Owen may very well have the sweetest job of all the guards, getting to stay in the mailroom all day, not having to deal with inmates, and being able to slack off and watch TV at work. The only downside is the annoying cockroaches that appear from time to time. If he hadn't been so scathing about Clark when he was explaining how to use the sorter, you would have thought that he only got the job because he was a friend of the warden.
You know from chatting with Owen that he's a huge basketball fan and idolizes the legendary X of the Lakeshore Waves. He's so obsessed with his hero that his partner, Chen, changed the mailroom's electronic code to X's peak season scoring record of 2,481 before he went on marriage leave. This information enabled you to unlock the mailroom door.
