Premise
A shopping mall is struck by a mysterious Energon cloud, turning the various objects (including non-electronics) into tiny transformable robots called BotBots. Among them, a group of items that were separated from their stores of origin awoke inside the lost-and-found, dubbing themselves the Lost Bots. Led by Burgertron, the leader of the Hunger Hubs, the Lost Bots dream to one day return to their original tribes, but after accidentally being spotted by the mall security guard (thus revealing the BotBots' existence to a human), they are treated as pariahs of the mall and set out to redeem themselves while discovering their own bonds and keeping away from many flesh beings.

As Burgertron leaves for his squad, the Lost Bots want to join him to find their squads. When Dave comes out of the bathroom, Burgertron teaches the Lost Bots "The Sacred Rule of the Mall": BotBots must never reveal their bot forms in front of the humans. Burgertron and the Lost Bots ride a mall train to avoid getting seen by the Mall Guard. They soon ride the escalator and successfully arrived at the food court, which unfortunately alerted Dave. When Dave looks in the train, he sees Bonz-Eye, Dimlit, Kikmee and Clogstopper in disguise form. And when he sees Burgertron in disguise form, he attempts to eat him. However, Dimit changes back to bot form and jumps to save Burgertron, which unfortunately causes Dave to see Burgertron and Dimlit in their bot forms and see them disappear along with Bonz-Eye, Clogstopper and Kikmee, leading Dave to discover that BotBots exist. Spud Muffin, Ulf the Orange and the other BotBots later appear out of nowhere, furiated that Burgertron and the Lost Bots broke The Sacred Rule of the Mall, which caused Burgertron to be cast out of the Hunger Hubs, become a Lost Bot and be shunned by the other BotBots along with the Lost Bots. However, the Lost Bots weren't upset, they only cared about the other squads in the mall. Burgertron soon becomes the leader of the Lost Bots to attempt to reconcile the other BotBots.
