2008: Red Mercury Plot[]
During Sam Fisher's infiltration into the JBA in 2008, Stanley Dayton had developed a hacking program for Enrica Villablanca for use during the operation to test a bomb on the Cozumel cruise ship. After the Kinshasa operation, the entire JBA Headquarters compound went into lock down following the capture of a suspicious individual snooping around the perimeters and SWAT forces that had surrounded the building. With Carson Moss sent off-site by Emile Dufraise to take a Coast Guard boat with one of the Red Mercury bombs, the rest of the JBA members stood ground inside of the compound, including Stanley Dayton. Dayton was busy in the computer room, preparing things when Sam Fisher, intent on disabling the last Red Mercury bomb locating underground, grabbed Dayton. After interrogating him, Fisher killed Dayton and moved to the lower levels to disarm Emile's bomb.
Trivia[]
- Dayton is the only core JBA member that appears only in version 1 of Double Agent, in version 2 he is replaced by Billy Jo Sykes, who only appears in version 2.
- Dayton has numerous tattoos on his arms.
- Although Sam is able to knock out Dayton non-lethally, Splinter Cell: Conviction script writer Richard Dansky confirmed that killing him is the canon choice.[2]
- Dayton can be found in the server room in the final part of the mission, you can see him running toward the server room while Emile order the JBA to arm themselves.
- On the last level, the player can interrogate Dayton to find out where Dufraisne is by simply grabbing him — he doesn't fight back like Dufraisne or Moss, but he will shoot you on sight. Sam can then incapacitate Dayton either by killing him or knocking him out, although the canon choice is to kill him. Either choice allows Sam to scan his retina.
- Dayton talks in his sleep. This is one way Sam is able to record his voice. He has nightmares about childhood spankings as he says "No, mommy, not the hairbrush!"
