Host SM_Darlene says:
Prelude: Last time on ACTD Kootenai Station...

The crew met in the briefing room on the San Carlo to discuss the situation on Trandarus II.

Since they didn't have a clue as to where the pirate base of operations was, that Commander. Rr'Vellan would put the word out through her underground contacts that the San Carlo had the vaccine for the Florox virus hoping to lure the pirates to the ship.

At the same time, the senior staff under the command of XO Commander. Spicer would take two distressed shuttles loaded with weapons and supplies and try to infiltrate the pirate organization through an undercover Starfleet Intelligence officer who is planted within the pirate organization.

The engineering team under the command of CEO Commander Corjet has completed the distressing of the shuttles and loading of the supplies.  The crew is preparing to depart the San Carlo to rendezvous with the undercover agent.

Time lapse: 27 hours.
