 Back in main engineering, K'tral and T'kora simply stare at each other, forcing several junior engineers to divert around them. K'tral stands with her hands behind her back to hide her burn scars but notices several micro-expressions on T'kora's face.((The utter irony here is T'kora isn't too hot on her own species and they're actually very similar in temperament.)) K'tral asks suddenly, "Have you met Lieutenant Ssleestak?" T'kora replies in the negative, so K'tral continues, "I've known him since the Academy. He may be fragrant and frustrating, but when it comes to engineering, he is a genius. He is my friend and I trust him with my life. And this ship is very unorthodox." She shifts her posture so her burn scars are visible.
-T'kora raises her eyebrow a millimeter and replies, "Your loyalty is admirable. And the crew of the //USS Boston// is also... unorthodox." K'tral asks suddenly, "Have you spoken to [[trek:characters:sola|Sola]] about this?" T'kora says, "No. My understanding is your AI is... unpredictable and occasionally quarrelsome." In response, Sola immediately starts playing //It's a Small World After All// as recorded by the Federation's Children's Chorus. Mel walks in and mutters, "Someone's feeling better." Sola retorts quietly, //"I have been informed I am occasionally unpredictable and quarrelsome. I'm just leaning into it."// Mel shakes her head as she approaches the main table, but then notices the Bynars are singing along – and other than K'tral, she doesn't recognize a single engineer here.((Ensign Yaden went to coordinate the repairs of the micro-breaches.))

 K'tral calls out, "Captain, per Ssleestak's request, please don't touch anything." That visibly startles T'kora and she asks, "Why not?" Mel replies with an airy wave, "It's fine. You replace one power thingy upside down and you get a reputation." T'kora stares at her incredulously for a split-second before she silently hands Mel the padd with the schedule. Mel stares blankly at the padd as T'kora starts running down the inefficiencies, but the Vulcan stops when she realizes Mel has utterly no clue what she's looking at. Mel announces, "There's a lot of engineering... stuff." K'tral holds her hand out for the padd and skims T'kora's schedule – and stops when she realizes the other Vulcan has indeed found some inefficiencies.

 ==== Lowly Males ====
 There is a moment of grim silence on the bridge, until [[trek:characters:shantaar|Shan'taar]] interjects, "Captain, I know I'm only a lowly male, but I do wish to report our hull repairs are fifty percent completed in only ten minutes. We should be tow-capable in ninety minutes." Mel snorts but nods. Meanwhile, Phillip spends some time repairing the minor breaches in the //Solstice// and then ducks away to send the message to his parents. Fal remains on the bridge, trying – and failing – to ignore the diplomatic crisis. As the last tritanium plate is sealed in place, Ssleestak finds Commander T'kora to thank her and to kibosh a bit. He apologizes for the cinnamon smell, but T'kora replies cryptically, "At least it's not Terran lavender."

+=====Summary=====
+With the other senior officers asleep, K’tral takes command of the repairs and clashes with Commander T’kora of the //U.S.S. Boston// over Ssleestak’s schedule. Mel is drawn in, but K’tral realizes T’kora’s corrections are more efficient and apologizes. Vrax discharges Peel to Phillip’s care while Fal tries to distract the Bynars at Sola’s request. The senior officers – and Jen Kras – gather for staff meeting; Saval runs down the damage and shows them footage of the space battle – including the destruction of the //Nova//-class //U.S.S. Solstice// and the arrival of the //Akira//-class //U.S.S. Solstice-A//! Jen warns them of another disaster looming in the next five days and tells Phillip to send a message to his parents, so they call in sick next Tuesday – and Sola already has something queued up. Phillip heads out to weld and avoid Jessa. Ssleestak works with Tor, the chief engineer of the //Montgomery Scott//, who proposes a radical way to temporarily repair the //Solstice// – with phasers. Mel signs off but ends up talking to Zivan, who demands her son and the Wabai be turned over to her before the Solstice departs. Zug does not want to go and drunkenly tells his mother he is declaring his independence and the Wabai have applied for political asylum with the Federation – which is the first Galan’noor has heard if this. Mel realizes Zug isn’t truly free on Kordikar. Jessa leads Zug and Galan’noor to sickbay while Zivan cuts the channel.
