This is where stakes are really high. In this third movie, Spike and Carly are now living together in Chicago, with the Autobots continuing to work with NEST to take down any remaining Decepticons around the world. However, a new enemy comes and threatens to wreak havoc among the human race. He plans to bring back an army of a new wave of Decepticons and wipe out the whole human race starting with Chicago. Realizing the grave and terrible danger again, Spike and Carly must reunite with the Autobots one final time to stop this new enemy from destroying Earth and possibly making Earth the new Cybertron. This will level the stakes a lot more the original third movie tried to do. This will adapt one of the episodes "Divide and Conquer," along with having some of the same elements that the final battle had in the original movie, but this time a lot of people die. Some of the original Autobots will die as well, and some of the human allies will betray the Autobots and work for the Decepticons. Sentinel Prime will be introduced but he won't turn into the bad guy. However, he will be mind controlled by the Dark Energon in the 4th movie fighting Prime, and will continue doing that in the 5th final movie. And also Spike and Carly will be engaged at the end of this movie remake.
