The struggle for control of the Destiny comes to a head as Dr. Rush and the new commander Dannic both refuse to back down, even in the face of a pulsar's deadly radiation. Meanwhile, most of the crew is marooned on an inhospitable world.
Tropes
- Ax-Crazy — Dannic is a viewed as a threat even by his own people.
- Determinator — Rush won't surrender to the Lucian Alliance no matter what.
- Jerkass Has a Point — Rush is in no way a nice guy, but he managed to force the Lucian Alliance to surrender.
