(Sorry, they're literally the worst written part of the whole series. :P)

Except, so far, he's not really had any conflict except being forced to recite the code. There was no reason for that scene at all. It was another scene that looked 'cool' or something, that didn't actually add anything to the season. He's dark mysterious look came to nothing. It was simply there to make us worry about him stabbing the motley crew in the back, but then never put him in the position to do so. Gah. That scene pisses me off the more I think about it.

Kate isn't too far behind them though, as far us useless badly written plot device.
