After conversing with Arcee over radio-link, telling her about receiving a boot clamp for being illegally parked, Cliffjumper discovered an energon deposit. He was attacked by many Vehicons and then taken prisoner. He was taken aboard the Decepticon ship and brought before Starscream. Noting it had been a while since the two had last met, Cliffjumper asked where Starscream's master was, and Starscream stuck his clawed fist into Cliffjumper's chest, killing him. Starscream then ordered his troops to clean up the body.
The remaining Earthbound Autobots arrived on the scene too late, and Ratchet confirmed that Cliffjumper's spark had gone offline. Finding one of Cliffjumper's horns in the dirt, Arcee took the piece of her friend to the Autobots' memorial service. The loss of Cliffjumper hit her the hardest, and she stormed off amidst their eulogies, preferring to honor Cliffjumper's memory by keeping Earth safe.

When Starscream was an Autobot prisoner, he let it slip that he killed Cliff which sparked Arcee to attack him. However, Starscream sneakingly attacked, wounding her. Starscream then began to gloat about Cliffjumper's death before he started to gloat about Tailgate's death after he learned of his death. Arcee eventually got the upper hand on Starscream, but she saw Bumblebee and realized that Autobots were not killers and that settling scores would not let her move on. Partners
