Hello and welcome to the Afterspark Podcast, an episode
by episode recap of the Generation One Transformers
cartoon. I'm Alice.
And I'm Specs. And today we are going to be
talking about episode 72 titled.Chaos.
And today we're going to be talking about Episode #72,
Chaos. Let's talk about giant robots
(00:35):
today, shall we? Well, we're going to talk about
giant robots, talking about other giant robots and other
things even. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, we've some,
you know wrote talking about giant robot Inception.
We open with blast off, going toe to toe with a Skuxoid or one
of those lizardy pig aliens we've seen before, blast off,
chasing him down and stealing his crystal gun.
(00:57):
Cybertron Cup is regaling Blur wheelie and Grimlock with war
stories, now including a flashback with a giant alien
lizard. Oh goody.
In the flashback he's able to beat the giant alien lizard by
getting him stuck in I swamp. It is unfortunately taken
prisoner by a race of aliens called orbs.
They are not spherical in any way, shape or form.
(01:19):
I don't know why they're called this.
Someone was scraping the bottom of the barrel this week.
I even like went to the wiki andwas like, did I hear them right?
Because I wanted to make sure I was like, for all I know, maybe
they're called gourds or something and I'm not hearing
the G, but no. Yeah, I mean, it's easy to miss,
like letters and pronunciation especially.
(01:42):
It's like alien, alien things. I'm like, Oh yes, I'm very I
remain eternally grateful to theDF Wiki, so I could look shit
like that up. The TF wiki is wonderful and
benevolent. We very much enjoy it.
Back in the present, Grimlock asks Cup about a Chaos monster.
Cup is not thrilled about this question, seeming to have some
(02:03):
baggage involved. Even when Grimlock says,
Grimlock says please. Very polite for him.
Grimlock. It is a call from Retgar.
Interrupts story time and the group heads off towards Goo
aboard Skylinks. Apparently the goo on goo.
Can just be turned off some sortof convenient control valve
(02:23):
which blur does so they don't get stuck inside GO.
Why? Because presumably it's a
functional weird garbage facility, so it would need some
kind of valve I guess. I don't know.
God, yeah. They arrive at Rec Cars location
(02:43):
which shows them a down to earthdefense ship Cup pulls out a
little device and scans the shipsaying the damage was caused by
death crystals. Apparently the little device is
like an intergalactic Geiger counter.
Apparently CUP takes the news well, the baggage from earlier
briefly rearing its ugly head until they are attacked by
Decepticons. As Decepticons do.
(03:06):
Sad Decepticon being run amuck riding a stride blast off using
the fancy death crystal gun. A firefight ensues before we cut
to commercial. You know, a gun that just shoots
out a shatter, a bunch of shattered crystals Doesn't seem
terribly unique. It's basically a space shotgun,
but with death crystals. Maybe the death crystals are the
important aspect here, I guess. Well, that would be my
(03:28):
assumption, but I mean, they're just funky rock.
And yes, I was making claw handsat this.
And you know, Transformers doesn't have the excuse.
Every high fantasy thing does, which is the crystals are magic.
The fucking radioactive death crystals.
I don't know. Skylinks deems it necessary to
(03:49):
transform into his quadruped mode and dashingly dives in to
collect his passengers, making an escape into an asteroid
field. Run.
Amuck continues to fire on the the guy links transforms back
into a shuttle around the OtterBox.
Well, that must take some finesse.
Well, he's a very finesse guy. Cup finds an embedded death
(04:10):
crystal and finally gives us thestory about his baggage.
Revealing the origins of Death Crystals.
Evidently these things grow on Chaos, who is a alien from the
planet Dread. Very friendly names here guys.
So ominous. So they just.
They encourage you to visit, Yes, Yes.
(04:32):
I I would like to apply to work for the Dread Tourism Board,
please. Like, surely we can invite
people to the planet dread. All they need is some good
publicity or that planet from the earlier story where Cup was
fighting the lizard thing. After he was captured by the
orbs, he was taken to the death crystal mines, where he worked
(04:56):
alongside many other enslaved robots.
The mine is attacked by Chaos who is a glowing grain crystal
bear thing and may live in them caves come to dread see the
wildlife. Oh my.
God get horribly mauled. Take home sparkly crystals that
(05:19):
mean death cup flees from chaos,lamenting that he was unable to
free the other robots still trapped in the mine.
And revealing that he deeply needs a therapist after this
chaos incident. But being Autobots?
Or maybe it's a cyber attorney and think, obviously he's not
had access to a therapist for the past several million years.
(05:41):
I don't think their insurance covers it well.
They are in the US. God on the planet Dread.
We see that the Decepticons are now gathering a bunch of Death
Crystals together, apparently todestroy Cybertron.
Good times all around, I guess. Come to dread.
World destroying crystals takes them home to the fam.
(06:06):
God yeah, the excellent, excellent Ketchy trinkets.
Use it as a paperweight. The Dysepticons apparently
haven't have taken over the whole ORBS mining operation
thing because I don't think we see any.
Orbs they probably went off to, I don't know.
(06:26):
They definitely went somewhere nice and weren't killed by
Galvatron at all. They're all taking a nap
somewhere. Yup, Yup.
A very, very long, permanent nap.
When some slaves try to escape, Galvatron sends Preda King after
them. The Autobot group then arrives.
On Dread, Grimlock, Wheelie and Recgar stay aboard Sky Links to
hold down the Fort, while Cup and Blur head out onto the
(06:49):
planet, where they are, of course promptly attacked by the
Predacons. Blur is not having a good day,
but it gets significantly worse when he's pushed into Click Mud,
which we sort of saw at the beginning of this episode but
didn't detail, And then he starts sinking the other four or
five Autobots, having gotten tired of waiting, jump into the
(07:09):
fray. Skylink splits into two
components, so I'm not really sure.
Does he count on one or two botsnow?
I think he's sort of like Reflector where it's three
bodies and technically one person.
Yeah, I am so mad that we don't explore that as a concept more
in Transformers Media, cuz it's kind of fascinating.
Like, do you have your own distinct, like, personalities
(07:32):
between your components? Are you literally one guy who's
moving three bodies around simultaneously?
Cuz that would be weird. Are you some?
Sort of weird jest, stalled where individually you have your
own personality, but then different personality as each of
your components meets up or something.
Yeah, like Vine. Fascinating concept.
They do nothing with it. Yeah, Skylings Beast half
(07:54):
attacks the Preticons while his birdie half pulls blurs ass out
of the mud. Together, the group is able to
take out the preticons and send them running.
Grimlock even picking up Razor Claw in his mouth and shaking
him like a naughty Kitty, Grimlock tells Blur.
He's lucky they got tired of waiting or he'd be a mud pie.
Grimlock knows what a mud pie is.
(08:16):
He probably helped with babysitting Daniel.
That's exactly what I was thinking too.
I'm like, well, he does hang outwith Daniel.
And now I'm just imagining we baby Daniel with this, rounded
by Dinobots. So cute.
Hanging out, making mud pies. I feel like the Dinobots would
be into that, let's be honest. Yep, the group decides to go
after the Death Crystals in order to stop the Decepticons
(08:37):
plans Skylinks, heading off to do a little Recon.
Meanwhile, the Proticons report their defeat to Galvatron.
Sorry boss, that Skylinks was just too fantastic.
Skylinks on the Autobots attack,Rettgard gets hit and says some
nonsense about zip lock not locking.
Well, he does talk TV, skylinks,lands and proclaims.
(08:58):
I thought you scrawny beast and had enough of a licking for one
day. Before the ground below him
promptly explodes and sends him down the hill.
Where he lands on his back, looking rather a lot like enough
upturned turtle. This reminds me of when Optimist
died blowing down the hill. Almost died.
Yeah, balls of Hey hey Sky likes.
(09:19):
Are you sure you want those to be your last?
Words. Oh, famous last words.
Galvatron fires on the other Autobots while the Predicons
form Predic King again leaving the others to guard The Cave in.
Trends cup heads into the caves to confront chaos.
He's got to make up for being a coward before the Autobots
escaped back in the forest, finding a still injured
(09:41):
skylinks. In the mountain cup taunts chaos
before running away and freeing the trapped robots who've
apparently just been there all this time and are still there
after several 100,000 years. They must have such amazing
battery life, you know, they they don't build them like they
did in the old days. But now freed robots overrun the
(10:05):
Decepticons and their cannon, Because that's apparently what
the Decepticons were collecting the Death Crystals for.
Yeah, I don't know if they plan to move it closer to Cybertron
or what, but yes. Or how they were going to do it,
firing said cannon at Chaos and finally destroying the damn
thing. The shot appears to have set off
(10:25):
a volcano, which probably not helped by the fact that Chaos is
made-up of the Death crystals and.
Those probably get destabilized or whatever.
So yeah, the volcano goes off and that sends the cons running
cup is saved by the timely arrival of our shuttle lion bird
thing, as well as the two freed robots that had been helping.
(10:47):
Leaving everyone else to die? I have no idea.
We never see any of these, any of the like, enslaved robots,
previously enslaved robots ever again.
So I don't fucking know, and I feel like loss of life is really
nebulous on whether Cyber Trip is whether the Autobots actually
care about that at any even point or not.
(11:08):
Is too much moral quandary for achildren's cartoon?
Apparently, apparently. And thus our story ends as it
began, with Cups sharing more war stories with the other
Autobots, this particular tale seeming to be Jonah and the
Whale, but with robots. And an extra cup in space.
(11:28):
No one can hear you in a whale when you're in space.
The rest of the Autobot sure wish they couldn't hear Cup
right now, except for Grim, who's having a grand old time.
But that ends today's episode, So join us next time for episode
73, Dark Awakening. So you know how they killed
Optimus Prime. They make it worse.
(11:49):
Significantly fucking worse. Like the executives went, let's
go traumatize them them kids some more, pretty much.
And Specs has some fan fanfic for us today.
The first one is Knightly Ritualby Arian Sato.
It's G1 cartoon Rita T it's Jen,there's no pairings.
(12:11):
Characters are cup and RC and insummary he meaning cup here
can't ever recharge the night after a battle and I picked it
because it's cup focused and after a battle as like.
This is and it's like. Exploring his trauma.
Yeah, trauma. Or his ways of making himself
(12:34):
settle down and deal with, you know, the anxiety and nerves
after a fight. And it's a one shot.
The second one is student leader, youngling teacher by
raised by Mughal's paper I see reference.
All one word. And it's G1 cartoon rated G Gen.
(12:56):
There's no pairings and the characters are Rodhamus Prime
and cup. And in summary, Rodhamus has
some ball bearings, throwing cupin the brick and great
description. It's one shot and I picked it
because well, various points. Cup is, you know, Imprisoned
and. It's interesting to see
(13:18):
explorations of their relationship, considering that
it has to have changed quite a lot.
Yeah, I mean, they don't really explore that in the cartoon,
which again is I think part of the problem I have with season
three is there are all these interesting concepts.
We do nothing with them. And so we picked two cup ones.
Since this episode was Cup Storytime, it was definitely Cup
(13:43):
Story time. Cup story time Time to.
Become the story. Become part of the story.
Except isn't that technically any episode with Cup?
Because you'll just tell those stories later.
I just am now imagining like TikToker Cup, like telling these
horror stories. So YouTube has this thing where
(14:03):
it's like, all right, we're going to have story time, where
we're going to, like, talk aboutthe gossip, but they call it
story time. So now I'm just imagining cup as
an influencer doing story time, but it's like legitimately his
stories. That's actually mildly
terrifying because unfortunatelymy brain is adding it to, you
know, the really long nails and various other aesthetic things
(14:24):
that TikTok influencers can tendto have.
And so it's basically just now old Queen Cup.
No, no, I meant the man is probably terrible with with
actual tech. I know he is tech, but he's
probably terrible with actual tech.
Like probably like, I don't know, maybe maybe Blur is like
(14:44):
recording him or something. Blur runs the media account, not
cup. Oh God, someone just sets up the
camera anytime Cup is telling the story.
Yeah, yeah, he. Doesn't know what the fuck is
happening and it's someone else that's.
Eventually someone shows cop that he is an Internet
sensation. Somebody is stealing the ad
(15:04):
revenue, is what I'm getting at,yes.
God, you know, Swindle would do it.
Oh, well, he would if he was an Autobot.
I'm actually wondering if. He'd probably send in, you know,
Laser Peak. I I like the idea of it's all
going to Daniel's college fund. Actually, COP is single handedly
paying for Daniel's college. Spike should be working for the
(15:29):
government as out about liaison.Who the hell no.
Or Carly is some sort of high paid scientist, you know that
woman went to like fucking Harvard or something.
OK, that's that was something ofa digression.
Sorry about that. And that just about wraps it up
for us today. Remember to check us out on
