Okay episode. Not my favorite, but D'Argo gets some good scenes.

Was this the first episode with Crichton's spiky hairdo?

I actually think I liked Melissa Jaffer's portrayal as Noranti more than the old Luxan woman.

That pulse bolt that Aeryn fired seemed really slow. Normally I wouldn't think that D'Argo would have time to run and stand in front of it before it even go close to hitting him.

In that bit where the hull breach in Moya gets stopped with Rygel's butt, I thought, "I've seen that somewhere before." Well, I now realize it was from the MST3K movie.

Heinlein wrote a short about a tunnel breach on the moon being stopped with a guy's buttocks.

The story was called gentleman be seated and was about an inspector who was touring the tunnels at the lunar colony when a rocketship accidentally crashlands nearby causing a slight rupture in the material of the thunnel. There are balloons floating in the tunnel filled with fixaflat if you will and the rigger who was trapped in the tunnel grabs a balloon and uses his rather rotund hocks as a temporary patch to seal the rupture and the two are saved at the last moment. Quite funny. I cant remember or quote of the top of my head which book the story was a part of but it is another fine story by a great author.

The story was in "The Past Through Tomorrow".

Ahh thank you. I had that book but leant my copy out back in college to a "friend" who decided to leave in the middle of the night for unrelated reasons and never gave me the book back before he left. I need to get around to getting another copy of it somehwere.
