The same as when it's plugged -- it reads the active file and stuff.
Of course, if you only update the Agent active file from the same Gnus 
that you're reading unplugged, there won't be anything new in there,
but I use a separate Gnus to fetch news/mail from the one I read in.
The one I read news in is always unplugged.
