* ClosestThingWeGot: When Janet is trying to work out how the other personalities ended up inside Daniel, Tryan is the personality most helpful to her efforts; while he's only a second-rank engineer, he at least understands the science behind the stasis pods and how they work, even if he can't speculate on how the current situation happened.
