HELP ME!
~ Tessa pathetically screaming for help, highlighting her status as a boring damsel in distress

Tessa Yeager is one of the two deuteragonists (alongside Bumblebee) of Transformers: Age of Extinction.

She is portrayed by Nicola Peltz.

What Makes Her a Scrappy?[]

  • She is oversexualized, with Cade Yeager’s friend even making an inappropriate comment about her.
    • This is made worse due to her age, as she is 17 years old but is subject to sexualization repeatedly
  • Her romantic relationship with Shane Dyson is portrayed as a good thing despite being textbook grooming.
  • Like the latter mentioned above, she never does anything heroic apart from being nice and helping Optimus once.
  • While Cade is a bad person, Tessa is a horrible daughter and a hypocrite who accuses him of ruining her life for petty reasons.
  • She has far too much spotlight for a character with less personality than the average generic doomsday villain, as she steals screentime from more important characters like Lockdown or the members of KSI.
  • When Galvattron starting attacking and she ended separated from Cade and thus in danger, she screamed “help me” instead of yelling Cade’s name, which isn’t very helpful and highlights the films writing issues and how she was only written to be a damsel that served as nothing more as eye candy (despite the character being a minor).
    • While she was clearly in distress, nobody would randomly say “HELP ME” in such a dangerous situation, especially when her dad was the only person there who was capable and willing to save her since Shane didn’t seem to care and the autobots were trying to stop Galvatron.
  • According to Heroes Wiki (which she was removed from for not being actually heroic), her only catchphrase is "Dad," which is pretty lazy.
  • Absolutely no one cared when she didn't return for The Last Knight as she wasn’t important to the plot in anyway.
