  • Canada, Eh?
  • Happily Married: Jason rushes to his wife's defense when Jon immobilizes her

  • Shiny New Australia: Sam was apparantly promised New York for her services.
  • The Cavalry: they later act as this for some of the other characters

The evil twins of Stephen and Jon. Cheney's most trusted henchmen, these two act as heralds when Cheney begins his assault on an unsuspecting universe.

Jason Jones: You *cough* bastard!
