Needles
Sam wasn't sure if this was a common trait among every species in the universe, or if it was only restricted to sentient beings, but apparently this little trait affected giant robots as well. It was amusing, yet understandable at the same time, which was why he didn't outright laugh when he had witnessed it happen. That, and he probably would have been squished or flicked by some humiliated, ticked off Autobots.
They hated needles.
How did he know? Well, for one, he was there to witness the Autobots literally head for the hills the moment Ratchet stepped into the docking bay of their new base with several robot-sized needles in tow. Even the great Optimus Prime and fearless Ironhide ran out of there like bats out of hell.
Sam really would have laughed if he hadn't felt some sympathy for them. He hated needles as well, and those were some big frakkin' needles the medic was wielding.
Up until that point, he didn't think robots even needed to get booster shots, but apparently they do, and hate it just as much as humans. Learn something new every day, huh?
And so there they had been, all rounded up by Ratchet through some coaxing (read: threatening), getting their shots and not liking it one bit, but it was either get the shot or be painfully dismantled and reassembled as a toaster.
Sam also had to wonder; did every medic have to have such an evil smile?
