Femme Fatale [what else?]

Am attempting to play through FF again but cannot get the info from Rigel about the missing freighter.
Have recommenced several times but no matter how long I wait, No message from Alana.
It's a pain as I cannot complete the plug.
Any suggestions how I might stir up Alana?

I've encountered the same problem using EVO 1.0.2 and FH 1.0.4 and have yet to figure out a solution. Can anyone help out?
