| - Mr. Norton is a one binome on the crew of the Saucy Mare under The Crimson Binome. He is one of the ship's gunners. Mr. Norton and the Saucy Mare first visited Mainframe when it raided the city for software. The Saucy Mare tried to escape the system but Dot Matrix convinced Captain Capacitor that commerce was more profitable than piracy. They became partners in intersystem commerce. (The Crimson Binome) After Mainframe was cut off from the Net, the Saucy Mare tried to open up trade in other systems but ended up in trouble. Mr. Norton and most of the crew was arrested and the Saucy Mare was impounded in the Desert Port Systems harbor. With the help of Matrix and AndrAIa, Captain Capacitor freed Mr. Norton and his crew, retook the Mare, and fled the system. They quickly went to the Edge of Beyond in order to enter the Web and search for Bob. The crew covered the Mare in dead Web Creatures to protect it from the Web and Ray Tracer stabilized the Tear so that they could enter the Web. The ship ended up in a battle with the Web Riders. Mr. Norton was indispensable in fighting the Riders. He managed to shoot down one of the Web Riders, but his gun was damaged by another Rider. When Mr. Norton tried to fire again it overloaded and threw him to the deck. They nearly lost until Bob arrived calling off the battle. The Saucy Mare transported everyone to the Web Address of Mainframe, once there it encountered traps laid by Mouse each one worse than the last. The Saucy Mare was almost destroyed but Bob merged with Glitch and stabilized the tear, opening the way to Mainframe. When they arrived Mainframe had been devastated by the Viral Wars. Mr. Norton and the crew of the Saucy Mare helped the Mainframe rebellion retake the Principal Office. After the Viral Wars Mainframe began to crash. As the city collapsed Mr. Norton and the crew of the Saucy Mare were seen in the Principal Office sharing a drink with Old Man Pearson, Binky, Algernon, and Mr. Mitchell. (End Prog) Mr. Norton later attended Dot Matrix's failed wedding. He arrived at the wedding with Mr. Christopher and Miss Sally.
