I do, actually. My apologies. I have a serious short-term memory problem that makes memorization extremely difficult unless repeated multiple times. :|
(Sadly, +1.)
Jim puts all of that on the flash drive, since it should come in handy - especially the last bit. After that, he continues looking up advice on relationships since Milno has been needling him about it and he's curious anyway.
You download everything to the flash drive and carry it back to the research guys. A man in a white lab coat is standing outside the airlock, waiting for you with a data pad in one hand. He takes the flash drive and plugs it into the data pad. After a few seconds he nods and motions for you to turn around. You do and he begins doing something using the panel between your shoulder blades. Three loading bars pop up in your peripheral vision and each ding as they complete.
"Done." the man says, closing the panel. "Remember, don't go doing anything without our help. Illegal modifying can be very dangerous."
The man disappears through the airlock before you can even turn around, so you head back to the rec room and start poking around the net again.

Milno finds Jim:
"Hey Jim. I see you were able to escape the vicious claws of forced matrimony."
If Jim happens to want to know what happened while he was out cold during the mission, tell him.
Narrate the story adding some few details, such as:
"At first Feyri retrieved your body and was talking about using you as a meat shield, but after some time, though, specially after using you as a tool to powerslide under the sentinel, she started to cradle your body in her arms and carry it around obssessively like you were some kind of baby or wounded lover."
Basically, be Milno.
Jim stupidly takes the bait while continuing his searching/downloading. "Yeah, what's that all about anyway? Why do you keep talking about Feyri and me?" After Milno tells him, Jim turns to him, his emoticon changing from 
to 
to again and then to :3. "I see. I think I'll just go talk to her about that here in a little while." His emoticon remains :3 until further notice.
Milno, with nothing to do, walks up behind Jim as he's surfing and rests one arm on the cyborg's plastic head.
""Hey Jim. I see you were able to escape the vicious claws of forced matrimony."
"Yeah...whats up with that anyways? What happened while I was...well, dead."
"Funny story. So, you got blown in half and kinda floated like a hilarious ragdoll superman over to the door. We all made it in by commando crawling like a pack of mildly brain damaged snakes and then Feyri thought it would be super cool to drag your corpse around for some reason. At first she said it was because she wanted a meat shield, and then she used you as a corpsey skateboard to, stay with me here, to powerslide under a giant homicidal metal diamond. Crazy huh?
But after a while she dropped the whole pretense and started carrying you around like some sort of love struck Valkyrie. I tell ya, when Ivan put a gauss rifle round straight through your sternum, she was pretty freaked out."
Milno laughs a while to himself before continuing.
"But yeah, I'm fairly certain she would like to screw your bolt into her nut, if you catch my drift."
Jim's emoticon changes from
to
to
again and then to :3. "I see. I think I'll just go talk to her about that here in a little while."
Elisaz resumes flipping through channels.
