'''[[SB118Ops Mission Logs/Sal Taybrim/Once More, With Feeling|''Once More, With Feeling'']]''': Sal throws Baylen a surprise party for his birthday on one of the station's many holodecks. The programme is a recreation of the Starship Armstrong at the turn of the 24th century. Theo signs on to play the role of the ship's Chief Engineer. Within moments they are thrust into Klingon space in a time when a Federation starship inside Imperial borders is seen as an act of war. Theo detects a surge of neutron radiation- a tell tale sign of a cloaked ship- and suggests that the Klingon's may have been experimenting with tele-capture technology which results. He quickly jury rigs the navigational deflector to emit an ionic pulse which would disable any cloaked vessels nearby and then proposes the idea to 'Captain Anders'. Theo is subsequently intoxicated by an aerosolised form of Golden Dew and begins to sing spontaneously. As the effects of the Golden Dew wears off, Theo begins to suffer the effects of a hangover, although he works through them to suggest that they rewrite the errant holodeck program so they can reactive the holodeck program and does so with the help of new engineering officer [[Carter Greyson]]. Eventually the program is shut down and he is present when [[Chennel]] materialises on the holodeck to warn the crew not to interfere with her operations. After she disappears, Theo is put is in charge of a team to work out what happened Lieutenant [[Trellis Vondaryan]], who did not materialise with the rest of them once the program ended. They realise he has been somehow phased slightly out of normal vision and Ensign Greyson finds an old log from the Enterprise-D and works with the other members of team to implement it- while Theo feels out of sorts, since he is used to being in the thick of it and not delegating. Once Vondaryan is phased back, Theo is then tasked with investigating a goth club in The Dungeon with the newly arrived tactical officer Lieutenant [[Diego Beyett]], a former shipmate from the Columbia. They are refused entry by the bouncer and are forced to make a covert entrance via a malfunctioning ventilation shaft, where Theo expresses his distaste with goth music. The two meet up with Lieutenant's [[Trel'lis]] and [[Zinna]] as well as Marine Captain Raymond Hughes and discover a hidden access tunnel to an unmarked area of the station known as 'The Below'. Shortly after, they encounter a Pelian who traps them in a slaver's courtyard, where the weapons emplacements kill Hughes. After disabling them via an overloaded phaser, Theo captures the Pelian again. Returning to the now abandonned goth club, he has to stop Major [[Tatash]] from acting rashly to avenge Hughes. | '''[[SB118Ops Mission Logs/Sal Taybrim/Once More, With Feeling|''Once More, With Feeling'']]''': Sal throws Baylen a surprise party for his birthday on one of the station's many holodecks.

'''The Show Must Go On''': Theo expresses excitement at the prospect of Lady Shadonna- his favourite singer- performing on the station and arranges for most of the senior staff to attend the concert with him. When Shadonna's transport breaks down on the independent world of New Scotland, [[Sal Taybrim|Taybrim]] orders Theo to lead an away team to bring the diva to the station. Arriving at the New Scotland colony, the XO is dismayed to realise that reports of her diva-like behaviour have not been exaggerated. Shortly afterwards, the away team, Shadonna and her manager- Basil Hobbs- are attacked by Orions using a Ferengi vessel and are knocked out by a boarding party. Coming to, Theo quickly makes sure that everyone is alright and when the leaders of the Orions suggest torturing the Lady Shadonna, he nobly volunteers himself instead. He is tortured repeatedly by an Orion woman known as Yillara Khante, who he deliberately provokes and calls a 'second rate Chennel'. Despite his agony, he manages to break free thanks to rusted pipe and regroups with his away team- who have also managed to escape. They eventually end up in the Krayvet's computer core, where Theo assigns Ensign [[Taelon]] to sabotage the ship as much as he can. During a firefight with the Orions, he is injured further and witnesses Lieutenant Commander [[Kaitlyn Falcon]] killing Khante in a bloody and brutal fight between the two women. He has to force himself past his injuries to remain conscious- finally suucumbing to them after they are rescued by a team led by Lieutenant Commander [[Trellis Vondaryan]]. He comes to in the USS Albion's sickbay several hours later. | '''The Show Must Go On''': Theo expresses excitement at the prospect of Lady Shadonna- his favourite singer- performing on the station and arranges for most of the senior staff to attend the concert with him.

He comes to in the USS Albion's sickbay several hours later where it becomes obvious that he is struggling to come terms with what has happened. In a conversation with Captain Taybrim, he expresses his desire to the resign from Starfleet life- but agrees to hold off on a final decision until he has thought it through with a clearer head. | ||
