minxyThis season 4 marathon (first watching) was made possible by the beautiful Shunda.
Top of the stack of discs: Collection 2/ disc 2 (seriously, what the hell? Who came up with this collection nonsense and WHAT were they smoking?)
A Prefect Murder.
Previously on Farscape: Aeryn = preggers, John = junkies, heroes = going somewhere dangerous.
Prefect = someone who could help Chiana, who is sleeping her way across a planet, but won’t.
Aeryn = taunted by a kid with dreads and having strange flashes of visions.
Wow, John is talking to a man with a long, long face. I think that might not be prosthetic. “Oh God, she’s talking English, I must SNORT COKE?” John, your logic is frelled. And also fucked.
The radiant Aeryn Sun. Feel free to just hold that tilted close up on that woman’s face as long as you like, show-making people.
Share the wonders I’ve seen indeed. How can you not lust after Aeryn, I ask you?
Did we not… just see this scene? Well, there are a few more KNIVES in this version. Still with the bad hair, but.
Hey, Sikosu is getting nicely laid. Good for her, that’s pretty love. Prolly frelled ultimately, but there you are. I thought Chiana was the one they were saying was sleeping around?
I am thinking that perhaps we are playing free a loose with the timeline of this story. Awesomecakes.
Chi, and Sikozu, have *both* slept with the prince? I get the feeling Chiana didn’t actually shag the prince, but may be covering for Sikozu.
Interesting psychological kinds of dangers here. I mean, they’re physically threatening to some degree, but it’s mostly, effectively, psychological.
Except the creeping drumming picked up again, only it was gunfire this time, and Aeryn SHOT D’ARGO? Something is rotten in the state of Denmark.
And the young son educated off world is going to wrestle with expectations and identity.
I’m thinking Aeryn is pre-programmed. Somehow.
High roads, low roads, Scotland. John for God’s sake, knock it off with the drugs.
There she is! Yup, she’s confused and she doesn’t know why or remember much.
Crusty the floating priest! There are no bugs on this planet? How do they pollinate their crops? Huh? That’s just a bad plan.
Huh, okay, all the good guys on the same side.
Now the long faced guy and the Asian dude with the blue eye are the bad guys and they have Chiana’s head on a plate, only she’s immune. And the Asian guy has mental powers and makes bugs out of his gills.
And Chiana’s eye’s went blue. Isn’t that somehow related to the visions she occasionally has? And then goes blind from.
Oops, we’ve got a problem with John and Aeryn pulling guns on each other. Did it happen? Did it not? Okay, not.
Only, guns drawn again. Could we please remember that Chiana is immune to the bugs and possibly the telepathy?
Friends arrive, yay. Priest has a weapon in his flighty thing?
Wow, that’s some image of Aeryn and Crichton on the floor, possibly moving beyond the stalemate? Let’s hope, the drug addiction was starting to become really tragic. It’s remarkable how moving a line like ‘It did,” can be when Claudia Black says it.
Is Sikozu thinking of coming back in half a cycle then? That’s interesting.
And some gentleness between John and Aeryn as she mourns all the people she killed.
Coup By Clam.
Previouslies: Scorpius. Pregnancy, who is the father? Tormented space.
Everyone just went purple. Moya isn’t sleeping well, Sikozu eats once a month? Everyone just went green.
This doctor is a quack, seriously. ARE THOSE CALIPERS? And hey, his nose is running and that lightbulb up the nose looked painful. (HEE at Crichton failing to get all the noodles into his mouth.) And the quack poisoned them with clams, and will charge a hefty fee for the cure. Interesting that he’s not in the least shady about it. Nearly gleeful, in fact. Is Scorpius the only one who hasn’t eaten at all?
Symptoms look like madness? At the moment it looks like intestinal distress.
The woman behind the guy in the hat looks like Aeryn a little. Only not any more. Just a play of the light.
May I exposition the mollusks? No! Who cares! We give up! We’ll pay double if you shut up. – at least they admit to the exposition.
The old lady is totally giving herself an orgasm from booze? Yay for D’Argo being funny, though. That never gets old. HA.
One more word of technobabble. Own your exposition!
Huh, Scorpius is discovering interesting misogyny amidst this planet’s people. And Chiana distrusts a girl who looks androgynous. Except, you know, I didn’t really think she was passing very well.
Oh gracious, this is the crossdressing episodes? *doubles over laughing.*
Yanno, Crichton went with very neutral lip color. Why is he hugging a wall? Oh, I suppose he’s looking for some sneaky way of finding the girls.
Wait, Scorpius is going to share the deteriorating state in the hopes of spreading the difficulty? Okay, Crichton is getting rape threats, the girls are in seizures and need rescuing and Scorpius is meditating?
Ew, Rygel ATE THE QUACK’S NOSE? That’s creeptastic.
Don’t bitchslap the guy, Crichton, hit where it counts in the groin and HARD.
Aw, the girls saved themselves, that’s better. Hey, that was a good doubletake of Crichton. “Don’t ask, it was Rygel’s idea”?
One of these under your skirt? John, srsly.
Scorpius force-vomited at it somehow precipitated the bacteria in his cells? There are so many things violently wrong with that logic that I’m just going to wave my hands in a big, BIG way and yell froonium three times whilst turning in a counterclockwise spin.

Date: 2008-03-02 06:11 am (UTC)I love the Farscape attitude towards things like infodumps. The characters don't want to hear it any more than the audience does. :)

This is frequently a good plan. :)

Date: 2008-03-02 01:24 pm (UTC)So totally my reaction.
Maybe Scorpius's weird DNA thing with strong mental training mean he managed to keep the clam bacteria all in his stomach? I don't know - mostly I was amused by how ridiculously bad John was at being a girl.
[and, oh, man, I'm a bit ahead of your now and ...the three episodes you have next? Made me remember why I loved this show]

Date: 2008-03-03 02:30 am (UTC)So, was Claudia Black pregnant and that prompted the storyline? They wrote a pregnancy of hers into Stargate, after all, and most shows don't deliberately create children for their characters to deal with.
