==Summary==
===Inspiring===
After the events of the first issue, in which the Autobots and Decepticons were accidentally transported to Equestria, Spike is transported to the Autobots' base of operations, the Ark, where he is greeted by the Dinobot Grimlock. Despite being the only Autobot present, Grimlock is confident in his ability to protect the Ark from enemy attacks, and Spike is enamored by his self-confidence and coolness.
The Ark suddenly comes under attack by the Constructicons Scrapper, Bonecrusher, Scavenger, Mixmaster, Hook, and Long Haul. Grimlock appears to confront them while the diminutive Spike stays on the sidelines. Grimlock is able to halt the Constructicons' attack, but when they combine into the gigantic Devastator, they overpower him, compelling Spike to assist.
Returning inside the Ark, Spike reads the instruction manual for the onboard computer Teletraan I and activates the Ark's engines to blast Devastator with heat exhaust. The Constructicons retreat, and Grimlock commends Spike as a "mighty warrior". Spike feels he did not do much to help, but Grimlock disagrees, praising his ability to learn the Cybertronian language and operate Teletraan I in a short time, and his quick thinking to use the Ark's engines as a weapon. When Grimlock calls Spike "inspiring", Spike faints.
===They Eat Ponies, Don't They?===
Pinkie Pie is hosting a live baking show, and she invites recent Autobot recruit Gauge onto the show in the spirit of Equestria/Cybertron cultural exchange. As the two share their favorite respective recipes, the Decepticon Shockwave suddenly appears via spacebridge, attacking the ponies with the intent of converting them into Energon.
As the ponies in the studio evacuate, Gauge tells Pinkie to get to safety, but Pinkie refuses to abandon Gauge, resolving to fight off Shockwave with her. Working together, Pinkie and Gauge disarm Shockwave, knock him off-balance, and send him back through the spacebridge. With the danger subsided, the ponies still present in the audience applaud, and Pinkie Pie and Gauge are able to conclude their baking show, ending with them sampling the cuisine of each other's cultures.
