Following his return from the Limbo dimension, Optimus Prime is disconcerted that the Autobots were so lost without him that they were prepared to forge an alliance with Megatron in order to defeat Galvatron. Afraid that they would be unable to cope if anything happened to him in the future, he decides to test them by faking his own death so that he can observe how they cope. Taking Wheeljack into his confidence, Prime has a facsimile construct made of himself; he then tells the Autobots that he is going out alone on a reconnaissance mission to the Decepticon base, much to their consternation.
