Frustrated beyond endurance by being 'nice' to the crew of the Arcadia and the diplomacy of the Ubatti, Ro' retires to his cabin to get drunk. Then he turns to wandering the halls finding crewmen to take his anger out on. How will the crew respond whne it is their turn? Hide, Stand tall and take a beating without complaint? Fight for all they are worth/ Or will Ro' pass some of them oer as unworthy opponents? And what will happen when his first officer finds him in this state?
