And now Riptide is saying that he's a bad guy, that he's done terrible things and can never be forgiven. But wasn't that half the Cybertronian's on this ship? Starscream wasn't a complete asshole, Megatron was trying to atone for his sins and--hell--even Whirl was being nice to him. Sort of.]

[Hes grabbing at straws now.] Would you give me to Tarn? Huh?! Do I need to start watching my back?
