During a forest battle with the Decepticons, Beachcomber and Thrust become separated from the other Autobots. Stumbling upon a hidden lagoon, Beachcomber discovers a pool containing a large supply of Electum, which when applied to one's body renders that person invulnerable. Alas, the Decepticons also locate the pool, then coat themselves with Electum as part of a master plan to destroy the Autobots without any damage to themselves. The climax finds the Autobots and the Decepticons liberally covered with Electum -- while Beachcomber despairs over the damage and destruction that he has inadvertently brought upon the peaceful forest. Written by Dennis Marks, this aggressively pro-ecological Transformers episode first aired in America on November 4, 1985.
