As the Kitchen Sinks is a human television series, a soap opera enjoyed by several of the Autobots. Characters include Sheryl, Donna, Gordon, and Jack.
On the one occasion that the Autobots were shown watching the show, the plot centered on a supposed affair between Donna and Gordon, which, if true, would mean that Jack was unaware that Sheryl had hidden a will, having substituted a fake document in its place.
Why this would be the case is unknown, but one thing is certain: the Autobots need to get out of the base more. Prime Target

Of all the Earth culture to appreciate, they chose the fine art of the soap opera.
- A deleted line from the episode expands on the complexities - the will belongs to Bob, and reveals that he named Katy as his true heir! Dun-dun-dunnn! This all becomes too much for the girl in the show, though, as she is then forced to ask: "Who's Bob?"
- At BotCon 2010, when quizzing fans on Transformers trivia, they were asked to "name the Autobots favorite soap opera". Only two people got this question correct.
