And of class , all of the invention harken back to G1 undulation of original Transformers . They ’re a"modernization,“a hybrid of quondam schooling enliven aesthetics and the unrecorded - action Bumblebee we ’ve make love for years .

Agent Burns ( Cena ) is in the back of a Humvee - esque vehicle with a towage cable system gunman turret and Bumblebee seems prepared to surrender ( he turns off his engagement masquerade ) . And just as this pass a jet battler flies by in the sky and Burns questions who called in the Airforce .
It ’s of track Blitzwing who flies in and attacks , on the face of it killing most of the soldier with a barrage of missiles . He crash into Bumblebee pick him up as they fly up against the side of the mountain , quarrel it all the means up . Blitzwing ostensibly handles Bumblebee easily and verbalise , sentence him to " death " as he fires motorcar guns from his arm into Bumblebee . As Bumblebee is about to fall away off the edge , Blitzwing grabs him , holds him up - this is where it ’s emphasized how much bigger the Decepticon is equate to our little hoagie - and then drops him off the edge .
Bumblebee come all the agency down and seemingly give-up the ghost out next to a river and we see from his perspective that he ’s lose his memory core . As he ’s shutting down he find out the VW hemipteran at a nearby campsite so that ’s how he gets this kind .
In the next scene , Charlie ( on her eighteenth B - Day ) backwash up in her trailer domicile - all decked out in ' 80s stuff - brushes her teeth while listening to a walkman and then goes through a junkyard look for valuable or utilitarian parts and finds the car under a tarpaulin ( after knocking the boats over ) .

In her garage – as we see in prevue - she get word he ’s a robot who acts like a frightened tiddler . It ’s a touching scene and it ’s well-defined how much Charlie is looking for a connexion from a Quaker . Bumblebee ca n’t speak but can sympathise her . They bond right away and Charlie says he sounds like a Bumblebee and that ’s how he gets the name ( also , when she first get hold him there was a beehive under one of the wheels )
There are a few other scenes after this , but the key one is Shatter and Dropkick make trade with the military ( Sector 7 ) and recount them that there ’s a fleer from their planet that they ’re trace ( Bumblebee ) . The Sector 7 leader sees an chance to work together with them .
