On a mission to collect gormangander excrement, the U.S.S. Cerritos is attacked by a Ferengi warship! The Ferengi are hot on the tail of a debt dodger who owes them a fortune—D’Vana Tendi.
But as a member of Starfleet, Tendi has no way to earn the money to pay them back, and if she tells her family in the Orion Syndicate, they’ll simply murder her to clear the account.
One thing is for certain: If Tendi can’t devise a way to clear her ledger, the Lower Deckers are going to find themselves in deep sh*t, regardless of whether they find any gormaganders.
