When Bulkhead pointed out that Megatron would be unable to land his troops on Cybertron without access codes to the other side, Bumblebee initially believed that this meant the escaped Wasp had now landed on Cybertron and was ready to do just that. His desire for revenge had not faded, however, and he vowed to make good on his promise: find Bumblebee (or "Bumblebot" as he now called him) and make him pay for ruining his life.Īlthough Wasp did not appear in this episode, his reference left a huge impact on Bumblebee. Noticeably left mentally unstable and unhinged from his imprisonment, Wasp talks in third-person and his eyes have turned purple. In truth, Wasp had hidden underneath the bridge until Sentinel left. Many years later, Wasp escaped the Autobots' custody and seemingly eluded Sentinel Prime by jumping through a space warp. Finally realising that his pleas were falling on deaf ears (or servos in this case), the enraged bot vowed revenge on Bumblebee before being wheeled away by Cliffjumper. All the while the former cadet fiercely protested his innocence. Wasp was immediately detained, with Sentinel Minor personally stripping him of his Autobot insignia. After a bit of careful planning, the two manage to discover a Decepticon communicator within Wasp's locker, which Bumblebee immediately presented to Sentinel Minor. Bumblebee unable to make any headway on his own, eventually turned to Longarm in order to get assistance in exposing Wasp. Seeing Wasp exit the hanger soon afterwards, Bumblebee suspected that he was the traitor. Even so, the group's drill sergeant, Sentinel Minor, took a liking to Wasp, whom he dubbed as such for his accuracy with his stingers, while he gave Bumblebee his title for "bumbling" while trying to compete with Wasp.Įventually, Bumblebee came across one of the cadets in a hanger secretly communicating with Megatron, as they had been sent to infiltrate the Autobots. Right away, he took an immediate disliking to Bumblebee and would continue to bully and harass him and Bulkhead alongside Ironhide. Wasp served as a cadet in the same group as Bumblebee, Bulkhead, Longarm, and Ironhide (the latter of whom he would develop a strong friendship with).
