Fleeing from a gang of Nitzcheans Dylan, Beka, Tyr, and Rev Bem are forced to crashland on a planet.
At least we finally learned Rev's full name (aside from Red Plague), although he sure went downhill fast. He manages to go without food for 3 weeks, then bam!, he's on death's door.
Wow, the Maru is something else. Takes weapons fire, crashes on a planet, falls 200ft down a sinkhole, and still manages to be spaceworthy. Starfleet could learn a thing or two from her (maybe they'd even manage to keep a ship's shields up for more than the first 10 secs of a fight).
Wow! When do you _get_ Andromeda in your place? I won't be seeing it until Saturday! (It's not fair! Someone else gets to enjoy the show before I do! (-= )
Dylan, Beka, Tyr, and Rev are being on the Eureka Maru being chased by a group of Nietzcheans. They are forced to crash on a ice planet and are hunted by the Nietzcheans who after Tyr. The group of Nietzcheans helped Tyr steal the progenitor's body from Drago pride believing they would have held it for ransom instead Tyr abandoned them.
Rev Bem who has been fasting for the past three weeks is slowing starving to death and needs to eat a fresh kill in order to survive. Unfortunately there seems to be no source of food.
Meanwhile on the Andromeda the clean up continues as the Magog bodies are disposed of. Harper still infected by the Magog larvae does not want to go near engineering or anywhere else he was attacked and desires to end his life.
---A good episode.
I must say that the Eureka Maru is a tough little ship.
Under what we know about the characters Beka and Rev have known each other for seven years.
Rev full name is the Reverned Behemiel.
The Magog's body starts devouring its innards if it goes too long without food.
Beka says the Maru is covered with snow, but the external shots didn't make it look like it was covered that much.
Dylan goes out into the cold without headgear? Doesn't High Guard survival training say that one can lose 80% of one's heat through the head? (At least for humans.)
Good thing those Nietzchiens are lousy shots. Genetically enhanced my ***.
The Sqworm who made the tunnel was supposed to be as big as the tunnel. However the attacking Sqworms are much smaller. Tyr even comments about one being momma & it's tiny compared to the tunnel.
Jessica, I watch Andromeda on Sky One, a British satellite service. It airs on Monday nights.
(In case you're wondering, I'm US military stationed in Germany.)
