A new take on the 'Big Brother' game.
You're stranded in space with your ship's hyperdrive damaged until you reach a space station of the Federation.
Being the first humans who made contact with the Federation, you're assigned to your own section of the station and two of you (Ann and Lisa) are found to be useful by the station administration and are given jobs.
The other two (Alice and you) are classified as drones,
so you're not allowed to leave your section until the administrator decides otherwise.
The other surviving crew member Kira is going under medical examination because of a parasite detected in her stasis pod.
