"Get frakked!"
Those fighting words are spoken by brave female Autobot Arcee in this exclusive new clip from the latest episode of Hasbro Studios' "Transformers: Prime," which is slated to air on The Hub network this Friday. Finding herself at the mercy of the villainous Decepticons, who have intercepted an encrypted Autobot signal that needs decoding, Arcee's courageous nature is under no threat of crumbling under their intimidation tactics - until, that is, the physical safety of one of her Autobot compatriots becomes a factor.

This clip kinda makes me assume it isn't actually a flashback episode.

That makes no sense. Why would it take place in the present day? We don't see Megatron, Knock Out, Dreadwing, or the Insecticons, and Starscream is suddenly in command of the Decepticons again. Not to mention how Cliffjumper is in one piece. How would they wrap up how Starscream earned the trust of the Decepticons, or how Cliffjumper survived, in a 22 minute time-lapse?

Yep, this is a flashback; i have the comic on the ipod app and i recognize those lines, some are straight outta the prequel. I don't mind though, I liked the prequel, i like arcee and starscream, and i wanna see more of cliff and shockwave. Can't wait to see what they do with it

This is almost like it's trying to take the place of the prequel graphic novel comic. It matches up with the Decepticons' plans in that story, but the setting and circumstances are completely different.
In the comic, it was Cliffjumper who had captured and ordered to decrypt the message, not Arcee. And he was in a Decepticon base on Cyberton, not the Nemesis. And it was the Vehicons themselves doing the interrogating, not Starscream. and they didn't bring in another Autobot to try and force Cliff to decrypt the message. Arcee came in on her own and saved his rear end in the scuffle.
And if Shockwave's aboard the Nemesis here with them, when and how did he come aboard? He was left back on Cybertron during the Great Exodus, so he'd have to have come later. And if he is on the ship at the time of this clip's events, where is he in the present day and why is no longer on the ship?
Oy, why oh why must this episode contradict so much of the very comic that was made to lead directly into episode 1?!!

The clone wars kind of did this too, except the comic didn't directly tie in to anything, but i think the situations are the same in that we're meant to assume that the show supersedes the printed media. Plus they might tie in to the first episode yet, all they've shown is space footage.
Besides, If it is a direct adaptation, we might see Breakdown again
Oh and as an aside, do we have any idea as to the identity of Cliff's voice actor? It sounds enough like Dwayne Johnson to possiblybbe him but disimilar enough to be another actor

Well, shucks. Here i got all excited that they might be using Makeshift as leverage, posing as a Dead Cliffy, but you guys have comics to back it up.
I suppose it could be a protoform, though...

Lol you find out makeshift put a bomb o the real wheeljack and shoved him through the griund bridge to the decepticon ship.

And, as the video games, novels, and other comics have clearly shown, the cartoon is obviously not going to show the entirety of the history. Look at Makeshift, for example. The show killed him off, so it was up to Exiles to flesh him out and explore his character.

I doubt Wheeljack would referring to Starscream as "Lord" like Makeshift did when he was shoved through the Ground Bridge.
