Vic Jr.

Vic Jr. originally appears at the end of episode 71, when Church accidentally contacts him via radio, and reveals himself to be a distant future descendant of the Vic from the present. Vic Jr. scoffs at Church's mention of Blue Command and notes that there is a lot of information to divulge. Neither this information nor the nature of the organization to which Vic Jr. actually belong has yet been revealed. It has also not yet been explained how Vic has been able to have descendants, as he had previously mentioned his vasectomy to Doc. This fact was acknowledged in episode 75, but not resolved. Toward the beginning of Season 5, Church attempted to contact Vic Jr. for reinforcements, but Vic was not at his post and his message box turned out to be full after a lengthy and somewhat nonsensical set of instructions. He later contacted Church, telling him to immediately attack the Red Base, going through the caves, then hanging up before Church could get any more information. Not long after, he is contacted by the Reds, but hangs up when he somehow notices Simmons arriving at the surveillance console in the caverns. It is yet to be revealed where he is located, though Simmons, unaware of who Sarge was talking to, maintains that Vic Jr. is in the cavern somewhere. In episode 99, Flowers is seen standing in front of the computer screen talking and Vic Jr. is heard responding, although his exact location is still unclear. He appears in the second ending of episode 100, where Sarge calls him for reinforcements. Vic Jr. tells Sarge that he ruined the plan by destroying the ship, making Sarge destroy the underground computer in anger. He does not appear in the first and the third endings. Vic Jr is an AI residing in the underground computer (VIC - Virtual Intelligence Computer) , explaining Simmons' belief that Vic was in the cavern and how he was apparently able to survive the apparent several hundred-year time gap between seasons, as Vic's vasectomy would seem to rule out any descendants.
Vic Junior's status as an actual character is dubious at best. During the events of Revelation, Simmons and the remaining Red and Blue soldiers discovered Secret Freelancer Files that confirmed that much of the events of The Blood Gulch Chronicles were in fact a massive simulation intended to train and hone the skills of Freelancer agents by presenting them with a variety of situations. The Red and Blue soldiers were intended to be used for these simulation purposes so it can be assumed that Vic and Vic Jr. were employed by Project Freelancer if not also the same person who was intentionally misleading the Reds and the Blues so as to create a realistic training environment.
