I was pretty sure this one was an episode I loved, and it is. I mean, I'd forgotten a lot of the details, but it's so amazing to see Aeryn so vulnerable, Crichton prove himself a little to her and D'Argo, Rygel help save them, etc, etc!
And remember how I said I really, really loved this show? It's inspired me to make my first ever episodic picspam! Caps from Farscape Caps because my computer wasn't cooperating.
Look how much they invade each other's personal space!
Uh. Yeah. I just wanted to point out that until her arm came off, John didn't think there was anything unusual about Aeryn beating him up.
Aeryn: It's up to you.
John: Aeryn, no. I'm trying to--
Aeryn: Before the living death takes hold, you have to be prepared to kill me. Promise.
John: No, not a chance.
Aeryn: You said I'm not alone. A friend would do this for me; family would do it swiftly.
John: Aeryn . . .
Aeryn: I feel the living death.
John: No. No, you hold on. I won't let it happen.
Aeryn: It's not your choice. Remember your promise.
John: Hey, remember me? Didn't we meet at a party a few years back?
Aeryn: Some of what happened, I can't recall -- but almost everything else has come back.
John: How are the shakes?
Aeryn: I'll be fine. You know, I always thought that lesser life-forms were useless. Just something to be squashed.
John:Yeah, it's . . . it's humbling when you realize that . . . you're not talking about the Draks, are you? Fine. Well, on behalf of lesser life-forms everywhere, I accept the . . . compliment.
Aeryn: Could you have kept your promise?
John: You know, all things considered. there are worse ways to end a day.
Okay:
1. Look at those smiles!!
2. Hahaha, She thinks he's a lesser life-form! But maybe not a useless one!
3. I think John would've killed her. Maybe not right away, but I don't think he would've let her suffer for long.
And now, that gorgeous closing shot:

I know! Then again, Aeryn practically sat on his face when they first meet in the pilot, so...
And I really need to renew my paid account so I can have Farscape icons again!

My first time, I liked it well enough to keep watching, but I didn't really get what the big deal was until the second season! But now I see so much to love in these early eps. Everyone's so young and innocent (especially poor John. He has no idea!).

Heh. I'm just going to start nagging you until you do it. ;)

I know, right?? They were just written so well the entire time. Part of me is so impatient to get the later episodes, but I love that you can see all the seeds in the very beginning. :)
