When journeying through the nowhere with Spensa, Chet tells her that he has the ability to communicate cytonically, expand his lifespan, and visualize the entire belt in his head. These are all abilities that are possessed by delvers.{{book ref|sky3|9}} Chet is physically fit, and has a lot of practical survival knowledge.{{book ref|sky3|14}}.

He fled, hiding on the fragment when Spensa was captured. When Spensa tells him that she switched the plan at the last moment in case he was a traitor, Chet was deeply hurt, and felt betrayed. He talked about his self-doubt to Spensa, and accepted her apology.{{book ref|sky3|18}}. As Spensa worked under the direction of the Broadsiders, Chet occasionally talked with her cytonically, giving her information and advice.{{book ref|sky3|19}} When Spensa escaped the Broadsiders and found her pin missing, Chet truthfully insisted that he didn't steal it. Spensa picked up Chet and flew away with the Broadsiders chasing her. They flew upwards continuously, but both of them started to lose themselves the further away from the fragments they got, and they returned. Peg offered to let Spensa and Chet join them, and Chet advised Spensa to agree, which she did.{{book ref|sky3|22}}
