Carly was seen buying some food from a street vendor with her family. Transform and Roll Out

When Powell Motorworks released "The Bulkhead", a vehicle cashing in on the popularity of the Autobot it was named after, Spike and Carly bought one, possibly in preparation for their growing family as Carly was about four months pregnant. The family somehow confused their car with the Autobot Bulkhead while loading a huge widescreen TV into him, distracting Bulkhead from the stakeout he was trying to conduct. The Insincerest Form of Flattery

By the time of Carly's next encounter with the Transformers, she was heavily pregnant. While Carly was in labor, the family's car broke down on the way to the hospital. Ratchet was out learning people skills at the time, and she and Spike had the misfortune to think he was a real ambulance. She and Spike hopped on in, and Ratchet took off at speed. Upon asking him to slow down, they discovered there was no driver and they'd hitched a lift in an Autobot who was about as sympathetic to Carly's current situation as a bad-tempered giant alien robot would be to an organic giving birth. Understandably, Carly started to panic.

Wreck-Gar was out and about "helping" people that day, and Ratchet nearly collided with a security van. Carly and Spike were promptly ejected while they watched Ratchet engage, and Carly was nearly crushed by the axle of a large vehicle. Carly, being classified as life, was then given the offer of being protected by Wreck-Gar, who had just decided he wanted to help them. When Wreck-Gar left, Ratchet offered them a lift to the hospital again, but Carly decided she'd prefer to call a cab. Can't blame her, really. Garbage In, Garbage Out

Carly and newborn Nancy Witwicky were hanging out at the Burger Bot... but not always together! If it hadn't been a virtual reality, she could be brought up on child neglection charges. Human Error, Part I

She and her family were seen hypnotized along with every other human in Detroit. Human Error, Part II

Notes

• In the credits for "Garbage In, Garbage Out", Carly is listed simply as "Wife".
• Carly does not appear pregnant in "Transform And Roll Out". So it can be assumed that there is at least five to six months between then and "Garbage In, Garbage Out".
• On her model sheet, the character is spelled "Carlee", though in The Arrival #4 her name is spelled with the more traditional spelling. The unusual spelling on the model sheet is more than likely derived from Dorling Kindersley's Transformers: The Ultimate Guide, which misspelled her Generation 1 counterpart's name in this fashion.
• A scale guide featuring herself, Daniel and Spike is labeled "size comp - Witwicky Family".
• The family's names were subsequently confirmed in the DVD commentary track for "Garbage In, Garbage Out".
• Carly was designed by Brianne Drouhard, following notes from Derrick J. Wyatt.
