Lieutenant J. "Shark" Finnegan is a Raptor pilot assigned to Galactica.
He serves with "Easy" Esrin, who is his co-pilot aboard Raptor 718. While making a routine run to Zephyr for R&R along with Lt. Gaeta, Specialist Brooks, and two Number Eight Cylons aboard, a false alarm causes the fleet to make an emergency jump. The Raptor accidentally jumps beyond the red line with no way to return to their original coordinates. The Raptor is stranded in space with only 20 1/2 hours of oxygen left (The Face of the Enemy).
