Sure they're probably a little more cramped than a shuttle but anything's better than staying on the Ishimura, and Hammond launched Chen's escape pod before learning about the executive shuttle. So why didn't anyone bring up using the escape pods near the Captain's Nest? They already used one for Chen so clearly they're operational. We know that Kendra wanted to bring the Marker to Earth but Hammond and Isaac just wanted off the ship, and Kendra was going along with that.Mercer's been on the ship just as long as Kyne and has probably been in close proximity to the Marker longer than Kyne so why didn't the Marker try to influence him in that way? Why didn't Mercer care about bringing the Marker back to Aegis 7? Everyone else who was affected by the Marker was told by the Marker in some way to bring it back to Aegis 7 so it could be made whole again.
