You may play this personnel at cost +3 to reveal the top four dilemmas of an opponent's dilemma pile and remove each dilemma that has a cost of 1 or more and does not require a skill from the game. The remaining dilemmas return to their owner's dilemma pile.

Where exactly are the remaining dilemmas placed? On the top or (face up) on the bottom of the dilemma pile?

Whenever dilemmas are returned to a dilemma pile, they are returned face-up to the bottom of the dilemma pile unless specified otherwise.

ntimmons asks:

I would just like to clarify the timing on this dilemma. When the choice happens to replace this dilemma with the revealed dilemma, we are into part "h" and well passed the cost deduction part "e" of the process, and whatever dilemma is revealed is 'replaced' and continues along in part "h" where we process the text of the dilemma line by line.

I am assuming the bonus to this dilemma is that it could very well get you a dilemma that costs more then zero for the low-low price of "Consume 2." It could also potentially let you face a planet dilemma in space or vice versa as the planet/space check happens in part "e" as well, or it could flat out fizzle and for the low-low price of "Consume 2" you get nothing (Skeleton Crew? awesome.. I wanted one of those to be put out of play... that is exactly what I wanted...)

N!

The dilemma revealed by Repressed Message is processed beginning at step "f. 'When . . . about to face . . . dilemma' triggers process."

This means that you may face a space-only dilemma at a planet mission or vice-versa, the cost of the revealed dilemma is not counted against the total cost you may spend on dilemmas, and you may even face a dilemma you have faced previously this mission attempt.

Two questions:

1st
From the rulebook:
"You may play equipment at cost +1 at this mission"

where exactly does this ability refer to? only directly at this mission (which would mean it doesn't work in space), or ANYWHERE at this mission (which would mean you could play equipment aboard your ships, but also aboard an opponent's ship at this mission) ?

"At this mission" means on the mission or onboard a ship located at the mission. This means you could use Miles O'Brien to play equipment cards aboard an opponent's ship at that mission.
