Linda.

Linda was the girlfriend of Paul. She went with him on his heroin-running expedition and was on board his yacht during their cross-Pacific voyage. When it sank, she joined her boyfriend and the others in the single life raft. The group soon found their way onto a seemingly abandoned oil rig, which it turned out was owned by the Brinkstone company and was a front for a mysterious scientific experiment called the Proteus Project. There was no sign of the Brinkstone scientists. Just empty clothes and discarded guns.

That night, as Linda slept in one of the scientists' cabins with Paul, she urged him to share his stash of heroin with addict Mark. Reluctantly, he agreed, but as soon as he stepped out into the hallway, something seized him and dragged him away. Pursuing, the group found no sign of Paul, but instead encountered a scientist named Dr. Shelley, whose answers as to Paul's whereabouts were evasive. He'd say only that "Charlie" was responsible. When Alex attempted to force Shelley to tell them where Paul was, the seemingly meek scientist threw him aside and then walked away unimpeded.

Eventually, it was discovered that the Proteus Project had turned and ordinary great white shark, Charlie, into a genetically engineered killing machine that absorbed the minds of its victims. After some time aboard the rig, Linda and Alex were the only two left alive and Alex confessed to her that he was actually a DEA agent. Not long after this, the two were taken prisoner by several armed guards working for Leonard Brinkstone, who had come to check up on the Proteus Project. Charlie, in the form of Dr. Shelley, attacked Brinkstone and his guards, while Linda and Alex escaped to the exterior of the rig.

Linda ran and got into the helicopter which Brinkstone and his men had come in, whilst Alex faced Charlie and killed the creature with a blazing inferno. With the rig on fire and moments from exploding thanks to a bomb Brinkstone had planted, the pilot flew the helicopter over so that Alex could get aboard, and then they flew away from the rig before it blew up. On the flight home, Linda asked Alex if he was going to arrest her, and he replied that he hadn't decided yet. Neither of them noticed the bizarre behavior of the pilot, who had become taken over by Charlie.
