Pfft. Stealth. Worthless. On that Space Trek TV show, tracking stealth ships only ever took them about 2 seconds longer than tracking regular ships. Someone (usually either the annoying kid or the robot) would always figure out that the stealth ship was emitting trace zebulon particles, or reversing the polarity of space, or some such random collection of scientificish terms, and bam, no more stealth! A trillion space dollars worth of stealth-cloaking research wasted!
I certainly didn’t mean to malign Space Trek in any way. A fine show, indeed. Once they dumped the annoying kid, at least.

The big question is who’s going to knock Dax out of this funk? Can you guess by Wednesday? It’s like a game of Clue except Mr. Plum isn’t going to beat Dax with a candlestick.
I just assumed that Dax had gone with my plan from the previous strip’s comments and had moved on to step 2: Pout for 15 minutes. Per the plan, by Wednesday’s strip he will be out with his jetpack kicking that beach ball around. Who knew he reads the comments?
(Meanwhile, Natalie has probably rewired the kidnappers ship and taken it over by now, and has them waiting on her hand and foot.)
She seemed to handle defeating an entire ship full of of hard-core Space Pirates with no problem, what threat could a couple of second rate kidnappers pose to her?

What if these guys are 1st rate? Or even the amazing S rate? Their rating is so amazing that it’s just a little symbol for devil horns.
Can’t Sally track ships? Isn’t that their damned job? >.<
GET YOUR ASS IN GEAR DAX! Don't make me come in there.
I agree. There’s no reason for a capable mercenary to go around moping like he can’t do anything about it. Be proactive for heavens’ sake.
Maybe they had a stealth ship? You’d think kidnappers would want to be sneaky. Don’t worry, someone’s going to go in there.

Leading an evil armada by now I’d bet.
