- The Queen offers Crichton a choice; marry her daughter the crown princess, or she'll turn him over to Scorpius.
- Princess Katralla's mother brings in Scorpius promising Crichton that if he doesn't marry her daughter, she will hand him over. Meanwhile, Prince Clavor starts a plot to assassinate Crichton so that he may ascend to the throne instead of his sister.
- Rescued from an assassination attempt by Prince Clavor's fiance Jena. Crichton learns that she is a Peacekeeper agent, who mistakenly assumes he is one too. He gets away to confront Clavor about the attack. It's a bad move. Tyno believes Clavor ordered the attack but without evidence Crichton's standing is falling rapidly. Previously he'd have loved that, it would mean he could escape without marrying the princess but now Moya's vanished and the only person waiting for him offworld is Scorpius. While Rygel negotiates for greater security on Crichton and Scorpius plots against him, Moya's found herself being probed by the Builders - the aliens who created her. They're not best pleased, either, at her having developed into something that can give birth to armed battlecruisers. The Builders are peaceful, you can see their point. But their point now is to decommission Moya - and that means death for her, for Pilot and for Zhaan. There's little hope for any of them and Crichton faces the knowledge that even if he can survive the next few hours, his best possible result is being married - and turned into a statue for eighty years.
- The Queen offers Crichton a choice; marry her daughter the crown princess, or she'll turn him over to Scorpius. Meanwhile, Moya has found her builders, the ones who created Leviathans. They know Moya gave birth to a warship, and do not want another one born. They want Moya to shut down, permanently—Jesse Sanchez
