First time I've had the feeling that both Avon and Zeona already know this is a suicide mission.

Zukan and Zeeona almost seem to have a psychic link - she feels his death!

What are the odds of a fully trained tech accidentally taking off her personal protective equipment before checking for the all clear?

First time I've had the feeling that both Avon and Zeona already know this is a suicide mission. It's not a suicide mission. She took the glove off delibarately, despite as a scientist, knowing what would happen. She committed suicide when she could have survvied. The question is: had Avon picked up whether she would do that. And if so, that smile... Edited by trevor travis on 19-12-2023 20:33 Vote Og.

Well, that was a downer, but I am sure next week's episode will be uplifting enough to make up for it.

Kryten would probably think Zeeona is looking quite well (late obligatroy Red Dwarf reference).

But why would Zeona commit suicide? Because she is ashamed of her father's treachery? Because, deep down, she knows that Tarrant doesn't really love her? |

Possibly she's still in shock over the psychic force she seems to feel when her father dies. Tarrant is too blinded by love to see it. But what about Avon? Vote Og.

There's a distant star... Great episodes (one of my favourites, actually) and a great rewatch. Thank you all for the company! I don't know whether I can make it on Thursday. In any case, have fun with the final episode! Good night and nice dreams of photocopiers!  |

Well, on that happy note, I'll say goodbye. I can't be here for Blake on Thursday, but I expect everything will be fine in the end. 'Night all.

So Servalan is off to pastures new...probably sending her crack marksmen to Gauda Prime, where she has another secret cunning plan going on, in case the chaps stationed there can't shoot straight.

But why would Zeona commit suicide? Shock over her father's betrayal and death? But I like B7 is still treating its intelligence with respect and letting them work out things. It's not explicitly stated "she killed herself". But it deosn't have to be. We know she's a specialist in this area and we know she's fully aware what would happen if she removed her glove. Vote Og.
