What happens
Commander Buzz Corey and Cadet Happy test the new Star Drive spaceship on a run toward the star Vega. A spacesuited stranger named Erdu boards their ship and introduces himself as a representative of the Galaxy Trade Association, which invites them to join. Buzz rejects the offer and suspicion grows as the stranger's motives become unclear. The two pilots face a difficult choice as they try to understand what the Association really is and what it wants from their solar system.

Written from the episode itself; it never gives away the ending. Every recording is remastered for the stream: cleaned of rumble, hiss and mains hum (and the old TV whine where we found it), then levelled in two passes to steady broadcast loudness, so one show is never quieter than the next.
