Episode 139: The Road To Utopia Plain by Rick Kennett

In this sequel to "The Battle of Leila the Dog," everybody's favorite Gartino, Cy De Gerch, returns home to Mars after nearly losing her life and her ship.  But Mars is not the home she remembers . . . and her life there is not quite her own.
 
Afterward, Big and Rish talk about second chances and parallel timelines.  With lots of irritating musical references.  Be warned.
