We've actually known Jeeves is his name for a while now, tho.
He's just introduced as "The Desmond Buttler" here because only his role to Damian is relevant, specially when featured next to the other two, who are actually unnamed.
It's nice to see Damian's love of history is genuine and not just as a means for earning Stellas.
Wonder if Ewen's photo of the flower might get referenced later.

Twilight could be in this very room. He could be me, he could be you, he could even be ...

With a '0', not an 'O'I actually did think Franky got killed there for a second. Them saying that the SSS has cracked the network of informants he’s a member of and is picking them off one by one definitely seemed like it could be setting up a Maes Hughes-style Shoo Out the Clowns moment. It’ll certainly be important to Loid’s mission though.

For a guy with no name that we've never seen before, Damian's butler sure sticks out. Maybe he's going to matter individually later (enough to get a name), maybe he's just showing the Desmond family have some badasses in their pocket. What I'm really curious is if the butler's advise to Damian reflects Donovan's words... or is the butler just allowed to say whatever he thinks is right because Donovan doesn't care?
Funny that we saw almost as many military vehicles in this chapter as that long war flashback. That's a very distinct helicopter design, so maybe it'll be used in the future—not necessarily with any connection to the Desmonds.
