Hound was among the Autobots who accompanied Optimus Prime to Earth in response to a signal from Bumblebee alerting them to the presence of the All Spark on the planet. After being informed by Bumblebee's human companion Sam Witwicky that the lost Decepticon leader Megatron was also on Earth, Prime dispatched Hound and his close friend Trailbreaker to investigate the Arctic cavern in which Megatron's body was originally uncovered. Taking some drones with them, Hound and Trailbreaker discovered that the Decepticons Shockwave and Thundercracker had had the same idea. As Megatron's body had already been moved by Sector Seven anyway, Hound and Trailbreaker had nothing to lose by planting bombs in the cavern, hoping to entomb the two Decepticons in ice. Unfortunately, the two villains escaped at the last minute, having discovered that Megatron had brought an army of drones to Earth with him to help search for the All Spark—drones which were currently lying dormant around the Earth.
Shockwave brought Megatron's drone army back on line soon after, and they attacked the Autobots en route to Hoover Dam. Ironhide and Ratchet forced the origin of the drones from a defeated Thundercracker, and Wheeljack quickly concocted a virus that would send them back into sleep mode. Hound and Trailbreaker were charged with getting the virus transmitted into a satellite so that it could be broadcast to all the drones at once, and they broke into a communications center belonging to "The Corporation" (apparently a Sector Seven front company) to use their communications dish. Decepticon drones dogged their every step, blowing up the first dish they found and forcing them to move to the complex's airstrip to find another. Unfortunately, the drones cut off the power supply to this dish, requiring Hound to power it up manually while Trailbreaker uploaded the virus. "Uploading the virus", for some inexplicably bizarre reason, involved Trailbreaker violently attacking the dish control panel, causing both it and the dish to explode, hurling Hound's body across the complex. The virus was successfully transmitted to the drones, knocking them offline, but at the cost of Hound's life. With the last of his strength, Hound asked Trailbreaker if the plan worked, but he died in Trailbreaker's arms before his friend could answer.
