As Harper's crew took up Commodore Munro's (increasingly regretful) offer, two amongst them were less inclined to dive right in to their new mission. Stiner and Garath conspired to convince Harper lto change his mind by distracting Hugs, overriding the Phoenix's command lockouts and with the former taking up arms in Engineering and delivering a reminder of Starfleet's drastic interference in the Tyrella Sector over the last decade.

There was no predetermined outcome as to how many would side with Stiner, but in the end, not even (Crewman Chief) Gork opted to share in his vision of hijacking the Phoenix for their own purposes. Munro's warning of what would happen if they did not stay the course seemingly too fresh in their minds. Even the promise of a clean slate too appealing an offer to turn down for others; whether they be forced to wear the uniform or not. Stiner may have been incapacitated by Vallen and destined to return to the Klingons, but Garath was left standing - his fate hanging in the balance as the Phoenix docked with Pioneer Station.

Thank you to those that attended this first *proper* episode of Star Trek: Tyrella. I hope than an interesting journey awaits over the next five weeks! There will be more time for the crew to familiarise themselves with their new surroundings - with a new, perhaps unwelcome addition to the gang - in episode two; Black Sails.
