'''Scalpel''', known as "the '''Doctor'''", looks harmless enough with his big inquisitive eyes. But beware—in the world of the Transformers, things are not what they seem! Scalpel has vast databases of anatomical and mechanical knowledge, being familiar with most species in the galaxy. He's extremely adept at getting to the root of the problem and can handily disassemble most technological devices. Unfortunately when he goes to put them back together, he always has a few parts left over. This has left most of the Decepticons reluctant to come to him for care, in spite of his duties as their field medic.

Scalpel was transported to the [[Laurentian Abyss]] by [[Ravage (ROTF)|Ravage]] and [[Long Haul (ROTF)|four]] [[Mixmaster (ROTF)|of]] [[Rampage (ROTF)|the]] [[Constructicon (ROTF)|Constructicons]]. Using parts "donated" by the smallest Construcicon and the [[All Spark]] shard stolen by Ravage, he rebuilt [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]] into a more powerful, and very much alive, form. Later, at a factory in the same city as [[Sam Witwicky]]'s university, Scalpel was ordered to examine Sam, in hopes of finding out what he had learned from the All Spark information downloaded into his brain. Using several ''extremely'' invasive techniques, Scalpel deduced that Sam's mind was definitely full of handy dandy information. And the best way to get said information was to examine Sam's brain... while it was laid out on the table. Scalpel's attempt was interrupted by the timely arrival of [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]] and [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]].
