Cain contacted Starfleet HQ, chief engineer {{n|Roshanara|Rahman}} and science officer {{n|Ian|West}} worked to overcome the malfunctions. After one of Rahman’s engineers {{n|Rick|Rawden}} suffered an injury, the source of the malfunctions was discovered to be an artificial entity that had spread itself through the ship’s computer network, making use of the ''Mercury''’s holographic emitters to interact with the crew through an avatar called [[Efili]].

The device, which was strapped to the warp core, did substantial damage and inflicted heavy casualties. A second device was safely removed without causing further damage. The culprit is yet to be identified. Acting CO Cain sent acting XO {{n|Eyas|Wulfantine}} on the rescue mission using shuttlecraft while the remaining ''Mercury'' crew completed emergency repairs and anticipated a Klingon attack. | After the malfunctions ceased, the crew traced the abductors to [[Vador III]].
