| '''Wellington''' is one of the first [[Super Scout]]s to settle [[Earth (1980)|Earth]]. He is the more mature of the bunch, if not a bit off-putting, and matter-of-fact at times. | | '''Wellington''' is a [[Super Scout]] who leads a seminar on television camera (Camera 4) technology at the [[United Broadcasting Company|UBC studio]], taking it apart to explain its workings. When confronted by an irate cameraman, he and the scouts hastily reassemble the camera, which [[Brooks|Mr. Brooks]] and the camera believe to be impossible. Wellington later hits a homerun in the championship game, explaining to his bewildered opponent that it is a simple matter of physics ([[Spaceball]]). |

After they reach [[Shuttle Alpha]], Wellington and [[Starla]] reject Dillon's help in [[braces|bracing]] themselves in.

| After making landfall, Wellington appears to assert some level of maturity and leadership role among the Super Scouts. He takes it upon himself to read the Scout handbook Troy had procured. However, later that day, he, [[Moonstone]] and another scout become ill due to drinking from the nearby lake, which is host to various toxic chemicals originating from the [[Stanford Chemical Plant]] {{G80|The Super Scouts, Part I}}. When neither his nor the sick Scouts condition change for the better, Troy, Dillon and [[John Stockton]] meet up with the [[anti-gravity ship]] that the Warriors had summoned, and he is subsequently treated on board {{G80|The Super Scouts, Part II}}.

| During a showing of ''[[References in Galactica 1980#Movies|This Island Earth]]'' at a movie complex, he notes that the mutant alien looks like a [[Gorkon]].

| * Wellington is identified in "[[The Super Scouts, Part II]]" as "Jason" by [[Dillon]]. However, Battlestar Wiki goes with "Wellington" as identified in "[[Spaceball]]," thus treating Dillon's statement as a [[Continuity errors (1980)#Logic errors|continuity error]].
