Its been a few days since the Cerritos found a mini starfleet ship inside the nanites and now there's been another rift going on near the Klingon space. Mariner decided to volunteer for investigation with a help of a Klingon friend as we see Ma'ah arriving to town to deliver drinks.

Klingon: You're late. I've had nothing to serve but bahgol. These drunks are too sober to brawl.

Ma'ah: The day's harvest was arduous.

K'elarra: Ma'ah?

Ma'ah notice one of his friends is here.

K'elarra: When did you return? I heard you were given command.

Ma'ah: K'Elarra. I-I did not expect to see you in this pugh gegh.

Klingons: Hey.

K'elarra: The thrash lute player asked me to watch his performance.

Ma'ah: So, you are in par'Mach with him?

K'elarra: Ha. Don't make me laugh. I'm much more attracted to captains.

Malor: Ha. If only there was a captain here.

Ma'ah: Silence, Malor!

K'elarra: What does he mean?

Ma'ah: I was stripped of my captaincy for allowing my crew to mutiny.

Malor: The whole family was shamed. It was hilarious.

K'elarra: Well, I'm sure you captained with honor. I remember you always screaming about honor. It was hot.

Malor: Ma'ah also screamed this morning when he was headbutted by a small targ.

K'elarra: (To Ma'ah.) If you were to regain your command, you would be captain of a new ship?

Malor: Don't count on that. Ma'ah killed Bargh's brother.

K'elarra gasp before Ma'ah explains why.

Ma'ah: Dorg was a traitor to the Empire. I have no regrets.

Malor: (Laughs.) I'll bet his brother does.

Ma'ah: Enough!

Ma'ah was about to beat up his brother, but K'elarra stops him for a moment.

K'elarra: A Klingon is not defined by rank.

They were both happy until Mariner, YN, and Boimler.

Mariner: Oh, sh-t, if it isn't my old cha'Dich. Why you been ducking my calls, pal?
