Now I'm no superhero by any means, but I have to imagine Cecil should've gone over in orientation something along the lines of "Hey by the way, it *is* possible for people to lie to you, and don't just get on space ships with random aliens"

Especially when said random alien somehow knows his actual name lmao

Yeah I don’t get why Cecil didn’t say “what if he’s lying to you”, that seems like something Cecil would say

The reply to that is “what if he isn’t”

Cecil: “Okay, but you only just met this person. The reason we take the time to build trust, is because people don’t just reveal that they are duplicitous and would totally lie to your ass in the first 5 minutes of meeting you!”

Mark: “Oh, actually this one totally did, he totally appeared to me in disguise and lied his ass off. I’m still going though, no way he’d lie to me twice in a row!”

Cecil: “I’m actually speechless.”
