Hey Mr. Moderator (or Ms.),

I saw this ep listed on another site as Self-Inflicted Wounds Part 3: Different Destinations. Do you know which title is right? (Cause I sure don't. Not that I want to start a whole debate of Workforce Part 1 or Part 2, like on the VOY board.)

What is listed is correct. I get my titles from the official Farscape page (scifi.com/farscape) and they listed it without the Self-Inflicted Wounds before it.

Mr. TUE

O.K. Sounds good to me.

Personally, this episdoe really depressed me. It seemed that no matter what they did, everything kept turning out bad (I guess I'm just a naturally cheerful person). And the end, seeing how all the nurses got slaughtered like that, ugh. Very, very depressing.

Still, good acting and a good storyline. And I'm also glad that they didn't try to explain the whole time travel thing. Sometimes VOY just really annoys me with trying to explain everything (sometimes •••• happens!)

The fact that there wasn't a happy ending was kind of refreshing. I guess I'm kinda used to that big reset button that makes everything better if all else fails and it was nice that for once someone screwed up and had to live with it.

Though I felt bad about the little girl

Does anybody know the reason for Virginia Hey's departure? Did she want to quit or did the writers boot her?

According to her newsletter the official Virginia Hey web-site (yes, she writes a newsletter that's posted every few months or so,) she is here for the long-run. Her advice was to allow the creators to take the viewers on a ride and to trust. So, hopefully she will be back.

I'm still very worried that Scorpius's continued presence in John's head is going to dilute the real character. But I may digress.

On that topic, though, do the rest of the crew still know he's talking to Scorpy? Do they even know he's still *in* there? If I were Aeryn and I knew, I'd sleep light.

I don't know about the rest of you, maybe I've just been watching too much Star Trek, but I was actually quite shocked at the ending of this episode. Not that it was bad in any way, though, far from it! Quite powerful and well-written; bravo to the creators.

Matt Nelson--

Aeryn knows (I think they all do, but Aeryn definitely knows). I reference Aeryn's line in this episode that queried if Dargo was jealous that she and he were the only ones *not* hearing voices in their heads.

A great episode. It's so refreshing not to have the Big Reset Button hit at the end of each episode, and to not always have a happy or upbeat ending.

While I laughed out loud at Scorpy playing the harmonica, I wonder how long before it gets dull that Scorpius - of all characters - is the light relief.

Immediately after Harvey’s harmonica solo, there’s a scripting error – either that or Ben fluffed his lines and the director didn’t notice. John and Aeryn are talking about young Dacon: Aeryn is implying that he doesn’t have to die while John disagrees, believing that he must die in order to restore the time line, but he says, “If Grines dies, he’s a hero who averts a war.” He should have said, “If Dacon dies …” Grines was the Horde leader who died earlier after being shot by one of the nurses when John was helping him escape.

Did anyone else notice that Harvey's boot had "Andy" written on the bottom? Toy Story?

I understand that that was Ben Browder's idea (Andy being written on the cowboy boots, that is).

According to her biog on the IMDB, Virginia Hey left partly because of having to constantly shave her head and eyebrows, but also because the blue body make up was making her ill (kidney problems!).

Can't really say I blame her.

Everything I read about herdeparture basically boiled down to her being tired of being bald n blue all the time.
They apparently tried a skull cap during the intial trials but it never looked right so she just shaved her head.

Just saw this one last night for the first time. It was a good one. I really liked it. Time travel and timeline messing is a big thing in sci-fi, but Farscape did it well and in its own way.

It really was a sad ending. I was pretty moved when D'Argo found the girl's name carved in the wall.

I can now see how so many Jool haters popped up. Wow, she is really annoying in this ep. The pee scene was funny, but she screams like three times. And they're extended screams. That was not enjoyable. I may not have liked Jool nearly as much as I do if I'd seen this episode originally.
