Farscape 3·18: Fractures A group of escaped prisoners come aboard Moya followed shortly by Aeryn, Crais and Rygel who have finally returned from Talyn. “Someone makes a very close friend, what does this episode have to offer? Puppet sex, kidnapping, murder and a stupidly dangerous plan that takes them into the lion's den.” (thanks GoingMetal799!) “It's reunion time, and our crew(s) are making some new friends, but of course things don't go smoothly. Pick a shirt that suits you and growl like a Luxan as we uncover a traitor!” (thanks Nazzy!) “Not the reunion anyone expected, but at least someone gets lucky during a game of 'who done it' well until they get dumped ...then kidnapped.” (thanks Lucy!) “The crew plays a high-stakes game of Werewolf when parallel versions of themselves arrive unexpectantly. There's azure androgeny, froggy fragrance, and slapstick surgery. Old habits Die Hard and someone manages to Roshambo themself. Thrillingly, The Thing makes an appearance to invite us all to a Naked Lunch. ” (thanks Jon Bunger!) “The crew has guests, but it's not long before someone starts killing them off in a real life interstellar game of cluedo, maybe a game of operation might help diffuse diffuse situation? Someone calls the fuzz and not everyone has the ""pleasure"" they were expecting to when a mother and son are reunited (thanks Marky See!) First aired on Friday, 24 August 2001, written by Rockne S.

Farscape 3·17: The Choice Aeryn goes on a voyage of emotional discovery following John's death... “Here on the Emo planet, characters return, or do they? Characters who weren't characters before return, or do they?

Ok he's my dead ghost boyfriend. You hate him. You've hated everyone I've dated.

Meep! Buckets, bear traps, and banana peels can't keep Wile E Ka D'Argo away from our Roadrunner.

"Farscape 3·13: Scratch 'n Sniff Farscape goes Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Pulse Pistols in a colourful tale of a drunken caper gone pear-shaped. “Window shopping in fishnet stockings” (thanks EJ!) They're sucking juices out of 'Red', If we don't stop them, she'll be dead, What happened last night?, Are the girls alright?, I don't believe a word you've said!” (thanks Ric from the Delta Quadrant!) “lt's Fear and Loathing in Las Lomo! An expectation of relaxation quickly faces disintegration when intoxication, profligation, and illicit medication cause distraction and disorientation, allowing abduction, and subjugation. Without much preparation (and in spite of inebriation), our heroes undertake an investigation to discover their shipmates' location and, hopefully, secure their emancipation. Despite Pilot's disinclination, John attempts an explanation regarding their unscheduled reunification, but his disjointed recitation draws a hostile accusation of intentional obfuscation barring recohabitation.” (thanks Jenna!)“ Isn’t it find how tales after the bender get blown out of Proportion?!” (thanks The Derp Prime!) “While exiled from Moya, John and D'Argo party hard, and wake up in a storefront. Jool and Chiana are used to create a sex drug, and the guys must save them by pretending to be rich bidders.

Watch in delight as an erotic Farscape fanfiction gets turned into a full canonical episode. Who will pass the taste test?” (thanks MatthewB!) “The gang cuts loose while on mandatory shore leave in space Vegas and have a morning we can all relate to. The only hangover cure? Flash backs, Dutch angles, and trying Pilot's patience. Look out for Praying Mantis voyeurs, dance offs, somehow familiar pick pockets, makeovers, and big comfy chairs. And yes, he looks as good in fish nets as you imagined.” (thanks JoolCase!)
