I'm still trying to absorb this one. There were times it I really liked it and other times when I wanted to throw things at my TV set.

What I Liked:

Harper! For once the guy got the girl, even if it was only for a few days. I've been rooting for this since the first episode!

I loved the exchanges between Rommie, Harper, and Tyr.

Harper: "That must be why they say space is a vacuum."

Rommie and Tyr: "No, they say space is a vacuum because space is a vacuum." :lol:

Visiting another planet! We haven't seen a good episode involving another planet and it's population in a long time.

Dylan saving the day. It's rare that this happens and I like it, but this reminded me of first season Dylan so it turned out being pretty good.

What I Didn't Like:

Beka. I didn't like her at all in this episode. I not believe for a second that she would have betrayed the crew like that. Pointing a gun at them? Pushing Harper around? I just can't picture her acting like that. (If you couldn't tell this was when I wanted to throw things) :angryfire

One thing that bothered me, if Beka went to all the trouble to get off the Andromeda, why would she just go back because of Rommie and Tyr?

Able was kind of annoying. If he really lived Beka as much as he claims to he wouldn't have let her risk her life and the lives of her friends for him.

I give this an easy 4 out of 5, even with the Beka characterization.

I enjoy this episode a lot, specially because of Chris Potter guest starring as Able Ladrone. It was so cool to see him in Andromeda. Enjoy his performance and his kind of Robin Hood character style.

Well, him and Beka make a great couple so I found it interesting. One of my fave moments was when at the end Dylan, Harper and Able appear to Beka after she thinks Dylan killed Able. And when she hit Able, Harper say to him that is the time to beg for mercy but he recommend to run like hell and Dylan says to Harper that they should run like hell. :lol:

I agree that it was good to see Harper get the attention of the girl for a moment.

Hey! One thing I notice was that the ships of Technocore where similar to the slipfighters.

If you recall Rommie said that Technocore was constructing ships and weapons for the new Commonwealth.

Yeah, Rommie was taking off in the Slipfighter with Tyr when she said that so you can't hear her very well.
