The Dwarfers find themselves in an alternative version of America where modern technology is prohibited, making Rimmer and Kryten illegal. The Dwarfers infiltrate the tech-savvy underground and try to bring down the authoritarian regime.

When the Dwarfers investigate a crashed ship at the bottom of an ocean moon, Lister and Cat become trapped together and Lister's nightmare begins. Meantime Rimmer and Kryten discover the ship is controlled by a dark force.

After an altercation with a deranged droid, Lister has his kidneys organ-napped. The only solution is to ask Cat, the most self-absorbed creature in the universe, to donate one of his.

After a scandalous piece of good fortune, Rimmer saves the life of a bio-printed captain and is promoted, fulfilling his life-long dream of becoming an officer. He immediately opens an officers' club, which is out of bounds to the lower orders, and uses the bio-printer to fill it with versions of himself.

Kryten has a mid-life crisis and changes his body cover from mech grey to Ferrari red. The posse try to show him how much he's achieved in life by taking him to visit a mechanoid from his old fleet.

Cat takes time off from being in love with himself to fall head-over-heels in love with a female cat with a big secret.
