The slowdown from the previous stop makes them miss their window, but not the Aledo… cue Buenamigo’s maniacal victory laughter. The next stop is tricky, as it’s one of those “ Brigadoon-type” planets that only phase in a couple of hours a year. Turns out it was a trick of a tricorder, but the delay puts them behind the Aledo’s dropoff driveby. On the next planet, the Cerritosians quickly set up an outpost but have to stop when Tendi thinks she may have found some life on the supposedly lifeless rock. The race starts off well, Billups running the operation like a drill sergeant, but then the Aledo shows up and just drops a big pre-fab power station. Aww, Big Bear.Ĭarol challenges her old friend to a “second contact race” to determine the fate of the Cali fleet, so the Cerritos crew rallies for a multi-stop mission, with Tendi fretting about their chances, Boimler panicking over things ending badly with Shaxs, and Sam still staring at his PADD.
Missing Mariner and feeling guilty over not supporting her more before she left the ship, Boimler breaks up the trio’s mood by doing some spot-on impressions of the bridge officers… unfortunately Shaxs comes in right when Brad’s nailing him, sending the big Bajoran off angry-crying. Word quickly works its way to three remaining ensigns (via “gossip king” Towel Guy, who knew?) who start to freak out about being reassigned, although Rutherford is oddly fascinated by the Texas-class ship’s cool code. In a surprise move, Admiral Buenamigo gets Starfleet Command to put his fancy new automated Texas-class ships in charge of second contact duty, with the Calis being decommissioned. And Captain Freeman finds herself not only defending Project Swing By’s ill-fated test run, but the future of the California-class itself. WARNING: Spoilers below! RECAP “We’re doing this for the entire class!”Īfter the Breen banged it up bad last week, the Cerritos is back home getting patched up. How can a guy with “buena” in his name not actually be good?
