While transporting a dangerous serial killer, The Tulip is diverted to search for survivors after an accident at a secret research station on Triton. When the ship is disabled by the station's graviton experiment, Dante stumbles on a time loop that gives him multiple chances to prevent Percy's death.

Dante agrees to transport Rudolpho's friend, Stephen Hamilton, and his two daughters, unaware that Hamilton is being blackmailed by The Orchard to spy on Dante.
