Without being able to trust the Draysians, the crew of the USS Atlantis have taken precautions. The OPS, Tactical and science departments are working together to find out everything they can about the Draysians.
But... when they scanned the surface, they found out there was some sort of force field on the Draysian planet. It was obvious the Draysians didn't like to share everything with Starfleet... Now that conventional scanners can't penetrate the force field, the crew has to think about something else...
Meanwhile, the diplomatic corps, consisting of Ambassador Von Klinkerhoffen, Attaché Demetrius, and commander Gerard, are preparing to go down to the planet, to discuss the Draysians admittance to the Federation. But they keep asking themselves this one question: Why do the Draysians want to join?
