Homeward

Homeward is the seventh episode of the fifth season.

Tagline
Terenar and the redshirt nicknamed Rakelli reveal their love on the bridge when the ship is headed for a redshirt resupply on Malachor V, due to the numerous casualties sustained by the crew during the past four years of their voyage.

Act One
While on the bridge, the Rakelli redshirt reveals what led it to join the Tal Prai'ex: the redshirt's expulsion from the police academy. Vaebn Mairex is overjoyed when he was going to visit his wife's home and he began to ask a few questions to her pertaining to her life before the Lyran Starfleet. She said that she never gave the permission to her parents to use the money from her sponsorships. Taev Radaik got word from Enriov Suleanak that all their requests to resupply photon torpedoes and redshirts have been accepted. Brianna has been invited to speak at the Fulmina Prize ceremony as a guest speaker.

Act Two
Terenar then revealed that he was once shortlisted for the Fulmina Prize, never winning it. Brianna Reiss then revealed that the prize was named after the House of Fulmina, and Stella questioned the wisdom of glorifying cheating, even when the bridge officers were present on the grounds of Lagdou University, more precisely, in the stadium. However, to do so, they have to leave Ulduar in charge of the ship. Brianna could only speak a few lines after major announcements that included the winner of the Prize, Lucario, as well as the creation of a chair dedicated to cheating studies.

Act Three
Lucario expressed his gratitude towards Brianna herself as he learned that one of his professors was one of Brianna's students. Meanwhile, Terenar went to a restaurant to run the mega-steak challenge, eating a 72-oz steak in an hour so that he could get his meal for free. Mizarh was surprised to see Terenar eating meat on stage but learned that it was a holdover from ancient Lyran history. Also, Vaebn, as well as Brianna and Mizarh, all proceeded to eat the same things as Rakelli before Terenar could complete his gauntlet.
