Ep 17. Crisscross

In Transformers Prime season 1 episode 17, titled "Crisscross," the Decepticons hatch a plot to capture Autobots by using their human allies as bait.

The episode opens with Megatron devising a plan to capture the Autobots' human friends, in order to use them as leverage against the Autobots. He assigns the task to Knock Out and Breakdown, who are tasked with capturing three specific humans: Jack's mother, June, Agent Fowler, and Raf's father, Dr. Sumdac. Meanwhile, the Autobots are preoccupied with a different threat: a malfunctioning GroundBridge.

The Autobots are quickly alerted to the Decepticon plot when they receive a distress call from Agent Fowler, who narrowly escapes a Decepticon attack on his high-speed train. The Autobots quickly realize that they are all in danger and gather together to make a plan. They decide to split up, with Bulkhead and Bumblebee going after June, Arcee and Optimus Prime going after Agent Fowler, and Ratchet and Wheeljack going after Dr. Sumdac.

As the Autobots split up, the Decepticons are already making their move. June is captured by Breakdown and imprisoned on the Nemesis, and Dr. Sumdac is captured by Knock Out. Agent Fowler manages to evade the Decepticons, but is left stranded in the middle of a snowy wasteland.

The Autobots quickly realize that they need to regroup and work together to rescue their human friends. Optimus Prime leads the charge, directing the Autobots to their respective targets. Meanwhile, the Decepticons are feeling confident in their plan, but Megatron becomes increasingly frustrated with the incompetence of his minions.

The Autobots encounter various obstacles on their missions. Bumblebee and Bulkhead are forced to navigate a busy city street, trying to avoid drawing attention to themselves while chasing down Breakdown. Arcee and Optimus Prime must cross a treacherous ice bridge in order to reach Agent Fowler, who is quickly succumbing to the elements. And Ratchet and Wheeljack must battle their way through a Decepticon storage facility to reach Dr. Sumdac.

Despite facing incredible odds, the Autobots are eventually able to rescue their human allies. However, their victory is short-lived when they discover that the Decepticons have already put their plan into motion. Using June as bait, they lure the Autobots into a trap and unleash a powerful weapon that threatens to destroy them all.

As the episode comes to a close, the Autobots must once again work together to defeat the Decepticons and save themselves from certain doom. The fate of their human allies hangs in the balance, and they must use every ounce of their strength and skill to emerge victorious.
