A figure from Leximas' past comes for revenge, and this time she's brought along the power of the Q. In short order, the crew of Waystation are fighting for their lives, their station, and, in the case of Commander Lisa Beck, her very soul. Can the crew figure out some way to stop a demi-god? Will Bradley Dillon's holodeck fantasies get him killed? Is Beck willing to leave Starfleet for a higher level of existence? Will Colonel Martin Lazlo ever stop being a weaselly slimeball? Is Lieutenant Sean Russell the only one who can sort this mess out?
Summary
Out in the Beta Quadrant, a former pupil of Leximas', Karyna is travelling looking for new pleasures to experience when she encounters a Q who has grown tired with the universe. Karyna decides to show him that there are new sensations for him to discover and joins with the Q.
On Waystation, Lieutenant Sean Russell's security forces have their hands full with a Klingon dress thief who has robbed Krilik's Klingon Formal Wear Shop. They are able to stop the thief, Qolesh, with Bradley Dillon's help. Bradley's main reason for being in the area was to invite Leximas to join him for an ocean cruise in the holodeck on a little ship called the Titanic. Qolesh manages to escape from Russell and attempts to take Commander Lisa Beck hostage. Beck escapes, clobbering Qolesh in the process, but she is none too pleased with her Chief of Security. She orders Russell to go with Lieutenant Commander Walter Morales to attend to a diplomatic chore on the colony Geranis Two. Russell has no interest in going (and he has a date he doesn't want to miss) and gives the assignment to Yeoman Tina Jones, who is thrilled at the chance to get off the station. In the holodeck, Leximas experiences a flash of dread.
Beck discovers that Russell disobeyed her orders and gives him twelve hours to get off the station. In her anger, she makes Colonel Martin Lazlo of the Federation Marines the new Chief of Security. Karyna finishes her joining with Q and now has Q powers. The result of the joining is an energy surge that disables Morales' and Jones' runabout. Karyna turns her newfound abilities to the task of finding Leximas, who she blames for her exile from their homeworld, and leaves a despondent Q.
