The idea came to me after a small chat with my friend.

Schrödinger's cat
***
It was quiet on the bridge of the Nemesis.
"Hey, Steve? Come, take a look at this."
"Greg, we shouldn't… We got work to do… Besides, Soundwave might come back any moment now. And you know the TIC doesn't like anyone surfing the World Wide Web on his work station."
"Yeah yeah," the other drone huffed and waved off his companion's comment. "Just look." He pointed at the screen.
With a sigh Steve glanced at the screen. Someday his friend would be the offlining of him... Wha-?
"Greg, what is that?"
The Vehicon in question crossed his servos. "I don't know. It's something called a 'Schrödinger's cat'. Apparently it's both dead and alive at the same time."
Steve stared at the picture. "Gross."
"Strange, more or less."
"That can't be possible."
Greg shrugged dismissively: "Unless the humans have figured out a way."
"They aren't that clever. Speaking of clever, we got to go, now," Steve scoffed and emphasized his point by grabbing the drone by the arm and starting to drag him away from the console.
"Oh, don't be a kitty." The other Vehicon jeered and pulled his hand out of Steve's grasp. "Aren't you even a little bit intrigued on how it can be both dead and alive at the same time?"
A digit tapped the flyer's shoulder.
"What now?" Greg grunted and turned around, only to notice his fellow drone standing beside his other shoulder, frozen. The Vehicon glanced, slowly, to the other side; Soundwave stared back at him.
The spy's visor flashed to life, playing back an audio file with the drone's voice: "Aren't you even a little bit intrigued on how it can be both dead and alive at the same time." The file changed: "Doctor in the house."
Both of the Vehicons gulped clearly.
Soundwave tilted his helm and played one last audio clip, in Megatron's voice: "I'm certain it can be arranged."
Those two are always in trouble... I kind of feel sorry for them.
Schrödinger's cat is a paradox-kinda thought thingy in quantum physics. I'm not a physicist, so don't ask.
