A Marine SAR team is sent from the ''Arrow'' to assist in the search for survivors on the hulk. Exploring the derelict, Rodan and the Away Team encounter a crazed Gorn, but no Gorn like anyone has ever seen. It attacks the Ferengi away team, whose survivors regroup with Starfleet just as Caden inadvertently trips an ancient security protocol which shifts the corridors and bulkheads into a labyrinthine maze. The away team is separated with Rodan, Caden, Jones and Grixon on one side of the maze, and Serinus, Waters, R'Ariel and the SAR Marines on the other. The Gorn is somewhere in the maze. | A Marine SAR team is sent from the ''Arrow'' to assist in the search for survivors on the hulk.

Enraged by their intrusion, the mother Gorn kills two of the SAR team before her mate arrives. | ||
Meanwhile on the ''Arrow'', a deal is struck with DaiMon Slek to allow Collins and MacKenna aboard to deliver information about the Alpha Isles so Slek can conduct business there. Slek, on the other hand, relishes the idea of having an Intel officer on his ship, and begins underhanded plans to gain more information. | Meanwhile on the ''Arrow'', a deal is struck with DaiMon Slek to allow Collins and MacKenna aboard to deliver information about the Alpha Isles so Slek can conduct business there.

With MacKenna and Collins dealing with Slek aboard the ''Fortuna'', Shayne enlists Lieutenant DeBarres to come up with a strategy of getting near the Hulk in order to dock with it and rescue the away team. She suggests echolocation, and soon the Saber class ship is sneaking past the ''Fortuna'' to get closer to Slek's prize. | |||
On the Ferengi Marauder, MacKenna and Collins see the true intentions of DaiMon Slek, who planned to kidnap the Intelligence agent and steal secrets from her brain. As Shayne's patience runs out with the Ferengi, he demands they steer clear of the ''Arrow'' while they approach the Hulk. When he spots that MacKenna - Shayne's own fiance - had been manhandled by Slek, the Captain orders a full phaser assault on the ''Fortuna'', with warp power channeled to the phaser banks. The ''Fortuna'' survives the blast, but the sneaky Slek orders his ship to self-destruct before fleeing - unbeknownst to Shayne and the others - to the Hulk with MacKenna and Collins. | |||
After Maz Rodan is attacked by the Gorn, Jones and Grixon lead a valiant counter-attack against the beast, giving the away team enough time to fall back into the labyrinthine maze of the Hulk and make it back to the docking area. The bug - which for some reason feels attracted to Rodan - sprays an icy cold liquid on his wound, thus saving his life. As the away team approach their shuttle, they are unaware of the destruction of the ''Fortuna''. | |||
Escaping the Hulk with the assets he'd been commissioned to retrieve, Slek boards Bregg's shuttle in the cargo area and escapes the scene to rendezvous with his Gorn business partner. The prize he tasked his men with retrieving was a cache of Gorn eggs suspended in stasis. He beams aboard the egg from the Throne Room and while he waits his payment, the egg hatches and Slek finds himself face to face with a newborn - and very hungry - Gorn. | |||
