- What happens in "They've Got a Secret"?
- The episode opens with Ka D'Argo and John Crichton discussing the ongoing sweeps of Moya for Peacekeeper devices, while Pilot explains that the work is necessary. During the search D'Argo falls through a chute and is ejected, though the sources describe the accident differently: the official YouTube description says he destroyed a Peacekeeper shield during routine searches for Peacekeeper beacons, while the Wikipedia summary says he was flushed into space while inspecting access shafts for hidden, dangerous Peacekeeper technology. He is recovered unconscious and frozen after roughly half an hour in vacuum.
- Once revived, D'Argo tells the crew he does not remember the Peacekeeper device he apparently found. While he recovers, Zhaan identifies a substance on the malfunctioning maintenance DRDs and on D'Argo as biomechanoid fragments from Moya's biopolymer structure, and the crew concludes that a biomechanoid virus left behind by the Peacekeepers is infecting Moya's systems.
- As the sabotage spreads through Moya's systems, Pilot's vital signs drop sharply, putting the ship's biological interface at risk. In the middle of the crisis, D'Argo, still recovering from his injury, tells Crichton about his former lover Lolan.
- The episode weighs the hidden dangers the Peacekeepers left inside Moya against the crew's need to keep trusting one another and the ship they live on, and it closes with the crew dealing with the biomechanoid infection in Moya's systems.
