Jerry was an employee at NASA but was black mailed by [[Laserbeak (DOTM)|Laserbeak]] to do the Decepticons dirty work and became a Decepticon agent.

He quit NASA and went to work at Accuretta Systems to get away from Laserbeak but was found again. Jerry began to lose his sanity and do weird stuff like get up in other employ&#039;s faces (even the bosses) and disrupt the office environment. One day, Sam Witwicky was hired there.

Sam tried to talk to Wang about the paper documents eh gave him, but stopped him and saying that they were not boyfriends and told his to come back when he learned some manners.

		<summary type="html">&lt;p&gt;125.237.138.60: /* See also */&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;[[Image:Afterdeath-gameoverman.jpg|right|300px|thumb|Oh, he&#039;s gone and died again.  Botheration!  Most inconvenient.]]&lt;br /&gt;
Across the various continuities, &#039;&#039;&#039;Optimus Prime dies a lot.&#039;&#039;&#039;  This happens for various reasons:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* It allows for him to be replaced by [[Hot Rod (G1)|a new character]] (and thus [[To sell toys|a new toy]]).&lt;br /&gt;
* It allows for him to come back from the dead in a new body (again, a new toy).&lt;br /&gt;
* It&#039;s dramatic (in theory).&lt;br /&gt;
* It makes him into something of a [[Jesus|Christ]]-figure.&lt;br /&gt;
* It allows for numerous [[Optimus Prime memorials|memorials]] to be constructed in his honor (though they&#039;re some times built even &#039;&#039;before&#039;&#039; he dies, morbidly enough).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Nearly every continuity family has featured Prime dying at least once; the only exceptions are the Optimus Primes from &#039;&#039;[[Robots in Disguise (cartoon)|Robots in Disguise]]&#039;&#039; (though [[The Final Battle (RID)|only just]]), &#039;&#039;[[Shattered Glass (franchise)|Shattered Glass]]&#039;&#039; and &#039;&#039;[[Transformers: Prime (cartoon)|Transformers: Prime]]&#039;&#039; (so far).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Some examples:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Generation 1 cartoon continuity==&lt;br /&gt;
===&#039;&#039;Generation 1 cartoon&#039;&#039;===&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Wardawn_orion_dies.jpg|right|210px|thumb|Dying before he&#039;s even Optimus Prime (he&#039;s that good).]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Orion Pax died (or was at least severely damaged by Megatron) and had to be rebuilt into Optimus Prime by [[Alpha Trion (G1)|Alpha Trion]]. It&#039;s possible that if Orion had not been repaired, Optimus Prime would have ceased to exist. Pax&#039;s girlfriend Ariel was also heavily damaged, and rebuilt into [[Elita One]]. They were with their friend [[Dion]] when they were attacked by Megatron, although it is unknown if he was likewise rebuilt.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===&#039;&#039;The Transformers: The Movie&#039;&#039;===&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:TFTM dead gray Prime.jpg|left|180px|thumb|[[:wikipedia:Oscar Wilde#Release and death|&amp;quot;Either that wallpaper goes, or I do.&amp;quot;]]]]&lt;br /&gt;
* The best-known example is from &#039;&#039;[[The Transformers: The Movie]]&#039;&#039;, in which [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]] dies of wounds from his battle with [[Megatron (G1)|Megatron]].  Famously, his body turns gray as he dies.  ([[Misconceptions and urban legends about Transformers|Urban legend]] says his body also &#039;&#039;crumbles,&#039;&#039; but no such footage is known to exist.)  Being the first time he died, it was actually unexpected.&lt;br /&gt;
{{-}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===&#039;&#039;Kiss Players&#039;&#039;===&lt;br /&gt;
*Sometime between [[The Transformers: The Movie|2005]] and [[The Transformers (cartoon)|2010]], [[Marissa Faireborn]] revives Optimus using the Galvatron cells in her body. Ultimately, all the cells are put back into Galvatron, and without them, Optimus promptly dies again.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Season 3===&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Optimusg1zombie.jpg|right|200px|thumb|&amp;quot;Mind if I smoke?&amp;quot;]]&lt;br /&gt;
* He returns from the dead twice; first as a zombie under [[Quintesson]] control in &amp;quot;[[Dark Awakening]]&amp;quot; as part of a plan to destroy the Autobots, only to die again when he overcomes the Quintesson control through the power of the [[Matrix of Leadership|Matrix]] and possibly the strength of his will, and sacrifices himself to save the Autobots.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* He then was brought to life again in &amp;quot;[[The Return of Optimus Prime, Part 1]]&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
{{-}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===&#039;&#039;The Headmasters&#039;&#039;===&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Headmasters-primedies.jpg|right|thumb|300px|&amp;quot;...I&#039;m dead.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt; &amp;quot;YES, you are!&amp;quot;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt; &amp;quot;You think that&#039;s funny, Jennings?!&amp;quot;]] &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* In &#039;&#039;[[The Headmasters (cartoon)|The Headmasters]]&#039;&#039;, Prime&#039;s death in &#039;&#039;The Transformers: The Movie&#039;&#039; was sort-of recreated in a flashback montage at the beginning of &amp;quot;[[Four Warriors Come out of the Sky]]&amp;quot;, but not really.  Rather than die while taking down his ultimate nemesis in a one-on-one struggle to the death to defend his city, his comrades, the planet Earth, and freedom itself, he just kind of gets randomly shot while in the middle of an ordinary battle outside of [[Ark (G1)|Autobot Headquarters]], and turns gray.  Nobody else seems to notice this.  It&#039;s not clear that Prime himself notices it.  It&#039;s about the most half-hearted death ever.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Optimus Prime later died again—in another act of self sacrifice, of course—when he walked into [[Vector Sigma]] and tried to bring it back under control directly in &amp;quot;[[Birth of the Fantastic Double Prime]]&amp;quot;. His body turned gray as he died, followed by a (likely only symbolic) scene of him telling [[Hot Rod (G1)|Rodimus Prime]] that it would be his responsibility to keep leading the Autobots and to continue his work, seen as a transparent, light-haloed figure against the sky and heard in third person narration as Rodimus stared into the sky. (Then again, given the [[Birth of the Fantastic Double Prime|proven]] existence of [[Starscream (G1)|gho]][[Alpha Trion (G1)|sts]]...)&lt;br /&gt;
{{-}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===&#039;&#039;Return of Convoy&#039;&#039;===&lt;br /&gt;
*The  [[Battlestars]] managed to restore Optimus&#039;s life with the power of the [[Zodiac]], evolving him into Star Convoy in &#039;&#039;[[The Battlestars (story page)|The Battlestars]]&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===&#039;&#039;Generation 2&#039;&#039;===&lt;br /&gt;
* In the Japanese version of &#039;&#039;Generation 2&#039;&#039;, Optimus Prime was badly wounded by Megatron&#039;s [[fusion cannon]] and almost died, but was resurrected and evolved yet again, this time into [[Laser Rod]] Optimus Prime, by the power of the [[Reconfiguration Matrix]]. {{storylink|G-2 (pack-in comic)|G-2 #13}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Marvel Comics continuity==&lt;br /&gt;
===Generation 1===&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Pmoptimusprimedeath.jpg|right|200px|thumb|&amp;quot;Give me my face!&amp;quot;]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*In &amp;quot;[[Afterdeath!]]&amp;quot;, Prime, after failing to live up to his moral principles while playing a video game, volunteers to be killed.  The [[Autobot]]s launch his funeral bier into space. Fortunately, the creator of the video game, [[Ethan Zachary]], saves a backup copy of Prime&#039;s mind on a [[floppy disk]].  We first meet this virtual Prime sixteen issues later in &amp;quot;[[Pretender to the Throne!]]&amp;quot;.  He gets his new [[Powermaster]] body two issues thereafter, in &amp;quot;[[People Power!]]&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*A previous attempt was made at making virtual Prime a new body in &amp;quot;[[Totaled!]]&amp;quot;. The body &#039;&#039;spontaneously blew up&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*About thirty issues later, Prime sacrifices himself to defeat [[Unicron]], in &amp;quot;[[On the Edge of Extinction!]]&amp;quot;. But he didn&#039;t actually die until &amp;quot;[[Still Life!]]&amp;quot;. However, his Powermaster partner, [[Hi-Q]], survives, and almost immediately begins babbling about how he&#039;s &#039;&#039;really&#039;&#039; Optimus Prime.  This turns out to be true, and the [[Last Autobot]] metamorphoses Hi-Q into Prime (with a new [[Action Master]] body) in [[End of the Road! (US)|the last issue of the original Marvel US series]].&lt;br /&gt;
{{-}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===&#039;&#039;Generation 2&#039;&#039;===&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Swarmoptimus.jpg|right|200px|thumb|Unleashing the light of the Matrix upon a great evil.  Again.]]&lt;br /&gt;
*This Prime wasn&#039;t done dying yet. His adventures continued in the G2 comics, and he died defeating the [[Swarm (G2)|Swarm]] in the final issue of that series, &amp;quot;[[A Rage in Heaven!]]&amp;quot;. The Swarm reconstituted him three pages later (in a body based on his then-current [[Hero (G2)|Hero]] toy).&lt;br /&gt;
{{-}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==IDW Comics continuity==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*In his first battle with the [[Ore-13]] powered Megatron, Optimus was killed. {{storylink|Escalation issue 5}} Or at least, his &#039;&#039;main body&#039;&#039; was: by quickly downloading his consciousness  into [[Combat Deck]] (and then back again), Optimus was able to survive. Being that close to death meant he briefly existed in a limbo state, which got him noticed by [[Nova Prime]] in the [[Dead Universe]]. {{storylink|Escalation issue 6}}&lt;br /&gt;
{{-}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*He then spends the first half of [[All Hail Megatron]] badly damaged and near death. He is revived however when [[Kup (G1)|Kup]] and his crew arrive.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==&#039;&#039;Beast Wars&#039;&#039; cartoon continuity==&lt;br /&gt;
===&#039;&#039;Beast Wars&#039;&#039; cartoon===&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Smelt Prime.JPG|right|200px|thumb|&amp;quot;I&#039;m not quite dead yet!  I feel happy!&amp;quot;]]&lt;br /&gt;
In &#039;&#039;[[Beast Wars (cartoon)|Beast Wars]]&#039;&#039; and &#039;&#039;[[Beast Machines (cartoon)|Beast Machines]]&#039;&#039;, you could mark the end of a season by the near-death experience of one [[Optimus Primal|Optimus]] or [[Optimus Prime (G1)|another]]...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*At [[Other Voices, Part 2|the end of the first season]] of &#039;&#039;Beast Wars&#039;&#039;, [[Optimus Primal]] piloted a bomb-equipped stasis pod in an attempt to destroy the [[Planet Buster]].  Unfortunately, [[Megatron (BW)|Megatron]] had sealed the pod&#039;s hatch, and Optimus blew up with it. [[Coming of the Fuzors (Part 2)|Early in the second season]] (a few hours later as far as the characters were concerned), [[Rhinox (BW)|Rhinox]] managed to unite Optimus&#039;s drifting [[spark]] with a [[blank]] [[protoform]], thus bringing him back to life (and in a new [[Transmetal]] body, too).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*At [[The Agenda (Part III)|the end of second season]], the &#039;&#039;Beast Wars&#039;&#039; Megatron came very close to killing the original Optimus Prime.  But [[Optimal Situation|Prime didn&#039;t &#039;&#039;quite&#039;&#039; die]], so we really shouldn&#039;t count it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===&#039;&#039;Beast Machines&#039;&#039; cartoon===&lt;br /&gt;
*At [[End of the Line|the end of the first season]] of &#039;&#039;Beast Machines&#039;&#039;, Optimus and Megatron had a cataclysmic battle, using the energies of [[Vector Sigma]] and the [[Plasma Energy Chamber]]. This would have destroyed [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]], but Optimus took the warring energies into himself and disintegrated. However, his spark was trapped within the [[Oracle (BM)|Oracle]], and the other [[Maximal]]s convinced him to return to the real world at [[Fallout|the start of second season]].

&lt;br /&gt;
*At [[Endgame Pt. III: Seeds of the Future|the end of the series]], Optimus gave his life to defeat Megatron once and for all, pushing him into the [[technorganic]] core of the planet. In assorted ancillary media ([[Universe (2003 comic)|convention comics]], [[Beast Wars Reborn|text]] [[Alternators|stories]]), he comes back to life yet again.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(Strangely, the end of the third season of &#039;&#039;Beast Wars&#039;&#039; had no Optimus deaths whatsoever! A half-dozen &#039;&#039;[[Depth Charge (BW)|o]][[Tigerhawk|t]][[Dinobot II|h]][[Inferno (BW)|e]][[Quickstrike (BW)|r]][[Rampage (BW)|s]]&#039;&#039; died, but not Optimus.)&lt;br /&gt;

When the cannon&#039;s energy is spent, we see Optimus turn grayish-white, then &#039;&#039;actually&#039;&#039; crumble to bits. A bunch of [[Mini-Con]]s use the [[Matrix of Leadership|Matrix]] to resurrect him [[Miracle|three episodes later]].&lt;br /&gt;

{{Note|Though Optimus Prime doesn&#039;t die in the first [[Transformers (2007)|movie itself]], he does consider fusing the [[AllSpark (Movie)|All Spark]] into his own spark, an action that would destroy them both, if necessary to keep it out of Decepticon hands.}}&lt;br /&gt;

In Decepticon mode storyline, [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]] was beaten to the ground, and as he crawled for the [[AllSpark (Movie)|All Spark]], [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]] smashed his head with his flail ... poor Prime, he gets the most violent death. {{Storylink|Transformers The Game (console)}}&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Perhaps the most brutal Prime death to date. To protect [[Sam Witwicky]], Optimus Prime engaged in a brutal battle with [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]], [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]]  and [[Grindor (ROTF)|Grindor]]. Despite &#039;&#039;literally&#039;&#039; disarming Starscream and destroying Grindor, Optimus is run-through from behind by Megatron and killed. While dead, Optimus&#039; body is depicted with faded colours in reference to his history of turning grey upon death. This event causes Sam to follow the symbols the All Spark sliver placed in his mind to find the ancient [[Matrix of Leadership#Live-action film series|Matrix of Leadership]], the only thing that could restore life to Optimus. Unfortunately, it crumbled into dust upon touching it in the [[Tomb of the Primes]] on the border between [[Egypt]] and [[Jordan]]. During the climactic battle in Egypt between [[NEST]] and the Decepticons, Sam was seemingly killed by Megatron, only to be taken to another plane of existence where he met [[Seven Primes|the Primes who died]] to prevent [[The Fallen]] from achieving victory, and they bestowed upon him the true Matrix, which allowed Sam to revive Optimus. {{Storylink|Revenge of the Fallen (film)}}&lt;br /&gt;

During their final battle on earth, [[Megatron (Animated)|Megatron]] fired a devastating blast from his [[fusion cannon]] which was super charged by Starscream&#039;s [[AllSpark]]-fragment-powered head before driving one of his swords straight through Optimus&#039; chest and [[spark]]. However this, somehow, did not completely kill him as his cries of justice and heroics caused his spark to shine and made a reaction from the shard in Starscream&#039;s head, which flew at Optimus giving him new power and a new body. {{storylink|The Cool Episode Final}}&lt;br /&gt;
