Liked this look into a life of someone who didn't get the magic of being a main character in the series. If anything it made the concept of Eros as an experiment even more silly and absurd because of the way it seriously credentials the scientists but gives little to no explanation for what they jumped so quickly to essentially an entirely uncontrolled mess of an "experiment".
