Relieved at last, the Black Hawk returns to its primary mission: rooting out the pirate haven. Captain Geisler has decided to take a more proactive role and sets course for Razmena, an independent space station not far from Gavara and Starbase Unity. What will they find?

Summary

After months of dead ends, Captain Geisler finds himself determined to approach the pirate problem from an alternate angle. He gathers three of his most trusted staff members, Commander Reynolds, Lieutenant Commander Di Pasquale, and Lieutenant Commander Geisler, in his ready room and proposes that they take the initiative by traveling to Razmena. After a discussion, it was agreed that the three, along with Doctor Monroe and Counselor Rael, split into two teams aboard the runabouts Kwando and Conchos.

In the absence of most of the senior staff, Captain Geisler directs the crew of the Black Hawk to continue with its shakedown. After all, the Akira was still fresh out of drydock and much of her systems still needed to be dialed in. The Black Hawk performs a variety of maneuvers and testing at an asteroid field, where it makes numerous adjustments to its shield harmonics and targeting sensors. The 325th, once again under the command of Commander Walsh, performs training exercises as well. By the end of the day, Captain Geisler's confidence in his crew and ship is fortified.

The Away Teams arrive at Razmena in separate runabouts, both now disguised as civilian ships. Lt. Commander Geisler's team, which includes Doctor Monroe, Counselor Rael, and security escorts, explore the station. They are met with a visage of poverty as representatives of dozens of species appear destitute and wanting. A Paradan takes notice of Doctor Monroe, but quickly backs away when Joey steps in. Her teams makes their way to a Net Girl establishment and begin to interview its workers. Joey, escorted by security, talks with a Teplan, hoping to find Kelinor's location. Doctor Monroe speaks with a Rakhari, who cautions her to avoid the Paradans. Counselor Rael meets with a Boreriri, and, while bonding over their ability to communicate telepathically, learns that basic supplies are hard to come by. Food, water, medicine, clothing, anything considered a basic essential for living is in short supply.

Meanwhile, Commander Reynolds' team starts their search in a bar. They are first engaged by a Selamat who probes their intentions. Finding them to be worthy enough, he lets them meet a purple-haired woman occupying a booth in the back of the bar. Lt. Commander Di Pasquale takes the lead and demonstrates that they have a fast ship and they're looking to join the gang. After some back and forth, the purple-haired woman gives them a Cardassian data rod and instructs them to take it deep into the station. The Away Team does so, and dodges several sketchy encounters in the process. They deliver the data rod, unopened as promised, and meet once more with the purple-haired woman. Impressed, she gives the away team a data chip which contains a set of coordinates to a fresh supply dump that needs to be tended to.

Later that evening, Commander Reynolds' team makes contact with the Black Hawk. The coordinates are shared with Captain Geisler who recognizes them as being the last known location of the USS Gaittithe, their sister ship with whom the Black Hawk was already on its way to meet. Captain Geisler does the math and realizes that in order for the pirates to have the coordinates of the ship, then it was already compromised. He decides to not alter the Black Hawk's approach and orders Commander Reynolds to take his runabout, the Kwando, and beat them to the Gaittithe as they had a chance to infiltrate the pirate gang and they couldn't afford to loose it.

The Black Hawk retrieves the Conchos and continues on to the Gaittithe's last known location. He gathers his command staff at the moment the Conchos docks and informs the senior staff of the situation.
