This is the episode that showed Farscape had really grown up. It is a character study on Pilot, Aaron as a Peace Keeper and coming to terms with the decisions that the crew have made.
Aaron is shown to be a cold blooded killer who will sell out even those she loves to get her way. Pilot is given a full back story and suddenly changes from a simple deliverer of exposition to a full realised character who is also not as innocent as he would have seen.
The cast are on top form and Claudia Black and Ben Browder pull out all the stops as each has to re-evaluate their relationships.
Simply put this brings into sharp focus the different shades of grey that our "heros" are living in. They are not off on some galactic quest to save the universe, they are simply trying to get through to tomorrow and sometimes they do things that could be considered downright nasty.
