| abstract | - Lianna Young's relief at having the male crew back on her ship slowly subsides back to rage when she remembers that she hates them because of their incompetence and insubordinance. After physically assaulting a young male ensign in front of the entire bridge crew, Lianna Young retires to her quarters, with images of Edward Shield savagely killing his own father on the Bridge of the Enterprise-C flashing back into her mind. When she is sure that she is completely alone, she breaks down, tired of being at war with everyone and wishing for someone with whom she could relate. Just then, a communique from Edward Shield on the Enterprise-C brings her back into reality. He asks her if all is well, and she confides in him her wish for companionship. When he offers himself, she reminds him that, not only does he have his own duties on the Enterprise, but he's also male and she wanted another woman. He tells her that he doubts K'hallA or Rookwood would want to be THAT close to her, and also states that Yare'ma Liin was the love-slave of her counterpart in the mirror universe, which might complicate an already tense situation. Just then, both ships are struck by a sudden blast. All the lights and sensors go off, and well they come back on, they discover something bad... They're now in the past.
