Tram Supervisor Benson's RIG cannot be obtained until you gain access to the Crew Deck from the Bridge at the start of Chapter 10, so it won't be possible to obtain Master Override before that point. Still, you can save time by collecting each of the other RIGs when you go through the respective chapter, to avoid having to progress back through the entire ship to get them.
