Biography
When the base was kept on quarantine lock-down, it refused to let Martin in, in part due to the boredom of not fulfilling its potential. When the Doctor arrived, he tried to convince it that if did not it let Martin, it would be causing him to starve and go against its programming. He managed to convince Jones to release manual override by relating to it how he knew it was intelligent but not put to use and bored. Jones thanked the Doctor for giving it the chance to talk to someone who understood it.

The Doctor later came to Jones with an environment status chip from a dead Poseidon personnel member. Jones could not identify the radiation it registered, but was assured by the Doctor that its systems still fully functioned, only the radiation was alien. (VG: Shadows of the Vashta Nerada)
