Spoliers for "The Enemy you Know", published by LUG, follow.

In the Vulcan quarter of Po'rama, M'Kress interrupts an argument between two young vulcans in a soup restaurant, only to discover one of them is a disguised Reinhardt questioning a woman who said a phrase in Romulan. The woman takes advantage of M'Kress' interruption to run off. After they fail to draw further information out of the server staff, a vulcan introduces himself as Selak, a V'shiar (Vulcan security) agent investigating links between the Tal Shiar and the Vulcan Isolationist Movement.

Ashok wants to get up and back on his feet as soon as possible, and Lyranna, with the help of the medics, has trouble convincing him to stay in hospital until he has begun to recover. The Bolian medic treating him reveals that he has been injected with Genopsisitin - a powerful psi-suppresent. He does not know whether Ashok will recover the psi ability of his secret Betazed half.

Lyranna contacts Dr. Baruguile, a neuropathologist at the Betazed Institute of Science. She knows Dr. Baraguile through his work on the disease that cost Lyranna much of her own telepathic power.

Kath'lar is secretly sending a message to Kieran Mauro, asking for a rematch with her mate. The last ended with defeat for K'ral, and Kath'lar handing is Dagh'tagh over to save his life.

Lyranna has Loras accompany her to Petersen's office, where she angrily accuses him of setting up Ashok Quayn (who is not publicy known to be a telepathic half-Betazed) to be attacked. Petersen appears surprised, and volunteers to be questioned. Captain Horah-Morash considers whether to grant the civilian investigation access to Petersen's communication logs.

Ashok expresses impatience with the Starfleet investigation. Lyranna - who has some empathic ability - confronts him about his lie to the investigators that he has no enemies. He describes his mortal enemy half sister, his feebleminded father, and his vulnerable enslaved mother.

Selak joins several Starfleet personnel to monitor a meeting of the suspect VIM cell. Loras Veltr'a becomes suspicious when he sees from Selak's tricoder that the supposed VIM cell is actually favourably discussing Spock's reunification movement. He tries to tricorder scan Selak, who opens fire. M'Kress, Veltr'a, and Reinhardt subdue Selak, who turns out to be Romulan.

Some events may be in the wrong order, or even the wrong episode.
