We didn't have sex, if that's what you mean. That's all I do now, not have sex.

Boxed Set, Vol. IV: It's always suicide-mission this, save-the-planet that.  

A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect Adult Content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.

Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.

Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.

This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

I think that I refuse to see the Stark/Allison because I dislike his character so much. I think that he reminds me too much of the asshole academics that I work with.

Also, when is GD going to get a new government liaision? Allison got promoted and the position just seemed to disappear. I think that it would be interesting if that position was filled by someone with Carter chemistry and we could see Allison getting all pissy and Stark-like.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Ooh, Vortex, I like that idea.

I also liked the Zoe subplot, and suspect that the reason she sparked more with Lucas than Jasper is that his sense of humor is closer to her father's. And simply adored Jo, but that never stops.

Was it just me or was her hair a lot longer this episode?

CFerg's BBOC effect

Are we going to need to explain this to him the next time he's in here? I sense that could be... awkward.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

It's that or refer him to an archived thread from before the Phoenix Board existed to review the genesis of the concept. Which is the lesser evil?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I'm more than happy to step unto the breach. I mean, compared to RPS?

Ooh, right. I had blocked that out forgotten about that.

Guess it's not so bad...

Art Crawl!!!

He should like having the BBOC factor. It's a compliment.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

I love this show, but the science doesn't bear close examination.

Yeah, although at least they had some of the chemistry stuff right this time. PEG is used for exactly what Allison said it was used for. PCE (pentachloroethylene) is used for dry cleaning, but it's a liquid, not a powder. OTOH, Aluminum 26 doesn't exist naturally on the earth (although it has been made synthetically), and is unlikely to be present in moon rocks, either (or at least, not anymore :) ). Henry should've referred to it as an isotope, not an element. It does, however, make for a nice homage to Star Trek's transparent aluminum.
