==Summary==
[[Alysha Forrest]] arrives on the planet that has high platforms. Her supervisor ([[Vera]], see that entry for more notes on this story) finds that Vera can not function in such an environment. Alysha suggests that Vera tag herself as down and tell A to take over as a training exercise for A.
Vera does so, A does good, and in a later meeting between A and super's super (Shirrelberry) defends Vera. Vera (off screen and later) gets training to deal with fears. Vera thanks AF for helping her, and signs up for a parachute jump as test of correction.
