[edit] Summary

A USS Voyager away team is sent to a market place on the Mokra homeworld to purchase tellerium. After Captain Kathryn Janeway examines a sample, Neelix is told to purchase it and not to negotiate over the price. They need it badly. After Neelix has left, Tuvok notice some Mokra soldiers entering the market place, they seem to be looking for the away team. Although Tuvok is able to hit one off them with his phaser, he and B'Elanna Torres are captured. When Janeway has fought off a Mokra soldier and is about to contact Voyager, she is grazed by phaser fire in her neck and falls down. When the Mokra soldier removes her combadge, he is violently pushed against a wall by a man.

[edit] Act One

In engineering, Harry Kim and First Officer Chakotay are discussing the situation they are in. They are badly in need for the tellerium as the antimatter reaction rate in the warp core is approaching 9%. When this happens the plasma injectors will lockup, leaving them unable to reinitialize the nacelles and thus leave Voyager without warp propulsion. To safe power, and keep the reaction rate above the 9%, the only option left is to power down their shields. At this time they are contacted by Neelix who informed them the away team is captured by the Mokra but that he has the tellerium. Neelix is beamed directly to engineering where Kim uses the tellerium to stabilize the anti-matter reaction rate. Chakotay tries to contact the Captain but gets no answer. He is discussing the capture off the away team with Neelix, how the Mokra knew that Voyager personnel was on the planet. Neelix suspect a Mokra informer knew despite they only contacted the Alsaurian resistance movement. Their conversation is interrupted by Harry Kim after which he is able to bring the warp engine online, giving Voyager her warp capability back.

On the bridge helmsman Tom Paris is ordered to bring Voyager from behind the moon they were hiding and to set a course to the Mokra homeworld. Meanwhile Neelix informs Chakotay that the Mokra are paranoid and hostile, and have little use for diplomacy. While approaching the planet Voyager is detected by the Mokra orbital sensor net and they are hailed by Augris, third magistrate of the Mokra Order. When Augris hears that some members off Voyager are on his planet, he is not happy with it and sends a copy Mokra regulations to them, for future reference. When he learns that Chakotay believes they might be detained by the Mokra, Augris tells them that he will look in to it. Neelix does not believe that Augris will help them as he is nothing like the Mokra he has met before.

Although Commander Chakotay wants to try a diplomatic solution first he does order a continues surface scan of the planet, just in case.

Meanwhile in a Mokra jail, B'Elanna Torres notice a control circuit, which might be controlling the force field at the entrance of it. Tuvok warns her not to tamper with it and just wait but Torres gets a shock from the force field. As Tuvok has no idea if any member of the away team made it back to Voyager their is nothing left for them than to wait.
