"Tell Abby and Connor to stay out of trouble."

―Stephen Hart's last words^[src]

Stephen James Hart (born ca. 1975) is Nick Cutter’s lab technician and right-hand man and was one of his and Helen Cutter's college students. He is moody and cold, often coming across as aloof. And for a man that claims to have no interest in fashion he has a suspiciously large collection of GQ in his loo.

He has a very strong bond with Cutter (However, he isn't afraid to stand up to him when he wants to), a big brother relationship with Connor, and, though he keeps his emotions in check, a fondness for Abby. He also has strong feelings for Helen, though his feelings seem to sway from time to time.

He becomes a member of the ARC team and is the hunter/tracker and marksman of the group. On many occasions, Stephen has proven his loyalty to the team, as well as his bravery, putting his life at risk to save his colleagues. At the end of Series 2 Stephen sacrificed himself to save Nick, Helen and the rest of the world.

BioEdit

Pre-AnomaliesEdit

Stephen became a junior fencing champion and a junior shooting Olympic prospect in high school. Because of this, he was extremely fit, running an average of thirty miles a week. He also gained lightning reactions and extreme physical fitness. And if that wasn't enough he developed into a seriously good dancer.

However, Stephe

n strongly felt that humans were killing the world around them, and he took a job as a wildlife conservationist as a young man. He went to university and his teachers were Professor Nick Cutter and his wife Helen. During this period Stephen had a much-regretted affair with Helen. After completing his studies, he took a job as Nick's lab assistant at the Central Metropolitan University Department of Evolutionary Zoology.

Eight years before Stephen joined the anomaly team Helen suddenly disappeared, with no explanation. This leaves Cutter grieving and the whole world assuming her dead. Stephen began to grow closer to Cutter, and the two became firm friends.

At some point he gains a girlfriend named Alison, who, a couple of months before he joins the anomaly team, goes and stays in the Amazon Rainforest for some time to research tropical diseases. It is not known if he was going out with this girl at the time of his affair with Helen.

Episode 1.1Edit

"Pick on someone your own size."

―Stephen draws the Gorgonopsid's attention

Cutter and Stephen were at the Central Metropolitan University when they were approached by Connor Temple, one of Cutter's students. In his lab Cutter told them about the Sarcopterygian, which he says is inexplicable in modern evolutionary tems, much to Stephen's amusement. When Connor mentioned there was a creature sighting at the Forest of Dean, Cutter, Stephen and Connor decided to investigate. Along the way they came across a truck that appears to have been attacked and thought at first he thought it was a hoax, Stephen finally decided it was a very difficult one to pull off if it was. Stephen then told Connor that Helen had gone missing without a trace in the Forest of Dean and that was why Cutter had agreed to come alone. While preparing to go into the forest Connor showed Stephen his database on prehistoric creatures, which impressed Stephen but also thought it was sad. They met up with Home Office member Claudia Brown whom Cutter had met in the bar and was joining their search. While searching for the unknown creature Stephen used his skills to try and track it, and came across the carcass of a dead cow in a tree. That night they found a Scutosaurus, as well as Abby Maitland, and Connor and Stephen kept an eye on the large creature while the others took care of some business. When they returned they scared the Scutosaurus so that they could see where it thought it was safe and came across an anomaly. As Home Office scientists arrived, Stephen comforted Abby, and admitted he felt the same way about the whole situation as her and assured her that the Coelurosauravus named Rex would be alright. While the others went to the Home Office, Stephen and

Connor remained in the Forest of Dean to look for the predator, since the Scutosaurus was a herbivore. Stephen found the Gorgonopsid's trail andwent after it on his own. Arriving at a school, Stephen risked his life to distract a Gorgonopsid and save Ben and his teacher when it got inside, and while fighting back with a fire extinguisher he was knocked out by the predator as it tried to escape. Cutter tried to call him but couldn't reach him. After the anomaly closed, the Gorgonopsid attacked the people around the site, and Stephen came out of nowhere and drove the car into it. The Gorgonopsid was only stunned, but as it tried to get back on its feet, Stephen finished it off with a gun Cutter had tossed him. Later at the Home Office Stephen departed with Cutter and the others after Cutter had voiced his suspicions the crisis wasn't over.

Episode 1.2Edit

Stephen and Cutter were going over Helen's research to see if she had known about the anoamlies, even though Stephen was sure she would have told Cutter. Abby later sent him a text telling him that she and Connor were investigating what appeared to be another anomaly incursion, and after telling Cutter they went to save the pair from a "creature" which turned out to be a hoax caused by Connor's friends. Cutter then fired Connor from the team. When a real new creature attack was reported, Stephen, Cutter and Abby went to investigate an anomaly which opened in the London Underground. While down there they were attacked by an Arthropleura. Cutter managed to distract it while Stephen and Abby escaped. Stephen wanted to go back and rescue him, but Claudia held him back, and because they couldn't identify the creature Stephen suggested they get Connor back, and while Claudia arranged that Stephen recklessly went back to save Cutter. Using a makeshift flamethrower as a weapon, he kept the Arthropleura at bay while he searched, however it was sucked through the anomaly and Stephen was attacked. Lying on the ground and dying from the giant centipede's venom, he saw Helen and she asked him to pass a message to Cutter. When Cutter managed to escape the network of tunnels, Stephen told him Helen was alive and was waiting on the other side of the anomaly. While being loaded into an ambulance Stephen to asked Abby out for dinner before he passed out. The team managed to get a sample of the Arthropleura venom to synthesize an antidote to administer to Stephen. Stephen later came to and started recovering slowly in the hospital. When Claudia arrived and asked about Helen, Stephen said he did not remember anything that happened in the underground after being bitten by the Arthropleura, including seeing Helen, which he assumed was just a delusion. Abby asked if he remembered everything else he'd said, but Stephen didn't remember asking Abby out and asked if he'd said something important, but Abby told him he hadn't.

Episode 1.3Edit

After recovering from being bitten by the Arthropleura, Abby and Connor visited him as he was leaving the hospital. Connor told him that he never thought about one of the team getting killed until now but Stephen jokingly points out that he must have been devastated. Abby, dresed to impress because Stephen asked her out the other day, offered Stephen a lift home but Stephen, suffering from some memory loss, told them his girlfriend was picking him up, who had been away. After checking out of the hospital, he and the team go to the scene of another anomaly incursion. Connor said to Stephen that he gave an impression of being single, Stephen thought Connor was chatting him up and told him that he wasn't his type and dived in the water, unaware that Connor was referring to Abby. When the

anoamly had moved to the Queen Mary Reservoir, Stephen and Cutter went with a Special Forces diving team to search the reservoir. The Mosasaur, which had been beaten by Abby and Connor, retreated through the anomaly and a diver is stranded on the other side of the anomaly. Stephen then stood amongst the grieving soldiers.

Later at the Home Office, he saw camera footage of the previous anomaly, which brings back memories of when he'd been poisoned. He confronted Cutter about Helen still being alive, and learned from him it wasn't the first time she'd appeared. He told Cutter that he should tell the others, because she'd been important to him too, but it wasn't his decision. Later at the third anomaly recursion, he told Abby he'd got his memory back and had asked her out because he liked her, but Abby was hurt and said she'd forgotten about the whole thing.

Lester soon learned of Helen being alive and decides to send Cutter through to bring her back. Stephen helped Cutter prepare for the journey through the anomaly and anxiously awaited his return. Stephen pulled Cutter through after his time had run out. After he was resuscitated, Claudia sent Captain Ryan and his men through the anomaly leaving Stephen clueless on why she was sending them through. He later watched as Helen was taken away by Lester's men.

Episode 1.4Edit

"You idiot. You've turned her into bait!"

―Stephen isn't happy about Abby being in danger

While Helen was being interogated, the team were dealing with what at first seemed to be another creature attack, although it was only a python. Later Stephen showed up at Abby's flat to talk to her, only to find her and Connor down to their underwear because of the broken thermostat, but assumed they were together. He then told them that Helen had begun talking and they met up with the others, who were led to another anomaly by Helen. Helen managed to escape through the anomaly with Ryan following her and Stephen also going, but

they found themselves in a Spaghetti Junction of anomalies, and because of the futility of being able to find her were forced to go back. Soon after their return a flock of Dodos came through and Stephen helped catch them and send them back, with the esception of one that had died mysteriously. Stephen helped Cutter and Abby with its autopsy, but when a parasite emerged Stephen trapped it in a jar where it died. Connor soon reported that two of his friends had taken one of the Dodos and one had been infected by a parasite. Stephen and Cutter searched for Tom at hospitals, but eventually decided to ask Duncan what he thought Tom would do. They learned from Duncan that the Dodo had swallowed a tracking device and that Tom would probably follow the signal to the Dodo and Abby, who was doing another autopsy and was furious that she was now bait. Eventually they cornered Duncan at the football stadium, and Abby was rescued and Tom died in Connor's arms.

Episode 1.5Edit

Stephen was helping Cutter search a golf course for an anomaly where a golfer had been attcked, but were unable to find it until Cutter noticed it was in the air. Realising it was an aerial predator, Stephen scanned the skies until he caught sight of a Pteranodon swooping in towards them and pushed Cutter out of the way, saying it wasn't going to be so hard to find it now. As they observed the circling pterosaur, Stephen noticed Connor on the fairway and realised it was looking for lunch and tried to warn Connor to get out of the way. After it was revealed Rex had been with Connor and the Pteranodon had flown off, Stephen pointed out that it needed to roost and wouldn't go far. Satellite scans eventually found it and Stephen, Cutter and Claudia went after it ahead of the soldiers, and Stephen loaded a tranquilliser gun, since Cutter wanted it alive and didn't think it had killed the golfer and argued with Claudia on doing so. On the roof, Stephen took off his red shirt to help lure it closer, telling Claudia she owed him since she didn't have to take off hers, and after two failed attempts Stephen managed to bring it down. It was transported back to the gold course, and while waiting for it to wake up so that they could send it back through, Stephen tasted its dung to see what it had been eating and learned Cutter was right and that it hadn't killed the golfer. After the real culprits were dealt with Stephen helped free the Pteranodon and send it back through the anomaly.

Episode 1.6Edit

Stephen helped search the Forest of Dean when the anoamly reopened but found nothing. He was later at the university when he felt someone's pressence behind him and found no one there until Helen showed up behind him, and Helen had something to talk about. Over a cold beer she wanted him to arrange a meeting with Cutter and Lester to discuss the disappearance of three people. Stephen realised it was a creature, but Helen would not elaborate, and as she left she kissed him, telling him she missed it and he sarcastically said he was touched. Convincing Lester to go along with it, Stephen was present as Helen revealed a predator from the future had come through the Permian anomaly and was on a rampage, and after talking with Connor learned that Abby's boss and a lion were both missing and came to the conclusion the predator was at the Wellington Zoo and went to find Abby. He and Abby were appraoched by the predator but it was scared off by the Special Forces. He helped try to fight it as they searched, but it evaded them too easily. As the team discussed what they should do, Connor realised it was a future bat using echolocation to ense their movements and went off on his own to find an oscilloscope, but Stephen arrived and shot the creature before it could kill him or Abby. In their third attempt to find its lair, they came to the animal crates storage sged and found it had given birth, and as it attacked Cutter took Stephen's gun and killed the parent. It was soon decided to send a group into the Permian to find the future anomaly and secure it before more predators arrived. Stephen watched Cutter, Helen and Ryan go through with the infants, and soon Connor learned from the lab that the dead predator was a male, and Stephen feared the mother was still out there, narrowly missing seeing go through the anomaly. Soon Cutter and Helen returned from their failed mission, and Cutter had decided not to allow anyone else to go through. Helen, however, decided to break his new rule and revealed that she had once had an affair with Stephen in an atempt to get him to go with her since she didn't want to be alone and as Cutter no longer felt anything for her. Cutter was furious at Stephen and despite Helen's unspoken offer, Stephen told her he'd forgotten what a bitch she was and stayed while Helen left. Cutter soon asked about Claudia, but Stephen nor anyone else had heard of her, leading Cutter to realise the timeline had changed.

Episode 2.1Edit

Stephen and Connor held Cutter back as he tried to go back through the anomaly as it closed. The team then headed back to the ARC, the team's base in the new timeline to have a rest. Later, they learned from Oliver Leek that a new creature sighting had been reported in a shopping centre and they drove off to investigate. When they arrived at the mall, Stephen and the others (except Connor) armed themselves with tranquiliser guns. Once inside, Stephen tried to get Cutter to talk to him as they searched for the anomaly, hoping for his friend to forgive him for his affair with Helen, but Cutter didn't want to give Stephen the satisfaction. The team headed to the security room to indentify the creature through the surveilance cameras. After finding the creature was a raptor, Stephen and Cutter soon found the anomaly in the bowling alley and began looking for the raptor. Cutter insisted that the creatures be returned alive to prevent the timeline altering again, much to Stephen and the team's dismay. Stephen and the others were soon startled by what they though was another creature, but was actually a cleaner who apparently had not been evacuated. Stephen and Cutter set off the search for the raptor. While searching a laser tag arena, Stephen was pinned down by the dinosaur and pleaded for Cutter to shoot it. However, he didn't and the raptor was scared off by the arena noises. Stephen didn't believe Cutter when he said the gun jammed and thought he was just going to let him die but Cutter told him that if he wanted Stephen dead, he'd have shot him himself. They soon encountered the raptor again and Stephen tried shooting it, only to learn the gun was jammed. After fixing the problem he managed to tranquilise the raptor. Stephen apologised for not believing Cutter and for having his affair with Helen, and Cutter forgave him. They set a trap for the other raptor they suspected was running around by amplifying the baby raptor's (which Connor managed to tranquilise) cries. However after the raptor cannabilised the younger dinosaur and Abby distracted it, Stephen decided they would have to kill it against Cutter's wishes. Stephen didn't believe the timeline had changed, but agreed only to kill the creature if he had to. The raptor escaped and the two of them had to lure it back inside the mall with motorbikes. However, after the raptor was lured back in, it hitched a ride on the lift Stephen and Cutter were on and surprised them by jumping out and nearly attacking them. The two were at its mercy before Connor brought it down with a tranquilizer gun. Cutter insisted on taking the raptors through the anomaly by himself, but Stephen suspected he wasn't going to come back and went after him. Stephen managed convince Cutter to return by telling him no matter how many times

the timeline changed, he still might never get Claudia Brown back. The anomaly began closing and while running back to get back through Stephen was attacked by one of the raptor's which held onto his foot as the others pulled him through the anomaly. Fortunately he was all the way through when it closed, and the raptor's head was severed. After heading back to the ARC, Stephen was present with the rest of the team at their introduction to the new PR person, Jenny Lewis.

Episode 2.2Edit

Stephen was at the ARC when the team's new PR, Jenny Lewis, was introduced, and wasn't happy that they had someone else to answer to. He later returned to his flat to find a wounded Helen. Stephen reluctantly helped her with her wounds, and soon recieved a text telling him of a new anomaly. Despite her hope the pair could still be friends and ordered Helen to be gone by the time he got back. Upon arriving at the location he decided not to tell Cutter about Helen. While searching the building they came across a foul-smelling fog and helped rescue a firewoman from giant Worms Cutter suspected were from a pre-Cambrian time period. Continuing to search for the anomaly, Stephen got lost in the fog and set the alarm on his watch to draw the worms' attention from him as he entered an elevator shaft. He called Cutter to tell him he'd found his own way up and began to climb the ladder rapidly as the elevator rose, narrowly avoiding being crushed. While trapped on the floor Stephen took down some worms and awaited help. Soon Cutter arrived as the fog began to clear. However the worms began to spawn and Stephen and the others tried to prevent them from burrowing beneath their skin before the fire sprinklers were activated. Stephen wondered if the anomalies were a challenge for humanity and if they should stop fighting the creatures and face the anomalies instead, but Cutter dismissed his idea. Stephen returned to flat and found that Helen had left as he'd asked.

Episode 2.3Edit

"How many Valeries' are there gonna be before we start telling people what's going on?"

―Stephen begins to question keeping the anomalies secret

Stephen was present as Connor unveiled his new anomaly detector, but soon a creature attack was reported. While preparing to search the Blue Sky park for what was suspected to be a giant cat, Stephen recieved a text from Helen thanking him for his help however he didn't reply. Stephen found a set of tracks and told the others, however it had doubled back on them and they lost it. During the night Stephen and the others searched the nearby forest using infrared imagers, and came across park ranger Valerie Irwin, whose car seemed to have broken down. Stephen offered to take her back to her place, and along the way gave hints that there were things going on with the creature the public weren't meant to know but didn't get specific. He later heard the park manager screaming and spotted the creature, a Smilodon, on the train tracks, but Valerie distracted him and allowed it to get away. She pleaded for Stephen not to leave her on her own, so he called the others about the attack as he took her home. The next day after a trap had failed to secure the Smilodon a body was uncovered and deduced to have been done by the cat, meaning the anomaly

had been open a while. Jenny had gone to arrest a farmer who used to keep lions, and Stephen, Abby and Connor arrivied in time to keep her from getting killed, however the farmer had no idea what the sabre-tooth was. Cutter called the group when he learned Valerie had been hiding the Smilodon for years, and Stephen shot the big cat took later after it had killed Valerie. Cutter accused Stephen of telling her false information which Stephen denied, but said he'd wished he'd told her the truth.

Episode 2.4Edit

Stephen, Cutter and Jenny were looking into the disappearance of a teenager who had gone missing near where an anomaly had opened, and he and Cutter searched the drains leading to the canal, but were unable to find anything, only hearing a creature singing. Stephen helped the rest of the team search the canal by boat and killed a shark attacking Jenny. Upon examanation of the dead creature, it was concluded that it was from the future and that it hadn't killed Lucien. Stephen suspected there was another one that had killed him, but Cutter disproved all his ideas, telling Lester it was probably a marine mammal. Lester sent the team to search the canal again, and Cutter decided to search other places despite Stephen's objections. However Abby was taken by the creature while Cutter was trying to lure it out, and Stephen helped search but they soon gave up hope despite Connor's objections. A furious Lester fired Cutter and put Stephen in charge, who was reluctant to do so, but asked for a remote control submarine as he was sure the creature was still in the canal. While looking through a large drainage pipe the anomaly reopened and Stephen sped up the search, and distracted the creature as it prepared to attack Cutter. Stephen quickly grabbed guns and dived into the water, making his way through the pipe and killed all the creatures before they could kill Cutter or Lucien. Connor had followed Abby and a larger version of the creature through the anomaly, and Cutter and Stephen went after them and killed the creature. Upon returning, Lester blamed Stephen for looking in the wrong place and nearly causing everyone else to die. Stephen reluctantly agreed with Lester, and Cutter told him that he'd only been lucky, which Stephen muttered he was.

Episode 2.5Edit

"You sound like Helen."

―Cutter thinks Stephen is coming around to think of him the same way Helen used to

Stephen arrived back at his flat to once again find Helen there, this time taking a shower. Helen told him that someone in the ARC was working against the team with a hidden agenda, implicating Lester and telling him Cutter was aware of the situation and hadn't told him. As he prepared to meet the others, Helen kissed him goodbye. While unloading their equipment, Stephen gave Connor advice on what to do with Abby after he'd told her he loved her, and refused to say anything for him. After using an experimental rover to explore the anomaly, Cutter suspected it was the Silurian and spotted a girl trapped on some rocks. Cutter and Stephen decided to rescue her and went through, wondering what was scaring some Giant Millipedes and coming across some military equipment in the sand. Cutter suspected it was the Cleaner they'd encountered in the mall, and Stephen accused Cutter of of keeping him in the dark because Cutter himself wasn't sure what was

going on, which Cutter noted made him sound like Helen. Continuing on, they were pursued by something underneath the sand, barely making it onto the rocks. They prepared to go back with the girl, Taylor, however they were unable to reach the closing anomaly because of what was in the sand. Stephen suggested they find somewhere with water, and while looking for a new anomaly Stephen spotting something glinting in the distance but dismissed it. A sandstorm swept up as a new anomaly was detected, and after sheltering themselves they encountered the Cleaner, who attempted to take their supplies before Cutter tricked him into getting himself attacked by a sand creature. Stephen demanded to know who he was working for, suspecting Lester, whoever the Cleaner refused to talk before he was dragged beneath the sand. While making their way to the new anomaly Stephen was attacked by the mysterious creature and dragged uner the surface, but Taylor managed to bring the creature to the surface, revealing it to be a Giant Scorpion. Stephen hung from its mandibles as another fought with it, and eventually fell free and escaped with the others through the anomaly back into the present, giving Lester the cold shoulder when they met with him.

Episode 2.6Edit

Another anomaly was detected on the M25 and a mammoth had come through. Stephen knew they needed more firepower and went to search his car for a bigger gun when Helen appeared and told her to stay down as the others went by. Stephen told her Cutter did know about the conspiracy, and Helen suggested they take the anomaly operation public. Stephen noted they would need hard evidence, and wanted to give Cutter another chance and let him make the call. Helen reluctantly agreed but said Cutter wouldn't listen but Stephen was sure he would since it wasn't personal. Howver Cutter refused to listen to Stephen and fired him, and accused Stephen of being in lvoe with Helen. Stephen returned to the ARC and was facinated by the Columbian Mammoth they had caught, and tried to convince Abby that taking the anomalies public was for the best however Abby refused. Stephen tried reasoning with Cutter but he still refused to hear him out and Stephen said it was no wonder Helen had come to him, at which Cutter punched him. Stephen left and went home and told Helen what had happened. Helen was ammused and Stephen thought all she cared about was Cutter's reaction, but she said it wasn't. Stephen and Helen then kissed, and later Stephen caught Helen finishing a phone call which sounded suspicious, and Helen claimed that she was going to see a journalist about the anomalies, which Stephen seemed to accept.

Episode 2.7Edit

"Sorry mate. I'm doing this one."

―Stephen is prepared to die for the others

Stephen was annoyed to recieve a phone call from a frantic Lester informing him of a creature attack at a Holiday Resort and that the rest of the team was missing. On the condition that none of Lester's men are around, Stephen agreed to help. At the resort, he arrives and encounters a Silurian Scorpion, but after some struggling to get it into position, Stephen managed to tie it up to the pier and called Lester, telling him "it's done". Stephen then stayed on the beach for some time before he recieved another phone call, this time from Helen, who wrongly told him that Cutter and the others had all been killed and that she was being held captive by Lester. She asked for his helped, and devastated, he threw his mobile into the sea and travelled to Leek's hideout.

After locating Helen, he denied her option to go through an anomaly and hide until they can fight back against Lester and decided to end it. While leaving, he spotted Cutter sitting on his own, and was furious that Helen lied about seeing Cutter die. He was still angry with Cutter too, but learned from him that Helen had indeed helped Leek, the actual traitor, gather all kinds of predators which were all in the lair and would kill everyone if they escaped. The three agreed in working together to lure the creatures into a single room so that they would kill one another.

But after setting things in motion, Helen was attacked by a raptor and fell to the ground in a doorway. Stephen shot the raptor twice, accidentally damaging the door locking mechanism in the process. After managing to save Helen, they found out the door could not close - not from the outside. Cutter volunteered to sacrifice himself, telling him and Helen to save themselves and reminding Stephen that Lester wasn't the enemy. However, Stephen knocked him down and went inside to lock the door himself. Stephen denied Cutter's demand to open the door, saying he couldn't allow the creatures to get back out, and asked him to tell Abby and Connor to stay out of trouble. He was killed by the creatures that surrounded him and presumably tore him apart. It is unknown which exact creature killed him although it is suggested by some that all of the creatures killed him at the same time.

After DeathEdit

Episode 2.7Edit

Sometime later the ARC team hold a funeral service for Stephen. At Stephen's funeral, Cutter realizes Claudia Brown is gone forever, just like Stephen and tears up a picture of him and Claudia and puts it on Stephen's grave. After the team leaves, Helen then arrives and puts a fossil ammonite on Stephen's grave and tells him "Be patient, Stephen. Things can change." A group of Sciswell Clones then appear at the graveyard and Helen shows an evil smile.

Extinction Event Edit

"Cutter closed his eyes, and he saw Stephen's face."

―A description from the novel, during the Entelodon rampage, down Oxford Street.

Stephen was mentioned several times. After his death, the ARC team drafted in a new SAS soldier, named Jake Hemple. His job was to make sure that no other members of the ARC's Team were killed. In the novel, it was revealed that Cutter blamed himself for Stephen's death, since he believed that it was his fault that he didn't sacrifice himself, and not Stephen.

Episode 3.1Edit

Cutter, feeling responsible for his friend's death, has a flashback of Stephen's death. Jenny then comes in and interrupts him, telling him that he should'nt blame himself for Stephen's death. Cutter then remarks that it was Helen's fault, but he can't help feel responsible. Later, as Lester was briefing Captain Becker that his job is to protect the ARC team, tells him, "We can't have another Stephen Hart". Later when Cutter and Abby were on the streets searching for the Pristichampus, Abby remarks that "Stephen would've known what to do.", causing Cutter to feel distraught again. Abby then quickly apologizes to Cutter. At the end of the episode, Connor remarked "Stephen would have loved this one", to which Cutter replied "He probaly would have liked Dr. Page too."

Episode 3.3Edit

Cutter, after seeing Helen's clone of him, asks her, "Please don't tell me you did this to Stephen." Helen responded by saying that the clones are never really the individual, dodging his question. Either way, she would have needed a DNA sample, which she likely did not have.

S4 Prequel Episode 4Edit

Matt Anderson mentions Stephen in his list of 'brilliant people' who the ARC had lost, along with Cutter and Sarah during his meeting with the new ARC team.
