    I think what that guy was probably talking about, was Nemisis prime. From the sound of this episode, the Feds are pretty cheesed at fowler. They had a tough time believing OP was good when he was shooting people right in front of them. So I think as far as they are concerned, NP was OP. and NP is "dead." which fowler could obviously argue. But if they are at a point of shutting down the autobot operation as whole, I think they are far beyond listening to fowler. That's just my observation though, I could be wrong.

    Also just rewatched the episode, that TOTALLY IS the touch playing on the radio. BAD ASS :thumb

    Looks like we're going to get "Headmaster Silas".

    I don't know how to respond to that. But I do know that it's funny.

    I know! That just seems... wrong... to me.

    I would make the argument that "Loose Cannons" and "Crossfire" came close.

    Nah. Crossfire and Loose Cannons were good, but they weren't BW or Animated good.

    Watched the episode! I came. I saw. I FANGIRLSMED!

    Just... oh my God! That was an awsome episode! I was hoping Nemesis Prime would actually stick around and not be one of those Hi/Bye characters, but I was wrong. He was remote-controlled with no free will. Alas, poor guy. We hardly knew ye... nothing more than a clone. What a shame.

    But! The ending! OMG! I never thought that would happen. The only time it did was back in G1's episode known as 'Autobot Spike.' If what is happening is true... just... scary! Poor Breakdown being used as a puppet...

    Damn, definitely one of the best TFP episodes yet, and that ending! Wow! Looks like Breakdown's (or rather his body) not done yet!

    I wonder if Mech will be going after the Nemesis Prime body again. This ep certainly set up some interesting things for the future. Also, loved the Shattered Glass nod on Nemesis Prime, wonder if this will change the color standards by which Nemesis Primes are based on.

    The ending definitely saved that episode for me. For most of the episode I was slightly bored; just wasn't excited for Nemesis Prime. However, the episode in hindsight set up things to come BEAUTIFULLY. Very exciting to think about what the next few episodes might bring. I enjoy seeing things start to tie together and I'm gladly eating my words regarding PRIME being an episode of the week show.

    Now, just keep it up!

    I think at some point after he is possessed by Silas, Breakdowns consciousness will take over his body, thus erasing Silas's.

    Okay, so a natural Cybertronian who was picked to lead half a planet of his own race and given wisdom of generations of countless leaders before him with millions of years of combat experience can't take on his own cheap copy being controlled by a human with an ego and significantly less experience, wisdom, and knowledge. Okay.

    Despite capturing Breakdown twice, MECH somehow got the exact specs to make Optimus. Okay.

    I also feel horribly saddened by Breakdown's fate now.

    I guess last week's episode was just a fluke. This show is back to normal now.

    Capsule review: Last week, shit got real. This week, shit got realer.

    Yeah, the writers are very clearly building up to something, and MECH seems to be the focus this season, which I'm all for. Cons are great and all, but you gotta spice it up a little bit.

    My one real complaint with this episode? Miko. Pretty much everything she said was another "*sigh*, Miko...." moment. The one saving grace was that all the other characters kind of lampshaded it, making it actually kind of funny.

    A bit disappointed that Nemesis Prime was killed off. But Silas in Breakdown's body, that's sick!

    Probably won't happen, but I'd love it if they made Silas a ___Master for Breakdown rather than the more likely direct upload of his mind into the body.

    I certainly hope some how Breakdown is still in there and maybe we'll get some interesting battles in the mind.

    As I said before, can Nemesis really have been considered to be "killed off" when he wasn't alive to begin with? Plus, he looked pretty intact to me.

    Good point. That was my initial thought too. I really didn't think Nemesis was going to last long to begin with being a remote controlled car, but I'm sure we'll see him again if PRIME has a good string of seasons.

    At first, I thought MECH was going to transfer Silas's mind into Nemsis's body.
