Servalan didn't immediately react to her officer not calling her 'Ma'am', but I doubt he's going to make it back to base.
"You're not sulking, I hope?"

Hower's dismissive 'oh dear' when he hears about Hal Mellanby's death is deeply unpleasant. Yeah, just because they were colleagues doesn't mean they had anything in common. Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

9m: Servalan flying around on her giant whale-shaped star destroyer Something less successful about B7 is when it tries to ape Star Wars. At least the space whale ship has an interesting shape. Generally so far with this episode I can already tell the "no violence ethos" plot, which is an interesting philosophical debate, is not quite landing. Needed another draft! |

3m: possibly the worst humanoid robot ever seen on TV walks in to serve drinks I thought it was ok. Was it the zip up the back?  🤣 |

Dialogue between Servie and her 'Supreme Commander' is pure venom both ways. I know on whom I'd be placing my bets. Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

'Let's fill up some time with more shots of the volcano'. Why? The poor volcano isn't the problem: Hower's 'deterrent' device is. Make that Hower is.
"You're not sulking, I hope?"

She tests out quite a few possibles, one way or another, but doesn't find any that match up. "You're not sulking, I hope?"

17m: Avon transports down to the planet to look for Dayna and Tarrant Cally on transport control must've thought about putting him inside the volcano I reckon. Also, Vila refers to the battle computers and I have to say any reference to them ignites my childhood imagination. Somewhere on Liberator is a trio of military computers arguing with each other and then with Zen. It's good fodder. |

Nothing sums up 20th century UK scifi like the PRESIDENT of the GALAXY walking around a paddock with four guards. There MUST be other things the PRESIDENT of the GALAXY should be doing. |

21m: The leader of planet reveals his crazy policy of using electric shocks to train kids to be non-violent... it just doesn't quite hold together as a concept imo I don't mean to be too down on this episode but sometimes they don't click with me |

Typical micro-managing I'd call it. Goes with the territory: paranoia. Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

Obsidian isn't her real target. What she's doing is trying to catch Avon. She has plans for him. "You're not sulking, I hope?"

28m: Dayna and Tarrant in trouble, Servalan springing her trap, an increasingly concerned Avon questioning Zen, Cally is tricked into transporting troopers on board, ships start to approach... The episode really does kick up a gear in the middle! |

31m: A rare case of Cally using her telepathy! Imagine how often they would have more wins if they let Cally BE Cally and embrace her weird alien skills |
