Cecelia and Ronnie discover that the prince has become stupid. C reports it to the king. One of king's aids is one of C's childhood gang and despises C, and it turns out she caused the princes stupidity through drugs, and she gives C a drug that simulates a massive stroke. C is in a coma and is thought brain-dead due to faked scans, and is ruled incompetent. The rest of the story is the young people and Serrano running around fixing things. Very good story of C's recovery, a good space battle near the end, lots of just deserts.
