Tensions reach a breaking point in the latest episode of Strange New Adventures, "The Standoff." Freshly promoted Captain Marik faces her first true trial in the big chair as the crew of the Thunder Bay comes face to face with Commander T'Vala (Guest Starring Girafe) of the lethal Romulan Tal Shiar.
When Marik attempts to defuse the ticking time bomb through diplomacy, her words are met with the cold, calculating wall of Romulan resolve. The stakes turn deeply personal when Dr. Neldan is summoned to the bridge, forcing him into a harrowing confrontation with one of his own people and bringing buried pasts straight to the surface. Just as the diplomatic razor's edge threatens to snap, a sudden, uninvited arrival drops into the sector, threatening to completely destabilize an already fragile situation.
Find out how the crew navigates a web of secrets and Romulan disruptor fire in episode four of The Cries of Mars!
