[[Bernice Summerfield|Benny]] arrives on the artificial [[planet]] [[Eros (moon)|Eros]] from the orbital [[spaceport]] and has to explain to [[tourism|tourist]] [[Felterby|Mr Felterby]] that she is not the same [[Bernice Summerfield (clone)|Bernice Summerfield]] who serves as [[President of Earth]], something she seeks to avoid having to do again by donning a pair of [[sunglasses]]. After giving [[Adrian Wall|Adrian]] and [[Peter Summerfield|Peter]] a call to let them know that she has arrived, she visits old acquaintance [[Megali Scoblow|Professor Scoblow]], [[Jason Kane|Jason]]'s editor, at the [[Eros Scientific Relationship Consultancy]] to ask her to surrender her position as co-signatory of Jason's [[bank account]] containing the royalties from his books. Scoblow agrees, which surprises Benny, and they head to the [[bank]] to sort things, only to find that relations between Eros and [[Venus]] have broken down and all financial transfers have been frozen. According to rumour, [[Thanatos (moon)|Thanatos]] will attack Eros with [[war rocket]]s when it enters alignment. | [[Bernice Summerfield|Benny]] arrives on the artificial [[planet]] [[Eros (moon)|Eros]] from the orbital [[spaceport]] and has to explain to [[tourism|tourist]] [[Felterby|Mr Felterby]] that she is not the same [[Bernice Summerfield (clone)|Bernice Summerfield]] who serves as [[President of Earth]], something she seeks to avoid having to do again by donning a pair of [[sunglasses]].

Benny and Scoblow return to the Scientific Relationship Consultancy. There, Scoblow tells Benny about the [[Venusian]] [[ambassador]] [[N'Jok Barnes]] and Benny decides to steal the security codes for the Thanatosian armouries from his hotel room whilst he is on a date with [[Caspel]], a [[Love Drone of Quinn|Love Drone]], and thus prevent [[war]]. However, the Love Drones join the [[riot]]s which have begun across Eros, so Benny is forced to pose as one, using the alias "Jenny Wintermeadow". She is initially hesitant, but finds herself [[sex]]ually attracted to N'Jok and goes with him upstairs after an attempted [[bombing]] of the hotel. She fails to get N'Jok to have [[sex]] with her in the lift or [[jacuzzi]] to keep him away from his room and they find Scoblow and [[Safton Twisk|Vice Chancellor Twisk]] inside, Scoblow having found a [[negative hyperspace signaller]] in the safe before Twisk entered. | Benny and Scoblow return to the Scientific Relationship Consultancy.

Admitting to being [[human]], Benny has everybody turn around so that she can puts her [[underwear]] back on and slips out of the room with everything from N'Jok's safe. N'Jok informs the [[police]] and Twisk, with whom he is working to start a war, leaves to give a speech to the masses, but Benny replaces his speech with an excerpt from Jason's unpublished book ''[[Barely Humanoid]]''. | |||
