Okay, boys and girls. I agree with you; this was a goooooooooddddddd episode. Called Character foreshadowing. Remember what I said about giving us reasons why, when Scorpious comes calling, that the others won't simply say "Hey, he's your, bud?" Recall, Scorpious wants *only* Crichton.A) Now we know *why* tough-chick Aeryn fell for John's *sensitive* line, why she can (and most probably does) love him. What was all that looking at each other with goofy eyes at the end? :) B) Look for history to repeat itself. Once more officer Aeryn Sun is in love with a sensitive man who has *knowledge* that could win her favor with the Peacekeeper high command. (i.e.: Crichton's wormhole knowledge) Will she or won't she roll him to get what she wants back (supposedly home and hearth again). She has shown she is capable of betrayal. Also, her last love died rather than give up the knowledge he had about Moya. Coincidentally, so would Crichton die before giving Scorp the means he'd need to get back the place where he could destroy Earth. The only thing missing is a *blatant* lovemaking scene (in inplieds) with Crichton. C) We also find out that even Pilot is a rebel with our motley crew of rejects. Therefore, the scene is set for them now to reengage with the storyline of Scorpious vs. JC. All I think may be missing is a more in-depth view into Zhaan's mind and motives. IMHO, the writers are wrapping up things well (with a few bubble scenes), moving our characters along in a logical manner that is highly emotional and entertaining. Just plain ole good stuff. This was definitely an episode full of hidden meaning and fillers. Come on gang, what did I miss. You sharpies I'm sure caught something good. You always do :) That last scene was weird though, right? Was she saying, "No, I don't love him, I love you" with those eyes. On the other hand, was she admitting she *can* love, and was John processing the info that he had a chance. What do you think? lovetoadee
