"Hi, good-looking, get sick here often?"

Arcee was a teacher on Cybertron and an Autobot intelligence officer during the War. Originally intended to be the commander of Omega Supreme, she carried crucial access codes for his activation. TransWarped

At one point, Arcee was damaged in the line of duty. Ratchet repaired her and tried to take her to safety, but the two were attacked by Lockdown, who had been hired by the Decepticons to bring her in.

Held prisoner within Lockdown's ship, Arcee insisted that Ratchet use his electromagnetic pulse tool to wipe the codes from her head. Lockdown overheard this and tried to stop the pair, but in the struggle the device overloaded and sent out a powerful burst. In the confusion, Ratchet and Arcee were somehow able to escape... but the EMP blast had wiped Arcee's memory clean. The Thrill of the Hunt

Well this looks familiar.

Arcee was later taken to Cybertron, where Ultra Magnus made Ratchet perform open-processor surgery on her to obtain the access codes for Omega Supreme's activation. TransWarped

Well, this is just perfect! You wake up after a few thousnad years and you have no idea where you are!

Arcee never awoke from her comatose state, and was stored for the subsequent four-million-plus years in the Cybertron Central Infirmary. When the Decepticons needed to acquire the command codes to "restart" Omega Supreme into a dreadnought loyal to them, both Shockwave and Ratchet reasoned that their best chance for this would be from Arcee herself. The two of them battled over Arcee and, thanks to the blundering interference of Sentinel Prime, Shockwave won—abducting Arcee and escaping with her onto Omega Supreme, which Megatron then commanded to transwarp back to Earth's solar system. Perceptor was certain that Arcee's mental damage was totally irreversible... but apparently he forgot to tell Arcee herself, who soon woke up, calling for Ratchet. This Is Why I Hate Machines
