Despite protests from both Starfleet officers and countless attempts to convince the Paak people that everything was a misunderstanding due to miscommunication all their words fell on deaf ears. To make it worse their hearing was in no less than three hours time! | Despite protests from both Starfleet officers and countless attempts to convince the Paak people that everything was a misunderstanding due to miscommunication all their words fell on deaf ears.

In an act of defiance for their unfair and potentially unlawful lack of preparation time or defence the officers showed up to their tribunal<ref>https://groups.google.com/g/sb118-amity/c/tqugWGp6NfQ/m/JxQGQ41ZAQAJ</ref> without their communication instruments, resulting in an uproar from the court and the Magistrate charging Commander Ukinix with contempt of court and interning him for the remainder of the tribunal hearings, leaving Lt. Commander Hopper alone to weather the storm where she learned an alarming fact about the Paak's Warp Tests they had investigated - they never happened. | In an act of defiance for their unfair and potentially unlawful lack of preparation time or defence the officers showed up to their tribunal <ref>https://groups.google.com/g/sb118-amity/c/tqugWGp6NfQ/m/JxQGQ41ZAQAJ</ref> without their communication instruments, resulting in an uproar from the court and the Magistrate charging Commander Ukinix with contempt of court and interning him for the remainder of the tribunal hearings, leaving Lt.

Enroute to the Paak System progress was made by the officers aboard the Independence-B in their respective tasks. The science team headed by the acting Chief Ikaia Wong made some interesting but unfounded theories regarding the Paak language, theorising that the universal translator is taking far longer time than allowed for the translations resulting in severe miscommunication and that it might be due to a tonal differences in their language. So the science team continues to try and fine tune the UT to respond to these differences. | Enroute to the Paak System progress was made by the officers aboard the Independence-B in their respective tasks.

The bridge crew aboard the Independence-B awoke to a Fantastical Recreation of the Reconciliation Forums of Betazed <ref>https://groups.google.com/g/sb118-amity/c/PpMTKAGoy80/m/KyMtpmAPJwAJ</ref> where they were greeted by interpretations of [[Naminae Vataix]] and [[Sky Blake]], who referred to each other as 'Watchers'. Held against their will the bridge crew were subjected to the examination of these Watchers who deemed them contradictory to their statements. Questioned individually one by one it was later deemed the crew's contradictions unsolved but not to be judged and they were returned to their ship. | The bridge crew aboard the Independence-B awoke to a Fantastical Recreation of the Reconciliation Forums of Betazed <ref>https://groups.google.com/g/sb118-amity/c/PpMTKAGoy80/m/KyMtpmAPJwAJ</ref> where they were greeted by interpretations of [[Naminae Vataix]] and [[Sky Blake]], who referred to each other as 'Watchers'.

Meanwhile on the planet's surface the tribunal had gone ahead with both the prosecution and defence arguing fiercely over what was to be done with the Starfleet Officers and their Ambassador. All officers were cleared of charges with the exception of Ambassador Vataix who was sentenced to a standard one cycle course for non-military Paak, meanwhile both Commander Ukinix and Lieutenant Iko were sentenced to twenty cycles of entry level training for any citizens that join the Paak Military. | Meanwhile on the planet's surface the tribunal <ref>https://groups.google.com/g/sb118-amity/c/6w8ZsnlUQDs/m/Xpq7vFrqAAAJ</ref> had gone ahead with both the prosecution and defence arguing fiercely over what was to be done with the Starfleet Officers and their Ambassador.

With all legal matters resolved the other crew members returned to the Independence-B and returned to Amity Outpost to wait out the return of their comrades. | With all legal matters resolved the other crew members returned to the Independence-B and returned to Amity Outpost to wait out the return of their comrades. | ||
