Let $e_1$ and $e_2$ be two distinct roots of the equation $x^2 - ax + 2 = 0$. Let the sets $\{a \in \mathbb{R} : e_1 \text{ and } e_2 \text{ are the eccentricities of hyperbolas}\} = (\alpha, \beta)$, and $\{a \in \mathbb{R} : e_1 \text{ and } e_2 \text{ are the eccentricities of an ellipse and a hyperbola, respectively}\} = (\gamma, \infty)$. Then $\alpha^2 + \beta^2 + \gamma^2$ is equal to:
