Working Joes, also referred to as Maintenance Synths, were a line of rudimentary androids manufactured and sold by the Seegson Corporation. They were encountered aboard the decommissioned space station, Sevastopol, in 2137 and later in 2202, on the surface of LV-895, by Amanda Ripley-McClaren and the Colonial Marine fireteam, respectively.

Overview

"You always know a Working Joe."

―Tagline for Working Joe advertisements (from Alien: Isolation)

Unlike the human-resembling synthetics of Weyland-Yutani or Hyperdyne Systems, the Working Joes feature hairless rubber skin, LED eyes, a robotic voice and lack facial movement. While this is a result of inferior technology and manufacturing by Seegson, the models are marketed as being purposely designed this way to make it obvious at a glance that they are synthetics, as opposed to the Weyland-Yutani models that can be easily mistaken for a human being.^{[citation needed]} As such, Seegson heavily markets their product line towards humans who fear the ability of synthetics to pass themselves off as "real people".

While they are considerably stronger than humans, Working Joes are inferior to W-Y models such as Samuels, who was able to effortlessly destroy a Joe with his own hands when provoked.

Seegson offers the Joes as a package of androids and a governing artificial intelligence, (in Sevastopol's case, it was APOLLO). Its marketing approach is twofold:

• The package of androids and centralized AI is more cost-effective than competing synthetic solutions, where each unit is a stand-alone artificial intelligence.
• The obviously-synthetic Joes are (supposedly) less disquieting than human-resembling synthetics; people immediately know that they are dealing with an android instead of discovering that what they thought was a human being is actually a synthetic. As the Joes themselves often say, "You always know a Working Joe."

The majority of Working Joes are the standard model, identifiable by their industrial overalls.

Many archive logs can be picked up in the station that mention the Joes. Some of them are advertisements whilst others are logs recorded by residents that either express a suspicion to them or portray them making a complaint regarding them. Seegson executive B. Ransome in particular, had recorded an angry message of him describing that he had been attacked by one in his apartment.

Variants

Also present on the station is a model easily identified by an even more unsettling and hoarse voice to the typical Joe and full body hazardous environment gear. They are only encountered around APOLLO's core and Reactor Maintenance. They are more resilient to damage received by firearms and craftable items, and are notably immune to the effects of EMP mines and the stun baton. However, they move at an even slower walking pace than the standard model, making them easier to evade.

Joes were also rumoured to have been commissioned for use as combat synthetics, though the validity of this is unknown.

Characteristics and Behavior

"You and I are going to have a talk about safety"

―Working Joe synthetic in hostile mode (from Alien: Isolation)

The Working Joes possess little independent operating capacity and are completely subservient to the directives of their governing APOLLO A.I. They operate in two modes, identifiable by the color of their "eyes":

• When a Joe's eyes glow white, the Joe is operating per normal parameters. Unless it finds the player in a restricted area or committing a breach of station protocol, it will acknowledge the player's presence but go about its own business (unless its business involves serving the player's immediate needs, like the Requisitions Android).
• When a Joe's eyes glow red, the Joe is hostile. It will approach targets at a brisk walk and attack, grasping, striking, throwing and throttling them, doing damage until they are killed.

The Joe's polite attitudes and formal vocabulary are comically contrasted by their murderous intent when APOLLO had overridden their primary synthetic programming.

Interactions with Xenomorphs

"Unidentified species."

―A Working Joe, to a Xenomorph (from Alien: Isolation)

If the Alien and a Working Joe encounter each other, neither the Alien nor the Joe will interact with each other physically; the Joe will go about its business and the Xenomorph will ignore the synthetic. This is likely because the Joe is seen as a simple piece of machinery to the Drone. However, the presence of a dismembered Synthetic in the Gemini Exoplanet Solutions lab module implies that there have been circumstances in which the Alien has attacked a Working Joe or vice versa.

Despite any programmed safeguards, a Joe will not act to protect human beings from the Alien.

History

The Union of Progressive Peoples were rumoured to have commissioned Working Joe's to be utilized as combat synthetics. This was later proven true with the emergence of the Dzho Automaton, also known as the "Fighting Joe".

Working Joes saw use during Sevastopol Station's run, governed by the APOLLO A.I. After learning of a potential Xenomorph outbreak on Sevastopol Station, in 2137, Weyland-Yutani purchased the outdated station and remotely installed an "operational ruleset packet" into APOLLO, which included Special Order 939. As part of the software update, APOLLO began scanning the station for Xenomorph presence, and upon discovering the creatures in the station's reactor maintenance sector (where they had begun constructing a Hive) the computer activated the special order on 11/24/2137. APOLLO shut off all communications, and subsequently reprogrammed the Joes stationed at the comms center to prevent anyone from attempting to send a message off-station - Comms manager Hughes was killed after confronting a Joe about the issue. Amanda Ripley-McClaren would go on to encounter several Joes within the center, and later still during her plight for survival.

Due to the efforts of Marshal Waits using Amanda as bait, when an Alien was later jettisoned from the station in the Gemini Exoplanet Solutions module, APOLLO responded by ordering all Working Joes to hunt down and kill the station's remaining human inhabitants to ensure the survival of the specimens. All Joes on the station would go on to be destroyed after the station plummeted into KG-348's atmosphere.

Working Joes were encountered by a squad of Marines from the UAS Endeavor within Pala Station and on the surface of LV-895.

Behind the Scenes

The Joes' crude look was inspired by 1970s resuscitation dummies. The androids were originally intended to have brown, rubbery hair, but this was dropped in favor of the sleeker bald-headed design.

The androids' behavior, and by extension Seegson's corporate policy, was inspired by a sign that Alien: Isolation writer Will Porter read in a North Carolina McDonald's restaurant in 1999 — 'Why not ask about our orange drink dispenser?' This statement later evolved into the Joes' line, "Why not ask me about Sevastopol's safety protocols?" but more so struck Porter with its absurdity. "To me, this is the voice of Seegson," Porter later said in an interview. "An ineffectual boardroom (forever leaking talent to the likes of Weyland-Yutani) sending out nothing but self-deluding missives that have little to no use on Earth – let alone for the real people suffering on a dilapidated space station floating alone on the edge of space." Fellow writer Dion Lay went on to explain the Joes' vocal patterns, likening them to "those automated messages you get when you phone a call center — the content of the words are polite and friendly but it's lacking any real sincerity". The darkly comedic way these polite messages are often at odds with the Joes' murderous actions stemmed from Lay's love of cult British television, which often contained similar abstract, understated horror.

Trivia

• It was originally planned to have the Joes quote lines from Shakespeare in a malevolent manner, and this dialogue was even recorded for the game. However, it was ultimately decided it didn't fit with the game world and was cut.
• One of the Working Joe's many animations when standing still is one in which the Joe suddenly begins jogging on the spot for a second. This odd mannerism is a direct reference to the movie Alien and the character Ash, who does the same thing. Ash in turn uses some of the Working Joe's idle animations in his depiction in the game.
  • Similarly, in Seegson Synthetics, a dead body that is later identified to be Smythe can be found with a rolled up magazine down his throat, presumably done by a Working Joe. This is another direct reference to Ash as he attempts to kill Ripley in the same fashion.
• Although they do not appear in the original print novel, Working Joes are mentioned numerous times in the audiobook version of Alien: Out of the Shadows. For example, when describing the nature of Ash to the crew of the Marion, Ellen Ripley says that the Science Officer "was not just a Working Joe, he was totally flawless, took us in".
• The Weyland-Yutani corporate security drones appearing in the comic Aliens: Defiance are cosmetically very similar to Working Joes, although unlike Joes, these androids appear to possess their own personality and individuality, with at least one, Davis One, claiming to have broken free of his programming.
• Working Joes are encounterable enemies in Aliens: Fireteam Elite. Utilizing Maintenance Jacks, they will rush the player and attack them.
