'''[[Between the Rock and a Hard Place (Columbia)]]''': | '''[[Between the Rock and a Hard Place (Columbia)|"Between the Rock and a Hard Place"]]''': Arriving aboard the Columbia while on assignment in orbit of [[Piktar system/Piktar II|Piktar II]], the new ensign was put to work immediately by [[Livingston, Bejamin| Captain Bejamin Livingston]] to help decipher a musical communication transmitted by a [[Ferengi]] vessel also operating within the Piktar System. The communication was discovered to be a delivery system that housed a dangerous artificial intelligence/cybernetic lifeform called Providence that used Columbia's holo-emitters to appear as seven year old human girl. Theo and security officer [[Tatash|Ensign Tatash]] managed to initiate first contact with Providence who revealed her purpose was to integrate a weapons system known as 'Mercy' into her programme and that she was initially created to care for starship crews before having her programming perverted. Theo and Tatash helped Captain Livingston persuade Providence into helping them instead of carrying out her mission. However, her creator began to decompile her programme having been apprehended by an away team on Piktar II, and Theo was only able to save 10% of her original programming. Discovering that [[Starfleet]] had sanctioned Providence's creation and that a secret sub-section of the organisation had carried out the subsequent modifications, Theo was deeply troubled although he was counselled by fellow engineer [[Oori, Nuvia|Nuvia Oori]]. For his efforts during the mission he received a promotion to Lieutenant (Junior Grade). | ||
