Farscape 08.09
Pretty good episode. Sluggish at the beginning.
For some reason I thought that drug that Crichton's taking was going to figure into the whole "assassin" plot. Guess not.
I'm really getting tired of Chiana getting her ass kicked.
Was there a reason for certain scenes/lines to be repeated? Or did Hammer cut their budget in her effort to kill the series forcing them to repeat things to pad the hour?
Interesting SG-1 Contest. I am SO interested in having a SG-1 character named after me.

I'd apply for the SG-1 contest, but they're already using someone with my name -- and it's not a particularly common one to begin with.
I was having trouble following the episode at the very start as well. Probably something deleted that'll show up on the DVD giving a little more setting info. I didn't catch if this "Aeryn assassin" thing was in any way related to the episode I only caught half of a few weeks ago when that ship came looking for her and Scorpy appeared on board. Have they explained that yet?

The repeating scenes thing was bizarre, made even more bizarre since it made no sense and had no point. The only thing it did was introduce us to all the players on this planet...but there's better ways to get that done.
I'm intrigued as to where the Cricton happy juice story is going and exactly how grandma figures into it all, I'm still not convinced that she isn't working against the Moya crew.

The scenes were repeating to illustrate how perceptions change if you only know part of the story.
When a scene repeated, it added more dialogue to the beginning to let you know more of what was going on.
