* EnemyMine: The Society of Ultimate Villainy temporarily team up with Sari and Bumblebee after they are betrayed by Swindle to get back at him. Subverted as, the second Swindle is defeated, they backstab the two and try to escape.
* FailedASpotCheck: Despite the fact that living robots who can turn into vehicles have been in the city for close to a year by that point (not to mention the fact that they've all fought Autobots at least once), none of the SUV suspect that the self-driving car that magically appeared when they needed it and who's radio gives them their big job is a Cybertronian.
