1	----
2	!!Tropes
3	* ADayInTheLimelight: Fowler is the main star of the episode as he tries to explain everything to General Bryce.
4	* AsYouKnow: While Fowler is being recorded for the benefit of the higher-ups, he's also talking directly to someone familiar with the situation so he says this.
5	* BreatherEpisode: Between the action-packed "Nemesis Prime" and "Armada".
6	* BrickJoke: During the season 1 finale, Miko mishears "Unicron" as "unicorn". The general does the same thing here, and Fowler, out of frustration, simply asks that the words "Unicron" and "unicorn" be scratched from the record.
7	* CharacterDevelopment: Fowler proves how far he's come in trusting and respecting Optimus and the Autobots, a far cry from his initial scepticism and cynicism of them.
8	* ClipShow: Most of the episode features clips from previous episodes.
9	* TheComicallySerious: Where Optimus can make even a simple greeting hilarious.
10	-->'''Optimus Prime''': I am fine, General Bryce. How are you?
11	* [[ForgotICouldFly Forgot I Could Phone in Optimus]]: Fowler could have spared the viewers and General Bryce the overlong ClipShow and just phone in Optimus to prove he's not dead.
12	-->'''Agent Fowler:''' Gah, hold on! ''(phones Prime)'' PRIME?! I need an assist!
13	* {{Foreshadowing}}:
14	** While commenting on Airachnid and Arcee's rivalry, he notes only one will be victorious...
15	--->'''Agent Fowler:''' I can't help but feel the next time those two lock horns, only one's gonna walk away.
16	** He also strongly implies that much of the next season's going to be a MacGuffinMelee.
17	** Fowler and Bryce briefly discuss Silas and his weapon Project Damocles, which happens to be the main source of conflict in "The Human Factor".
18	* HiddenDepths: Fowler's loyalty to and respect for the Autobots (especially Prime) is on full display here.
19	* JitterCam: Most of the framing story is shown from the point-of-view of a camera being held by Bryce's subordinate.
20	* OhCrap: When Optimus showed up in the window, the camera shot pulls back very abruptly. Based on the motion, the cameraman actually fell to the floor in shock over seeing Optimus in-person. It's a wonder we didn't hear Private Daley talk at that point.
21	* RecapEpisode: The whole episode recounts the exploits of Team Prime via a ClipShow.
22	* StatusQuoIsGod: This episode quickly resolves the issue started last episode regarding the Autobots being marked as "shoot on sight" by the US military.
