"It has been a really bad day ..." Sien Sconn was just minding his own business at his favorite dive when a young woman caught his eyes. Little did he know she was a New Republic operative running from Imperial agents — or that he'd be plunged into a hair-raising starport chase from stormtroopers, a bounty hunter and a ruthless Imperial officer. Come along for the ride with Sconn and New Republic agent Shandria L'hnnar in One of A Kind.

==Behind the scenes==
Although the summary on the back cover of this issue mentions Galactic News Service reporter Kella Rand, the character would not make her appearance until the next one, Star Wars Adventure Journal 6, in the short story Kella Rand, Reporting.... 
That issue would also reuse the sentence "The misadventures of Galactic News Service reporter Kella Rand." in its summary.
