Following the defeat of the original Decepticon, &#8220;The Fallen,&#8221; the remaining Decepticons use an AllSpark shard to resurrect Megatron, who&#8217;s sent by this master to capture Sam Witwicky and kill Optimus. The action and excitement get intense as Bumblebee, Jetfire, and other Autobots join in and the battle rages. How does it all end?
