Claire Daly is the daughter of Major Daly aboard the temporally confined SS Bernice. Though treated as a civilian companion, she navigates the ship's artificial 1926 environment with a blend of forced cheer and brittle resilience. Her actions—collapsing from heat exhaustion while calling for her father, playful banter about his reading habits, and teasing his romantic nostalgia—reveal a young woman maintaining morale through routine and familial affection amid escalating dangers. She moves between domestic tenderness and sudden physical vulnerability, embodying the psychological strain of engineered denial.
