 Kelly follows Bjornson to his office on Starbase 211; it’s an unmarked door that leads to a space overlooking the space dock. Kelly has a good view of the //Boston’s// portside hull and notes the only personal touch is a photo-realistic painting of a Japanese mountain estate in winter. Bjornson settles in behind his desk and waves Kelly to replicator if he wants to grab some breakfast. Kelly shakes his head, but appreciates the offer, and sits down in the only other chair. Bjornson says, “I apologize for dragging you here, but I wanted to talk to you without prying Bynar ears. It’s about Captain [[trek:characters:danning|Maria Danning]].” Kelly tenses, and Bjornson carefully asks if he ever met Danning’s now ex-husband, the prime suspect in her mysterious death. Kelly shakes his head and replies truthfully, “I never met the man.”
-Bjornson nods and reveals Madison Danning somehow made it off Earth without detection, which is no mean feat. However, he left a note claimed innocence, and local authorities have reason to believe his claim is actually genuine. Kelly frowns and then Bjornson states, “I now have to ask you about Ensign [[trek:characters:ludivico|Hector Ludivico]].” Kelly looks at the SI agent blankly, and Bjornson grunts, “Well, that answers that. Ensign Ludivico was Captain Danning’s… friend.” Things click into place for Kelly, and they dance around Maria Danning’s decade-old ‘indiscretions.’ Bjornson then says, “Ensign Ludivico’s career has suffered due to his prior association. More importantly, he’s AWOL – and vanished on the same day of Captain Danning’s death.”

More importantly, he’s AWOL – and vanished on the same day of Captain Danning’s death.”
 Kelly goes stock-still as he processes the implications, and then carefully asks, “Why are you telling me this?” Bjornson sighs and replies, “We have reason to believe one or both men are heading here, to this region, possibly to seek you out. What I’m about to say next will be in Klingon, which you don’t speak.” He then outlines SI’s theory – in perfect Federation Standard – that the Orion Syndicate is involved. Captain Danning would be targeted for blackmail because of her indiscretions, and SI believes she was killed after refusing. Ensign Ludivico’s career stalled after the affair became known, so he was another disaffected officer the Syndicate could target. Kelly gets angrier as Bjornson outlines their theory, but he realizes it makes perfect sense. Bjornson the changes tack and asks about some of Kelly’s old surveys and studies, as the Syndicate seems very interested in his research – and Setlik III.
