Adding an elephant in the room where Sam was mentioned by Optiimus by a brief scene if you hear it close enough, does bring a headscratcher about wanting to know his fate.

[[folder:Was Optimus telling Sam to run? Does that imply Sam was killed in between Dark of the Moon and Age of Extinction? Was Cemetery Wind responsible?]]
* Here is a big elephant in the room? During the first scene where Optimus was transforming after being revived by Cade and Lucas, during his freakout at the humans, he goes on to say "Sam... Run" but we can barely make note of what he was saying at that moment, but if you hear it very closely, you can hear something about Sam, That does raise some clues to what happened, and from how Optimus was reacting, it could be implied that Sam Witwicky was killed by Cemetery Wind sometime after Dark of the Moon, as apparently he was with Optimus when they were ambushed. Was Sam a fugutive that know too much about the Autobots? It also then raises questions on others who had close ties with them in the past before, did Cemetery Wind get to them as well? We would never know.

* On a similar note, why no to flee to somewhere far out of Cemetery Wind's jurisdiction. Doubt a CIA paramilitary would be able to get the hardware required to take down an Autobot into say, Cuba or Switzerland. In fact, in the next movie, the Cuban government is more than willing to give refuge to the surviving Transformers.

* Why don't any of the Autobots to flee to somewhere far out of Cemetery Wind's jurisdiction? Doubt a CIA paramilitary would be able to get the hardware required to take down an Autobot into say, Cuba or Switzerland. In fact, in the next movie, the Cuban government is more than willing to give refuge to some of the surviving Transformers-and this is after most of the world has turned on them after Hong Kong. I'm sure the Autobots could find some refuge from Cemetery Wind.

[[folder: Cemetery Wind's lack of oversight]]
* Was no one at the CIA making sure CW stayed in line? For that matter, how did no one in the US government, or even world governments (CW has been operating outside the US) figure out Cemetery Wind was hunting down Autobots. You'd think the largest intelligence agency in the world would be able to tell when it's own agents have gone rouge.

** He didn't gain that ability until '''after''' he picked up the sword prior to freeing the Dinobots. [[https://youtu.be/QZLgiwYP5to Watch here.]] Notice how in the start of the clip, he's rather slender, but when he grabs the hilt of the sword, plates slide into view and he's a bit buffer? That's when he gained the thrusters enabling space flight. It's a called back to ''WesternAnimation/BeastWars'' when Optimus Primal took prime's Spark and became Optimal Optimus, and in {{Transformers}} when Hot Rod took Prime's Spark and became Rodimus Prime.

[[folder:That elevator]]
*They go down this elevator, 4 people and a bomb. The elevator says that it can take 680 kgs. I'd say at most the 4 people weigh a total of 320-330. Joshua is easily able to carry the bomb. Why's this elevator so faulty?

[[folder: Galvatron's "intended" design.]]
* We can see a diagram of the Optimus Clone that KSI intended Galvaron to look like in the background of the scene where he's introduced. That diagram appears to be based on the Evasion design Optimus sports at the start of the film. Shouldn't it look like DOTM design, given that the Evasion design was only adopted by Optimus ''after'' escaping Cemetery Wind, and thus should have first been seen by humans when he transformed in Cade's Garage?

** Chicago was the worst since Decepticons basically rolled in and started shooting up humans whole sale for a solid day before anyone stopped them. Mission City was relatively short and less destructive, to the point where with enough bribes and damage control the entire incident was covered up, and Giza happened out in the middle of nowhere.
