Alpha Trion gives the four Autobots the transformation cogs of four of the fallen Primes. They see Sentinel kneeling to a Quintesson commander as he gives them the Energon cubes. Airachnid tracks them and brings Alpha Trion to Sentinel, who subsequently kills him.
As the Autobots work to rally more non-transforming miners to their cause, Elita-1 gives Orion Pax a pep talk, citing his hope and charisma as a distinguishing feature that makes him their leader, not her.
Sentinel’s monologue about turning Cybertron into a slave planet is broadcast via Airachnid’s memory to the whole planet. All miners rebel and fight back. D-17, blinded by rage, fights and fires at Sentinel, but Orion takes the blast. Although Orion is caught by D-17, he lets Orion fall into the core of Cybertron as a final deception. D-17 then removes Sentinel’s transformation cog, which originally belong to Megatronus Prime, and installs it within himself. As he tears Sentinel in half before a cheering crowd of Cybertronians, Orion is brought to the core of Cybertron and sees the Primes of the past. They grant him the title Optimus Prime, and endow him with a reformatted body, complete with the Matrix of Leadership.
Prime confronts Megatron, and the two have a brief but most entertaining fight. Prime understands Megatron’s anger, but banishes him and his followers from Iacon City. The Matrix. once again in the hands of a Prime, causes Energon to flow freely throughout the planet, and Primus replaces all transformation cogs that were taken from the miners.

Post-credits – Megatron brands his followers with the image of Megatronus Prime, and names their team the “Decepticons.”
