Tarantulas and Blackarachnia team up to obtain the newest stasis pod. The pod births Inferno, a deranged Predacon who believes himself to be an ant rather than a robot. While Blackarachnia works with Inferno, Tarantulas takes the true prize he wanted: the stasis pod. Maximal Tigatron manages to destroy the pod Tarantulas has taken, but finds himself trapped in Predacon grounds against the spiders and Inferno.
