Quotes 

• Blackarachnia : I scanned your file. You didn't get blasted to scrap metal by Unicron, you got blasted by Galvatron after you betrayed him.

  Starscream : Galvatron was a fool! I deserved to lead! So, you know my little secret. Then, the question remains, why did you not expose me to Megatron?

  Blackarachnia : Well, I thought you might make me a better offer.

  Starscream : [chuckling]  Greed and self-interest, eh? Excellent. I believe I discern a protege.

• Optimus Primal : I have to tell you, Starscream, you're giving space debris a bad name.

  Starscream : Optimus. We've been impetuous. Surely we can work something out... Blackarachnia! Destroy him and we can still triumph together!

  Blackarachnia : Are all your dreams in technicolor?

  [ignites a small cache of energon underneath Starscream] 

  Starscream : Energon? You've betrayed me!

  Blackarachnia : I studied with the master.

  [With a scream, Starscream's spark is disgorged from Waspinator's body] 

  Optimus Primal : Hasta la vista, Starscream!

• Blackarachnia : The Decepticons were our ancestors. For centuries, they warred with the Autobots.

  Megatron : The ancient ancestors of the Maximals.

  Starscream : That war was lost, alas.

  Blackarachnia : And you were destroyed. It's written in the chronicles of Cybertron.

  Starscream : Ah, so it was believed. I fell defending my leader, Galvatron, against the most powerful enemy of all, the giant Transformer, Unicron. My exostructure was destroyed but, miraculously, my spark endured, drifting helplessly through the depths of space, beyond the reach of time itself!

  Megatron : Hmm. And now that you're here, Air Commander, what do you want?

  Starscream : Uh, why, to pledge allegiance to the glorious Megatron and fight as your loyal lieutenant.

  Megatron : Well, you'll forgive the glorious Megatron for not melting into a puddle of gratitude. Tell me, why should I trust you?

  Starscream : Because I can show you how to crush the Maximals and win the Beast Wars once and for all!

• Waspinator : Ohhh... Waspinator has a headache in his whole body... Ohh!

  Blackarachnia : It was the only way. I had to play along with Starscream to find out his "true" intentions.

  Megatron : You are smooth, Blackarachnia. Very smooth. But it does not inspire confidence, though. NO!
