The second season finale opened up with the crew dealing with a new mission. They had to rescue a Starfleet vessel but saved an alien civilization as a part of their first contact mission. The Cerritos was tasked to join forces with a race called Leuperians in their first contact mission. There Captain Freeman met her old friend Sonia Gomez. While the mission could lead Freeman to promotion, she failed to transfer her command to her crew. However, Beckett Mariner overheard this and shared it with her junior officer friends. She seemed anxious that a stricter commanding officer could replace her mother.

Meanwhile, Rutherford suffered from malfunctions causing automated alerts to block his vision. Mariner informed the bridge crew about Freeman’s promotion. But the rest of the senior officers had some grudges as she left everyone behind. As for D’Vana Tendi, she suspected Doctor T’Ana was willing to transfer her, believing her lack of skills in medical. Later Tendi and Sam Rutherford went on tour as she believed she only had a few more days on the ship. Soon Tendi restored his vision, letting him get full access to the field.
