Following an attack on the Romulan Republic government which lead to survivors taking refuge on 777, the Tal Shiar attacked the station in order to finish the job. Unable to find the senators, Tal Shiar agents opted to abduct members of the crew instead, hoping that they could be interrogated for information. Captured members were transported on a ship before being split into three separate prison cells. 

Over the course of their time in the prison, the officers (plus one civilian) had to go through horrible tasks. Some were interrogated in the hopes that they would know information on the location of the senators. Some were forced into solitary confinement, or made to watch their colleagues be hurt as a result of their standing up against the Tal Shiar. Some were even used for experimentation. 

However, there were secretly resistance movement fighters undercover within the prison, and officers back on 777 did all that they could to track their missing officers and make a plan to get them home. While their initial attempts to chase after the ship that had done the abducting failed, but finally, they managed to break into the prison and get everyone home safely, alebit after over a week of imprisonment.
