I'm as out of the loop as you are. The only thing I know for sure is that this Megatron was the one that was here before. He's the Megatron from Waspinator's timeline.

Unfortunately that's all the information I can give you.

Thank you. That's more than I knew.

...

Are you well?

...

I suppose so.

I've spent my week of freedom rebuilding a laboratory for you, with the help of this suit of armor. I'll need some specific input from you on what else it may need to be stocked with and how to hook everything up properly. But hopefully we can make sure we've purged my systems of all of Starscream's secret bugs once it's up and running.

That's a great question, Thundercracker, but one I don't really know how to answer. All I know is my own operations - running the store, continuing to build weapons on the off-chance Starscream's little project doesn't work out. I do know that Soundwave is in the process of building a dance club - for what purpose, I have no idea, but since when do you need a reason to make money? Haha.

Far as allies go, considering the complete kerfuffle with Starscream, Soundwve and Shockwave all trying to slag each other, I'd say the only 'bot you can trust is yourself - but that's always been the Decepticon way, hasn't it.

... You are alarmingly like the Swindle I know. And the idea of Soundwave dancing seems almost disturbing. But I'm out of the loop on the extent of the... 'kerfluffle.'

What store are you running?

Soundwave basically slagged Starscream! Or at least that's what I heard.

As for my store, little joint called the Stop N' Spend. We're selling electronics now, if you want to check it out.

Soundwave did it? I thought Shockwave did!

Electronics - how good are you with engineering, Swindle? I might need your help in debugging something.

And I assume I'll be granted a Decepticon Discount.

AT THIS TIME I AM TAKING COMMAND OF THE DECEPTICONS DUE TO: STARSCREAM'S ABSENCE.
PLANS CURRENTLY IN MOTION: REORGANIZATION.
REPORTS OF YOUR STATUS: PREFERRED.

I WILL MAKE A LIST OF ALLIES FOR YOU.

MEGATRON: NOT OUR MEGATRON. HE IS FROM WASPINATOR'S TIMELINE. A PREDACON. DESCENDED FROM THE ORIGINAL DECEPTICONS. US.
HOW TO ADDRESS HIM: ...UNKNOWN AT THIS TIME.

[VOICE] crackofthunder June 16 2009, 21:31:51 UTC

If Megatron is nothing more than a spin-off, there is no reason to recognize him as a ranking officer.

What happened to Shockwave?

[VOICE] allshock_notalk June 16 2009, 21:34:04 UTC

AT THIS TIME I DO NOT RECOGNIZE THIS MEGATRON.
HE IS A MERE IMITATION.

SHOCKWAVE.
STATUS: FUNCTIONAL. WE ARE COOPERATING.

[VOICE] crackofthunder June 16 2009, 21:38:55 UTC

Then why is Shockwave not assuming command? Did you try to kill him?
