We are So Screwed - Part 1 - Farscape [02-28-03]

I was surprised to see no one talking about the Farscape episode from last week. Especially considering the number of things that were revealed

What exactly did Sikozu do to the control panel? What about Harvey 2.0? How about Dargo and Chiana in the mess hall?

Thoughts?

I've only seen a smattering of Farscape. But that has to be the best title for a TV episode I've ever seen O

 

[Keia]

I'm extremely tempted to use it for a session in my gaming group. Imagine the annoucement, tonight's game will be titled You Are So Screwed - Part 1.

 

[John Crichton]

Yeah, I usually start these threads. Busy weekend/week.

Actually, the full title of the ep is: We're So Screwed, Part 1: Fetal Attraction. Gotta love it.

I'll post my thoughts on the ep later when I'm out of work....

 

[Jamdin]

The last few episodes have been intense. I felt so bad at all the torture Aeryn had to go through that I was starting to yell at the tv (kind of like when I did when John was tortured a few seasons back).

I can't believe this show is going end so soon...

It's readily apparent that Sikozu is in fact a bioloid, much like Aeryn was in an earlier eppy. This explains some of her odd behaviors (why she can't take translator microbes, for starters).

D'argo and Chiana have always had that sort of tension between them, especially this season. They still love each other, it's just that it took them some time to get over the whole Jothee fiasco and accept the parts of each other that they don't particularly like.

Harvey 2.0 may or may not be telling the truth. The more important question is this - Who is Scorpius working for? It seems at this point he's a Scarren spy, but I somehow doubt this is really the case. That's just too neat and clean for Farscape. If we know who Scorpius is working for, we can decipher why Scorpius would make the deal with John (for the wormhole tech) even when he knows Harvey 2.0 is in there feeding him information.

 

[Khorod]

I don't know, I'm having a conspiracy theory of Sikozu as half-Scarran. When did it say Bioloid's have heat powers?

Also, I'm confused by wondering what Scorpius is all about. At this point, it seems very clear to me that he is very focused on saving the Sebatians- the half of his blood that has come to accept him. Being evil, powerful, and appreciative of order, I expect he might end up shooting for universal power if he decides shooting wormholes at Scarrans is a good idea.

Where have other possible motivations come up?

Great episode but It really brings it home that not only is the series going to end but it will end with a cliffhanger ending that's sure to make me want to pull my hair out. It's obvious they were building to a big final season (which will not exist) and that the story arc will be left unfinished in some major way.

 

[Hand of Evil]

Harvey is back! I really like the Harvey mind-clone.

If Scorp knows everything that John knows why has he been leading John like he has? What does John have that Scorp does not? What is Scrops doing?

Sikozu is part Scarran - was a surprise but should have seen it coming. Her race a slave race of the Scarran, the Scarren breeding program, discussed in the week before show. I said it before, she is a manchine, maybe bio but build for a job, that is why translator don't work with her. Now, does Scorp know? Has he known and BEEN training her, they have been together! It also makes me wonder if she was not planted just to learn about John!

On Sikozu

I am just reminded of the one alternate reality where Sikozu was the Scarran spy that was just captured by the peace keepers. When she attacked her face all contorted and looked like partially Scarran.

On to Harvey 2.0

Even though Harvey spoke of being improved, John still just slammed the lid back on him and that was it. It was only after John started having doubts about Scorpius that Harvey started interacting outside his mind.
