Biography

Background information

Not much has been disclosed so far about his life before 2009. According to Lt. Vanessa James, he is widowed. In the Icarus project he seemed to have worked as a computer technician. (SGU: "Space")

2009

In 2009, he and roughly 80 people were forced to evacuate Icarus Base during an attack against the base by three Ha'tak vessels. He ended up on the Destiny, an Ancient spaceship located several billion light years from Earth. Since moving in, he regretted bringing his only pair shoes with him, though fellow scientist Dr. Dale Volker thought they were nice shoes. (SGU: "Air, Part 1", "Justice")

He was sent to a Gravel pit planet with Lt. Vanessa James, Dr. Dale Volker and Airman Rennie, where they discovered a crashed alien spacecraft sometime after believing the exploration of the planet may have been a waste of time. (SGU: "Justice")

He was later assigned to the Communication lab; he filled in for Sgt. Hunter Riley, who was injured weeks earlier. Caine filled in for him until Riley fully recovered. He overheard Lt. Vanessa James' infatuation for him by accident (James mentioning that he was particularly appealing due to his status as a widower, as it showed that he was capable of forming a deep relationship with another that had ended through no fault of his own). Later, after the expedition's first Nakai encounter, he was approached by Lt. Tamara Johansen concerning whether or not Caine would pursue a relationship with James. Caine said he wouldn't, since it could become awkward between the two if it were to fail. However, he did point out that if they are to be on Destiny for a long time, he will change his mind. (SGU: "Space")

As a part of group sent to the planet Eden, he started to believe that they should stay there. He refused to return, as did several others. In exchange for the damaged Ancient shuttle, he was left there with a small group of civilians once the military personnel returned with Colonel Everett Young. (SGU: "Faith")

Some time later, Lt. Tamara Johansen saw him in a dream. He told her that the Planet builders took care of him and other stranded people and gave them homes to survive winter. He also showed her odd stellar object appeared in the sky. Eventually the obelisk builders sent TJ back, but let her baby stay on Eden where Caine and the others would take care of them. TJ at first wasn't sure if it was real, but after seeing the object, apparently a nebula where Destiny next stopped, she seemed to come to believe she really did see him. (SGU: "Intervention")

Several months after Dr. Nicholas Rush unlocked the bridge and the loss of the functional Ancient shuttle, Caine and the group that remained on the planet appeared to Destiny after they exited FTL. While he and the group couldn't remember what happened, the shuttle was found to be in better than new condition. Eventually, those in the group began to die. It was realized that they had already died before and that the Planet builders had reanimated them somehow. Caine was the last person alive of the group and spent his final hours with TJ, speculating that the group were dying because the builders had only been able to restore their bodies rather than their souls. (SGU: "Visitation")
