 Alandra calls out cheerfully, "They're armed with photonic-tipped missiles and laser cannons, captain. Best guess is that we'd likely die of old age before they penetrated our shields." Aaron nods as he eyes the hybrid-ship, and then Slaal announces, "We are being hailed." Aaron gestures for her to patch it through, and then the image of three male Pakleds appears on the screen, one clearly covered in grease and soot. The [[trek:characters:slorrod|lead Pakled]] says, //"We cannot go."// Aaron identifies himself and his ship, but the Pakled doesn't reciprocate; he only states, //"You are smart. You can make us go."//  Alandra calls out cheerfully, "They're armed with photonic-tipped missiles and laser cannons, captain.

-Kelly has an idea and claims part of the science station. Slaal looks on with interest as Kelly successfully hacks the Pakleds' internal sensor grid and discovers several relevant pieces of information. The first – and most aggravating – is that the internal sensor array is linked to the hybrid ship's waste extraction system, and is primarily focused on the captain's shiny rock collection. Second, there are maybe two dozen Pakleds aboard. Third, the warp core shutdown is due to a misaligned junction. A halfway competent engineer can fix the junction and restart the warp core easily enough. +Kelly has an idea and claims part of the science station.

 Kelly gestures to get Aaron's attention, and then mutes the channel with the Pakled ship. He outlines his findings and Shil'vala reluctantly volunteers to lead an away team. T'kora eyes Kelly's readings and estimates she'll need three engineers with her to make repairs in the most efficient manner possible. Aaron stipulates that a security team will accompany them. He gets an idea and says, "You'll have to take a shuttle over anyway, so go in full hazmat suits and let's have the Pakleds go to someplace safe from the radiation. Like their brig. Tell them the radiation will only increase until it's fixed." Kimball agrees and volunteers to lead the security detail personally. Aaron approves, and tells Kelly to keep a sharp eye on the sensors. Kelly gestures to get Aaron's attention, and then mutes the channel with the Pakled ship.

-They reestablish the channel with the Pakleds and Kelly tries to explain the radiation, but it's clear it isn't connecting. The Pakled captain refers to radiation as "sick stuff" but Kelly starts calling it "bad air." That seems to register, so Kelly explains the need for his crew to shelter in safety while Starfleet sends a repair party. The Pakled captain taps his chest and rumbles, //"Slorrod. I have suit. I will show them."// He gestures to Aaron, who repeats his full name and rank. Slorrod simply replies, //"A-ron,"// and Aaron sighs, realizing this is all he's going to get.+They reestablish the channel with the Pakleds, and Kelly tries to explain the radiation, but it's clear it isn't connecting.
