The Surgewalkers have been defeated. This is curious… I am detecting another power spike on a nearby planet. The source of the outages, perhaps?

We should investigate.

It appears that the capacitors overloaded. A power spike, likely during the last outage. It is a simple fix.

Oh, wonderful! Without our backup generator, another outage could undo a huge amount of our work. Many of our experiments require precise temperature and light settings, you see.

If you can get it back up and running, I would appreciate it ever so much.

Oh! That’s a new face. What brings you to our research station?

Gathering data for star charts. This is quite an isolated area for a research station. What do you study here?

We’re a biologist and a botanist. We’re researching efficient food production practices. More relevant than ever, perhaps.

It wasn’t always this quiet out here, but a spate of surges happened nearby, and most everyone cleared out. Afraid of Surgewalkers.

We’ll leave when – if – we have to. Now, since you’re here, how about you make yourself useful? We’ve been having trouble with our equipment. Outages on and off since those surges started.

Our main backup generator just died. I’m no mechanic – maybe you’ll have more luck with it.

I am detecting a Surgewalker ship in the system, Commander. Perhaps Dr. Fay is correct, and surges are causing the outages.

Something to ponder later. The Surgewalkers are on an intercept course. Raising shields!

No, no, no. That’s not right. The C/H ratio should be at least 6. And look at those monosaccharide profiles!

Someone who’s going to help us with our power problem.

Power? Oh, yes. Much appreciated… Now what if I made just a tiny adjustment to this sequence? Increase hydrogen output at a cellular level. Could that work?

Not much of a conversationalist, our Frederick. Brilliant, though. While we’re waiting, would like a tour of the– Ah!

Alright, well, be safe! I should go help Freddie with his latest revelation. Be a dear and let us know what you find.

Thank you, Independent, though I fear we’ll be back to square one soon. Unless someone has figured out a way to fix the anomaly, that is.

Unlikely. Perhaps your outages warrant further investigation. Might we wait and observe one?

Certainly! Follow me to the lab. Frederick will be excited for some company.

We, erm, we’re sorry about the outages. It’s just, we’re stranded here and were trying to open a path home.

Oh, you poor dears. All is forgiven, of course. Many of your people have gotten stranded here, and I haven’t heard of anyone who has managed to get back.

Well, you seem like enterprising sorts. Do you happen to have any interest in botany? I could use some extra hands around here.

We can learn! Can’t we, Adani?

Yeah, I guess.

It’s settled then. You can stay here as my assistants – only for as long as you like, of course. Perhaps you can keep working on finding a way home.

The Surgewalkers? Yes. What is going on here? I am detecting a huge amount of unstable power emanating from your ship.

Our shipwreck, you mean. Our own fault, really. We were studying the spatial anomaly on our side and got sucked right through. You’re the first person we’ve seen in… A while.

We’ve been trying everything we can think of to get back. Jerry-rigged this antimatter beam from our warp engine.

I told you it wouldn’t work. You can just punch a hole through spacetime.

Yes, you can. Just maybe not like this. Anyway, it seems a lot easier to get from there to here than the other way around.

Indeed. Your efforts to get back home have been causing outages at a nearby research station.

It’s not like it was working, anyway… Yes. I think we’re done here. Could you take us to this research station so we can apologize in person?
