The [[Archon]] added one LIC member to the hand-selected people on the mission: Agent Brian Kirkpatrick, who alone ever got inside the Hesperus facility. During the mission Kirkpatrick, an aggressive counterterrorism specialist, frequently butts heads with Kelswa who tries to avoid bloodshed and is deathly afraid of the imposing BattleMechs. The situation comes to a head when Kirkpatrick, assigned to Kelswa's team, unsuccessfully tries to convince Kelswa that they should abandon the idea of escaping on the DropShuttle. It turns out that the shuttle was deemed a security risk, as it might be traced to the Lyran Commonwealth, and demolition charges eventually destroy the shuttle to maintain the impression of a genuine crash - killing four of Kelswa's men aboard it and over a hundred civilian helpers nearby. Kelswa and Kirkpatrick come to blows over this, yet in the end it is Kirkpatrick who saves the frozen Kelswa from being trampled by an approaching 'Mech.
