CNS Logaan Woods has a waking dream in his office at the end of his
meeting with CSO Mercedes McCarter. In the dream, the two of them are
running away from an armed mob. After taking a wrong turn and finding
themselves in a dead end, Logaan uses a Vulcan neck pinch to put
Mercedes out, then removes a nearby vent grate so he can slip her limp
body into the vent duct. He then replaces the grate and begins looking
around for a weapon. He doesn't find one in time, though the enraged
crowd does pause while one of its members demands of him where Mercedes
got to. When he simply, defiantly replies that she is gone, they begin
to cudgel and lash him with a variety of weapons and, though
he does manage to kill one of them, a particularly fierce blow breaks
his arm and keeps him from doing much even to defend himself. They
eventually tire of beating on his unresponsive body and leave in time to
miss Mercedes emerging from the vent. She sees Logaan right away and
rushes over and begins primative first aid when her commbadge indicates
Unable to Contact. With his unswollen eye, Logaan looks at her as she
works and tells her he loves her. She protests, saying anyone who loves
her gets hurt. He ignores that and asks her to take care of his adopted
sister, Sarah. She insists he will be fine as soon as they get to
Sickbay, but they both know that won't happen in time. When he dies,
she cries over him, then appears to be considering suicide with the
knife she always carries when the real Mercedes literally snaps Logaan
out of his daze. He assures her he is alright, but she leads him to the
Lounge anyway, concerned about his unhealthily pale color. Yossarian
McCater sees them come in and makes his way over to ask his twin sister
if there is any further news on Nengie, the Merlog demon Mercedes and
Logaan are prophesied to save the Merlog from. There aren't any new
developements, though CSciO Jur Lehron is still working with Sarah Woods
to see how she might be able to help in their apocalyptic struggle.
Worried, Yossarian returns to his piano playing duties. Mercedes uses
the opening to ask again about the trance he slipped into. Instead of
answering her question, Logaan pulls out something he wrote when he was
19(before knowing a thing about Nengie) and passes it to her to read. It
talks about an ancient civilization of people who speak without making
sounds and move without bodies who are, nevertheless, dying. It also
talks about Nengie and the need to defeat him. After she reads
the jotted notes, Logaan also says he knows what the chant in her dream
means, but says he's going to need to get them drunk before he will be
able to tell her.

Bordaq tries to extract the meaning of the 'map' from Maggy, but all
shesays is "jay knows". With that, she disappears, as does the map.
After the spiny alien vessel has scanned the Horizon, all systems except
the warp engines mysteriously come back online. Sensors pick up the
Meade's shuttle nearby. Keeping a close eye on the alien vessel (whose
spines are reforming into warp nacelles, but which remains quiet for the
rest), the crew moves within transporter range and beams the shuttle's
two occupants to sickbay. There, CMO Threin has just begun surgery on
the captain's wife. In the meantime, CEO Kuaar heads up to the bridge to
discuss the situation with the captain.

*****************
The CURIE and NIGHTINGALE continue their joint mission.
Ensign Stryker, CSciO, has a phobic reaction and shows up in CURIE's
Sickbay. Dr Poynton gives him a mild tranquilizer and Stryker sleeps
for a while. Goose is still recovering from a period of blindness.
LtCmdr Stuart drops a couple of probes to keep an eye on the gas-giant
and the origin of the conduit, then moves NIGHTINGALE into orbit around
Nescio. Stuart, Thayer, and T'Mal beam over to the CURIE for a joint
strategy session. Kersh and Dryden fabricate local clothing to be used
by any Away Teams. Goals of the mission's intervention on Nescio to
recover the TASMANIA and limit any cultural contamination are worked
out. Afterward the CURIE does a quick scan of the planet's weather
system and determines the location of the thickest of the atmospheric
dust particles. A Class 3 probe is launched to observe TASMANIA's
location. Clearly visible is someone in local garb walking with the
downed ship's crew.
Alex, a Starfleet Intel officer undercover on the CURIE, makes contact
with her controllers. She has been unsuccessful in diverting the CURIE
and NIGHTINGALE from Nescio. Unfortunately, it appears she has her own
agenda and there is not much the distant Intel controllers can do about
it.
Meanwhile on Mrell runabout, Alyza discusses with Canon her feeling that
Mrell might do more harm to their separate mission than anticipated.
Canon reassures her that Mrell will indeed be an asset.
