Mariner and Boimler are tasked with escorting a Klingon General to Tulgana IV, but they lose him when he gets drunk and steals their shuttle.

Back on the Cerritos, Rutherford tries out a bunch of different jobs to change his schedule so he can watch a pulsar with Tendi.

I summarize the plot and point out and explain all the references so you don’t have to.

This is a complete re-issue done in my current format.
