[It's not clear what caused the comm to turn on, since both Shockwave and Blitzwing are on the other side of the lab. Neither appear to notice it, absorbed as they are in inspecting the gun on Shockwave's left arm.]
"-- kind of ammunition."
"That is what this test will determine. Stand back."
[Blitzwing takes a step back, standing directly beside the raised gun. Shockwave aims at a target a fair distance away and fires.
[Except, what he fires isn't any sort of bullet. And Blitzwing happens to be standing just close enough to get a good whiff of the gas it does fire. The Triple Changer immediately sways, then collapses, smacking his head against the ground with a loud CRACK. Shockwave stares down in apparent incomprehension.]
"Oh slag.... Blitzwing?"
[When no response is forthcoming, Shockwave rushes -- yes, rushes -- off screen. A few moments later, he returns with a bucket, and proceeds to dump the contents on Blitzwing. The Triple Changer awakens with a sputter, slowly pushing himself up and staring at the scientist.]
"What...?"
"... It appears to fire some sort of gas."
"... Oh."
