"Dr. Arthur Ramsey"
Arthur Ramsey is a linguist and mathematician who translates the "language" of the alien signal
the and seemingly nonsensical clues left by those exposed to the probe; he has also proven valuable in questioning suspects.
His greatest vices are gambling, booze and women, and he enjoys sneaking away to indulge these habits (taking Pegg along
for the ride at least once). Quick-witted and sarcastic, he enjoys debating with Pegg, flirting with Molly, and
shooting off apt, hilarious and perfectly-timed one-liners to all of the Red Team members. To our knowledge
he has never been married and has no current girlfriend.
