The Surgeon
Once inside the cave—and finding himself on an atmospherically illuminated sound stage as opposed to the sun-lit splendour of the “The Fox Ranch”—Galen fails to notice that the backpack he was carrying has metamorphosed into a simple sack—looking not unlike the one filled with bread that Zantes handed to Burke at the conclusion of “The Good Seeds”. Within it, of course, are a Simian medical practicioner’s collar and Burke’s servant’s smock. It makes more sense for Galen to be carrying these items in the sack—because, presumably, when he went to visit Kira he did not have a definite plan in mind and would not have anticipated the need for bringing anything back with him. Consequently, he would have travelled without luggage.
