I will work on some kind of storage device for the crew. Most likely it will also be a sort of warping device used for none living "samples". I'm thinking the second cargo hold can be filled with large, empty boxes. Each box is assigned to specific crew members (this way there would be no matter overlap like the problem two people use the Translocater at the same time). The limitations would be the size of the box and how many boxes each person has. 

I'm also thinking of having Ryen experience some side effects with the technology. For example, if she charges the Feeder on body heat, hers will charge slightly faster do to her increase in metabolism. Meanwhile, she'll experience some interference with the Communicator Lazlo's provided and opt to use the one on her wrist instead.
