Dal and his friends decide to steal the Infinity before it can be destroyed, and to create holographic doubles of them to hide their absence.
Tropes:
- Either "World Domination", or Something About Bananas: Gwyn begins to understand some of what Murph says, and manages to identify a sound that either means "yes" or that he wants to eat a Talaxian Burrito. The first time she hears it she assumes it was yes, but at the end of the episode, she thinks he is actually wanting to eat a Burrito.
- Gone Horribly Right: The Prodigy crew successfully manage to create holographic doubles of themselves that act exactly like them... so much so, in fact, that the holograms are convinced that they are the originals, and want to make sure that their "doubles" must stay on the ship while they steal the Infinity.
- Heel–Face Turn: Non-villainous version. Maj'El, who had until now been antagonistic or at least scornful of the Prodigy crew, spontaneously decides to help them evading the Doctor's attention. It is implied this is at least partly due to her interest in Zero.
- How We Got Here: The episode begins with Dal being chased by Jankom, Gwyn, Zero and Murph, who seem intent on harming him. We then jump back 24 hours before to explain how we came there.
- Let's Split Up, Gang!: A non-lethal version, but just as counterproductive. Both the originals and their holographic doubles decide to split up to catch the others... meaning that soon neither of them know which is which.
- Nice Girl: While everybody else ends up fighting their counterparts, both Rok-Tahks immediately decide to pool their efforts to resolve the situation.
- Percussive Maintenance: Following on his experience from two episodes ago, Jankom wastes no time to hit the console with a hammer to engage the Infinity's cloaking. It works.
- Ship Tease: Maj'El telepathically tells Zero that she finds them fascinating. It is also implied she helped the group before mainly because of Zero.
- Spot the Imposter: A particularly convoluted case, since the duplicates are themselves convinced they are the originals, and are also trying to identify which of their friends is an imposter. No conclusive identification occurs until both Rok-Tahk manage to find a way to deactivate the holograms (it is then shown that Gwyn was holding the hand of Holo-Dal).
- Tempting Fate: Rok-Tahk notices "a small anomaly" when she restarts the holographic doubles, but says it must not be serious. Turns out the holo-doubles have swapped personalities.
