Also, now he's suspecting that Telford's having an affair with his wife, and it's distracting him.  Kind of hypocritical of him, given that he'd aleady had an affair with TJ.That could be brewing trouble as well.  I know there's not much entertainment on the ship, so this sort of thing's inevitable, but sleeping around if going to cause more conflict, especially when these guys are military.Yeah, I would write it off as different situations.In that case, then Young should pretty much say that Eli's job is to assist Rush in getting the ship up and operational (since Rush doesn't want to work with the other scientists, and none of them seem to be able to grow a pair and put up with him).  Then tell Wray and Scott that Eli's also there to check up on what Rush isn't telling everyone else; they're the only two besides Young who really need to know what Eli's doing.  However, I still say that shouldn't be taking up all of his time and that he should do some of the physical training with everyone else.  First of all, being in better shape is good for his mind as well; so it can help him with learning what he needs to know, and to be more alert as to what Rush is doing.  Second, he volunteers to visit some of the worlds they're going to, but he really does need to get into better shape, just look at how he was straggling when they were at the desert planet.I don't know if Telford would do that just to spite Young, especially since he seems to know about Young and TJ's affair.  Telford comes off a bit as pretty hardass on discipline.  She might, especially after making up with Young in Telford's body.I get the impression you don't like the dentist.  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" /></blockquote>
