Meanwhile, Uhura has been doing her rotation with Engineering and enduring the bristly Hemmer’s pop quizzes on the atmospheric processor. Una is hurt, and orders La’an to the bridge to help where the security chief convinces a skeptical Pike… it’s the Gorn! The captain has his Ackbar moment and takes his new acting first officer’s advice to retreat and “level the playing field.” He orders the crippled ship into the dense toxic atmosphere of a brown dwarf where they will have no shields, sensors, or coms, and the ship risks being crushed… “Perfect.” With a transport tube deployed they can’t raise shields, which Pike realizes in horror as the aliens destroy the cargo ship and severely damage Enterprise. La’an’s Reptiley Sense tingles hearing a girl’s story of “monsters,” quickly warning the captain of a hidden ship, which is immediately found heading right for them. Led by a professor, the remaining Finibusians tell a hazy story of an attack from an unknown enemy. In space, Pike encounters some frightened colonists on a struggling cargo ship and agrees to allow them to dock. Adding to the mystery, Number One’s landing party only finds evidence of a massacre, complete with bloody drag marks… and no bodies. The Enterprise is on a routine mission to deliver a much-needed atmospheric processor to a Federation colony while the ship celebrates Starfleet Remembrance Day to honor “those who made the ultimate sacrifice.” Since La’an won the gold in Tragic Backstories, she doesn’t join in on the pin-wearing tradition, telling Una “There’s is no point in looking back.” At Finibus III, they discover a colony gone silent and a destroyed satellite.
