Rodge McCaffrey (Rig, callsign: Rigmarole) is a childhood friend of Spensa who is accepted into DDF Flight School with her. He drops out after one day, realizing that it is not for him. Rig pursues the Engineering Corps, where he can repair ships instead of fly them. Rig repairs M-Bot with parts given to him from the Engineering Corp and parts that Spensa collects.

However, after one day of flight school, he drops out; realizing that it has only ever been Spensa's dream.
