Janel tries to convince O'Brien to leave, but he's at the whim of Ezri, his superior officer. O'Brien tells Ezri that her family is probably under pressure from the syndicate. He checks the family's records and discovers that Morica was an employee of the business. Together they track how her pay was steadily increased until just before her death. They confront the family with the evidence. Janel admits that he turned to the syndicate to save the company, and in return, they demanded the family give Morica a sinecure. Janel tapped Norco to falsify the payment records, though he never did. In spite of steadily increasing her payments, Morica was never happy with the amount she received.

Ezri reunites with her
At dinner, Ezri talks about her growing comfort with her symbiosis, but Yanas continues to pressure her to return home for good so that her family can help her. For their part, the brothers aren't doing great. In private, Norvo laments that he was rejected by the Andorian Academy and has decided that he's a hack. The next morning, Ezri discovers that he's vandalized his own art during an all-night bender. But family drama takes a backseat when the local police arrive with O'Brien, bruised after a beating from Nausicans. He has, however, discovered that Bilby's wife, Morica, has been murdered.
Yanas sets O'Brien up in her home but asks him to look at some faulty mining equipment in return. Ezri talks with Norvo, who is still in a funk, about joining her on Deep Space Nine at least for a little while to take a vacation, but Norvo feels too much pressure to help the family to just abandon them.

Janel tapped Norco to falsify the payment records, though he never did. In spite of steadily increasing her payments, Morica was never happy with the amount she received.
Yanas is outraged at all of this, but Janel insists that she always taught them to value the business over everything. Ezri realizes that Norvo knows something more. He confesses that he went to Morica to reason with her, but she refused. He decided to prove everyone wrong who thought he was too weak to be useful to the family, so he killed her. After this shocking confession, Norvo gets arrested. Ezri advises Janel to leave the company after Norvo's trial, and he promises to have a happier life. Yanas begs Ezri to tell her that all of this is not her fault, but Ezri walks away without a word.
