His family was in turmoil when Caleb constantly nagged Elias about becoming more worthwhile than a black market dealer, often using Benjamin; a doctor, as an example and this led Elias to despise Benjamin. Caleb was injured in an accident at the plant, and is rescued by one of the Visitor technicians Willie, which leads them to become friends. When Benjamin joined the Resistance and was killed by the Visitors, Caleb and Elias both become active members of the Resistance to avenge his death. (V: The Original Miniseries])
