While Anton practices a bit of full contact diplomacy, Hilde presents Mackie with an intimidating possibility: his old home the Empress Helene is nearby and looks to be the most promising option for the majority of the Apogee Station refugees. Unfortunately this means an extremely uncomfortable conversation with his least intimidating progeny. With this new plan more or less set, Anton tries to figure out why the Admiral Grace is diverting course without him. He's not that worried though as the crew assures him that in his absence the galley would become one never ending series of explosions. Before long the Admiral Grace docks at the Empress Helene and Mackie prepares to look as successful as only an old man full of re-purposed organs can.
