  10. Crichton asks Pilot to gather the crew in the hangar because he has returned with a large haul of supplies. Pilot reports that the others are busy: D'Argo is helping Rygel XVI with laundry, Aeryn is writing poetry, and Chiana and Sikozu are preparing food together. Noranti detects that Scorpius has come loose on the ship, and shortly afterward Coreeshi bounty hunters board Moya. A bounty transmission declares Crichton worth 15 million currency pledges if taken alive.
  11. Crichton escapes in a small craft, but on re-entering Moya he destroys the bounty hunters' boarding craft in an explosion. The hunters search the tiers and capture the rest of Moya's crew, including Rygel, D'Argo, Aeryn, Chiana, Sikozu and Pilot. Under interrogation, Rygel gives up Crichton's likely routes, naming his quarters and Pilot's Den as targets.
  12. Crichton discovers that Scorpius has freed himself from his cell and is now loose aboard Moya. The two form a reluctant alliance and begin hunting the bounty hunters one by one, in the manner Crichton describes as "the Die Hard way."
