'''Terminal Velocity''': In early 2394,a freighter is destroyed after faulty engine parts were purchased from traders linked to the Jenatris Tri-Star Racing Confederation (who are believed to be another front for the Orion Syndicate) and the crew are assigned to go undercover to trace the faulty parts to their source to prevent anymore lost freighters. Theo is assigned to command the Columbia and remain in contact with the ground teams, led by Captain Taybrim. Theo objects to the idea of his CO placing himself in danger, but his objections are overruled. Columbia conceals itself within the Azaris Nebula, which masks it from prying sensors. However, the ship then receives a distress call from a striken Klingon battlecruiser which has ran into trouble in a nearby star system. Aware that regulations mandate that a ship ''must'' respond to any distress call, Theo orders the ship to render aid, but is extremely suspicious given that the Klingon ship is apparently in a system flooded with a kind of radiation that renders Columbia's sensors virtually unuseable. Arriving at the source of the distress call, Columbia discovers that a derelict Klingon freighter is emitting the radiation and they are attacked by three Orion vessels. They disable two while one makes their escape. Theo then learns of a mole aboard the Columbia who may have compromised the mission, who escapes from sickbay, causing the XO to lead a team to apprehend him. Theo convinces the mole to come in quietly, but refuses to guarantee a request for political asylum, assigning the interrogation to Major Dal and Counsellor T'Sai Reyes. When the mole- revealed to be a Romulan operative called Dhiov is murdered by a second infiltrator- who is also killed due to his use of experimental and dangerous technology, Theo orders the ship back to Geneva VI. In order to get there as quickly as possible, he orders the Nebula-class ship to drop out of warp ''within'' the atmosphere, and is assisted by a new science officer, Ensign Thaddeus Peril. At the conclusion of the mission, he asks Chief of Science Lieutenant Taelon on a date, having developed feelings for him. | '''Terminal Velocity''': In early 2394,a freighter is destroyed after faulty engine parts were purchased from traders linked to the Jenatris Tri-Star Racing Confederation (who are believed to be another front for the Orion Syndicate) and the crew are assigned to go undercover to trace the faulty parts to their source to prevent anymore lost freighters.

'''The Edge Of Glory''': Theo is placed in temporary command of Starbase 118 when Captain Taybrim and Major Tatash are called to testify against Renzon, one of the suspects from the previous mission, at the Embassy of Raskor I. Three weeks later, he discovers that the station will be hit by an unusually powerful neutronic storm and that its civilian population and most of the Starfleet contingent will need to be evacuated. He and the senior staff are also tasked with studying the storm while inside it and to play host to a group of scientists. The evacuation goes off without a hitch and all the remaining crew are inoculated against the radiolytic isotapes inside the storm, Theo included. Three hours after the station is 'swallowed' by the storm, he discovers an undamaged Orion dreadnought riding in the storm currents. The crew do not have time to respond before they are boarded by a team of pirates led by [[Chennel]]. She claims the station for herself, but thanks to Lieutenant [[Aitas]]'s quick thinking, the senior staff are beamed from The Hub into an Industrial Refrigerated Unit in the Commercial Sector. Once they escape, Theo splits the staff into group, instructing them to begin foiling Chennel's attempt to control the station. He tells Major [[Ishreth Dal]] and Lieutenant Commander [[Trel'lis]] that they will attempt to buy some time and attempt to negociate with the self styled pirate queen. Using the Commercial's Sector subway station to evade capture, the trio are almost killed when Chennel activates one of the maglev trams and attempts to run them over. Making for Theo's apartment where he plans to use it's holographic communicator, they are foiled again when his apartment is destroyed in a powerful explosion- Chennel already foreseeing what he was going to do. | |||
