Last episode ended with the captain remembering lying on the floor facing the wrong end of his own pistol, during a misinterpreted martial arts lesson.

SKI: The captain remembers how the FO intervened in the incident with the helmsman, and then takes the security officer to investigate an alarm condition.

[1] Is it clear that from <beq muvpu'DI' Hota'ro'> in 'ay' 27 to <"DunISchugh vay' qaHubchu', HoD," jangpu' DeghwI'.> in 'ay' 28 is a flashback/recollection. I've bracketed it with time stamps and used the perfective like a crazy woman, but it's probably still not clear. So hard to do. How can I better make that clear? At the time of the action, almost every action in the anecdote is complete, hence the pervasive perfective. pengach.
