Season 1 - Episode 13 - Aired 3/15/2008
Henry Masterson, creator of the Headmaster exo-suits, is fired by Isaac who states that Sumdac Systems doesn't make weapons of war even when it's exo-suit makes one of Isaac's robot models unstable. To take revenge on Isaac, Henry becomes Headmaster and plans his revenge by taking over Bulkhead's body. The Headmaster eventually succeeds in taking over Bulkhead's body, and fights the Autobots using it and weapons built into the Headmaster unit. He also causes the city's generator-core to overload, threatening to destroy the city. By the time the Autobots defeat Headmaster and knock the Headmaster unit off Bulkhead, the overload is at the point where the only way to stop it is to manually push the containment-grid back into position. However, nobody can survive the conditions inside the core, so it's essentially a suicide mission. At first, Optimus plans to do it himself, but Bulkhead has the idea of creating a new robot to do it. The Autobots create a patchwork robot in time, and Sari animates it with her key. The robot succeeds, and its melted, damaged, inanimate remains are put on display.

#19 - Survival of the Fittest
Season 1 - Episode 12 - Aired 3/8/2008
When Sari gets kidnapped by the Dinobots, Prowl and Bulkhead go to the island to find out what is going on. Captain Fanzone goes after them, suspicious of their reactions to this situation. It is on the island that, after teaming up, the trio encounter the Dinobots, who attack them. Prowl is naturally confused at this, until he discovers that they all have acid burns on their bodies. Worse, it is the work of Prometheus Black (AKA the acid-shooting Meltdown) who has forced the Dinobots to become his watchdogs, and wants to use Sari as part of his experiments to create a transforming human. His previous experiments having failed, Meltdown thinks that a still-growing human, as opposed to an adult, will have better results, and chooses Sari because he hates Sumdac. Bulkhead is injured by Meltdown and Prowl and Fanzone team up to fight Meltdown's mutant freaks (the mammal-like one was his lawyer). They take out Meltdown by wrapping him in a non-corrosive containment suit and, after the Dinobots take out Meltdown's mutants, return to the city, leaving the Dinobots on their island.

#20 - Blast From the Past
Season 1 - Episode 6 - Aired 1/12/2008
Megatron has just made himself known to Isaac Sumdac and tricks the inventor into thinking that he is an Autobot. He then helps him in reprogramming some robotic dinosaurs after Bulkhead accidentally destroys them at a robotic theme park. While Sumdac tries to rebuild them, Prowl teaches Bulkhead how to 'think and move'. Behind Isaac's back, Megatron upgrades these Dinobots Grimlock (a Tyrannosaurus), Snarl (a Triceratops) and Swoop (a Pteranodon) to become his new attack drones. But during their 'rampage', both Ratchet and Bumblebee try to use an electromagnetic attack to disable them. However, Sari's key gets pulled into the mix, which gives the Dinobots a small semblance of 'a spark'. Megatron tricks' them into attacking the Autobots, which forces the Cybertronian heroes to battle them. It is during this fight that Bulkhead proves to be exactly what the Autobots need to stop the Dinobots, his muscle more than a match for the Dinobots muscle. Sumdac thinks it would be better to dismantle the Dinobots, and Prime agrees, but Prowl, who senses a life force inside them, and Bulkhead take the Dinobots to an island in the middle of Lake Erie where they can exist peacefully.

#21 - Nanosec
Season 1 - Episode 8 - Aired 2/9/2008
To obtain Destronium to help rebuild his body, Megatron bails a fleet-footed thief named Nino Sexton out of jail and gives him Isaac Sumdac's experimental super-speed suit to obtain the Destronium for him. Since the Destronium is highly unstable it needs to be transported quickly from the research lab to Megatron directly. Megatron uses Sumdac's private bank account to make Sexton do the job. Having arrested Nino Sexton before, the Autobots are shocked to learn that he now has super speed powers, which makes Bumblebee upset that Nanosec, Sexton's new name, is faster than him. Even with a pair of experimental rocket boosters created by Sumdac, Bumblebee is unable to truly catch Nanosec. However, the Autobots make two startling discoveries: 1-Nanosec's new speed suit is making him age rapidly, and 2-their constant movements are destabilizing the Destronium which will cause it to explode and take out half of Detroit. The Autobots use their combined talents (Bulkhead's battering arm, Prowl's jump boosters and Bumlebee's rocket boosters) to launch Bumblebee into the upper atmosphere where he hurls the Destronium away before it explodes.
