The crew rendezvous in their cheap hotel room and plans the heist. Lutrin cautions Tony to check with the whole group before taking dangerous jobs like this.

Tony takes the lead. He crosses the docking area boldly and enters a small workroom right under the windows of the security office. He jacks in and hacks the dock control system which has surprisingly light security. The doors leading to their target pop open and he signals the team to get moving.

Gem distracts the dock boss with questions while Lu and Quinn slip down the corridor leading to the storage area. They scan the crates and locate the five they need. Lu heads back to the docking area to grab a forklift, asking Gem for cover. She fast-talks the dock boss all the way out of the bay.

While Lu and Quinn relabel the crates and move them to the loading zone, Tony hacks the much tighter nodes in the security office and wipes the last few minutes of camera footage, then sets the whole camera system to reboot. While the cameras are down he makes his escape.

Back in their hotel room, they contact Rossi and wait to be paid. He sends them 10,000 credits each and the rendezvous details for the Black Orpheus. Just on a whim, Tony hacks the hotel system and changes the names on the room reservation. When they reach the lobby, he's very glad he did.

Three Martian Legionnaires are standing at the front desk arguing with a clerk. The clerk can't seem to find the guests the Martians want. Gem and Lu stay in the elevator and go back up while Tony and Quinn stay in the lobby and keep an eye on the soldiers.

Eventually the Martians leave and Gem and Lu come down to the lobby. Quinn leads them on a round-about route to the docks while Tony follows the Martians from a distance. Two of them go straight to the docks while their commander heads elsewhere.

At the docks the Legionnaires give local Luna security a hard time. Tony listens in. It's clear the locals have been told to give the Martians whatever they want. They tell security to ground the Wilma Deering and let no one near the ship. One of the Martians leaves, the other stands guard near the door leading to the hanger where Wilma is parked.

The security guard notices the skulking Tony and asks if he needs directions. Tony commiserates with the officer, saying he can't believe Martians can act like that here on Luna. Who do they think they are? The officer agrees but warns Tony to stay the hell away from the Martians. They have a frigate docked at Gateway Station and the higher-ups ordered full cooperation. Best to keep one's head down and follow orders.

Meanwhile, Quinn, Gem and Lutrin got a heads up from Tony and are hiding out in a teamsters' break room close-by. They try to come up with a plan. If they hide long enough, Luna might get frustrated and force the frigate to leave. But then the Orpheus will be long gone. They decide to take out the guard and try to escape in the Wilma Deering while they still have a chance.
