While the Odyssey was on her way to Alc'Traz, the ship suddenly dropped out of warp for a second. This had been caused by an undetected glitch in a secondary system, which escalated into a malfunction in the main warp core command systems, and began initiating a shutdown, according to Engineering Officer Reynold. A few moments later Reynold arrived in Sickbay with crewman Nusselt, who had hit his head. It's unknown if this is related in any way with the short failure in the warp drive.
Some time later there was another medical problem. Ensign Taine transported himself to Sickbay, with his guide-dog, or wolf, TamTam, which had a fever and had to spend a day in sickbay.
Around 1515 the peace on the Odyssey was disturbed again, this time by a ship wide holographic simulation, called Rockey King. Crewman Sanka reported to have been hit by a large rock in a corridor near his quarters, and ensign Reynold called the bridge about a knight in Main Engineering. There also were several reports about a horse and a motorbike. The simulation turned out to be started by Toad, who was running around claiming to be on a quest to find the Holy Grail.
At 1725 the Odyssey arrived at the planet Alc'Traz and entered standard orbit while masking the ship for the aliens satellite network. After some preparations, including cosmetic surgery to look like Trazzers, an away team, Cmdr Janssens, Lt Sarin, Lt's Jg Victory and Candy, Ensigns Denebris, Johnson, Meyers and Lucinda, flew to Alc'Traz with the Atlantic. When they had just left and were entering the Trazzite atmosphere, there was an explosion on the Odyssey caused by an an EPS rupture on deck 8.
The explosion attracted the Ferengi to the rescue site and the Odyssey had to keep them from going down to Alc'Traz too. Apparently they thought to have discovered some valuable minerals. However, Alc'Traz was located in UFP territory and the Prime Directive forbid access to it.
At 1923 the flyer Atlantic was set down on Alc'Traz and the away team got split up in two teams. The first team, consisting of Sarin, Candy, Johnson and Meyers stayed at the Atlantic in order to improve scanners and communication. The second team, consisting of Janssens, Victory, Denebris and Lucinda left the Atlantic in order to investigate the Venator's crash site.
While Sarin and Candy were working on the scanners, Johnson and Meyers were standing guard and checking the flyer's perimeter. The two officers inside the Atlantic came up with the idea to uplink the flyers sensors to the alien satellite network. In the meanwhile Johnson had discovered a dog in the vicinity of the Atlantic, which inspired Johnson and Meyers to take a look around. The radon particles in the atmosphere seemed to have their effect on Meyers, who forgot to take his inoculation. Meyers got scared by the sight of a few Trazzers and made a run for it.
The second team encountered a Trazzer of their own after a bit of a walk, a young boy named Beh'Lo. The team had a short conversation with this rather scared individual and after a communication of , the flyer about Meyers' situation, the team decided that it would be best to take Beh'Lo back with them to the flyer. Once they got there the scanners had already been fixed and they were ready to uplink it to the Odyssey.
When Meyers suddenly showed up on the sensors, he was being chased by a Trazzer, Candy suggested to beam Meyers directly to the Odyssey through the alien network. This however fused several wires in the alien satellites, due to the huge amount of information traffic, and another transport wasn't able anymore. Not long after that, the location of the two survivors was discovered. The pilot, a certain Logan Ghat, did not show up on the scanners, but Candy hacked the alien database which showed him to be 300 meters under the ground in an alien prison. The doctor however suddenly showed up on the scanners, not far from a group of Trazzers.
The away team was again split up, this time in three teams. One team, consisting of Commander Janssens and Lt. Sarin, was going to rescue the doctor, while Lucinda was staying behind to stand guard on the Atlantic and Beh'Lo. The rest of the away team, minus Meyers, was to try and rescue the pilot from the underground prison. When both teams had left the Atlantic, Beh'Lo didn't seem to agree with the way he was left behind. The young boy grabbed a branch of a tree and knocked Lucinda out with it. He then followed the biggest team, as this was also the way towards his village.
Janssens and Sarin ran into Dr. Teral rather fast around 2145, but she seemed to be unable to cope with the situation and the two weren't able to reason with her. Teral Nadya started to scream, which alerted the Trazzer team nearby. Sarin took the initiative and used his Vulcan nerve pinch to calm down Teral. He then threw her over his shoulder and Janssens and Sarin ran towards the Atlantic, being chased by a Trazzer team....
The other team had quite a hike towards the entrance of the cave. After discovering Beh'Lo the team entered the caves just before 2200, taking Beh'Lo with them. A little way into the cave the team encountered a small problem as the cave was blocked by a green rock. Since there was no other way in and thus no other way to rescue the pilot, the team decided to blow up the rock by using their phasers. Once the rock was out of their way, the team and Beh'Lo went further into the cave....
In the meantime, in an holodeck simulation, created by Mariell Delari: Mariell and Pierre Dubois are racing for victory in a man to women contest of swimming. Mariell won, although it's not yet clear whether Pierre did this to gain something with Mariell. Dizzel accompanied the two in the quest for affection. Toad, Mario and Luigi Capretti were playing in the water, while Vrass and Greg were talking to Prof. Ciat. There was also some arguing heard between a medical and a security crewman, who were fighting over a woman.
