    "Megatron may be known to raise zombies, but he's no ghoul."

    You are asking AUTOBOTS to do the only thing so fucked up not even Megatron would do it. Just think about that.

    With the implication that Megatron would just be doing it for fun. If it allows Bumblebee to transform again and be more useful, I don't see why not.

    Maybe this s the implication of bee running wrecklessly into mech after all the synopsis was for bee to feel bad after failing the team, Ratchet seemed really pissed in the promo for ep 2,
    "What!? Bumblebee can't do that!"
    Seems to imply ratchet and the crew will follow bee.

    That's not at all what it's implying. It's making it clear that it's such a horrible, ghoulish thing to do that not even Megatron would do it. Which is why the Autobots won't. Your suggestion is analogous to a human soldier shooting an enemy combatant, then splitting open his torso, removing his liver and bringing it back home for medical purposes. Grotesque. You need to stop looking at this situation as "parts being swapped between machines" and "organs being swapped between living beings", because that's how the Autobots themselves are looking at it and that is at the centre of the morality of the idea. And that's what's making it great.

    I agree with your sentiment.

    I hesitate to speculate since any number of things could be happening in that picture.

    - Ratchet went after Bee and got hurt rescuing him.
    - Ratchet donating his T-cog
    - Ratchet donating his voice box (PLEASE NO!)
    - Corneal psychic patch

    There's also the possibility that whatever procedure is going on gets interrupted somehow.

    "Why would the Decepticons steal that? They can transform too."
    "Megatron has been known to raise zombies, but he's no ghoul."

    Thus I interpreted it more as "Megatron wouldn't do something as strange as stealing parts from transformers with no purpose" rather than "not even the evil Megatron would do something that bad."

    And in all honesty, if I was an Autobot apart of a team with 5 troops, facing a countless number of Decepticons and had to protect the planet, I would have no problem stealing a cog from an already dead Vehicon; despite it being similar to humans stealing organs. And when I was watching the episode, I didn't even get that vibe. It felt more like someone stealing my special glasses and I wouldn't be able to see as well without them. Maybe my moral values are different from everyone else or something, but I don't see the issue.

    ^ I don't think a partial T-cog would work, though. :/

    With Raf standing next to Bumblebee, I'm thinking he either believes it might be Bumblebee's end, or waiting for his recovery (through sacrifice).

    It would be pretty hilarious to have 'Bee tooling around with Jeffery Combs' voice coming out of him, if only for an episode. :)

    Looking at the picture I wonder of Ratchet would be the main character who'll die? I may be wrong but I doubt Bumblebee will be killed off due to him being Hasbro flagship character.

    Brainswapping? In my TF Prime show? More likely than I thought!

    But if it's a T-cog transplant, I can just imagine Jeffrey Combs's voice now.

    "Remember, Bumblebee, this is only temporary because.... I NEEDED THAT!!!"

    Sorry if this is an old pic, but I hadn't seen it before so I thought I'd put it here since it's in an article about pt. 2.

    There's also a good picture a pissed Ratchet in that article.
