Reaching Theta 122, he along with the rest of the crew began a much needed shore leave and a an uphill battle with the never ending list of repairs. | Reaching Theta 122, he along with the rest of the crew began a much needed shore leave and a an uphill battle with the never ending list of repairs. | ||

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. He ended up talking to his sister Riley for the first time in a while. While she does pacify him, he realizes that it would be a long time before he fully recovers, quoting 'God may forgive a man, but his nervous system won't.' to sum up his feelings. He also finds that he has forgotten his late brother's birthday for the first time in years. Riley warns him not to lose sight of what's important before hanging up and leaving him to his thoughts. | Shore leave started out unexpectedly, with Keneth being dragged into teaching a cooking class, despite knowing nothing about the art.
