* ContinuityNod: In the previous episode "Hurt" (after learning that Hardshell was killed by [[BewareTheSillyOnes Miko]]), Megatron begins to see that humans aren't as weak or harmless as he thought. Here, he openly acknowledges that the humans on Team Prime are more of an asset to them than he previously believed. He even allows CYLAS to work with them for a while...although considering [[EvenEvilHasStandards their reactions to what MECH did to Breakdown]], that doesn't last very long.

* DoWithHimAsYouWill: Breakdown was one of Megatron's top officers, and worked well (as well as often) with Knockout. Naturally, the latter two are [[EvenEvilHasStandards horrified/disgusted]] when they learn that not only has Breakdown been dead for a considerable amount of time, but a human (one who had ''kidnapped and tortured'' him) stole his corpse and is now using it as his new body. Thus, it comes as no surprise when Megatron (while smiling) tells Knockout that he can do this trope to Cylas.
* KarmicDeath: Every time Silas appeared in the series, he was attempting to kill or mangle Cybertronians (no matter which faction they belonged to). He never respected that they were sentient, and subjected them to his inhumane experiments. So, when left at the mercy of the Decepticons, he's made into Knockout's newest science project, which promises to end [[TheyWouldCutYouUp very badly for him]].
