8* EscapePod: 17 of the crew will use the shuttle as one, hoping that the only 'Goldilocks' planet in the star system is habitable.
9* FaceDeathWithDignity: Most of the ''Destiny'' crew accept their fate, but there are exceptions like Sergeant Spencer.
10* LotteryOfDoom: Young holds one, to determine who will escape the doomed ship in the remaining shuttle.
