In contrast, [[Talbot Molossus|Talbot]] and [[the Hydrant]] were largely useless, with Talbot acting as team leader and the Hydrant as his moral support; [[Doctor Know (925th Universe)|Doctor Know]], thanks to [[Doctor Know's computer|his magical computer]], was more capable, but he also frequently deserted his duties. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Good Crieff - The Tribulations of the Scottish Division (short story)|Good Crieff - The Tribulations of the Scottish Division]]'') She maintained a vague long-distance friendship with Jenny Over-There herself, with the two sending each other funny pictures with some regularity.
