Danny (Danny Danger)

Danny (Danny Danger) is a figure present in the archive only through absence and grief—a former guest on Psyche's show who was murdered in Pasco City, Washington, approximately three weeks prior to the episode in question. He exists in the record as a catalyst for emotional upheaval rather than as a direct participant.

Danny appears in the archive as a wound. His death becomes the lens through which Psyche processes not only personal loss but also the inadequacy and cruelty of how others respond to that loss. The episode reveals that Danny had been a guest on Psyche's show, suggesting some prior intellectual or spiritual alignment with the host's work. His murder—three shots to the chest—is a stark intrusion of street violence into the world of the archive, and Psyche's grief is complicated by his perception that others are trivializing or mocking his mourning rather than honoring it.

Danny's primary documented relationship is with Psyche, who knew him personally and invited him to appear on the show. The exact nature of their friendship or shared interests is not detailed in the archive, but the depth of Psyche's grief suggests meaningful connection. His death becomes a wedge between Psyche and Beeta, who appear to have fundamentally different approaches to processing tragedy and grief.
