Mothership: The Long Haul - episode 2

Rylan Caliber's haul takes a darker turn as The Phantom suffers a critical power failure near a derelict courier ship. What should be a simple scavenging run becomes a biomechanical nightmare. Desperate for repairs, Rylan docks at an abandoned 4M Corporation mining station, only to discover a pair of survivors with a deadly secret. Between vacuum-suited cannibals and transparent space horrors, Rylan learns that in deep space, rescue can be more dangerous than smuggling.
