The Autobots decide to test their skills with a friendly race. Prime waves a checkered flag, and the Autobots head out, unaware that Soundwave has learned of their race and is plotting a way to defeat them (snickering to himself as he does so). Soundwave and Laserbeak wait until the Autobots enter a narrow canyon and ambush them. The rocky terrain keeps the Autobots from fighting back, and Wheeljack, Sideswipe and Jazz are taken out. Unfortunately for Soundwave, Hound is a Jeep and has no trouble driving over rocky terrain. Hound transforms to robot mode and drives his fist straight through Soundwave's glass chest window.
