The crew of the U.S.S. Lexington arrives at an uninhabited moon. As they wait for Starfleet’s follow-up orders, an unexpected coronal flare from the nearby star causes the ship to temporarily shut down – and reveals that the tech on the moon’s surface isn’t derelict or disabled. As the ship is repaired, Pruitt expresses a chilling but far-fetched tale of possession and evil technology, while Admiral Stoker confides that Starfleet cannot be fully trusted on this matter.
