Transformers Robots in Disguise (2015)

Trust Exercises

Amara: Someone's been here recently. This chain snapped clean. From the skid marks, it looks like the truck was yanked around by something big.

Amara went back into Sideswipe as the two of them continued their search for Strongarm. But then Sideswipe complains that Strongarm will still treat him like scrap so Amara tells him about what her dad had told her that one of you has to give respect and take the first step.

Sideswipe: Won't matter if we find Strongarm. She'll still treat me like scrap.

Amara: My dad always says, you wanna get respect, you have to give respect. One of you just has to take the first step, that's all.

And then that was when Amara and Sideswipe heard voices, they followed the voices and saw Strongarm tied up with chains talking to a Decepticon that resembles an Earth wolf. And that Decepticon that resembles an Earth wolf was Steeljaw a very dangerous Decepticon. He tries smooth talk into her with his charms, trying to convince her that he's changed. When Amara first saw Strongarm she was about to run up to her and save her but Sideswipe grabbed her before she could do anything.

Amara:(whispers)Sideswipe we have to save her.

Sideswipe:(whispers) Not with that Decepticon wolf. And besides I don't trust him. He's too cool. (Muttered) Kinda reminds me of someone.

Amara: (whispers) So, what what do we do now?

Sideswipe: (whispers) If I was half the criminal Strongarm thinks I am, I'd just walk away.

Amara:(gasps)

That was when Amara came up with an idea. And starts running back to the old ranger station with Sideswipe following her.

Sideswipe:(whispers) What are you doing?

Amara:(whispers) Making you a criminal. Come on!

When they finally made it back to the old ranger station Amara painted a Decepticon symbol on Sideswipe's chest just so Steeljaw will think Sideswipe is a Decepticon. Sideswipe asked her what her plan was and she told him her plan is that he acts like a Decepticon to distract Steeljaw and she said that once Steeljaw is distracted and she will sneak past him and free Strongarm while he's not paying attention. But then Sideswipe was worried that she would be caught by Steeljaw, but she assured him that if she was ever caught she would run and find somewhere safe to hide. That's why I thought for a moment and decided to give it a try. And then they finally went back to where they found Strongarm and Steeljaw and were ready to set the plan in motion.

Sideswipe: Are you sure, this plan will work?

Amara: Don't worry Sideswipe, we got this.

Sideswipe nodded his head and started setting the plan in motion.

Sideswipe: I see you found an Autobot. Can I get in on a little payback?

Steeljaw looked at Sideswipe and then saw the painted Decepticon symbol and thought that he was a Decepticon.

Steeljaw: Greetings, brother. I'm Steeljaw. And you are...?

Sideswipe: Oh, I'm-- Ahem, I'm Grimbee.

Steeljaw: I am glad you are free, Grimbee. Step into the light and join me.

Sideswipe: What, uh-- What happened to your mark there, uh, Steeljaw? Ahem. Brother?

Steeljaw: I destroyed it and its tracking mechanism. The Autobots mustn't capture me before I can prove to them but I have reformed and want to live here now, peacefully. As I'm sure you do too.
