[... the lab is a disaster. It's almost hard to tell that is is Perceptor's lab. It looks as if a wrecking ball went through the room. There's nothing left undamaged in some way. Even his chair is all but flattened.]

[The scientist himself stands in the middle of the room, sorting broken bits of something into crates.]

... as you can see, any projects I was currently working on are... on hold, to say the least. I don't have a working computer, let alone proper lab facilities, at the moment.

[He tosses the piece he's holding into a crate, dragging his hand down his face.]

And... if there happens to be any bored parties capable of heavy lifting who find themselves with nothing to do... clearly I've need of assistance.

Then maybe you should work on not setting him off before fixing up that mess.

[sciencetank]

I did no such thing! I walked in, and he was already there, in that state!

We have our differences, but I have no desire to aggravate Grimlock by any means. He is an Autobot, a... comrade. Why would I want to "set him off"?

[headgames]

Must of done something to him.

[sciencetank]

Why must I? Why do you automatically assume I was the one to provoke him?

[headgames]

He was in your lab.

[sciencetank]

He has access codes.

We come from the same world. He knows me.

Something occurred, and I can only surmise he came looking for me there. I was occupied elsewhere at the time, and thus I can't tell you exactly what transpired.

... He smashed my security console as well.

[headgames]

Well it sounds like your fault.

[sciencetank]

Despite repeated evidence to the contrary?

Why are you so eager to blame me? Ask Grimlock if you like. But I had no part in this.

[headgames]

Right.
