In "Guns Up!", the starship USS Eleanor Roosevelt, commanded by Captain Chyvonne Quint, is on a mission of peace and justice. The all-female crew, who believe that "if you want to get something done, and done right...GET A WOMAN!!!", are en-route to a fleet assembly point.

The Navigator, Mini, discovers a slave transport ship off their planned course. She reveals to Captain Quint that her sister was taken by slavers during the Dry Sack Rebellion and might be on board the ship5. Despite the deviation, Captain Quint changes course to investigate.

The crew of the USS Eleanor Roosevelt boards the slaver ship, led by Sergeant Metzinger. They quickly seize the ship, free the captives, and impound the crew and captain. Captain Quint questions the slaver ship's commander, a man named Cody, who explains that the women are being sold as slaves by the government of Terra Firma as a form of "rehabilitation" to make a profit. He sees the women as nothing more than cargo, like "grain, guns, [and] girls". The women, who are forced to wear identical hot-pink dresses and have their heads shaved, are "crew-graded" on a scale of one to ten, and their numbers are painted on their bellies.

After rescuing the women, Captain Quint leaves Cody and his crew behind, believing that they cannot fix a "bad system" but can save a few people. The Navigator's sister, Maxi, is found among the freed captives. It is revealed that she lied about being part of the Dry Sack Rebellion and was actually arrested in Terra Firma. The USS Eleanor Roosevelt then resumes its original course at top speed to make up for the lost time. Captain Quint puts the Navigator in charge of the freed women and contacts Commander Cody via radio, warning him to cooperate with the Fleet's investigation to avoid her personal intervention!
