Tony Flynn

Detached and professional, with no visible reaction to the moral weight of his actions. He’s a cog in the machine, performing his role without question. His silence amplifies the tension—he doesn’t need to speak to make his presence felt.

Neutral and detached, fulfilling his role without emotional investment. His actions are purely transactional, reflecting the lab’s hierarchical power structure.

Hesitant and conflicted, torn between his duty to Reegan and the fear of being held responsible for the astronauts’ demise. His emotional state is one of growing anxiety, as he realizes he lacks the authority to make this decision alone and is being maneuvered into a corner.

Nervous and conflicted, torn between loyalty to Reegan and his growing discomfort with the situation.

Anxious and torn—Flynn is clearly uncomfortable with Reegan’s escalation but lacks the courage to resist. His warning to Liz is less about threat and more about self-preservation, a plea for her not to provoke Reegan further.

Furious and adrenalized during the fight, but his emotional state shifts to shock and defeat as he is subdued and sent rolling down the slope. There’s a moment of raw vulnerability as he realizes the mission has failed.
