Hey, Boims, what
are you doing here?

What's up, Mariner? Yeah, I've
got a research mission to go on.

Really? So do I.

Awesome. I feel like,
since we got promoted,

we never get paired up anymore.

No way!

You guys are on
the away team, too?

Aah! It's a Beta shift reunion!

Yes. It's been too long.

This is gonna be
great. What's the mish?

Researching moss in a cave.

What? A cave? No.

Yes! It'll be fun.

I hate ca...

aves.

Stupid cave mission.

I feel like I've been in
this cave a hundred times.

Caves do all kind of
look the same, don't they?

Yeah, 'cause they're all made by

- soluble minerals!
- Soluble minerals!

This moss is even less osmotic
than I thought it would be.

So thrilling. Yeah,
okay, let's hurry it up.

Nothing good ever
comes from a cave mission.

I like a good cave... the
flat floors, the weird smell.

Cavey.

What? They're always
full of creepy creatures,

and sometimes, you
get stuck under rubble.

It feels like a third of all
our missions are in caves.

Come on. They're
so peaceful and quiet

and just the right
amount of moist.

Away team, get out of there.

We're detecting
tremors. Hold tight.

Try to get a signal.

Yes. So peaceful.

Stupid cave mission.

- Everyone okay?
- Yup.

- Yeah.
- Trapped in a cave

with no way to communicate.
Wow, what a surprise.

Can't wait to find out
what's lurking around.

Any, unspeakable
evils in here?

Can we just... can we
skip past the waiting

and just attack us now?

Will you stop it? I'll
just call for an evac.

Bunch of rocks always beats

centuries of
technological progress.

Whoa.

You see that? The moss
reacted to your little tantrum.

- Not a tantrum.
- Guess I don't need this.

Well, the entrance is blocked.

A phaser blast could
bring the entire place down.

No natural stairs or
hidden passageways

from secret societies.

Yeah, we're boxed in.

Guys, I think the
moss is following me?

Aw. It's probably just naturally
drawn to your body heat,

like it's looking
for a warm hug.

- Aah!
- Aah! Not a hug.

It's
eating my boot!

It's carnivorous moss?
Are you kidding me?

So, okay, you want
your "I told you so's"

one at a time or all at once?

At the rate it's growing, we
only have a couple of hours.

We've all been
stuck in caves before.

One of us has to
know a way out of this.

Yeah. Like the time
we all got stuck together

right after that rage
virus outbreak on the ship.

The power was
fluctuating, and...

Tendi, I love you,
but that wasn't a cave.

It was a turbolift.

Totally different type
of thing to get trapped in.

- Right. Sorry.
- Wait.

I just got stuck in a
cave with Lieutenant Levy

and we used gammanite to
boost our comm badge distress call.

Levy. One of the worst
guys to get stuck in a cave with.

- Did he go on and on about his conspiracies?
- Yeah.

It started as a regular
dilithium survey,

but then an ion storm
blew in out of nowhere.

Nowhere. Nowhere.

Man. That was close.

- Ooh.
- Damn it.

The storm must be
interfering with comms.

Really? You know
why they don't make comms

that can't be interfered with?

The technology isn't
advanced enough to...

Because of what
they don't want us to hear.

Sure, Levy. Whatever.

We need to find
a way out of here.

Can't we just wait
for the storm to pass?

Yeah, right. They
can last years.

Did you read the briefing?

I'd rather take in the
mission with my own two eyes.

Once I beam down,
make my own conclusions.

- Something's in here with us.
- Yeah.

Pretty convenient storm.

This has Vendorian
written all over it.

What? Vendor Prime's
in the Beta Quadrant.

There's no reason for
Vendorians to be here.

That's what they
want you to think.

They're shapeshifters. Trust me.

Vendorians are setting us up.

I'm picking up a
faint energy signal.

It could be a way out.

What are you doing?

Checking the energy source?

That's exactly what the
Vendorians want us to do.

There are no Vendorians, man.

And just because they
sound scary doesn't mean

you should believe
that stereotype.

Being controversial

is what makes them so
good at tricking their prey.

Fine. Wait here then.

Yeah, right. That would
play right into their tentacles.

Whoa. Someone must
have abandoned this

on a previous away mission.

All-terrain treads, partial
charge and ionic shielding?

Yes! We can use this
to get to the shuttle.

It's our ticket out of here.

Only one seat, though.

One of us will
have to stay behind.

Out of the way, Boimler.

What are you doing? Aah!

What the , Levy?
Now we're trapped.

There's a dream
vehicle just sitting

in the middle of a
cavern with only one seat?

Yeah, that's a classic
Vendorian morality test.

Vendorians don't
care about human morality.

Look, I know you're some
outside-the-box math genius,

but do you ever wonder
why you've been stuck

at the same rank
for, like, a decade?

No wild, unfounded
theories on that?

Well, it's because
you're insufferable.

Wolf 359 was a tragedy,

Q exists, Picard
isn't some hologram,

and Voyager'sEMH is!

Do you know
who benefits from us

being stuck in this
cave? Everyone!

Because they don't
have to deal with you.

I... I just want help.

Your cruelty displeases us.

You have failed
our morality test.

- Aah! Vendorians.
- Whoa! No way!

I-I... I knew it.

Please let us go.

I thought you were
just a paranoid anxiety

made up by people who
needed an imagined enemy

to simulate order on
unrelated disasters

so life doesn't feel so
random and chaotic!

Ha! That is what we
wanted you to think.

Rather than work
together to escape,

you have chosen to
denigrate and bicker.

You shall be punished.

I-I'm already feeling
pretty punished.

They're gonna tie us
together face-to-face

and lay brood pods in our necks

so we have to look at
each other in the eye

while their young
burst out of our chests.

You know of our customs?

Yeah. Levy's
a huge Vendorian fan.

Well, I-I wouldn't
call myself a fan.

I mean,

I do love all the lurking,

the brood podding,
the flappy arms.

Wow. Most people find
us preachy and unsettling.

How do you have such knowledge?

I'm on a couple
of subspace forums

where like-minded
people make up...

I mean, I mean
that we share information.

Subor, go find Tarmax.

He would get a kick out of this.

What else have
you heard about us?

Tons. I mean,
where to start?

Obelisks, right?

So, whenever we
find a mysterious...

off about how you
guys falsified data

that going warp speed
damages subspace.

Your knowledge is artfully
mixed with hyperbole and fiction.

We did not, as you put it,

"do the Klingon
civil war."

Agree to disagree.

But I got to say, after sharing
these delicious crickets,

you don't seem as
dangerous as everyone says.

We do lay brood pods in throats.

Right. I mean, besides that.

Well, Levy, you're still a
crackpot with dangerous beliefs,

but I guess I've
learned not to...

I don't know... yell
at you? I don't know.

I'm glad we're
pals, too, Boimler.

- I wouldn't say we're...
- Huzzah!

Enemies have become friends.

What? No, not what I said.

Our morality gambit worked.

Vendorians.

Yeah.

So, the Vendorians ended
up setting us free. They even

taught me how to use gammanite
to boost my comm signal

so the Cerritos could
beam us out of there.

This isn't working.

Also, I can't believe
you bonded with Levy.

Power of caves. They can
make you friends with jerks.

Aw, Steve's not so bad.

He just wants
everything to be special.

We've actually hung out
in the holodeck a few times.

What? Like, without us?

- It's not a big deal.
- Sure.

Yeah, hang out
with a guy who thinks

we'rein the evil
mirror universe.

Sometimes being
stuck together can result

in surprising conversations.

You know, like that time
when we all got trapped

- in that turbolift.
- Tends, that wasn't a cave.

We need ideas on how
to get out of this sitch.

Guys, I think
we need to hurry.

Way to waste bones.

Dumb moss.

- Did you find gammanite?
- No.

But there's traces
of trigammanite.

Which would have
a similar effect.

We'd have to find
a way to separate it

from the rock, though.

- Quick, Boimler, take off your pants.
- On it.

Wow. You just straight-up did
that, no questions asked?

We're roommates.

The fiber should weaken
the phaser beam just enough.

Mariner, fire at the wall so
it reflects through the pants.

Probably could've
used my jacket, but...

Voilà! Now we just have
to do the delicate work

of separating the trigammanite.

How'd you know how to do that?

I guess I learned how to
solve problems like that

when Dr. T'Ana
and I were trapped

in that cave with our kid.

- I'm sorry. Your what?!
- Yeah.

I had a cave baby with Dr. T.

Did I not tell you
guys about that?

Yeah, yeah, you sure did.

No, you didn't tell us!

It was a few weeks back
when Billups came down

with Porgian swamp rash.

I got assigned to go with Doc

to gather some medicinal
ferns on Balkus 9.

Nine. Nine. Nine.

The ferns are in this
alcove over here, Doctor.

Good. Can't replicate
molecular fungo-sites

and they're the only thing
that cures swamp rash.

It has been an
honor guiding you.

I take great pleasure in
gaining your knowledge

- and sharing mine.
- Whatever.

The ferns are just under
the surface of the water.

Doc,

I'm picking up some
strange vibrations.

Maybe we should
get out of this cave?

No. No need to worry.

This grotto hasn't been home
to the Grafflax for generations.

The what-what now?

It's a large creature
that eats brains

and many think it was a myth...

Aah!

That
thing was nasty.

Whoa.

I am dying.

Don't move. We'll stabilize you.

This body is gone. I
must transfer to a new one.

Dr. T will help you.
Just stay awake.

Her effort is not needed.

I we simply procreate my
base mind via dermal contact.

- What did you do?
- Nothing.

Well, she's gone.

I-I'm sorry. I didn't...

I don't feel so good, Doc.

Yeah, that makes
sense. You're pregnant.

Aah!

But we just touched skin.

Well, yeah. These gals
procreate by dermal contact.

They transfer
their consciousness

into a protein mass that
grows into a baby version

of themselves in seconds.

There's a lot going on here
I'm not comfortable with.

You'll be saying
that a lot more soon enough.

Lie down, bite on this.

What? I'm not gonna
bite a shoe. Aah!

Okay. There we go.

Hold this thing
while I close you up.

Come on. Would you just open up?

What happened?

You gave birth to a clone baby

and we're lost in a cave
system without a guide.

So that wasn't a
traumatic hallucination.

Afraid not.

Catch.

See if you can get it to eat.
Damn thing doesn't know

- what's good for...
- Someone was hungry.

- Slow down. It's okay.
- Okay.

Anyway, priority one
is protecting little Thusa

from being killed by
the Grafflax again.

We wouldn't want
that, now, would we?

No, we wouldn't, baby, baby.

Then we got to figure
a way out of this cave

before we run out of rations.

Let's take turns
marking our path

- and watching the kid.
- Ooh!

I call dibs on first
babysitting shift.

Good, because the only thing
I hate more than engineers

are babies.

Ooh,
who's a little clone baby?

You are. You
are. -

Baby.

- - Wow.
- You're a tough kid.

Born in a cave,
fighting a monster.

I think you're the coolest
baby I've ever met.

Looks like you two
are finally getting along.

Yeah, yeah, I don't
usually like babies,

but this is more
of a co-adventurer.

Yeah, she's on
Team Cave Survival.

I still don't like
engineers, though.

Run!

Aw, ! Dead end!

Would you stop messing
with the tricorder?

We're about to be eaten alive.

No can do, Dr. T. I've got this.

We mean you no harm.

We just want to
get out of this cave.

Did you just talk to me?

I adapted this translator
based on your growls.

Please don't eat us.

I don't want to eat you.

I'm protecting my baby.

Hey, this is our
baby. I gave birth to it.

Not that. In there.

We didn't
know that was your baby.

If you let us leave, we'll make
sure nobody ever comes back.

I've been observing you.

You are good parents.

Follow me.

All right, Baby Thusa.
Let's get you out of this cave.

You'd make a not
completely terrible father.

Wait. Are you saying I'm
the first engineer you like?

Shut the up.

Dude, you fully had a
kid and never told us?

She was a consciousness clone.

It's not like she was my baby.

I only gave birth to her.

That a huge deal.
We're roommates.

How come you
didn't tell me this?

You didn't tell me
about the Vendorians.

And I haven't been
able to talk about the time

we got stuck in the turbolift.

That is not a cave story!

I don't like
the sound of that.

What?

You're using the comm badge
as a filter for the trigammanite?

Since when do you know
how to realign microcircuitry?

Probably from you. I don't know.

The way these stories have
been going, I wouldn't be surprised

if you got it from one of
those creeps in Delta shift.

- Well, I mean...
- You did?

Since when can you stand
being around Delta shift?

Since I got assigned
to lead them

on an away mission
on Glish. But our shuttle

was hit with a magnetic
anomaly on the way.

Way. Way.

- Nice landing.
- You have notes

- on me saving our lives?
- I wouldn't have crashed

- into a cave.
- We lost power.

Shuttles are shaped like bricks.
What was I supposed to do?

Of Course.

Wait. Holy.
Comms are working?

you, cave.

All right, Mariner to Cerritos.

What? Repeat that. Breaking up.

- Aw, damn it.
- We're out of range.

Looks like we'll
be here for a while.

Mariner!

Look what your crappy
piloting did to my leg.

My God! - Asif!

Karavitus, grab a med kit.

Amadou, get me a status
report on those engines.

- On it.
- Yes, ma'am.

Shuttle's salvageable, but
power's dunsel unless we can

- scrounge up some pergium.
- Well,

it's our lucky day,
because, according to this,

there's a pile of
pergium right over there.

I feel terrible.

Are you guys seeing this?

What the hell?
Did you get older?

Whoa. You did, too.

Ew! This is so messed up!

We're near a mineral vein
which emits chronitons.

Anything organic will
experience a bio-temporal flux

depending on how
close you get to it.

Well, that sucks
because we have to get

to that wall over
there, or no pergium.

I'm gonna be a spry old lady.

I'll just muscle through it.

Well, what are you
doing? Cut it out.

You're gonna get too old.

I bet I age more
gracefully than you,

because I'm a better person.

I'm the ranking officer here.

Go back to the young
side. That's an order.

No! You always hated me

just because I'm Delta shift.

I've always hated you
because you're an asshole.

We can't help Asif if we both

die of old age
halfway to the wall.

- Aah!
- Aah!

I'm only an asshole

because I work
just as hard as you

at all the same jobs
but nobody cares.

Our shift sucks.
Everyone is asleep.

That sounds great to me.

It isn't. I've met
the captain...

I don't know... five times.

I've seen Ransom three or four.

None of us in Delta
shift will ever rank up

like you all did because
nobody knows we exist.

Damn. It's like we work
on two different shifts.

Yeah. That's why we've always
resented you Beta shifters.

We thought you hated
us because we broke stuff

during the day and
you had to fix it at night.

Yeah, that's sucks, too.

I'm sorry for
being a dick to you.

Maybe we try to find
a shift between ours

- where we can try to be civil.
- Maybe.

If we survive this
stupid old-age cave.

Aah! My hip!

We need someone younger
than us to take a crack at this.

Wait. That's it! Asif's
like a child prodigy.

- He's young as hell.
- Really?

Asif, get your ass over here!

Hello. My leg is broken.

It'll heal with
the time dilation.

Right? - Yeah, I don't know.

My God, my leg!

It's healing wrong.

It looks fine.

- Yeah, just keep going.
- I don't know.

- Are you sure?
- Just walk through it.

I can't go anymore.

My leg feels like a knot.

Just suck it up.
You're still young.

Yeah, come on, kid.
I wish I was your age.

God, my leg fell off!

- Ooh. That is not good.
- Aah! That-that's... Ooh.

Hey, guys, check it out.

There's a bunch of
pergium over here

and it makes you
age down a little.

I feel great.

Good job, Amadou.

What?! Then why did I
have to walk over here?

Hey, you're a hero, Asif.

Yeah, you did great, man.

Couldn't have gotten
out of this without you.

Wait, wait, wait, hold
on. Don't leave my leg.

I'm done being old, so
we're just gonna have the doc

- grow you a new one.
- Come on.

Shuttlecraft, do you read?

We're receiving your distress
call. Just stay where you are.

- Nice job, Lieutenant.
- You, too, Ensign.

Couldn't have done
it without Delta shift.

- You know it.
- Yeah!

- Delta shift! Delta shift!
- Delta shift! Delta shift!

Delta
shift! Delta shift!

Hey, yeah, can-can we
please -

just try to get my leg, maybe?

You-you know, just in case?

- You chanted with them?
- Chanting's our thing.

I can-I can chant
with other people.

Guys, don't fight.

I don't know who
you are anymore!

Why don't you ask
your pal Steve Levy?

Delta shift is way worse.

You didn't even tell
us you were a father.

I did too tell you.
Just not right away.

Whatever. Just,
here's the trigammanite.

Call the Cerritos
and get us out of here.

Great. I'll call for an evac.

Fine. I can get
back to real work.

Yup. See you guys in
the next cave or whatever.

Away team to Cerrit... Aah!

- Moss!
- This moss is doing something

- that moss shouldn't do!
- Holy...

You cannot leave.

- Did the moss talk?
- What is happening?

You cannot leave until I hear

the green one's story.

But it's just about a turbolift.

It doesn't apply
to the situation.

- Story!
- Tendi, tell the story.

Okay, well, it was

my first day on the Cerritos.

Cerritos.
Cerritos. Cerritos.

- No. No, no, no. No, go away.
- Spirit, community.

- Leave me alone.
- Lower Decks! Lower Decks!

- No. Don't... Stop hugging me.
- Lower Decks!

You're gonna be my
cha'Dich from now on, baby!

Man.

I need to sleep
for a year, minimum.

I thought synthehol let you

shrug off the
effects of alcohol.

Yeah, but I swapped
bottles way early.

We've been drinking
the real thing.

I'm genuinely
impaired, but, well,

what if Dr. T'Ana
needs me to assist

in, like, a surgical thing?

We just survived a rage virus.
The whole ship's on down time.

- Don't sweat it.
- Yeah, there shouldn't be

another disaster until
15:30 at the earliest.

Rutherford to
Commander Billups.

Are there any issues
with the turbolifts?

Well, a bunch of
the power relays were damaged,

so, just hang tight,
we'll add you to the list.

Can you just beam
us out of here, sir?

I'm sure they'll
have it fixed in a jiffy.

Shoot. That
spells targ. I'm out.

My turn. All right, you got
to bounce it off Boims' face.

- Okay. Is it a living thing?
- No.

Is it an isolinear
optical chip?

Yes! Holy crap!
You got it in two!

I think
this was actually

one of the best days of my life.

You mean, with
the zombie outbreak,

then getting stuck in here
and peeing in a corner?

Well, I didn't love
peeing in the corner.

I guess I was worried about
being the only Orion on board.

We kind of have a reputation.

All we see is a smart,
capable, awesome ensign.

Yeah, you're a lower
decker, just like us.

Cerritosstrong.

I'm glad
you guys are my friends.

I'm here to save you.

Man, I almost peed again
when Shaxs jumped in like that.

Almost? I fully did.

I think that was the best time

I've ever had being
stuck in something.

That was really sweet.

I'm sorry I kept cutting
that story off early, Tends.

No, it's okay. I just wanted
to say, it doesn't matter

if we start hanging
out with Steve Levy

or Delta shift or having a baby.

We'll always be friends.

I love you guys.

I have eaten many
outsiders in this cave,

but I have never made a friend.

Can we be friends?

Of course. We came
in here to study you.

You did? Take your scans,

as long as you
continue to tell stories.

It'll take a while for our
commanders to rescue us,

and I have plenty
more cave stories to tell.

That pleases me.

- You ever heard of a sentient cave?
- Ooh, I have a real cave story.

Remember the time we got
stuck in a cave and met ourselves?

- What? No way.
- Yeah, that one was wild.

We thought it was
us from the future

'cause they knew
everything about us.

But then it turned out it was
actually a bunch of aliens

- pretending to be us.
- Then it turned out

they actually were
from the future.

It appears that
the junior officers

have rekindled their friendship.

By not allowing their
new responsibilities

to destroy what's
truly important.

- They have passed our test.
- Should we unblock

their communications?

Nay. Let them enjoy this
moment for a little longer.

Chirp.
