* CompulsiveLiar: The fact Ramjet can only tell lies is what tips Prowl off to the former and Lockdown's trap.

'''Ramjet''': And here I am, completely disarmed and helpless.\\

Added DiffLines:

* CharacterDevelopment: Prowl's flashbacks are meant to establish that he's come a ''long'' way to be who he is today. When he first met Yoketron, he was a draft-dodger who avoided the war to simply save his own skin. He was an impulsive fighter (no different from Bumblebee) who relied on his holographic mod before Yoketron taught him to be more self-reliant. By the time he mastered his training with Yoketron, Prowl was a little bit more like the bot we know today.


Added DiffLines:

* TragicKeepsake: Prowl regains Yoketron's helmet as the only thing left of his master.

* {{Unperson}}: Yoketron has removed all evidence of his failed disciple, which helps aid the reveal later on.
* UnwantedRevival: Prowl tries to resurrect Yoketron using a remaining protoform, but the latter chides him for trying to revive the past with a piece of the future, before allowing his spark to burn out.

* MilesGloriosus: Sentinel, to an extreme degree. Even after Prowl exposes his ruse, Sentinel still has the gall to claim that he's actually capturing Decepticons despite actually relying on Lockdown to do the dirty work for him.

* WoundedGazelleGambit: Lockdown opted to betray Sentinel to Ramjet in exchange for better upgrades and energon. Part of the con was making it look like Ramjet had stasis-cuffs locked on.

* SpottingTheThread: Optimus notices something is off when Sentinel gags the sycophantic Starscream clone Sunstorm, and has done the same to Blitzwing and Lugnut. Prowl also notices that the weapons and modifications are missing off the prisoners, something only Lockdown is known to do. Sentinel quickly covers his skid plate by showing he had Lugnut's Punch Of Kill Everything devices confiscated. That's still not enough to convince him, and Prowl continues to sneak around, proving his suspicions about Sentinel being in league with Lockdown being correct.

* IdiotBall: Lockdown, surprisingly, holds it when he terminates a lucrative partnership with Sentinel because Ramjet offered him a better deal. Putting aside the fact that listening to Ramjet for more than a minute reveals him to be a blatant liar, it's highly unlikely he had any capital to speak of.
