What Prevents Her From Being Pure Good?[]

  • Even though she subverts most of her corrupting qualities, she is still way too lethal for Pure Good, having plenty of lethal moments such as nearly brutally killing Starscream (though he deserved it and also proudly talked about killing her partner in front of her moments prior) and blindlessly charging into combat whenever Airachnid is involved, which once resulted in her getting captured and having Starscream save her.
  • Has some jerkish moments such as getting in an argument with Bulkhead when Optimus lost his memories, disobeying orders to race Vince (though she only did this once) and then berating Jack and Bee for doing it themselves, and rejecting Smokescreen’s apologies for endangering Jack even if it wasn’t the former’s intent and he learned his lesson regardless.
