Applejack: I'm fine.

Fluttershy: Me too.

Rarity: Me three.

[The Autobots pick themselves up]

Bulkhead: What just happened?

Ratchet: I can't be certain. But if two Groundbridges sent to the same coordinates crossed streams, the feedback could have triggered a system overload.

Smokescreen: Could? Hello! More like totally did!

Pinkie Pie: Yeah.

Applejack: It's like they can't even hear you.

Fluttershy: Uh-huh.

Rarity: True.

Bulkhead: At least Smokescreen and the ponies made it through, right?

Smokescreen: Huh?

Pinkie Pie: What's he talking about?

Applejack: What?

Fluttershy: What the heck?

Rarity: Bulkhead! We're right here!

Optimus Prime: Arcee, did Smokescreen and the other ponies make it safely back to base?

Arcee: [over comm] Negative. You don't see them?

Ratchet: No sign.

Applejack: What? No sign? OK. Seriously, Bulk!

[Bulkhead walks right through her]

Smokescreen: He went right through you. We're not alive.

Pinkie Pie: I don't wanna be a ghost!

Applejack: Wait. How can we touch each other?

Fluttershy: I don't know.

Rarity: Me neither.

[Optimus thinks]

Optimus Prime: Ratchet, could they have been transported onto the Nemesis instead?

Ratchet: Not likely. If Starscream didn't arrive at our base, the most likely explanation is a dislocation. They may have simply been bridged to an unintended destination.

[Smokescreen suddenly realizes something]

Smokescreen: Another place but in the same place.

Pinkie Pie: What?

Applejack: Huh?

Fluttershy: What are you talking about?

Rarity: How can you explain that?

Smokescreen: We must be in some alternate reality. A shadowzone.

Pinkie Pie: What?!

Applejack: Seriously?!

Fluttershy: Is this true?

Rarity: You'd better believe it is.

[The other Autobots go over to Skyquake's tomb and see it is empty]

Optimus Prime: Look. Skyquake's tomb is empty.

Bulkhead: How did we miss Skyquake rising and shining?
