Gordon is turning out to be a very reliable man. Even when Doniger and his crew brought him to their faculty, Gordon can still see through their words and actions. "'They don't trust anybody,' Gordon said, 'Believe me, nobody gets in here unless we intend for them to get in(146)."Gordon can see that Doniger brought them over just for his sake and can see right through his plans and his thoughts towards them.

The reader can learn more that Doniger is a manipulative man. He brought a group of interns to his faculty to help get the professor back. "A masterful performance, Gordon thought. One of Doniger's best-charming, energetic, even excessive at moments(142)." Gordon can see that Doniger isn't really the person he is made out to be. He uses his charm and power to manipulate people to think he is some great and kind being

The reader can see that Doniger is a cold business man. When a group of graduate's professor was brought back to the past by accident, it didn't affect Dongier one bit, he didn't feel stressed or worried. "'Personally, I thought the old fart was an asshole,'Dongier said. 'But if we don't get him back, it's a publicity nightmare(120)." Doniger cares nothing about the professor's safety and only cares about his image.

No? Then maybe Dr. Marek mentioned it to me...it must be in one of the surveys.Or old photographs(70)."Kramer is being very mysterious and suspicious of the information she gave out.

I predict that the mysterious guy found in the desert may lead to a very big secret. "'His fingertips are cold, turning purple, they could even go gangrenous. Whatever it is, it's gotten worse since he's been in the hospital(17)."This shows that the man isn't ordinary and his body doesn't function the same as other. This can lead to a new discovery in whatever he is trying to tell the people
