Servalan has heard about a remarkable substance called feldon which occurs on a remote planet. She sees that feldon could give her a military advantage, and she has sent a team to report.
The crew of Scorpio discover Servalan's expedition, and they also learn that those she sent out are all dead. They decide to investigate the planet for themselves - but so does Servalan.

- Avon: (to Tarrant) Servalan may not get off there alive. Which would make you the last man in her life. Ironic, isn't it? edit »
- Avon: You do know that this is a hell of a risk?
Tarrant: It usually is anyway, isn't it?
Avon: Dayna?
Dayna: Oh, I trust you, Avon.
Avon: I must be slipping. edit » - Tarrant: What happened to the presidency?
Servalan: It was stolen, in my absence. I shall take it back, eventually.
Tarrant: If the new boys don't spot you first.
Servalan: I'm dead. And anyone who was ever directly involved with me has been purged.
Tarrant: Yeah well, it's somewhat academic, at the moment, anyway, while we're prisoners here.
Servalan: Prisoners?
Tarrant: What else?
Servalan: If anyone can find a way out of here, you will.
Tarrant: Will I?
Servalan: Naturally. You are both resourceful and decorative.
Tarrant: Thank you. I might say the same about you. But then I'd also say you're possibly the most unscrupulously venomous woman in the galaxy. Being shut in here with you is rather like being locked in a cage with a panther: a black cat with large golden eyes and long silver talons.
Servalan: Oh, Tarrant. I'm just the girl next door.
Tarrant: If you were the girl next door, I'd move.
Servalan: Where would you move to, Tarrant?
Tarrant: Next door? edit » - Tarrant: Once the girl died, Keller immediately got sick; her death made him expendable...
Servalan: Don Keller, he was my lover. I was eighteen.
Tarrant: He's the reason you're here.
Servalan: He left me. I grew up. Power became my lover. Power is like a drug. It is beautiful, shining. I could destroy a planet by pressing a button... I loved him.
Tarrant: This isn't going to help either of us.
Servalan: I don't care about either of us. (She is about to cry.)
Tarrant: Hey, it doesn't rain here - remember? edit »
