* CallBack: Vincent makes an appearance. He's clearly still picking on Jack, and throws a hamburger at Smokescreen's window.
* FantasticRacism: Despite having grown close to the humans who frequent the base (namely the kids, Fowler, and occasionally Nurse Darby), Ratchet reacts badly when he thinks that they're going to bring in another human to be Smokescreen's partner.

* LoopholeAbuse: Jack is content to let Vince get away throwing food at the window, saying Autobots not being allowed to harm humans is a very big rule. Smokescreen won't think of harming Vince himself, but he suggests some appropriate payback: smearing his beloved car with fast food.

** This episode is the first time in Transformers history that we have ''ever'' seen Megatron scared out of his wits after discovering the legendary Star Saber, and for good reason. Despite trying to keep it away from Optimus, he expresses this reaction when the Autobot leader extracts the sword from the excavated mountain and BISECTS it with one strike. The look on his face [[https://youtu.be/IyWk4hxtapQ at 10:12]] is priceless.

Added DiffLines:
* {{Troll}}: Smokescreen proves to be one in this episode, messing happily messing around with humans and playing pranks with Jack. Deconstructed however in that the Autobots are taking their mission to protect Earth from the Decepticons seriously, and that his behavior simply causes problems for everyone.

* DubInducedPlotHole: The Japanese exclusive segments ''Arms Micron Theater'' and ''From the Cybertron Satellite: Transformers Division'' claim that the Star Saber is in fact the Matrix Saber which is included with the Arms Master Optimus Toy...despite the fact that the Matrix Saber is a combination of the Matrix of Leadership which Optimus carries and R.A., Ratchet's Arms Micron and the Star Saber has been on Earth for millions of years.

* OnlyTheChosenMayWield: The Star Saber can only be wielded by a Prime. And much like ExcaliburInTheStone, only a Prime can extract it from the enormous rock in which it's imbedded. In fact, the sword is emitting an energy field around the rock to hold it in place and to keep the rock from being destroyed around the sword itself.
