This week’s episode focuses on the Cerritos Chief Engineer, Commander Andarithio “Andy” Billups, who we learn is heir to the kingdom of Hysperia – an earth-like planet with a Renaissance Faire-themed culture. The principality is currently ruled by his mother, Queen Paolana. The Queen is anxious for Billups to assume the role of the planet, which he will be obligated to do once he loses his virginity.
In the B-Plot, Mariner and Boimler are tasked with transporting an evil sentient computer called AGIMUS to the Daystrom Institute for safe-keeping so it would not wreak havoc throughout the galaxy. On the way to the Institute, their shuttle is affected by an anomaly that forces a crash landing on a remote, uninhabited planet.
Needless to say, hilarity ensues.
