When Ladon Radim came to the Atlantis expedition for help in overthrowing him, Lt. Colonel John Sheppard and Dr. Rodney McKay came to warn him. He appeared grateful for the information. When Sheppard and McKay decided to squash the coup themselves, they were knocked unconscious by gas. When they awoke, Cowen was there to greet them and told them he knew of the coup the entire time and that Ladon had the best interests of the Genii at heart. He then contacted Dr. Elizabeth Weir and demanded all of their Puddle Jumpers in exchange for their lives. Unknown to him, Ladon was planning a coup and planted a Genii nuclear bomb in the building. Cowen along with his personal guard were killed in the blast. (SGA: "Coup D'etat")
