Boon and Ike have a relationship of strict professionalism. It is very clear that Ike does not like or respect Boon, perhaps because of his alcoholism, and often resents the fact that he is put in charge of Boon to ensure that he does not drink himself stupid. The pair is often sent to run errands together or complete labor tasks together, even though Ike is extremely cool toward Boon.
