On the way to [[Venus]], the [[power cell]]s of [[Bernice Summerfield|Benny]]'s [[Bernice Summerfield's spaceship|spaceship]] fail and she and [[Peter Summerfield|Peter]] are forced to stop at [[Absence]], a [[cluster world]]. She applies to join an [[Interspatial Systems Acquisitions]] research expedition to the interior of Absence to be able to afford the necessary repairs to continue the journey and makes the unwilling Peter do so as well after [[Cindy (Absence)|Cindy]] notes how useful he could be at heavy lifting, not wanting to leave him alone with a hand-to-mouth job.
