Plot points/Scenes

Episode 6 starts about a few days after the events of Episode 5: Shadows & Memories

Show spoiler

Episode 6 starts with Anaya in the wilderness, running to/from something, hearing Mishak Urami's voice, and she is also confronted with Nisho and Ula. We leave here there, trapped in a tube of familiar design. This is clearly another hallucination much like the Commander experiences back on Tivon in Episode 2.
The Commander is filling out a log at Oluna's behest, explaining the recent events as the crew comes to terms with their new course of action. The Commander, Nali, Cea, and the Captain are all planning for the coming mission to Gorivaz to rescue Anaya. After some coaxing the Captain decides to send a team in, leaving the selection of the team to the Commander.
The team is then given some time to relax while the Inanna travels to the shuttle launch point. The Commander starts off initially nervous over the coming mission. Nali comes to apologize for her behavior during the planning meeting. After she leaves Doctor Carina comes in, explaing what has been going on with Adam and also why the Commander's servant has been temporarily relieved. She tells the Commander to get out of the room, relax and converse with the crew.
The Commander does as such (which is comprised of three blocks of time, allowing the Commander to move about at times to visit other people).
After relaxing it's time to start the mission, which has had everyone on edge, but there's hope they can rescue Anaya.
