    It sort of has been established that she couldn't care a less toxic air if she thought she had a chance to turn the tables.

    Of course, I was surprised to hear Jack say he was willing to sacrifice himself for Cybertron...didn't expect that.

    What do people usually do when being restrained against their will?

    What do people usually do when a loved one is in danger while being restrained by others to keep that person away from harm?

    Miko did what people do in such situations.

    sometimes it takes a stupid person, to do a brave thing.

    'Mama always said stupid is as stupid does.'

    XD
    Joking aside I guess she didn't think it would brake and was just stomping at it out of anger. I don't know.

    Courageous is when you get it right, stupid is when you fuck it up.

    Yeah, the main human character, with deep heroic traits, ready to make the ultimate sacrifice for the guys who saved his planet. Totally unexpected.

    The kids in this episode made me feel pretty okay about being human when most stories I enjoy make me feel like my species is scum. It was nice. I don't have a problem with humans being portrayed as bad folk - we make some pretty awful choices - but it's great to see some qualities that offset what negatives we can bring.

    Movieverse Optimus' line from TF1 comes to mind. Probably isn't a perfect quote of it. "Were we once so different? They are a young species and they have much to learn. But I have witnessed their capacity for courage..."

    You could call it a panic reaction, like how you laugh when you're tickled, or sometimes in great pain. She didn't like being so close to the Decepticons, and so she instinctively tried to get away. I can't imagine she expected to break out though.

    I'd never want to see a child dead.

    But this asinine cartoon character? I hope Bulkhead "accidentally" backs over her.

    Take your pick, but I didn't see it as Miko being a moron.

    well in season 1 they were going to kill off raf so it's safe to say the writer's do have it in them to kill off humans children. i'm guessing the censors thought otherwise though

    They should have (while Miko was in her container) placed it in a rocket and fired her off into deep space.

    (Miko is a cartoon character by the way.)

    I see her in the same way as I see Jar Jar Binks. Incredibly annoying and totally unnecessary.

    Wow, that was ... vulgar for you. Kinda sounds like it should have been apart of some epic rap battle.

    You win, my friend, you win.

    They can speak and hear through the glass, but did she start kicking the glass before or after they talked about the toxic atmosphere? If it was before, then, okay, not stupid at all. If it was after, what the HELL Miko. And I was starting to like you.
