Unfortunately that ending story path only progresses when Dispatch notices salvor gets caught, you can click the NTRish button in the options menu to disable those scenes but I didn't want to change the gameplay impact so the pirates will still be disabled.
After that happens, there's a conversation about it with an after-mission conversation or 2. That should put you on the right track. Although the exact details of how the full rest of the story plays out are fuzzy for me, if there is a problem I think the best solution would be to try ending more missions to see if there are any remaining after-mission conversations.
