Talk:Predatory

This episode only features three voice actors. Would this be some kind of record?82.15.246.2821:33, 16 April 2011 (EDT)

Does anyone else think a fair bit of this episode was a homage to the Proving Grounds episode of Beast Wars? It centred heavily on Black Arachnia stalking and being stalked by Dinobot through a similar forest setting.

I don't think Blackarachnia was in this episode. --ItsWalky01:23, 17 April 2011 (EDT)

While I don't think it's necessarily worth mentioning on the page (yet), I got a "Blackarachnia crossed with Maleficent" vibe off her design.--Apcog01:32, 17 April 2011 (EDT)

I'm not saying Black Arachnia was in this episode... Just that this was very similar to the episode featuring her from Beast Wars. --82.33.98.22111:26, 17 April 2011 (EDT)

Personally I question if people understand what a reference is. A similar situation is NOT a reference. For example, Jack hiding under a log is NOT a reference to Lord of the Rings. Also, the slow down fight in Darkness Rising Part IV is NOT a reference to Saving Private Ryan. A reference is an intentional nod towards previously existing stories. "The first rule of robot fight club is you don't talk about robot fight club" IS a reference.

Arcee and the "spider web" thingy

In this episode we see Arcee pinned on a rock wall by Airachnid's "spider web" at least twice.
The first time she succeeded to free an arm -thanks to her blade- and fire off a shot to her opponent. Why couldn't she do the same thing the second time?
Should this be mentioned in the section "trivia" as well?Sharky85714:55, 17 April 2011 (EDT)

If you look carefully, the first time Arcee gets stuck, the webbing is right in front of her arm, allowing her reach to cut. The second time she is stuck, it is her HAND that is trapped. There is in fact no webbing in front of her arm, meaning she had no way of actually cutting it.

Yeah, eventually I noticed that too. I watched again the episode the last night, and I could see that. Thanks for pointing it out anyway.Sharky85707:12, 19 April 2011 (EDT)

Jacks helmet

Jacks helmet just kinda… showing up might not be an animation error, per se. Given that she technically doesn't need gas, Arcees "gas tank" may instead be a storage compartment, much like the one on say, theAprilia Mana 850,which has enough room for a full face helmet. Of course, this is just pure, rampant speculation from a motorcycle junkie, but it might be worth mentioning.CelticNinja22:17, 17 April 2011 (EDT)

She has two helmets stashed in there somewhere. Sierra used one last episode. -Starfield22:24, 17 April 2011 (EDT)

They come from the same place that 80% of her body does when she transforms to robot mode. --abates22:32, 17 April 2011 (EDT)

what does Arcee say about the sniper at the artillery depot

I'm a Chinese fan of tf, and using on line resources have been following the new series. but the lines said by Arcee running in the ruined buildings were lost to me, I can't make them out. so i was wondering if i may get some help from here? i really appreciate if any one could help me out here. Thank you

Arcee: "Arcee to Delta Team, requesting coordinates, do you copy?"

Tailgate: "Arcee, you lost again? Your sense of direction could use some improvement."

Arcee: "So could your aim, Tailgate. If you'd tagged that sniper back at the artillery depot, I wouldn't have had to break rank and engage the enemy hand-to-hand."

Tailgate: "From the sound of things, I'm guessing you came out ahead?"

Arcee: "Try waiting up for me this time, and I'll give you the blow-by-blow. What's your position?"

Tailgate: "About half a click from the depot, due north. Think you can find it, partner?"

Arcee: "Trust me, Tailgate. My navigational abilities are--"

Deeply obliged. i owe you one zillion ^_^ Thank you __ from asker.

Also noteworthy is that this is the first episode not to feature any scenes inside the Autobot base. Could someone please add thisFlydie08:01, 27 October 2011 (EDT)

That's coincidence, not noteworthiness.192.249.47.19610:45, 27 October 2011 (EDT)

Still it seems like the type of thing we note here.Flydie13:44, 23 November 2011 (EST)

Flashbacks

This is the first of the many future flashbacks in which Cliffjumper reappears. Should that be added as trivia, and if so, could someone do that?XxxOUTBURSTxxx19:50, 14 March 2012 (EDT)

Arcee's blades

A minor thing, but is this the first appearence of Arcee's forearm blades? Normally I don't think that would be worth mentioning, but they are the only weapon her first toy comes with.LiamK15:38, 4 April 2012 (EDT)
