Summary

Commander Travis Dillon and Commander Jaroch are surveying Phargus VIII, which Dillon is not thrilled about. He has an interview for a position on the Advancement Advisory Board, which sets the future direction of Starfleet, that he needs to prepare for. At Jaroch's suggestion, Dillon wanders off by himself to mentally ready himself for the interview, where he is attacked by a horde of crab-like creatures, one of which latches itself onto Dillon's head, piercing Dillon's skull with its flagella in the process and causing him to lose consciousness.


Dillon awakens in Sickbay on the USS Secondprize with the creature still attached to his head. According to Dr. Elizabeth Aldridge, it is feeding off of Dillon's brain activity. Dillon dubs the creature "Ted" (as in "Ted On My Head" or "Head Ted") and tries to resume his normal life, which isn't easy with...well...a thing on his head. He is even refused service in Seven Backward by Jemmy Fisk, the lounge manager, because Guinanco does not allow pets, but Patricia Hawkins is able to resolve the situation with her trusty phaser.
