Episode Summary: In an attempt to build up the public awareness of the station's crew in an opening move against G'rath, Amber invites an FNN crew to document a single day aboard Asteroid Base: Alpha. But the team might find more than they bargained for as the day proves to be full of surprises - stumbling upon details of Torvek and Lexi's backgrounds, and upon enlisting Counselor Kelma's assistance, documents one of the biggest decisions of Doctor Rogan's life. Throughout a round of psychological evaluations, we are taken on a trip through the minds of the station's crew.

Meanwhile, a new obstacle caused by an unknown event has prevented Rush's access to the Accobar Three device, just as his hidden bracelet is found by a member of the crew. Elsewhere, Amber comes to a decision about her future should the political crisis be averted. Only four episodes remain, and something has got to give.
