"When we arrived at Crystal City it was deserted, there was no sign of the Circle of Light. It looked as if there had been a confrontation but we were unable to investigate due to the intervention of the Galactic Council." A thankfully brief summary, all things considered.

Drift's reaction to his comment about Overlord didn't go unnoticed, and with everything that had happened because of those events, he wanted more than the minimal information Rodimus had given him.

"Drift, I have to ask, did you smuggle Overlord on board the Lost Light?" It was said with same tone he used on criminals to try and elicit a confession.
