Orion siblings D'Vana and D'Erika settle a clan feud with a dangerous asteroid race.
The Pirate Queen of Orion orders the war between the Tendi clan and the Blue Orions settled by a dangerous race through an asteroid field. D'Vana discovers that D'Erika is pregnant and becomes so protective that she interferes with the race and causes a crash. D'Erika explains she hid the pregnancy so D'Vana would not feel bound to stay on Orion, the sisters reconcile, and the race ends in a tie, with both clans stripped of their wealth.
Meanwhile, the Cerritos helps Targalus IX transition to a post-scarcity economy, and Boimler and Mariner rescue two ensigns kidnapped by wealthy Targalans resentful of losing their status. Tendi arranges for the discarded Targalan riches to restore her family's fortune.
