"Selfish? Selfish? You think--you know what, maybe you should have informed Rodimus that it was so damn important, because after we were done on Luna-1 he had a vote! He had everybody vote to see if they wanted him to stay captain and said he'd step down if a majority voted against him."

Ratchet is venting hard before he stops, something cold detonating in his tanks, and it shows on his face. He recovers after a moment, trying not to think of the look on Rodimus' face when Ratchet told him he'd voted against.

"He won, as it happens, with no help from me. But don't you talk about being selfish. That's his job."
