Host SM_Greg says:
RECAP: The Ganymede is in hot pursuit of the Luttermoser ship. It has been five hours since the Captain was returned along with a deceased crew. Starfleet would like the Ganymede to find out why the Luttermosers are on their way to Earth. Are the Luttermosers trying to start war? Did they just misplace something and they want to see if they left it at Earth? Or have they finally realized that Earth needs a new haircut?
Stay tuned to find out.
