Victoria, like her professional partner Jack Harper, finds herself with a memory wiped clean in a station overlooking a post-apocalyptic Planet Earth. While there is some indication that Jack feels to the contrary, Victoria looks forward to leaving the radiation contaminated planet and moving to the new world settled by human beings (Titan, one of the moons of Saturn). However, she must first finish two more weeks on Earth engaged in her mission to help protect the assets left on the planet, which are the massive machines harvesting Earth's salt water for fusion energy and the droids which help protect them from the the remnants of an alien enemy force. She remains at the command center as Jack patrols the surface, recovering downed drones and checking on anomalies in the status of the human equipment.She and Jack are romantically involved as the two only humans on the planet living in close quarters within the station. She assures her boss and over-seer of the mission, Sally (who is in a space station orbiting Earth), that she and Jack are an effective team, but she hides from Sally, her deep emotional connection with Jack which may be seen as compromising to the mission.Her emotional concern for Jack can be inferred through her pleading with him to be more careful and not to engage in dangerous activities, but her love for his curious and independent character can be inferred through her emotional nuances, such as her slight smirk in response to his going off radar to investigate a crash landing despite her and her boss's protests.While an appreciation for Jack's strong headed perseverance can be inferred through her behavior, Victoria is more dedicated to mission protocol than Jack. She encourages him repeatedly to stay within the mission guidelines, keeping him out of radiation zones and attempting to keep him from moving outside of the orders of their superiors. At one point, when talking to Jack while he is being plagued by a vague memory which should have been completely erased, she reminds him that it is not their job to remember. She is also a deeply emotional person, which can be identified through her profuse tears, but she does not lack spontaneity and eccentricity. She at one point encourages Jack to their sky-high pool for a skinny dip and pulls him into the water while he is still fully clothed. However, this spontaneous behavior does not seem to violate mission protocol.**Spoiler Alert** **Spoiler Alert** **Spoiler Alert** **Spoiler Alert**She is, in reality a NASA pilot and a subordinate of Jack Harper. While the Victoria with which the viewers are acquainted, is only a clone of the original 2017 NASA space pilot, she keeps the same emotional depth. As the original Victoria (in 2017) approaches the alien object discovered during one of NASA's space missions, a triangular door opens revealing a bright light. She turns to her co-pilot Jack Harper and quivers out his name with tears in her eyes and a choke in her voice. Her clone, sixty years later, still chokes out his name in the same way when she is emotionally overwhelmed.
