* GreatAccomplishmentWeakCredibility: Rimmer gives Captain Hollister a startlingly accurate report on potential drive plate malfunctions. However, Hollister is immediately suspicious given that Rimmer has made a name for himself as an incompetent dolt who constantly fails the astronavigation exam. He's right to be dubious, as it turns out: Rimmer is using files taken from Starbug's computers to make himself appear cleverer than he really is. [[spoiler: Unfortunately for Rimmer, Hollister takes the opportunity to drug him and put him in the VirtualRealityInterrogation with the rest of the Dwarfers - though this isn't found out until part 3.]]
