** After the Decepticons trap Starscream in the energy cage, he looks like he's trying to shout the cage down. According to the script, he tried punching it, hence his scream.
** The Electro Mesh Prison was supposed to produce a high, oscillating whine, hence why Nightbird covers her ears and appears to be in pain.

To elaborate some more: this would be Refuge In Audacity if it was lampshaded how outrageous or unbelievable that the Decepticons have a “secret” base shaped like their insignia. But this is just classic 80’s cartoon campiness.

* ItCanThink: Nightbird's angry expression at the end of the episode implies she's gained sentience after seemingly being a mindless mechanoid for the whole episode.

* BerserkButton: Starscream routinely takes as much abuse from Megatron as he throws, but when Megatron gloats that [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness he is now redundant thanks to Nightbird]], the seeker ''attacks him in rage'', and needs to be restrained in a cage by the other Decepticons, marking one of very few physical altercations where Starscream actually overpowered Megatron.

The Autobots have been busy marking crucial energy locations for easy use and protection purposes. Naturally, this is something that the Decepticons desperately want. This is a solo mission, and they need someone that get in and out quickly. Meanwhile, word spreads about the new, powerful Nightbird being developed giving Megatron an idea. Under Decepticon control, Nightbird embarks on her mission into the Autobot base. Can the Autobots thwart the Decepticon plot and overcome Nightbird's martial arts techniques?
