Years ago, above the planet Clemency, a regiment of K-Class Decepticons prepare to drop into the battle raging below. The perky Torque introduces himself to a somber Fulcrum, who says nothing. And then, the order is given to disembark and enter the conflict...
"...scavenge, of course. What were you thinking?"
On Clemency today, within the crashed D-Class Worldsweeper they found there, the rag-tag team of Decepticon "Scavengers" desperately try to figure out what to do about the approach of the Decepticon Justice Division. With none of their number willing to own up to being the unfortunate soul the D.J.D. are looking for, Krok proposes that they stand and fight, and although Fulcrum laughs in his face, the other Decepticons get behind the idea and begin a plot to use the comatose Grimlock to their advantage.
Across space, on the Lost Light, Skids—his tune changed about his amnesia following a recent conversation with Chromedome—requests that the mnemosurgeon use his mind-reading abilities to see if he can unlock his lost memories. Chromedome discovers that Skids's memories of the last year have not just been suppressed: they have been erased, replaced with an imperative to "escape". However, all the memories from before that point that Skids has lost are indeed still locked inside his head, buried away by the trauma of the erasure of the others... but upon getting a glimpse of them, Chromedome is so horrified that he pulls out, assuring Skids that he's better off not remembering them. Skids grimly accepts this, but reveals to Chromedome that he always hears a piece of music playing inside his mind. Having heard it as well, Chromedome identifies it as "The Empyrean Suite", and hopes that Skids never understands its significance...
Give me your - OH PRIMUS NO.
Back on Clemency, the Scavengers lug the capsule containing Grimlock out into the open, transmitting to the D.J.D.'s ship the Peaceful Tyranny that they have killed their target and left him for them to collect, learning in the process that the Division is looking for Fulcrum. Presently, the D.J.D. arrive and approach the capsule, at which point Krok triggers the circuit speeders he laced it with, jolting Grimlock awake and into a berserker rage. The Scavengers delay leaving until they see which way the battle is going, but Grimlock quickly tires to their shock, and their subsequent attempt at escape goes nowhere as Helex appears, mocking Misfire's timing and blocking their path. The battle that follows is a gruesome one as Flywheels is killed by Tesarus's chest grinder, and Vos removes his face, laden with spikes, and jams it over Krok's own. Misfire accidentally shoots Krok when he tries to help him, and is then mauled by Kaon's pet Sparkeater. Tarn, meanwhile, turns his "weaponized conversation" on Grimlock, but before he can end his life, Crankcase comes to the rescue in the most unexpected way: he has recovered a cybernought battle-mech from the Worldsweeper, and begins raining destruction down on the D.J.D. Unfortunately, an electric shock from Kaon cripples both mech and pilot, and the giant robot is quickly taken down by Tarn. In answer to Tarn's bellowed challenge, Fulcrum then appears atop the Worldsweeper and delivers a speech decrying the D.J.D. as symbolic of everything that went wrong with the Decepticon movement. He leaps from the ship, and transforms... into a bomb! He lands with the least dramatic impact possible, barely causing a cloud of dust, at which point Kaon alerts Tarn to his detection of Overlord's energy signature. Considering Fulcrum dead, the D.J.D. pull out to pursue this new target, warning the Scavengers that they are all on the List now.
Someone set you up the bomb.
Fulcrum, however, is anything but dead, much to his own surprise: it turns out that the very first thing the Scavengers did upon finding him the previous day was remove his explosive charge—apparently Spinister was capable of the difficult manual task despite his lack of intelligence. Fulcrum tries to explain his story to them—how he was convicted of desertion of duty and, after initially being sentenced to death by Traitor's wheel, was conscripted into a K-Squad and reconfigured to auto-transform into a bomb upon deployment, only for his systems to become paralyzed with terror—but they lose interest very quickly and check up on Grimlock instead. However, the former Dynobot leader soon reveals what's wrong with him, when he can barely struggle out a "Me Grimlock" and inspects his hands as if he doesn't know what they're for. Assuming he was left behind because "he's practically brain-dead", Misfire suggests the Scavengers take him back to Cybertron figuring they can use him as a bargaining chip regardless of whether the Autobots or Decepticons are in charge of the planet. The others agree, but before they depart, Misfire delivers a eulogy for the fallen Flywheels, mocking his search for the Necrobot[1], and the team then descend upon his body to Fulcrum's shock, doing what they do best: scavenging.
Eighteen months later... a shadow falls over Flywheels's skeletal remains. The all-too-real Necrobot has come to mark his passing, and adds his name to a list of the recently deceased: right after Hound, Chromedome, Dipstick, Drift, and Ultra Magnus...

You will find profound philosophical meanings in the texts of some of the comments here, and then you will understand: "Strong beliefs and enthusiasm, in different dimensions, like beautiful galaxies, Optimus Prime's eyes, long-lasting love, never changed...". This public number will be released gradually, for sci-fi movies, philosophical views, original film reviews. The purpose, of course, is not only to illustrate the film, but to point to the metaphysical meaning outside the film. Looking forward to revealing what is truly pure in this era of forgetting simplicity.
