The last line of dialogue goes so hard. The entire dialogue was absolutly impeccably written. Every line counted. And not to mention the VAs that conveyed so much emotion. This series was brilliant, the best I'd confidently say, and I dont believe they will make ever again a series that good. This is peak fiction right here.

The best villains are the ones you understand, the ones you respect. Megatron is an amazing villain who is hard to hate.

Breakdown"fight?" Knockout"mmm dive"

watching the series and the movie was worth it just to see Knockout flutter his eyes at the end. i dont know why, but that was one of my favorite clips in the whole series. hes so cute

Ratchet's VA is performing well above any paygrade I imagine he got. The inflections are immaculate. "Even if I were capable do YOU THINK...that I would HAND YOU?? a limitless supply of --?" absolute masterful character work. I can tell Ratchet takes pride in the words he chooses to use when he speaks to others with authority, so he hangs on the words he feels are most important for them to hear.

I know Shockwave internally was like “Finally someone I can talk to without having to dumb it down” 😭

Okay I know deception is all part of the Decepticon cause but you have to understand Megatron's logic & his way of deception is so convincing that I almost wanted to help him

Jeffrey comb ratchet+😊🎉

Okay so shockwave only needed part of a predacon bone to clone a new one, right? And that means it is similar to a DNA test for humans, in that something as small as a hair could work. So why couldn't knockout break a small piece off with his drill or saw, then take only that back? Just large enough for shockwave to be able to clone a new predacon, but small enough to be relatively unseen

Now Knockout knows how Starscream felt when Shockwave returned.

Knockout is like How the frag Did I get into this mess?

I like how megatron doesn't use insulting nicknames for autobots like a lot of villains do. He uses their names or gives them non-insulting nicknames, even if here he was just trynna oil ratchet up

Shockwave seem like a chill dude to be friends with not unless your his enemy

Ratchet & stacy math+😊🎉

😊🎉

This episode personally encapsulates that Autobots and Decepticons could've been more than enemies of they chose to put their differences aside. They share common likes and interests, proving that they can indeed coexist with one another without seeing one another as enemies

1:07 OH HE DONE GOOFED UP😂

TFP: How to write a villain petfectly.

Say thank you ratchet say your welcome😊🎉

You gotta respect Megatron's directness and honesty.

But did takeover cybertion bm megtron

Watch Ratchet and Shockwave talking like scientist with out sides is satisfactory for some reason

Even though I grew up on G1 I gotta say after sitting and watching the prime series with my kiddos I gotta say Prime is by far the best transformers series.

4:04 But Ratchet, They Needed That!

Ratchet and shockwave becoming bestfriends

I can respect Megatron being honest and upfront with his answers

This show has shown me how good Megatron is. You can't get good villains who are leaders without them having both prowess, martial skill, and prowess. The honesty, and the sense that he accepts who he is and plays to both his rep and his opponents really shows how he works.

Decepticon tech is always impressive 🤩

1:05 seeing ratchet in the light stepping away from it and towards megatron is the dark is great symbolism, that despite claiming to wish to use the synthetic energon for good, Megatron is as war hungry as ever and not to be trusted

Love that Shockwave views Ratchet as an esteemed guest. He truly sees him as a fellow scientist and actually respects him given they're both very intelligent

I love how vain Knockout in the series.. its hilarious how he's about paint and parts like rims.. one of the best character in the series.. especially the zombie episode one with Starscream..

I would like to see a time line were these two were sentences that work together

Is ratchet voiced by Jeffrey Combs?

"I Find it repulsive, the thought of you fleshies Interfacing, Br r r r .!". Love that, cracks me up every time. I think the voice actor for Knockout was also Spottswood in the Team America movie.

He was never in danger. There's always another Weyoun.

2:49 Knockout-(After getting pepper sprayed by Fowler) GAH! My optics! Wonder why the Autobots don't have pepper spraywith them. It can come in handy against the Decepticons. XD! 🤣

People say Meg is evil and all, did they forgot Megatron was initially a mining robot, a lower class in a caste system? The system Cybertron had back then was basically if you're born in nobility, great! You're set for life. But if you're born into the ghetto? Sorry man guess you're stuck with crackheads and muggers for the rest of your life with no chance to rise. The reason Meg was angry when Orion Pax was chosen and not him is because Meg KNEW the council prefer some naive and soft-hearted idiot to be leader so they can still influence him, while if Meg becomes Prime he'll surely destroy the comfort life the council once had. A hard and brutish life taught Meg things aren't gifted, but rather earned. Optimus would never be able to change the system with just words. "Sometimes the good guys have to do bad things to make the bad guys pay"

I just love that Megatron was actually HONEST with Ratchet, he might not survive but thanks to him Cybertron could be back alive, the acting here was just superb, both Frank Welker and Jeffrey Combs both killed in these conversation, fantastic work by the actors and animators, man I love Prime so much.

The fact the spray actually worked on knockouts eyes

The mixture of Megatron's honesty and deception with his adversaries depending on their intelligence is truly incredible. He is so amazingly evil, but at the same time he is honest and, to a degree, respectful to his adversaries

Are we sure they are just "doctors"...mostly ratchet

This shows that people on opposite sides of a conflict can get along with each other. At least for a time.

Brutal honesty from THE Decepticon. Ironic.

Huh, never knew Jeffrey Combs did voice acting, I'm so used to hearing Ratchet's voice here coming from the Weyoun clones in Deep Space 9.

I may be slightly nostalgic for TFP because I grew up with it, but honest to God this is one of, if not THE, best versions of Megatron. He's physically imposing and unbeatable for anyone other than Prime, yet he's also on another intellectual level when it comes to deception/persuasion. You can almost be fooled into thinking he's a good guy with how logical his arguments are, yet you can just tell he's being completely dishonest the entire time. Its that slightly unhinged nature of, 'I know you know I'm bullshitting you, but will that do anything to stop you?' that gets me, the way Megatron's eyes go wide and he has that manic look to his face, of someone who is juuuuust about to tip over the edge into total insanity yet remains in control. Absolute favourite version of Megs by a long shot.

Daran Norris doesn't get enough praise for his portrayal of Knock Out

Megatron's a asshole but at least he's a some what honest one

Man ratchet was ugly as hell Good VA tho

I like how here we see more of megatrons charismatic side

3:25 Love this. He's so blunt
