Nowhere To Go

Dark Matter
S03E13
Season 3 Episode 13

That was a great season finale! 

The Dwarf Star Conspiracy came back to haunt them & this seemed more like the Double Deception than the last thing. I can't believe those other small corporations betrayed the Mikei Combine to side with Ferrous Corp.

The Zairon alliance with the Mikei Combine was great. It's like the Dominion War. The space battle was pretty nuts, I really liked that piece of debris flying at the space station, it was right out of Attack of The Clones.

Also the black ships came out of the breach! It was like an episode of Babylon 5 with The Shadows coming out of Thirdspace!! 

This show has really gotten better. They are going full sci-fi now. I can't wait for next season!!

S03E12
Season 3 Episode 12

They are burning though all those prophecies really quickly. They've already done the Dwarf Star Conspiracy & now the Fall of the House of Ryo while the season isn't even over yet. But future 5 was super old when she was talking to future Android. So it doesn't make sense that she would remember such small events unless these things are going to have far reaching consequences next season.

I didn't expect Misaki to betray 4. but it makes sense, she didn't like him & he didn't do anything to win her over. He didn't last very long as emperor. He got so distracted by the blink drive that he was making all these bad decisions. I don't even know what his stupid war was about. He turned out to be really incompetent.

It's bizarre that 2 has a clone-baby. That is super strange. I don't even know if that's possible. The robot uprising has already started. Was that in the list of prophecies? Stupid Shaw.

The Dwarf Star Conspiracy

Dark Matter
S03E11
Season 3 Episode 11

I like that we didn't see Wesley Crusher again. Hopefully he will die off screen.

I can't believe we learned about & mostly resolved the Dawrf Star Conspiracy in 1 episode. There better be more to it, because 5 discovered that there are simulants already embedded in other corporations. This storyline needs to last a little bit longer. 

I guess it will have to wait now that 2 was kidnapped! I did not see that coming.

I can't believe that doctor killed himself & had the destroyer nuke it from orbit! then he shot himself! Those Mikei Combine people are no joke! Zairon subjects are nothing like that.

Season 3 Episode 10

I knew they were going to eventually put Sarah into a body. I thought it would be a clone, but an android body is cool too. That sucks for 3 that they had to separate. They didn't even give each other a way to find each other, although I guess Victor has the Raza's com signature. Dr. Shaw is an insane person to make androids sentient & give them free will. Hopefully it will be different from the Synth storyline on Humans.

I like that everyone told Android how much they love her just the way she is & don't want her to change. It sure seems like she has emotions.

"Well. This is a little awkward."

This season's ret-conning of 2 is incredibly annoying. At least she remained 2 & so did Android.

It doesn't make sense that Shaw didn't inhabit the android body. Why would she give it a personality if it was going to be a shell? Now 2 has another origin story? Nobody seemed to know she had nanites but shouldn't she have known before 1's memory wipe?

Isn't That A Paradox?

Season 3 Episode 9

OMG Terra Prime! I didn't think the show would ever go there. They did, of course it's 600 years in the past. I like that they never said what the actual date was & everyone was dressed in slightly futuristic clothes like Wild Palms.

"You’re a disaffected youth committed to sulking and avoiding all social discourse."

This was a pretty funny episode with Android making cookies & making the crew go shopping. I like that 3 mentioned all this planet-based future tech that we've never seen. Especially because 2 was like "when was the last time you wore grav boots?"

Then 6 had to ride that kid's bicycle. I have no idea why the Alecto Corp Blink Drive inventor changed his mind & agreed to give one to them, I'll have to re-watch it.

Season 3 Episode 8

The opening fight space scene was pretty cool, the war is all over the place. i hope they do more of that, like the dominion war.

Is this the same meeting that the Ferrous corporation was trying to get the location of? They were all on the Raza but Android didn't kill anyone, so one of them did it. So much for them all joining the League of Autonomous Worlds.

Ouch, 4 got called out by 6 on his pathetic internal war & how he's losing. At least he won his fight against 2 by going up on that walkway.

Wait, the Raza has Transit Transfer clone pods on board? That seems like a terrible idea. They should be in a locked room, not in the general storeroom. 

How cool when 5 deactivated Android, but yeah, that lucid coma for the hacker sounds horrible.

Wish I Could Believe You

S03E07
Season 3 Episode 7

I figured out that 6 was in a simulation the way that everyone kept asking him where the location of the rebel summit was. They tricked me when he was rescued by the Raza crew & he was still in the simulation, that I didn't expect. I did figure out that 6 had tricked his kidnappers when that general guy asked for their coordinates.

He didn't seem too bothered that everyone on his planet is dead. 6 has a wife & son? Apparently not anymore because his kid was calling that dude daddy. 

At first I didn't like the way the show was starting the next story at the end of each episode this season but I'm getting used to it now. So 3 did something bad to Sarah that 4 knew about & apparently Sarah remembers too. I'm not sure why she's pretending like she doesn't know, her memory wasn't wiped, why didn't she just say it the 1st time he showed up. Why was the android wandering around & pointing a gun at 3?

Season 3 Episode 6

I forgot about the mirror mirror doppelgangers. Sorry, no Jace Corso in this universe. I was wondering why 2 & 3 were floating all those innocent people, that was terrible. 

Android did see that coming.

How old is 5? She was flirting with Adrian, I was not expecting that.

It's a good thing they were able to convince commander Truffault that it wasn't them. Are other ships experiencing this crazy stuff or just the Raza?

Give It Up, Princess

Dark Matter
S03E05
Season 3 Episode 5

This was pretty good episode, I like that Adrian had them flying all over the galaxy trying to get the location of the Ferrous Corp shipyards.

Honestly, I don't really care about the Zairon empire. They better be going somewhere with this, because 4 being angry all the time is boring. Another reason they shouldn't have killed Nix. Hopefully he'll forgive Misaki & they will sleep together so he won't be so mad all the time. Who are they even fighting?

I'm losing track of all these corporations. I think I should find a list of them online.

I can't believe Android gave the human chip to some random android in a warehouse, that was so dumb.

Seriously? The dumb girls said this every chance. When Adrien wanted to impress her & when he ready to abandon her for money, it was really annoying.

Sure, 5 can flip Solara, a 6 foot tall amazon.

S03E04
Season 3 Episode 4

This was a really good episode Cause and Effect episode. It was pretty funny with 3 playing spoons with Android & then learning French! It's crazy that Android said that phasing technology is supposed to be a decade away but there was a functional time machine on the ship, that nobody even knew about!

At least 3 went to visit Sarah & saw that she reacted differently each time, so she isn't a computer program. Maybe they will stick her in a clone body? If she ever traveled that way, it's possible they might have her dna on file? I forgot how that works.

Android: Please tell me. What awaits us?
Five: So much… Dwarf Star’s conspiracy, the double deception, Crida, Carina, the accelerated, the fall of the House of Ishida. The meeting with your creator. The black ships.

What was that crazy flashforward we saw with Android traveling far into the future where 6 is an old lady? That was nuts, it's like when Kes was time traveling in "Before and After". It was pretty cool, I hope all of that stuff is planned out like "War Without End." Android mentioned the butterfly effect so unlike when the Andromeda Ascendent helped decimate the Nietzschean fleet in "Angel Dark, Demon Bright" some of these things may not come to pass or they might come to pass slightly differently.

Oh look the bodyguard is a lesbian & now that they retconned 2 into having a crush on Nix, it's obvious where this is headed.

Welcome to the Revolution

Dark Matter
S03E03
Season 3 Episode 3

I like that they mentioned the league of non-aligned worlds.

What the hell, just like that, 6 decides to stay on that colony? Have we even heard of this corporation before? That didn't make any sense. They should have let that girl be in charge of their revolution. I guess she was too weak to lead, she couldn't even stop that angry beardo guy from attacking the corporate security guys. I did like how 6 just shot that guy. He was acting so powerless earlier.

Then they replaced 6 with the new handler & his bodyguard. Hopefully they will stick around awhile. because it sucks that they got rid of the new crew from last season. At least they mentioned the old crew of the Raza, which explains how they had their bad reputation so hopefully they will show up. 

It Doesn't Have To Be Like This

S03E02
Season 3 Episode 2

It's a good thing they mentioned the travel clones, because I was wondering how 4 got to the space station so fast. I like that they are mixing Star Trek-type stories with their corporate crime stories. They blinked into basically a static warp bubble. That psycho scientist girl killed that dude, he was right though. I'm glad that 3 shot that girl scientist. Enjoy your honorable death that nobody will know about & that accomplished nothing, moron.

They made it seem like 5 was going to get amnesia but it seems like the android was successful in only erasing her old memories.

4 found out that Misaki killed Nix, he was not happy about that but at least android knows that he did not order her death. Not that it matters, everyone seemed to gloss over the fact that he did make the space station explode & killed thousands.

Season 3 Episode 1

"The secret ingredient is Basil....and love. But mostly basil."

I can't believe Ryo Ishida blew up the space station. I am curious what corporate war is going to look like or if The Raze will be framed for it.

Stupid 2 was like "Don't make her a damsel," even though that is exactly what 5 is because Commander Truffault had to save her. Why do they bother with sjw dialogue, it always backfires.
At least 2 tried to save 6, but then because every show has to have a lesbian, they decided she would fantasize about Nyx, which just came out of nowhere. What a dumb scene.

They made enemies with Ferrous Corp so that should be interesting. Then 2 said that they are going to steal back the blink drive and kill 4! It's too bad that the crew keeps getting smaller.

But First, We Save The Galaxy

S02E13
Season 2 Episode 13

What an awesome season finale!

It looks like 4 let them go from last episode but now he is trying to make what happened in the alternate universe happen in the normal universe.

2 promised us a heist episode, even though this one was sort of like a heist episode. They went undercover, even though nobody wore a disguise except 5 so 6 got arrested. They really should have done a better job of protecting the blink drive.

I liked that they used light-minutes & that Aslinov Exclusion Field that can disrupt an FTL window& 

They took care of the bomb that Ferrous corporation brought to the space station but there was another bomb so the episode ended with Eos-7 blowing up while everyone was still on board & Nyx was poisoned by Misaki! I can't believe that ending & the show isn't even cancelled!

S02E12
Season 2 Episode 12

Such a good episode.

As much as I wanted some of the crew to be more of who they used to be, I did not expect 4 to kill his brother. He must have remembered something from those old memories that we haven't been shown on the show because he had all those people killed. Maybe he was just removing all the claims to the throne but that was pretty brutal.

I knew those prediction guys were there & I also knew that 6 telling 4 that the blink drive was too powerful to be on warships was a bad idea. It's a miracle he didn't have the Raza crew killed too. He must have spared them because they rescued him or he does have feelings for Nyx, even though she sees that he is different now.

Unless Alternate Jace Corso comes to their rescue, I don't see how they are getting out of this one.

Season 2 Episode 11

I like that we got to see 3 be himself when he just killed those guys who kidnapped 5. Usually he doesn't get to do what he wants but whenever he's without the crew he kills anyone who gets in his way. The sour fruit was pretty funny especially with the oatmeal at the end.

Looks like 4 is going to go through with restoring his memory. Hopefully he won't leave the show like 1 did. They could have all next season be about him & Zairon. That would be way better than 6 & his ridiculous idea of them becoming the new Liber8.

I really liked that the Galactic Authority used clones to send officers to arrest them. Why haven't they done that before? Why did they keep calling it a station when they were clearly on a planet?

Season 2 Episode 10

This was an ok episode.

"Most likely to protect herself. Another indication of aberrant behavior."
"I didn't delete anything. An indication you don't know what you're talking about."

It was funny when Android was bickering with Holo-Android. Holo-Android sure seemed evil but technically she wasn't. I thought those rogue androids had hacked into android's higher functions to give her that weird human dream but it turns out that Truffault from the other universe left a virus in the Raza's systems that infected Holo-Android & Android.

The hallucinations were interesting. I liked 4's sword fight with Misaki. I don't think we've seen those weird mask guys before who were trying to kidnap 2. I'm surprised she didn't hallucinate about 1 the way that 4 & 3 hallucinated about specific people.

I can't believe 4 is the only one who saved his old memories. He should figure out a way to restore some memories & help Zairon like the alternate universe 4 did.

Season 2 Episode 9

Terra!! It's basically Coruscant. It even has a space elevator, but somehow it doesn't have a space border patrol so criminal ships can just fly into orbit.

I liked that the scientists thought the retinal disguise machine was cool. It's too bad they killed that dude that was nice to 2.

I forgot about the blink drive. They just used it without checking if someone was in that hangar. Does it displace things like the Terminator time spheres? What was that thing that was in 3? Some alien? I expected that to be the next episode but they took care of it in this episode.

Are they going to get rid of 4? Why can't he just get Android & 5 to restore his memories? They were restored once before.

"We went 1.2 miles"

A Mirror Mirror episode! The other universe they are not happy that the Raza is blinking all over the place & destroying things.

I like that they went back to the pilot with the Miners, & Jace launched a nuke to kill everyone! I wonder if he's on that marauder with FTL that blinked with them? Who else was crazy enough to do that?

There were two bad guys from season 1 who were on the ship, 3 cheats on 2 with Tash & they have S&M sex. I recognized the guy, Wexler from last season but I had to look up who Tash was.

Delany Truffault of the Mikkei Combine was the one who gave them the prison plans with her eyes & then she used them when she MIB'd them. So she's some kind of cyborg.

Did 2 tweak the android? Are her nanobots breaking down?

She's One Of Them Now

S02E07
Season 2 Episode 7

This didn't really feel like a heist episode, even though it basically was.

I can't believe that 5 killed 3 & 4! Well, their clones, but she did technically kill two people. I like that she went into the vents again! I like that Chief Inspector Kierken is closing in on them. It may be a big universe but there's still tech to help you find people.

"Your outfit, it's very....snug"

Alicia Reynaud not only stole the blink drive from some other corporation she has her own clone pods. This is probably what leads to the corporate war that the seers told us about. How cool is the Blink Drive.

I'm glad that Talbor Calchek is back, they should get more missions from him. I can't believe they killed Devon. They should have kept him on a little longer. Nyx should have went with him. That's too bad.

"I'm dropping the shields? 
What? Why?
So that I can do this."

How did 5 get her hands on that key if it's stolen tech from some other corporation?
