[The feed turns on to show Optimus Prime standing out by the pier (if you could tell, he kind of blocks a lot of the view), and his expression is quite troubled. Megatron had only been in the city a short time and he had already caused one human death. And he highly doubted it would stop there. His brows furrow as he almost seems like he doesn't

Monsieur, je dois vous poser certaines choses au sujet de votre expériences avec Mlle Caroline. Je suis de Black Mesa, le principal rival de Aperture Science ... et je sais de quoi elle est capable.
Pourquoi aurait-elle besoin d'aide pour Megatron?
["Sir, I need to ask you a few things about your experiences with Miss Caroline. I'm from Black Mesa, Aperture Science's main rival...and I know of what she's capable of.
Why would she need Megatron's help?"]

I would be willing to offer you any information I can, if it is to help Miss Caroline.
She wanted help from the Decepticons, an army of Cybertronians who wish to rule the universe and any sentient beings. Autobots offered her help as well, but she found the Decepticons to be the more powerful ally.

[His brows furrow. Sorry, but he doesn't feel really comfortable talking about this with you, Trevor.]
I am searching all possible options.

[Sorry Trevor, maybe when you're done stealing fairies he'll be more inclined to talk.]

It's not that bad.
He'll actually live to regret this because of that well. And it's not even going to be my fault.
[Can you tell the difference between them, Prime? CAN YOU? Here's a hint: Caroline probably wouldn't be sounding so blase right now.]
We're going to be entering an interesting time. If I were you I'd relax. We have a professional working here.

You are the one called GLaDOS, am I correct?

That's for another time.
Anyway, trust me. By the time this is done and over with, the punishment might vast outweigh the crime.

I do not wish to condone further violence. Merely to immobilize him.

I know I don't stand a chance against Megajerk but, I'm not going to stand by and watch him hurt innocent people, especially those I consider my friend.
And don't worry I'd never judge you that way, I know you're totally different than he is.
[All the seriousness. There's a very good reason she's reacting so strongly to something this bad. And she's finally going to put her anger and frustration about it all to good use.]

I do not wish to put you in harm's way, Miss Saft. But you are strong. Do take care to protect any and all that you can.
I am grateful you are all so forgiving of our race.

But humans aren't really as all close-minded as that, I know because I'm partly one myself. [She smiles at the screen and brushes some of her hair back behind her ear.] Like I said, I'll stand by you if you're going to go up against him.

I merely did not want to let the human race down.

This guy.
That is not to say he did not see it.
The tone is... soft. Almost a murmur, really]
The young woman... Who is she, Optimus?
[No mention of Megatron. Not a word of the incident. As if he wished only to put it out of his mind]

Her name is Caroline, Skyfire.

... Not that he actually thinks he could have handled this particular flavor of Megatron. Megatron wasn't that big at home.]
Would you... If it is at all possible, would you be able to tell me if she is doing well? If you ever find out...

I do have one request, however.
