Another QUARK fan here. Damn - pre-VCR (at least common VCRs) lost show. Feh! I remember there were unaired episodes of that too!!!!
Stark ended up not bothering me, because he became not-annoying by the end. Actually, I thought they did well by the annoying characters - Rygel, Stark and Granny all managed to be useful. Stark did get more annoying time, where Rygel was mostly doing the mpreg thing.
I was most disappointed by the treatment of Jool. WTF was up with her macking on John!?
Also wondering about the scene fragment someone mentioned with Grilshuck and Sikouzo.
Stark struck me as a tool. In both senses of the word, transitioning from idiot to device.
I confess, I've always liked Stark. I must grok his crazy in a way that is different from other people. I like his crazy and his lucid.
convenient parcelling of the crystallisation.
Granny was able to
tell the difference between an Aeryn!Crystal and a Crichton!Crystal by tasting them in her mouth. (This was after Rygel had regurgitated them).
Ewww!!!
But that doesn't explain how
the baby was one and only one separate crystal, and the one crystal that Rygel forgot.
That's convenient.
ita, I was assuming
he didn't forget so much as it revivified and attached itself to him, being that it was the advanced-handwave-Sebacian embryo.
The
wee bairn unskittled itself?
Why (and how) would it do that?
It did it because of reasons, you see. And because of those reasons, that's how and why it did it.
That's right. Very very important reasons. That's why.
