Queen Paolana, ruler of Hysperia—a Renaissance-style society from a planet that was colonized by fantasy enthusiasts—hails the Cerritos to ask for help from her son, chief engineer Andarithio Billups. Billups reluctantly agrees to look at her ship's engines. He is wary of his mother's repeated attempts to lure him back to their kingdom by having him lose his virginity, which, by Hysperian tradition, would result in him ascending to the throne as king. Boimler is disappointed after he is reassigned from an exciting field mission to a seemingly less interesting one with Mariner, escorting a malevolent artificial intelligence named AGIMUS to Earth. Their ship crash lands on a desert planet, where AGIMUS attempts to sow discord by revealing that Mariner had Boimler reassigned because she did not believe he was capable of the field mission.
