Fixit Jam

Russell and Grimlock try to find Fixit.

Synopsis

Russell asks Grimlock if he's seen Fixit, but Grimlock turns out to be looking for the Mini-Con too. Russell suggests he retrace his step, so Grimlock thinks back to his previous encounters with Fixit throughout the day, in the morning, at the talent show, and while playing soccer. Finally a noise from Grimlock's foot leads Russell to discover that Fixit has become lodged between Grimlock's toes. Russell tries to tug Fixit free, but only succeeds in tickling Grimlock, who switches to dino mode. At first they can't work out what happened to Fixit, but then they hear him banging on the inside of Grimlock's tail.

Notes

Continuity notes

• Drift was added as part of the main cast in "One of Our Mini-Cons Is Missing", giving us a very rough timeline for when in the main series this short takes place.

Transformers references

• It can be inferred in this short that Grimlock's foot forms (part of) his tail in dino mode, which hey, most Robots in Disguise Grimlock toys do. (As do various other Grimlocks' toys.)

Real-world references

• Fixit's drawn-out, high-pitched "Help me!" is probably a reference to The Fly.

Errors
