Anthony Lemke who starred as James Murphy on the Robocop Prime Directive mini series will guest star in this episode as Leydon Bryce-Hawkins.

An ancient artifact is stolen and the crew of the Andromeda decides to steal it back in order to bring peace to two warring factions.

Pretty good ep. Dylan, as usual, gets the best lines:

Tyr: Would you like me to kill them for you?
Dylan: Yes.

So now Trance is supposed to be as old as hockey and hangs by her tail? Can't say she's one of my favorite characters and this season isn't helping.

My, Harper sure recovered from his major depression right quick. Although maybe those Magog eggs distracted him from spotting that last surveillance camera.

If the Than general was so determined to start shooting, why agree to the 7 day waiting period in the first place? Commonwealth negotiating policy? (The Than were the first members of the new Commonwealth.)

For criminals they sure talk a lot about what they've done & are planning.

Why wasn't Trance wearing gloves while commiting the robbery?

I thought it funny that the Than called the guy "spineless". If the Than are as buglike as they appear they don't have spines, just shells. (Unless she meant spines in the pokey sense & not as a synonym for backbone.)

Mandy, Trance is not necesarily as old as hockey. In Angel Dark, Demon Bright she navigated the Andromeda back in time. Maybe she had seen a hockey game after a similar situation? ;-)

Nit:As Beka walks into the garden, the outfit she's wearing covers her left shoulder with the white legging on her right leg. As she starts talking to Tyr, it changes to right shoulder and left leg and remains that way for the rest of the show. It appears the shot of her entering the garden had the image flipped for some reason.
I also thought the "hidden panel" in Leydon's room was rather obvious.
Still a good episode overall.

Dataport date: 8.20.10088

And if anyone cares, Seamus Harper's dataport can be accessed at http://205.180.62.192/
He includes logs with dates for each episode.

You mean Harper actually wrote the logs himself instead of some flunky running the website?

Thanks for the info. (More fuel for nitpicking.)
