    First, he would have probably bought Bumblespud from Bobby Bolivia's Roadside Stand. Bumblebee would have snuck into the pile.

    Sam would then be whining at his dad about how he's buying him a potato rather than a car. And he'd give it to is mom that evening.

    Who would gut the potato Bumblebee, turning him into delicious potato salad.

    A few days later, Barricade would come after Sam. He'd be attacked - but suddenly, improbably - he'd manage to avoid Barricade's moves without even trying!

    See, Bumblespud now coursed within Sam's body, within Sam's veins - he was a much a part of Sam as Sam was a part of him. And the Sam/Bumblespud hybrid easily avoided Barricade and did a brutal "finishing move" whereby he impaled Barricade's face into some kind of pole (as since Bumblespud was part of Sam, Sam also had been gifted with super strength/reflexes worthy of an Autobot)

    He would then become a soldier, and when Simmons showed up to capture him, he would, instead of being captured, beat the crap out of the S7 guys and get away.

    Getting away, he would meet up with Prime and co, and they would then raid Sector 7's HQ to recover the Allspark. The Decepticons would also engage, leading to a brawl at Hoover Dam instead of Mission City. However, Prime's whole "protect life" motto would result in his death, as he would sacrifice himself to keep the dam from bursting and killing the untold millions in the city.

    However, Bumblespike (as the Bumblespud/Sam hybrid was now known) would absorb the Cube into himself, and with the boost in power generate himself a new exoframe (much like issue 80 of Marvel US, where an exoframe is built up around Hi-Q) and he would regenerate into a full-sized Autobot, beating the crap out of Megatron, Starscream, and the others. Using his powers, he would regenerate Optimus Prime, as the living Avatar of the Allspark, and along with the Autobots, return to Cybertron where he would restore the planet to what it once was.

    As a result of this, ROTF's events don't actually happen, and I can't really go into what would happen from here because the status quo is too different (and there's no Shards to revive Megatron, or a need for the Harvester, or any of that stuff). You might get a war on Cybertron where the Autobots revive their comrades ala Marvel US #80, and expel the 'cons though.

    And come to think, ROTF would change up as Starscream, beaten, would exploit the human-half of Bumblespark (the Allspark/Sam/Bumblespud hybrid) and decide to capture his parents to use as leverage and destroy his world.

    Except for one problem - Mojo also ate some of the potato salad. Powered up, Mojo would then beat the living tar out of Starscream thanks to his mobility/urine gun.

    Sam went to the supermarket with hopes of winning Mikaela over with some homemade potato chips. Unforutunately for him one of the potatoes he picked was Bumblespud, it was so cute he couldn't cut it up so he kept it as a pet. However Bumblespud was a cannibal and ate the rest of the potatoes so Sam couldn't make Mikaela her chips. Sam eventually forgae Bumblespud & took him to Vegas where they made millions as an attraction.

    First movie; Bumblebee would never have lost his legs, so he would help sam with the cube, it would be safe, and megatron would have been killed by the autobots.

    Second Movie; Bumblebee would have gotten eaten by the kitchen bots, The fallen would have taken the allspark and turned into Zurg, and Optimus would become Buzz Lightyear with the matrix.

    First movie: After miraculously defeating Barricade he starts walking toward Sam and Mikaela. Sam- "It's a potato...but like a super advanced potato...probably from Idaho...yeah definatly Idaho."

    Second movie... Kitchen bots begin their assault on Sam. Sam screams "BUMBLESPUD!" Seeing Bumblespud on the shelf he grabs him and says "Kill em Spud! KILL EM!" Sam then throws Bumblespud at the kitchen bots and he goes right into the blenderbot... Bumblespud has now become Mashedbee, as the blenderbot spits him out on the ground. One of the kitchen bots slips on Mashedbee, falls and causes one of his missles to go and hit the other kitchen bots, causing a chain reaction of missiles to go off and kill all bots but Ejector. Ejector with nunchucks in hand stands there for a moment, staring at Sam, followed by a stare at the dead kitchen bots around him. He sees Mashedbee on the ground, eats him up, and goes apesh*t with his nunchucks on Sam... What? You thought I would have Ejector die too?

    Bumblespud would lead a somewhat similar existence bringing his fellow and healthy Veggiebots to Earth to befriend Sam. They would protect him against the quirkly, somewhat villainous, and sometimes fashionable Fruiticons. Bumblespud along with Tomatimus Prime (Optimash Prime was slain by Mellontron) & Cabbagehide, would (in exchange for not being eaten) form an Alliance with the humans known as the A.F.B. (Anti-Fruit Brigade). Sam would quietly leave this scenario as quarrelling food groups didn't help him get a girl, a car, or a good collegiate future.

    Sam would have met Bumblespud and though thinking he was way cool, said "man, I love me some taters." Then cooked and ate him. Not having a cool car to give Miakaela a ride in, Sam never gets the girl and later is killed by Barricade. The Decepticons succeed in capturing the Allspark but Starscream stops them short of reviving Megatron. Finally in charge of the Decepticons and possesing the Allspark, Starscream declares himself emperor of the universe.

    Sam gets a potatoe from his mom as a gift. Sam throws out potatoe.

    Potatoe transforms into Bumblespud and beats the crap out of Sam.

    Sam is now scared of potatoes.


    The - End.

    How it revolves around the Allspark and the other Autobots I don't know.

    Sam got Potatoes from a road side stand and took then home to peel for dinner and when he got to the last one it transformed!

    Where upon seeing this Sam exclaimed a transforming tater!! to which Bumble spud replied "Whats taters precious?" and to which Sam replied " PO-TAT-OES bake em, boil em stick them in a stew! then they looked at each other and realized the talent they had and joined a traveling acting company doing a play of Lord of the Rings , with Sam playing Samwise and Bumblespud playing Gollum.

    To make this super short, let's just say Sam would have died waaaaay before ROTF could take place..

    Not only that, but he wouldn't be able to talk to him at all (cause BumbleSpud can't transform so he doesn't have a radio).

    Sam's interaction with Bumblespud?

    None.

    Do you all really think Ron Witwicky would've paid four thousand dollars for a potato?

    My entry:

    Sam needed one A and $3.00 to show his dad. Once he got the A and the $3.00, he showed his dad, who took him to Hannaford to buy a potato.

    Sam took good care of the potato. He kicked Mojo out of the house, and gave it all his stuff. He kept it for a few days, until his dad came in and wanted to talk with Sam.

    "That potato is getting rotten." the dad said. Sam started to tear up. He knew the potato was past his prime. "I can't get rid of it! He's my *sniff* best pal..."
    Sam started to cry. His father told him that it would be okay. "Sam, if you don't want to see it thrown out, I think it should be eaten.

    Sam replied. "*sniff* Okay..." He went downstairs to microwave the potato. He prepared some BBQ sauce and funyuns to go with it. As he put the potato in the microwave, he started to cry. He closed the door, and turned the microwave on high for 3 minutes.

    About 15 seconds in, the microwave exploded. Sam was in shock, as his dad came running down the stairs.

    "What happened!" shouted Sam's dad. Sam replied, "The potato! It's alive!" Sam and his dad were shocked at the site of the potato. But the potato wasn't the same. It had a head, legs, and two arms. One arm had a cannon, which he used to destroy the microwave before it would destroy him.

    "My name is Bumblespud. I'm a super advanced robot from the planet cybertro..." As Bumblespud was about to finish, Sam's dad grabbed him, and threw him at the wall. Bumblespud fell to the floor, in pain.
    "Sam, get the shovel!" shouted Sam's dad. He continued, "Do you have any idea how much that microwave cost! Do you!" Bumblespud shot the human father in his right shin. He fell to the floor, screaming in pain. "Sam! Kill it!" the father shouted, as Bumblespud got up and started running. Sam came back with the shovel, but told his father that he could not kill his best friend, despite shooting his dad in the shin. Sam's father replied, "If you don't kill it, you will be grounded for life! For life!" Sam had an emotional breakdown, and started to bludgeon his father until he was nothing but mush.

    Sam then chased after Bumblespud all the way to Hoover Dam, to tell him that he wanted to help him. Bumblespud told Sam to hide a mysterious cube somewhere in the city. "There are giant robots that want to use the cube for world domination. They will stop at nothing to get it. They can sense it's energy signal, but I can't. If you hide it in the city, then no one will get hurt.

    Sam saw the genius in Bumblespud's plan. "Great idea! After all, who lives in a city!" Sam got in a car that he conveniently knew how to hot wire and drive.

    Bumblespud was being chased after by a bunch of military guys from a place called sector 70. He was chased all the way to the city, where he met up with Sam.

    "Is the cube hidden?" Asked Bumblespud. Sam replied, "Yes! I hid it where no one would find it! In a fruit stand! After all, no one ever crashes into a fruit stand, causing it's contents to fly out into the sky where most of the general public would see them!"

    Bumblespud was suddenly pissed. Sam had just told the location of the cube to all of the Sector 70 troops.

    "Men! Search every fruit stand in this city!" Shouted the general. "Kill any fruit stand owner who doesn't let you search! If the decepticons find it, all hop..." The general was shot in the back of the head by a tank that was completely unnoticed until then. Suddenly after that, a jet, helicopter, and some weird alien plane thing showed up, and started slaughtering all the troops, but not Sam or Bumblespud. No innocent people were hurt, of course. "That jet thing would make for a pretty lame $40 toy." Said Sam.

    The four vehicles went towards Sam and Bumblespud, and transformed into giant robots. "I am Megatron." said the alien jet thing. "You have something that belongs to me. Megatron grabbed Sam by the foot, and removed the cube from Sam's pocket.

    Bumblespud just noticed that Sam lied to fool the Sector 70 troops. He realized Sam's bravery, courage, and other things no one particularly cared about. However, none of that mattered now.

    As a last ditch effort, Bumblespud sacrificed himself. By shooting himself, potato went flying conveniently at the four robot's heads.

    "Mashed Potatoes!" shouted Megatron, as he screamed in pain. The unbelievably bland taste of the potatoes was torture to the four robots. They started to gag, and vomit their robotic organs. The taste was unbearable to say the least. Sam fell to the ground, but landed on some of the mashed potato. It was enough to protect him.

    Megatron and his minions fell to the ground, gagging. They died from the awful, hellish mashed potatoes.

    Sam started to cry from the death of his best friend. He made a vow to protect the cube for the rest of his life.

    It's a year, give or take a year later. Sam just got out of college, and drove home. He noticed Micheal Bay at the front door. "I hope he didn't notice the mush." Sam said to himself. "Hello. I was at the scene of the giant battle that occurred a few years ago." Said Micheal Bay. I'd like to talk to you about making a sequel. (Screen fades to black)

    Rotf:

    After Sam's confusion with Micheal Bay showing up and telling him it's all a movie, he came to an agreement to make a movie, based on events that could have happened after the giant battle. He showed up at the office, but heard Micheal Bay plotting against him. "Then, there's going to be this giant multicolored dude who shows up and destroys everything! Ravage attacks Sam, and gets the Allspark from him and ta..." Sam took out the cube, and smashed it at the back of Micheal Bay's head. "You were working with them! Plotting behind my back!" Sam then proceeded to kill everyone in the office. But then, Bob Orci who appeared out of no where told him that it was only a movie.

    Sam suddenly remembered that it was all fake, and that the Allspark was a prop. He was taken away by the police, and is kept in solitary confinement to this day.

    The end.

    You see Sam arguing with his dad after his dad teased him with the driving by the new car dealership. As they argue, they walk into a supermarket because his dad loves Guayavas. theyre shopping around as you see a little robot potato following them through the aisles. As they are about to check out, Bumble spud kicks out some of the foods and jumps in the cart.

    The Barricade fight would involve bumble spud fighting an Eggplant that spits out a green bean. The green bean tries to get Sam only to be split in 2 by Mikaela.

    sorely disappointed at having been bought a potato instead of a car, sam decides to drown his sorrows by dowsing the potato with some melted butter in the hopes of a decent meal. this causes bumblespud to transform which prompts sam to exclaim, "whoa... no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no! you're not just a potato, you're like some kind of 'gold spud'! why you're, you're GoldSpud!"

    thus bumblespud earned his new name and found a place in the witwicky home.

    So I say it really went down this way! See Bumblespud slipped into the house in this ingenius disguise. Sam discovers him when Bumblespud tries to sneak out to guide the landing! Sam rides with Jazz the remainder of the movie. During the final battle Sam rides the tow truck, his foot on the hook holding the chain as he uses his trusty potatoe launcher to shoot bumblespud into the chest of his decepticon attackers!

    The second movie opens to Bumblespud and Arceespud speeding along in Sideswipe, Arceespud complaining about how stupid a disguise this is. As Sideswipe transforms to attack Sideways the spuds get thrown to the ground where Arceespud loses her mouth so she slaps on Megatron eyes (AKA the new Mr Potato commercial) the entry sequence fades out to Bumblespud winking as he climbs into Sam's potato launcher! A recurring theme of ROTF is Arceespud endlessly harassing Bumblespud about the disguise choice! As Mikela and Sam come together at the end the Megatron eyes are finally changed to tearful eyes as Ratchet is overheard saying that judging from the number of eyes he is seeing Arceespud appears to be ready for fertilizing!

    With Bumblespud as his inspiration, Sam turned out to have some skill in the culinary arts. He becomes the new Iron Chef and with his skills, becomes a media sensation and wins Mikaela's heart.
    Of course, Megatron ends up conquering and subjugating the entire world and the sequel will see Sam destroying Megs with matrix of leadership.
