, I sensed someone--
Or something.
--watching me.
And whatever it was, it didn't feel friendly.
Uh, then perhaps we should depart.
( Drift grumbles )
Briefly, uh, to consider our options.
Yes. Go.
We can't.
Human tourists apparently visit this town frequently.
If there's danger here...
Leaving before eliminating that threat would be dishonorable.
Split up and search the whole town.
Every building, street and alley.
( ominous theme playing )
It's quiet.
Too quiet.
A location cannot be too quiet.
It is either quiet or it is not.
Shh.
Nothing. Let's go back.
( gasps )
Ghosts!
Stay close.
( loud thump ) Not that close.
( creaking ) Whoa!
( coughs )
I can see why tourists come here.
The service is fantastic.
( explosion )
If you're ever trapped in a locked vault again,
just remember you can always make your own back door.
( grunts )
You were correct, Bumblebee.
Something is here.
Yeah. Ghosts.
( both gulp )
I'm not so sure.
Fixit, are there any Decepticons
who can make themselves invisible?
This is a ghost town and a Decepticon town?
I'm sorry about all this, Lieutenant.
I'm ending my career as a travel agent.
I found one Decepticon matching your criteria, sir.
( computer beeping )
He can do more than make himself disappear.
His name is Pseudo.
He was Cybertron's sneakiest shy-- Fly--
Spy!
Arrested for selling Cybertronian secrets
to off-world enemies.
So he does have the power of invisibility?
No. He's a shifter.
Pseudo can change his appearance
and even his actual physical structure
to blend in with any environment.
Thanks, Fixit.
So you think this has all been Pseudo,
scaring us the same way we did the human tourists?
GRIMLOCK: Yup. I knew it all along.
( laughs nervously )
I think I know how to find this 'Con.
Reset your optics to detect his heat signature.
I'm not going down that easily.
( radar beeping )
( engine revs )
( dramatic theme playing )
( sighs ): No one found anything?
Then...
Wait a minute.
Two Drifts?
( dramatic theme playing )
Huh?
One Drift, one Pseudo.
And one way to tell them apart is...Drift, transform.
Okay. And another way to tell them apart is...
um...
to see if he can do this.
( both grunt )
( tires screech )
Whoa!
Come on. If we lose him now, we may never find him again.
( dramatic theme playing )
( engines rev )
Split up.
Anybot have optics on Pseudo?
STRONGARM: Nope. SIDESWIPE: Nothing.
GRIMLOCK: Not here. DRIFT: No.
BUMBLEBEE: Bee Team,
transform to Bot-mode for more maneuverability
and quicker reaction time.
Strongarm. Did our tunnels intersect, or--?
( grunts ) Oh!
( suspenseful theme playing )
Hey, Bee, I--
( groans )
( groaning )
What'd you sucker punch me for, Bee?
( grunts ) Ow!
It wasn't me. It was Pseudo.
Oh. Well, that makes more sense.
Hey, guys. What are you looking at?
That's not me. I'm handsomer.
No, that's not me!
How can we be sure?
We could ask them something only Grimlock would know.
Uh-oh. Uh-oh.
What is Grimlock's favorite thing
about Cybertron's Acid Wastes?
Uh...who would want to hang out in the Acid Wastes?
Ah-ha!
I thought it was a trick question.
You're out of moves, Decepticon.
You sure?
( yells )
I look good when I do that, don't I?
Ugh!
( grunts )
That engine on the move...
it's Pseudo.
( yells )
We're gaining on him.
( suspenseful theme playing )
Look out!
Uh-oh.
( tires screech )
Whoa! ( grunts )
Drift, would you...?
Can you get them there?
Does a cat have whiskers that shoot lightning?
( both whimper )
If I may ask,
how do you plan to get us there?
( both scream )
Going...
going...
( both screaming )
( panting )
Did we emerge victorious?
( sighs )
I didn't change any of your minds about Earth, did I?
There are things to like about it.
Lots of cool terrain for free-running.
New rules to learn. Rules are always fun.
Ooh, and I love Earth movies.
Except the ones with ghosts.
Or cats. Or ghost cats.
Earth is where we have tested our mettle.
And made good friends.
And more-than-able colleagues.
Okay, team, time to head for--
Whoa.
GRIMLOCK: Now that is better
than the Acid Wastes.
( radio beeping ) FIXIT: Hey, are you guys
coming back or not?
I want to hear about your trip.
Hey, did you bring me any souvenir lizard samples?
Hello?
