HERE THERE BE SPOILERS. The problem with stealing a ship and escaping into space is that one must then decide where to take said ship, and Dal and his friends face that same issue in “ Starstruck.” However, the complicating factor for Dal is that the former Unwanted have even less of a destination in mind than he does.
