			My favorite part of this story is the bit about the Cenkellan weapons having no effect on humans. Aliens always seem to be invulnerable to our weapons. It was time for a bit of payback. I liked the gag so much that I was going to use it in a spec script for Star Trek: Voyager that I never got around to writing.

	The Explorer is transporting an archaeological team that has been recovering artifacts from the ruins on Bournas Six. The archaeologists accidentally drop an amulet, cracking the glowing stone in its center. The stone housed an energy being, which escapes from the crack and ends up possessing Captain Baxter on the bridge. Dillon orders the crew to evacuate the saucer and has the Explorer perform a saucer separation, while he and other members of the Explorer crew remain in the saucer to try to help Baxter. They're first attempt fails, and, when the possessed Baxter begins accessing the saucer's systems, they are forced to detach the bridge module from the saucer. [[~~Aria~~ Tilleran]] fixes the gem in the amulet, and Dillon, J'hana, and Counselor [[Kelly Peterman]] are able to ram the gem down Baxter's throat, which causes the entity to be sucked back inside the gem and trapped. The gem...well, it will come out...eventually.		The Explorer is transporting an archaeological team that has been recovering artifacts from the ruins on Bournas Six.

	After getting a look at the quarters at the bottom of the ship [[Andrew Baxter]] lived in when he was the Secondprize's Inventory officer, Commander Conway settles in on the ship. At first he's taken aback by how things are run on board. The full buffet at staff meetings is a big surprise. He quickly forms a friendship with Lieutenant [[Andrea Carr]], who introduces Conway to new coffees. The Secondprize has been sent to Cenkella for a First Contact mission. Conway leads the mission, taking along Carr, Lieutenant Commander [[Patricia Hawkins]] and Dr. [[Elizabeth Aldridge]]. The Secondprize is called away to deal with a freighter in distress, but Conway is confident that the mission will be a cake-walk. He's wrong. As soon as the away team beams into the Cenkellan Capitol Building, they are faced with a group of armed officers. Things quickly go from bad to worse, leading to a firefight. Aldridge is hit...and completely uninjured. The away team quickly discovers that they are impervious to the Cenkellan's weapons. Add to that the fact that the Cenkellans are all about 3 feet tall and their planet's gravity is 80% that of Earth's, and basically the Starfleet Officers are super-powered giants. Over the objections of the rest of the away team, Conway lets this go to his head and starts rampaging through the capitol building and then through the city itself.

Over the objections of the rest of the away team, Conway lets this go to his head and starts rampaging through the capitol building and then through the city itself. Things are going great (at least in Conway's mind) until the Cenkellans figure out that Conway can be hurt by bullets. He quickly retreats back to the capitol building, where the away team is holed up. Hoping to salvage something from the situation, Conway surrenders and signs a treaty obligating the Federation to several terms including tribute of two billion of the Cenkellan monetary units a year, all the steak they can eat, and starship rides around the solar system. Conway is certain his career is over, but Rydell says he'll be sending an abridged report of events to Starfleet.
