Summary: A choked off distress call from a Federation science vessel under command of a civilian diplomat with a chip on his shoulder brings USS Marathon into the conflict between a unique Jem'hadar First and a distraught Cardassian starship commander.

Summary: Under orders from Task Force Command to redouble efforts to meet-and-greet the new neighbors now that the Sisyphus System has been claimed for the building of Outpost Gamma-One, USS Marathon tries to make contact with a race that clearly has knowledge of advanced technology and alien life forms, but nonetheless warns off all comers with language both hostile and archaic.

Cast: Ahreen, Gwyn, Litch, Locicero, Matthews, Parsii, Poe, Rapier, Reed, Roshak, Ryn, Tralan, and Woolfe

Summary: A mission to deliver valuable medical supplies back through the wormhole to Bajor becomes something more than a 'milk run' when USS Marathon encounters two ships hostile to each other engaging in a dogfight at the entrance to the wormhole. Upon intervening in the fray to seek to move beyond it, the bridge crew of USS Marathon makes a discovery that could rock the very Celestial Temple itself.


Sequence

Summary: A simple engineering job to make the former Jem'hadar barracks on Sisyphus more livable as temporary quarters for engineers working long shifts groundside on the Gamma One construction project becomes something more complicated when some old Dominion security systems, missed in the sweeps because of the logical differences in the way Starfleet and the Dominion handle security technology, activate in a countdown to .... something.


At Ease in Zion

Independent Authority

Cast: Damon, Danzia, Dawn, Ranev, Rapier, Woolfe, and Zeran

An Accomplice in the Act

Cast: Cohen, Dare, I'diera, McCall, Rapier, Tar-Zatain, and Woolfe

Finding What We Suspect

Cast: Bensen, Decius, Meriweather, Takahashi, and Tren

Starfleet identifies the most likely base of operations as the third moon of the sixth planet in System 54221. An infiltration team is sent to arrest the criminals and subsequently shut down their mercenary operation.

Minvar Ex

Cast: Decius, Enlor, Eviess, Ivari, T'Aryl, and Tren

Summary: With Minvar's ambitions nearly leading to their extermination, the people of Vekhet decide perhaps their god-emperor isn't so godlike after all and stage his overthrow.

And Gracious In Victory We

Cast: Dawn, Eviess, Ranev, Rapier, Ryn, and Tren

Dead Naguses

Cast: McCall, Montgomery, Rapier, T'Aryl, Tren, and Zeran

Summary: Separately from the covert SI missions to infiltrate the Bajoran-descended slaves on the Hai-Stakar homeworld, an SDC-backed mission walks right through the front door of the planetary council and asks about the slaves ... but the reaction of the council is not quite what Starfleet or the Bajoran Militia expected.


The Last Mile Home
