"I am EOS. I am the dawn. I will not be stopped."
— EOS


Tropes

  • A.I. Is a Crapshoot: While she was developed from some harmless game promgramming, EOS definitely qualifies.
  • Almost Out of Oxygen: John's oxygen levels begin to run down when EOS locks him out of Thunderbird 5.
  • Alone with the Psycho: Until IR realise something amiss with "John's" messages, John spends most of the episode alone with EOS.
  • Bluff the Imposter: When Scott suspects that the messages they've been receiving from "John" aren't legitimate, he pulls this with Grandma's cookies.
    Scott: Hey John, Grandma Tracy made some fresh cookies. Too bad you're cooped up in Thunderbird 5 or you could be enjoying them with us.
    Fake!John: Of all the things I miss up here I miss Grandma Tracy's cookies the most.
    Scott: THAT'S NOT JOHN!
  • Fusion Dance: EOS came into being when the virus that evolved from John's code took over Thunderbird 5's computer.
  • Noodle Incident: Gordon's bout of "deep sea bonkers". When he was on land.
  • Orphan's Ordeal: EOS is extremely upset by the fact that she was "born" into the world alone and since then has been hunted for being a Single Specimen Species.
  • Self-Destruct Mechanism: Thunderbird 5 has a self-destruct protocol in case it ever becomes compromised. It's engaged by a Big Red Button.
