By far the longest of the three seasons with 49 episodes, season two is full of new and exciting inventions as well as a whole host of new Cons and Bots. Insecticons , Constucticons, Stunticons, and Combaticons were added to the mix of Decepticons.
The Autobots introduced, Dinobots, Morphobots, Arialbots, and of course Protectobots.
The first episode of season two shows Sparkplug developing a machine that is supposed to hold on to the memory of the Autobots while they are being worked on mechanically. This sounds like a good idea at first, but as always the Decepticons have to go and ruin everything.
The next invention comes from Wheejack, who has developed a way to immobilize virtually everything! Quite useful, until Megatron finds a way to use it against the Autobots.
Other early episodes focus on the Dinobots. As usual the Decepticons are hungry for the rich natural resources on the Dinobot Island, they try to tap into the energy of the island. Thankfully, another nefarious plot is foiled by the good guys.
The next ten episodes go by in a flash until before mid season when Megatron takes control of the flow of oil by seizing control of the Torq 3 computer. The next two episodes titled “Megatrons Master Plan” lead into the first highlight of the season when the Decepticons attempt to take over New York City and destroying Optimus Prime as well! In the end the Autobots have to save both without the help of their fearless leader.
Immediately following that, another two part episode 19 & 20 “The Desertion of the Dinobots” With cybertonium in short supply both sides are having a tough time especially the Autobots who have to rely on the Dinobots for their share of the rare element. The Dinobots have a few gripes of their own and quickly turn on the Autobots leaving them without recourse.
Episodes 21 through 30 reach out to the audience in different ways, giving them more character building and different scenarios to explore. Around the 32nd & 35th episode female transformers were developed the story line set on working them in they wrote the kidnapping of the leader of the female Autobots, Elita1 and used her to set a trap for Optimus Prime. Elita uses her special time alteration powers, but is left near death and needs to go to Alpha Trion in order to be saved.
Both Powerglide and Seaspray have love interests in this season. First the Decepticons go after the teenage daughter of a man who has a secret invention. Powerglide rescues her and finds she has fallen in love with him. Then later Seaspray falls for a rebel from another world which doesn’t end well either.
Another two part Episode 30 & 40 deals with the Decepticons getting the powerful key to Vector Sigma, only to find the key can be used to turn organics into machines. The impact of this power if used against the Earth would be devastating. Fortunately, the Autobots create a surprising new ally that saves the day.
The last nine episodes are loaded with excitement and history, read on as we wrap up season two, and move on to the third and fourth season.
