Sabotage

Episode Summary & Review

Summary

Shockwave traps Bumblebee in a false memory designed to convince him he’s a Decepticon.

Our Take

This one’s a solid mid-season bottle episode that leans on Bumblebee being stuck inside his own head, so your enjoyment depends on how much you like watching one character wrestle with doubt. The mind-game premise keeps things tense and the animation does decent work selling the confusion. It’s a quick, watchable eleven minutes that doesn’t waste your time, even if it won’t stick with you.
