Welcome to the verbenaVerse

Phillip works on scaling up his delodestoning project. Fal gets sucked into the scientific discussion about the subspace tear. Phillip brings a proposal to Fal, which includes a potential to get them home. K'tral assists Jessa with counseling. Jen 'bakes' a fake Orb of Prophecy and Change in the warp core, dramatically increasing their speed and setting another Starfleet record. Jen sends K'tral, Ssleestak, and Jessa back in time to February 18th, 2371, to swap the Orbs; they're gone for ten seconds. The Varich and the Agincourt intercept each other and Mel matches wits with the changeling, who is posing as Commander S'ten! Ssleestak, K'tral, and Jessa can see the Orb inside the false S'ten and warn Mel. Mel reveals the deception as Jen summons the Orb of Contemplation; the Orb rips out of the changeling's chest and hurls itself onto the Varich. The changeling escapes into the life support ducts, but Jessa, K'tral, and Ssleestak can still track it.
