Eden's Company files are in a plain manila box with black wire binding on the edges and a blue-and-white placard on the side bearing the emblem of an oak tree, with the name "McCain, Eden" in capital letters beneath it, along with "vol. 1 of 1." The box looks like these:






Unlike Elle's box above, Eden's is full of files from her time with the Company. It contains the following:

+ The FBI file for Sarah Ellis. Along with generic biographical information, it makes note that she has been charged with grand theft auto, larceny, robbery and arson, and is wanted on suspicion of murder in Oklahoma. Listed is one previous arrest, made in Los Angeles, California. Her mugshot is included.

+ A newspaper article clipped from the Perkins Journal, reporting the burning down of a local house, the death of one of its inhabitants, an Ava Ellis, and that step-daughter Sarah Ellis is missing and suspected of having set the fire.

+ Company medical and psych records from the time of her detainment by the Haitian and Bennet, along with Bennet's initial evaluation. These describe her as being of minimal risk in the presence of the Haitian, but of enormous potential use, as well as alluding to guilt issues, the possibility of deep loyalty and the suggestion that playing on her need for a father figure may be helpful.

+ Company psych records from the next three months, along with progress reports from Bennet. These records are much less detailed, more vague, than the first.

+ Eden's own reports from Brooklyn, detailing her progress with Chandra Suresh. These make mention of a Suresh's references to a Patient Zero, a young man named Gabriel Gray, and his increasing concerns about this patient. The last note before Suresh's death indicates that Patient Zero had made a breakthrough of some kind, although there's no description of what this was.

+ A brief report from Bennet following Suresh's death, regarding Eden's shortlived return to Odessa. This is in conjunction with an incident report from Elle Bishop, which details a physical altercation with McCain and implies that her own assignment in Odessa is on the right track.

+ One more report from Brooklyn. It references Mohinder Suresh and her work with him very briefly, and is largely focused on the detainment of Isaac Mendez.

+ A Company autopsy report, which lists her death as a suicide.

+ A closing report from N. Bennet, detailing Eden's disobedience and subsequent death, which he describes as "heroic," if made necessary by behavior out of keeping with Company policy. Also mentioned is the disposal of her body in Lake Ramsey in Sudbury, Ontario.
