Talk:John (Secret Service agent)

From Wiki 24

On the Secret Service deployment screen showed by Steve Thompson in Day 5, there are two J.'s unaccounted for, J. Poladian and J. Surre. John Poladian is a member of the Day 5 production crew, so I assume his name is John Surre. Please provide feedback to this. - Protocol Red 17:46, 6 July 2007 (UTC)

Yes check out this breakdown of what appeared on that roster. If you're suggesting that we change this character's name to John Surre, I'm pretty sure we can't, for several reasons. First, remember that John appeared only moments after Agent North. Now, agent North simply isn't on that roster, so we cannot know if this John was someone who was even on that roster in the first place (that might have been the roster for night time only, explaining North's absence). Those names might have been James and Jonathan. Also, we'll probably never know if the real man John Poladian was: (a) attaching his name to this character, (b) attaching his name to a different unseen agent, or (c) even aware that this character was called John at all.

You've done some great work trying to figure that one out. As it stands so far, I don't believe it's sufficient however to make the change. If you're not convinced just let me know, and maybe some others who catch this would like to weigh in. – Blue Rook 18:08, 6 July 2007 (UTC)_talkcontribs
