Deception Point/YMMV

• Complete Monster - Senator Sedgewick Sexton. See Moral Event Horizon below for details.
• Moral Event Horizon - Sexton not caring that his daughter is in danger while he prepares to turn the evidence of the meteorite forgery public, thus destroying Herney's reputation. And when Gabrielle asks him what if she gets killed, what is his reply? "Then she will cement my sympathy vote."
• Relationship Sue - Michael, who is good looking, famous, well spoken, and nice serves very little purpose other than for Rachel to become interested in. This is especially glaring since all of the other scientists are average looking at best, unsociable, crass, and generally unpleasant.
