'Above reproach'. [Did Megatron seriously say that?]
Sir, I don't think that's going to work. [He taps the badge on his chest] My existence is a reproach to them. I didn't starve and die in exile like a "good Decepticon". As in, 'the only good Decepticon is a dead Decepticon'.
I'm not an Autobot, I don't give a slag what they feel reproachful about, and I am not going to re-program myself to suit their precious feelings. Sir.
Actions are what matter. What I DO is what matters, not what I say when I'm bored! I tried to warn them that they were trying to race down the wrong road, and I think Bee got it, but Sentinel--he wants trouble. Don't know what his problem is, but he's hunting trouble. I'm not the only bad-tempered bastard out there, so if he hunts trouble enough, he'll find it. With someone. Probably won't be with me, if he doesn't come around in my business and start something.
This isn't about Autobot or Decepticon. Do you think that they respect me because I suddenly wear the same badge as them? Do you think that they trust me? No, they do not. It's about what any decent person would do.
Frankly I don't care what approach you take with Sentinel. I'm already fully aware of how difficult he is.

It's not as easy for me. But I'm working on it.
