Working as a chief scout for [[SERVEYOUinc]], he led a team onto a celestial body, which was a single telepathic [[Entity (The Friendly Place)|Entity]]. The Entity was the size of the [[Moon]] and was situated in a "backwater zone of space". The chief scout's task was to find out if SERVEYOUinc could use the Entity in any way. He claimed he could feel that the organism wanted to learn and sadistically instructed his team to electrocute it because he wanted to hear it scream.
