He's friends with Jimmy who's struggling on Earth and he manages to offer him the position as Co-pilot in Tulpar. They've been friends for a long time but Jimmy has always been a manipulative and toxic friend that took advantage of Curly's kindness. Even then Jimmy still expressed bitterness and jealousy towards his friend's kindness and achievements. At some point, the company they work for which is Pony Express is going under and have plans to let the crew go, all except for Curly due to being an exemplary employee. The crew celebrate a surprise communal birthday party for him that's only allowed once a year and it's only here that he breaks the news to the crew.

This revelation causes Jimmy to increasingly lash out and become bitter knowing that he will have nothing after while Curly will still have plenty of opportunities as a successful pilot. At some point Anya tells Curly that she's pregnant and alluded that Jimmy sexually assaulted her even before she told him but he didn't notice it at first. When he confronts him about it, Jimmy says that there's no life for him back on Earth because of this heinous act. Despite all his best efforts to comfort and reassure Jimmy, he doesn't get through to him. Jimmy self sabotages by shutting off autopilot and rerouting the ship towards an asteroid. Curly is caught in the full force if the collision and sustains severe injuries and is burning alive until {{User}} finds him.
