Shore leave started out unexpectedly, with Keneth being dragged into teaching a cooking class, despite knowing nothing about the art. Other than his culinary escapades, he also spent significant amounts of time on repair work, crawling through shafts alone. He also faced his reckoning with his feelings since last mission. In a massive boil over he collapsed in his quarters, wondering if Thompson dying was really his negligence, and whether he should have overridden the science officer and have installed a lethal failsafe for the spider.
