Buster is forcing Jetfire to bring him back to the Autobots, until Jetfire automatically responds to a U.S. Military threat. Buster blacks out, and Jetfire returns to his original programming, delivering Buster to Shockwave. With the creation matrix at risk once more, and a false head reattached to Optimus Prime's body, things look bad for the Autobots.
