//Pee-Dee, what the hell are you up to?//
Yes, she was just dropped into the middle of an alien world, just like the rest of them. Kup is still positive she's up to something.

There is a baffled pause as she tries to figure out why Kup is demanding to know what she's up to. She hasn't beaten anyone for information yet!
//... Chief?//

Kup hesitates, then reconsiders. Finally, he asks, //Pee-Dee, are you aware of the situation?//

//Yep. Screwdriver's been around, causing trouble, but she apparently got sent off. Trying to find out what the exact wording was to convince her to go, then maybe see if I can get a lead on where she headed. May have to try something drastic, but I'd prefer not to let her know I'm here until I've got her on her stomach and cuffed.//

//Not really what I was referring to, Pee-Dee,// Kup replied dryly.
//As for Screwdriver, Perceptor sent her off to find 'Excalibur.' She asked if 'Arthur' didn't have it, decided that we must have misplaced him, declared that she was going out to look for him, and took off. We figure she was looking for Rodimus Prime, who's here now, or, if not that, just a Prime or a Matrix.//
//She also left a workshop behind. Pretty unpleasant stuff. Most these guys don't know about what was found in it, but Nightbeat and Bumblebee were the ones who found it, and Nightbeat, First Aid, and Long Haul - who's an Autobot here, by the way, if the name sounds familiar - investigated. Nightbeat did what forensics he could, the other two were mostly there to make sure none of her half-finished 'toys' blew up in anyone's faces. The workshop's since been locked up as best I can jury-rig a lock in this damned place.//
Kup, for his part, rather hopes to be around when Pee-Dee happens on Nightbeat. He may not be much for Terran media, but he's still got enough familiarity to know what a cliché the both of them are, and what kind of clichés. Should be entertaining.
Finally, Kup adds, //But I was talking about the situation as a whole, Pee-Dee, not Screwdriver in particular.//

//Hnh. I'll still need to interview the witnesses, you understand. And that workshop's got to be taken apart and examined very carefully. Where is it?//
//This bulldozer, Wedge, offered me some baloney about people getting ganked from across the multiverse and dropped here. He's been otherwise helpful, though, so I ain't been in the mood to question his sanity to his face.//

Kup presently ignores Pee-Dee's demand to know where the workshop is, and instead says, //Pee-Dee, it's this universe, this place, that's crazy. Not Wedge. What Wedge told you is the honest truth. Right on the money, or however you folks say it.//

There's a brief crackle as Kup activates his radio, but then hesitates before actually speaking. //Yes. In fact, you should probably consider yourself re-assigned until further notice. We intend to get everyone back, but there are a few issues getting in the way, besides Screwdriver. Not least of which is we don't know how or why this is happening.//

//Guess that means I'm working under you again, Chief.// Oh, you can so hear her grin over the radio.

If there's innuendo there, Kup completely misses it.
//Yeah,// Kup sighs. //Sounds like it, Pee-Dee.//
//Welcome to Gillanan III,// he adds grudgingly.

//Pee-Dee, I'd like to talk with you. Take the large road that goes past the main Zoo gate, and meet me at the fifth intersection west of it.//
OOC Note: Fuzzy time is being employed here. This radio call goes out before the business with Skyfire went down, but after the Rattrap and Airazor interviews.
