With all of the stress of the previous missions behind them, the crew of Starbase 118 was able to relax into their normal duties. Of course on SB118, this meant that they only had to deal with a corps of reporters who wanted to know all that had happened recently. Some of whom went above and beyond literally, as they slipped into secure areas to find a tooth from the dragon-like creatures encountered previously. Delia Ailed, the reporter in question, met with another reporter Mr. Jiph to share that information. Newly promoted Captain Walker went down to speak to them, looking to arrange a face to face between them and the Captain. Things didn't go as well as they might have, Walker answering the questions honestly, but not fully... and the reporters recognizing the game and being more deliberate in their questions. A telling question about the people lost and injured ended the game, with Walker sharing the information on a later interview with the Captain. Looking for more open responses, Ailed met with Commander Breeman. Going so far as to claim she was there to walk his dog, then use that to speak to him. Still hurting from the losses on the ship, he shared far more openly the situation.
Meanwhile, the freighter "Astrolabe" docked and requested emergency repairs. The medicine they are carrying "Vitali 7" a medical substance that if fresh can be of great use to combat a romulan epidemic. And if expired, becomes a hallucinagenic drug worth quite a bit on the black market. While the freighter's crew leaves, the station's engineering crew finds that the ship itself was held together by luck and baling wire.. and the baling wire just snapped. A faulty sensor allowed an explosion to occur on the ship, thankfully not wounding anyone but knocking loose some of the Vitali 7. Something that appears to have expired!
And rounding out the chaos, and showing up with perfect timing, a Romulan fleet large enough to threaten the station has arrived and demands the release of the medicine.

A romulan fleet outside, reporters getting into everything, a freighter being repaired then exploding. Unfortunately, someone in the crew thought "At least it can't get worse". Some of the crew, investigating the Astrolabe to help survivors and determine the reason, were exposed to the expired drug. A drug that when expired acts like a recreational hallucinagenic in humans. Combined with multiple secondary explosions, sickbay was busy. At the same time, theAstrolabe's First Officer and crew met outside the ship to discuss mutiny. Ensign Mandany Rose, one of the station's counselors, tried to keep things calm. Unfortunately, things escalated when the freighter's Captain arrived. A fight broke out, ending when the freighter's captain threatened Ensign MGia to talk to Captain Nicholotti. They met, and MGia was injured as she knocked the freighter captain out.
