It's Optimus Prime's birthday!
Synopsis
It's Optimus Prime’s birthday, but Bumblebee doesn’t know what kind of gift he’d like! Bumblebee nearly gets devoured by Wheeljack’s carnivorous plant, Grimlock’s appetite gets the better of him and he winds up eating his own energon cube, and Jazz suggests writing a song. Ratchet provides some sensible advice—it’s the thought behind the gift that really counts. Although Bumblebee doesn’t go with Ratchet’s suggestion of “nutrition juice”, he does wind up baking an enormous, Optimus Prime-shaped cake for all of the Autobots to enjoy.
