Cowed, they agree. Meanwhile, on Earth, Landmine is feeling useless, as he's still recovering from his injuries at the hands of Starscream. (As seen in "Fallen".) Optimus reassures him he'll be back at 100% soon, and the kids come by to cheer him up. Optimus meets with the rest of the Autobots to decide on a plan of action. They agree that more info on the Atlantis Pattern and the Omega Lock is needed. Vector Prime says he'll analyze the Pattern, while the rest go forth to gather intel. Lori and Bud go too, with Jetfire and Jolt, respectively. Optimus goes looking for Hot Shot, and finds him goofing off at a local race track. He reprimands him for being reckless when discretion is needed. Hot Shot swears it won't happen again. Back at the base, Coby is giving Landmine a checkup. He tells him he's not completely healed yet, but Landmine is eager to help look for info. Bud agrees to go out with him, so long as he picks an Earth vehicle mode, first. They head out to a construction site, and Landmine chooses a front loader. Meanwhile, Bud has been surfing the net from within Jolt, and has located a copy of the Atlantis Pattern at a museum in Mexico. Jolt passes the news to Optimus, who orders the whole team to the museum. Starscream and Thundercracker spot them en route, and follow. At the museum, the guard is fast asleep. The Autobots are about to enter, when the two Decepticons show up. Thundercracker shows off his new Cyber Key, blasting Jetfire. The two nemeses take off to duel in the skies. The Recon Mini-Con Team take the kids aside to safety, as Optimus confronts Starscream. Vector Prime heads inside to check out the Pattern, protected by Hot Shot and Scattorshot. Prime and 'Scream exchange some bon mots, then Landmine charges in, determined to get a piece of the Decepticon. Prime orders him to stand back, as he's not ready for combat. Landmine hesitates, and Starscream takes the opportunity to shoot at him. Optimus shields Landmine, and is injured. Landmine fights with Starscream briefly, but the Decepticon knocks him down, and flies toward the museum to take out Vector Prime. Scattorshot and Hot Shot hold him off. One of Thundercracker's shots goes wide, and heads toward the kids and Mini-Cons. Landmine leaps to defend them, summons his Cyber Key, and invokes his Cyber Tempest to detonate the incoming fire, proving that he's ready for action again. At this point, Vector Prime emerges and declares that the object inside is not the Omega Lock, but rather an imitation. With Red Alert and Overhaul just arriving to reinforce the Autobots, Starscream calls for a retreat. Back at base, Landmine and Coby share a moment. Then Vector Prime informs the Autobots that, while the object at the base was an imitation, it did contain a star map giving the location of the Speed Planet, Velocitron, where one of the Cyber Planet Keys is located. Optimus dispatches Hot Shot and Red Alert to Velocitron, with orders to be discreet and make no contact with the locals. Vector Prime's dimension gate and the power of Optimus's Matrix see them on their way. Arriving on Velocitron, Hot Shot is agog over the endless speedways . . . and aghast when he's passed by Override, who seems to be even faster than him.
