Notes[edit | edit source]
- The character was described in the novella The Churn and the novel Nemesis Games.
- From these books, it is revealed that the character widely known as "Amos Burton" actually grew up with the name "Timmy".[2]
- The government never had an official record for a person using the name "Amos Burton" until it was officially transferred to Timmy on his way out of Baltimore by his friend Erich.[3]
- While this character had not yet appeared in the TV show until in flashback during season 5, she has been referenced a couple of times by Amos in season 2.
- Amos prepared search that he did not execute before Alex came on deck with him aboard the Rocinante in "Pyre".
- Starting when he was distributing aid packages to the small refugee family during the events observed in "The Seventh Man", an incident where Amos scared a Ganymede refugee child and mother triggered a series of memories about Lydia. Amos mentioned her to Paolo Cortázar as someone who took care of him.
