The crew heads to Albian, to find a man that may have information on the new location of Central Control, the Federation’s central computer facility that controls all the computers in the Federation. The Federation Officer, named Provine, once work at the old facility.
However, upon arriving, they find a revolt in progress and the rebels winning! Worse, when the Federation Officers realize they may lose the planet, they activate the ultimate weapon, a device that kill everyone on the planet, but leave all the structures intact.
Blake’s crew must now help the rebels disarm the device before everyone on the planet dies, and find Provine, who has been trapped on the planet without a means of escape, and who now may have blended himself in with the rebels.

Episode Quotes |
| |
Vila: Terrific. I'm really looking forward to this: danger, excitement, sudden death. I can't wait. | Avon: Doesn't it make you feel good to be wanted?
Vila: I've been a wanted man all my life. Now what I want is to be unwanted. | Avon: It would be stupid to be shot at by our own allies.
Vila: Not only stupid - painful! | (Vila opens and closes the space doors, creating a great deal of noise)
Blake: Why don't you do that again? Maybe they didn't hear you! | Vila: (opening a door) The old magic's still there.
Avon: The old ego too. | Avon: Hello, Del. It's been a long time.
Grant: I thought you were dead.
Avon: I heard the same about you. Wishful thinking, perhaps.
Grant: I'm glad the stories were wrong. I felt cheated. We have some things to settle.
Blake: You two can talk about the "old days" some other time. Right now we have a problem that's a little more pressing. | Grant: Thank you.
Vila: Anytime.
Grant: I'll remember that.
Vila: Oh...will you? |
