Synopsis:
Following their escape from a Dominion prison Vril Dox leads a group of interplanetary misfits to his homeworld of Colu. Their ship soon falls under attack by the Computer Tyrants which rule the planet. Dox, the son of Colu's greatest traitor, the original Vril Dox, was handed over to the Dominion. The Tyrants view him as a threat and want him dead.
Garryn Bek pilots the ship and makes a landing on the surface of the planet. The passengers barely escapes the ship before it is destroyed. They are then captured. The prisoners, especially Garryn Bek, blame Dox for their imprisonment. They also realize that Dox manipulated them into coming here.
While the argument continues, the Durlan, who has not been captured, has infiltrated the security center. He shuts down the power, allowing Dox and the others to escape. The Tyrants, eager to be rid of Dox order the wholesale destruction of their own facility in order to eliminate the escapees.
