"Atlantis, Arise", the Transformers, October 3, 1985
Title is a bit misleading, as Atlantis doesn't factor into the plot. I suppose Sub-Atlantica Arise doesn't quite roll off the tongue the same way.
The Decepticons discover the undersea kingdom of Sub-Atlantica and enter into an alliance. Neither side trusts the other, but they put up with each other long enough to attack Washington, DC. Megatron even wrecks the Lincoln Memorial to make himself a new throne.
The Autobots are on the ropes for most of the episode, even with Wheeljack being taken offline. Can the Dinobots turn the tide?
Overall good. You think the Decepticons and Autobots are going to team up, but no. Starscream has several good moments even figuring out the Sub-Atlanticians can't be trusted.
