[Newt doesn't really like how this situation is starting to unfold. Not especially since he's arguably the most likely to come out of a giant robot fight with injuries. He wants to do what Ratchet's saying and get out of the situation entirely, but when the imminent threat of crushing, agonising death is literally right ontop of him, he's not sure Ratchet's argument is entirely valid.

His hands do come out of the opened up skull though, but only so he can gesture with them, flicking bits of energon in all directions.]

You know what? No! I'm not gonna do that. Did you not notice the giant robot hammer ready to crack me open like a freaking pumpkin right here? Squishy is not a good look for me! And I kinda like living!
