Are you with me there, Mama Bear?
Oh yeah, Farscape.
I�m reading you loud and clear.
Authorizing flight computer to
initiate acceleration sequencing
now.
Roger Farscape, you are go
for insertion procedure.
Farscape One, hold a moment.
Hold?
Canaveral, what?
Meteorology reports some kind
of electromagnetic wave.
Repeat, some kind of wave!
John, do you read me?
Son, you have to abort!
Abort now!!
I only know what the doctor told me.
What the hell?
I think he's gonna come
out of it on his own.
Right.
I'll call you if
there are any changes.
Goodbye.
John?
That's my name.
Don't wear it out.
Nurse!
Call a doctor.
How you feelin'?
Uh, hot.
Dizzy.
Kinda
feel like I've been hit by a house.
You're gonna be okay, son.
You gave us all quite a scare.
I told'em you were a survivor.
Yeah,
I am that.
It's good to have you back, son.
What are you doing?
Son!
I'm not your son!
Get him off me!
Get off me!
Get your hands off of me!
Get your hands off'a me!
Let go! Don't touch me!
Aeryn,
Aeryn!
Right, we'll need full restrains and
can you get me a clean I.
V.
please?
Jesus, get'em off!
Get'em off me! Get the ba a .
this is not real.
It's not real.
My name is John Crichton
an astronaut
radiation wave hit me
I got shot through a wormhole
lost in some distant
part of the universe
on a ship
a living ship full of
strange alien life- forms
help Listen please
Is anybody out there who can hear me?
I'm Being hunted by an
insane military commander
Doing everything I can
I'm just looking for a way home.
Aeryn? Honey?
Could you get me out of these straps?
What happened? Last thing I remember
I was on a commerce planet.
Mister Crichton.
My name is Doctor Bettina
Fairchild.
Not Aeryn.
Bettina?
Cool name.
Still disoriented?
You have no brain damage
as far as we can tell.
You do have a fever, probably a low grade infection,
but some antibiotics should clear that up.
Might clear your head as well.
Hey, are they listening to us?
Is that why you can't talk?
Violent and now paranoid.
Perhaps another CAT scan
would be indicated.
Sorry.
I uh
fuzzed out there for a minute.
What day is it today?
Today is Monday.
Monday.
It's been a week since you crashed.
I crashed? I don't remember crashing.
But I I did have this
this
this terrible nightmare.
I was on a ship full of aliens.
Is that why you went after your
father and bruised two of his ribs?
Yeah.
He he looked like he was human but
he had alien goo on
the inside that was
pretty freaky, huh?
But now you know better?
Yeah.
Yeah, I'm all clear.
Look, I'm not gonna hurt
anybody, you can you can
let me out of these straps.
You called me Aeryn.
Old girlfriend.
You- you look a lot like her.
Except you have prettier hair.
Is my dad around?
Out in the lounge, I think.
I'd I'd like to say I'm sorry.
Probably best you did that yourself.
Thank you.
Do you good to move the muscles.
Thank you, Mister Crichton.
Would the owner of the green van parked outside
of admissions, please move it immediately.
You will be towed.
Won't get fooled again.
H- hey, you mind?
Sorry,
I thought it was co- ed.
Co- ed? What planet are you from?
Not this one.
Hey! Yo, yo, dude, uh are
you done with that paper?
Yeah, sure, here you go.
Thank you.
No problem.
'Gater victim number six.
Last week it was five.
They're gettin' the details right.
Hey!
Hey.
How you doin'?
Well, I'm better.
I'm
um much, much better.
Look, I am uh .
sorry about earlier.
No need to apologize, son.
You've been through a lot.
I lost it myself when your mother died.
Mom?
Papa Bear!
DK!
you made it this time!
Glad you're up and about, man.
I'm sick of getting reamed on my own.
Oh, getting reamed, are we?
Well, IASA's got a blown mission.
They're tossin' around words like
"pilot error".
There was no pilot error.
It was meteorology's screw up.
They didn't give him enough warning
about that electro- magnetical wave.
He was told to abort a dozen times.
He did abort!
Yeah, not soon enough! He blacked out.
And he still managed to land the module.
He trashed the sucker!
The Farscape project's
circling the drain.
Okay, what do you want me to do?
Pull it together.
First thing you need's
a clean bill of health.
Doctor Fairchild says
you're okay physically.
But she's not gonna kick you loose
without a full psyche report.
Doc Betty said that?
That's right.
You gotta get shrunk.
She wants you see a Doctor Kaminski.
Doctor Jean Cominski
Man, hot in here.
Hello!
Yeah, hey, uh, I'd
like to order a pizza.
Um, medium.
Deluxe.
Man, these guys are good.
Thank you Charles.
Sorry to keep you.
Zhaan.
Zhaan.
Adjective or name?
It's a name.
Then I'm afraid you're mistaken.
I'm Doctor Kaminski.
Uh huh.
And uh
you are a psychiatrist?
I don't think so.
On Earth, psychiatrists
don't come in blue.
Do you have a problem
with people of color?
I have a contextual problem.
You're an alien.
Yes, that's true.
But I do have a Green Card.
Interesting.
Are you or are you not,
blue?
Would it matter to you if I was?
Do you always answer a
question with a question?
Does that bother you?
Stop it.
Facts!
You're a Delvian.
A plant.
Tenth level Pa U.
We shared Unity once.
Shared Unity.
Interesting euphemism.
No, Mister Crichton, you
and I have never had sex.
I'm sure I'd remember if we had.
Put your hands on my face.
Humor me.
Just
Here.
Damn.
What were you expecting?
Expecting
nothing.
Hoping for an ally.
You feel you don't have any allies?
Not in this joint, no.
And my enemies haven't
revealed themselves yet.
And who are they?
The Ancients?
Nah, they picked my brain already.
Maldis.
Mm mm.
Not his style.
Not Gothic enough.
Delvians.
Mmmm.
Yeah.
Occums Razor.
Talyn and her wacky bunch.
Come out, come out where ever you are, and
see the young man who fell from the star.
Kim, cancel my three
o'clock appointment.
In fact, cancel the rest of my day.
Hey!
What'd ya tell her?
Oh, trauma, stress, crash, you know.
Made me imagine things.
Everything
she wanted to hear.
But hey,
I'm all better now.
So you got a clean psyche report.
Great!
Yeah, go
Figure that.
She let me loose.
I woulda
locked me up in a padded cell.
Yeah!
Ooooh, ladies.
You know that guy?
Gary Ragle.
Newest hot shot to come out
of IASA astronaut training.
Watch you back, he's got ambition.
Gary Ragle
has tentacles.
Yeah.
Oh my God!
Oh my God it's a straight boy!
What, he looks normal to you?
It's a lifestyle choice.
Anyway, his looks are the least
of his problems, he's a jerk.
Hey DK, how you doin'?
Ooo, missed it there.
How you goin'?
You almost ran us down, Ragle.
Yeah, not even close my friend.
How you doin'? My name's
Gary Ragle.
I know you,
you are John Crichton, I've
heard you're one hell of a flier!
Let's go get a beer.
We don't have time for a beer.
Ooo, no time for beer!
Beer?
Keys.
My friend,
one thing you have to learn.
There is always
time for beer.
I got a theory, though.
You wanna hear it?
No.
This is an experiment.
Somebody's messin' with my mind.
Tryin' to see which way I'll move next.
Sorta like a .
rat in
a maze kinda thing, huh?
That's right.
I am some alien's
personal science project.
I so know how you feel.
You know, life's a ***!
Let's get another drink.
Hyde!
I've got a plan, though.
Cause they're testin' for
reactions to the freak show.
I'm not gonna react.
Let'em deal with that.
Yeah!
Yeah!
Hey.
Buy a girl a drink.
Oh my God!
The off duty Doctor! Join us.
Gary Ragle!
Meet Doctor Bettina Fairchild!
Hi.
Hi.
Excuse me.
Do you two know each other?
No.
Never met.
How about another ale, eh?
What?
Another drink!
More drink!
Come on, eh? Three more drinks!
Yeah, I got it.
Pitcher of beer.
Sure.
Dig your style, Ringo.
John, we haven't got much time.
Twins.
Pity your mother.
Now you listen to me, he
he is not real.
Oh.
Right.
You are.
So, what's your name? Who do
you play in this fun house?
You know my name.
Scorpius.
Scorpy.
You don't fit the pattern.
You got no Halloween costume.
Got no assumed name.
You're not playin' a role.
That suggests something to me.
It suggests,
that you are the man behind the curtain!
In fact,
I'm the only one that can help you.
So what are you lookin' for this time?
You lookin' for wormholes again? Huh?
In fact, I have to leave now, John.
Nu uh!
You aren't goin' anywhere!
Okay.
Let's talk.
You're not Zhaan, you're not a psychiatrist
but you're as close as I'll get to either one.
I'm flattered, somewhat.
Look, somebody is gas lighting me!
It's probably Scorpius.
G- gotta
gotta gotta be Scorpius.
Been having hot flashes of the *** ever
since he stuck me in the Aurora chair.
W- what am I supposed to
think? W- what is this? I
I never left Earth?
Uh uh the whole Moya thing
i- i- i- is- is- is an
illusion? It's it's a dream?
What does that get him?
The thing is, he didn't
start out too badly.
You know?
Th- they didn't make the
mistakes that the last guys did.
Even Aeryn.
Even Aeryn
I could've bought.
Probably not,
but I I coulda bought it.
Aeryn.
You may have caught a
glimpse of Doctor Fairchild.
She treated you after your crash.
Yeah, and my feverish imagination
turns her into a Peacekeeper chick?
So what's the game?
I wish I could help
you, Mister Crichton.
It's strange.
I miss Moya.
A ship full of aliens becomes so normal.
There is of course another
interpretation for your confusion.
Yeah.
I'm still on Moya.
I'm gibbering.
I'm drooling,
and everybody's wondering
what finally made me snap.
That is one possibility.
Maybe.
Son? Got some news.
Oh yeah? What is it?
IASA's brought in a new project
administrator.
A Douglas Logan.
We can't afford to *** this guy
off, John.
He's a tough ***.
So what?
Listen, tough guy or not,
right now your future's in his hands.
Thin face?
Pale skin.
Bad set of choppers, likes leather?
I've only talked to him on
the phone, I don't know.
Nasty piece of work, though.
Nasty! Excellent! Let's talk to him.
Come on!
Nice digs, man.
Hey! Come in.
You're late!
***! You're here!
Ho, hey, fellas, meet the new boss!
Not the same as the old boss.
- Mr.
Logan, please excuse
my son, he's been hut up!
So! You're the reckless son of
a *** who refused to abort,
fainted and wrecked a multi-
zillion dollar module!
That's me.
Ah, astronauts.
Cockier than God, all of them.
Give me one good reason I shouldn't fire your
*** and shut down the whole Farscape project!
Sir, the the project could still bring
great benefits to this organization.
John's experiment'll pave the way
for deep space exploration, Sir.
Cork it already!
D.
Logan.
Quit it with the cards!
Now listen up.
IASA can't afford another failure.
We get your sorry project
right on the second attempt.
Quit it with the cards!
People will forget about the first.
Second attempt.
Yes.
The one I just authorized.
Now you can fly it, or Gary Ragle can.
I hate to reward failure, but
it's better P.
R.
if you fly it.
Public loves come from behind wins!
John, the module could be
ready within two weeks.
You can do it again, son.
Prove your theory's correct.
So that's the play.
The play.
The play, the play is the thing.
I re- enact
my initial mission.
I show you how
I create the giant blue twister
that sucks me down to Oz.
Forget about it.
Don't know how I did it.
Crichton!
Hey Scorp!
Are you outta your mind?
You think if I knew how I
did it I would help you?
Get lost!
Who the hell are you talking to?
Oh, um
not you.
You're not real.
What?
Mister D.
Logan.
Wha ?
Where are you going?
What the hell was that about? Are you
tryin' to sink the Farscape project?
- The guy gives us a second chance
and you throw it back in his face!
- Hi girls.
The guy,
the guy! The guy the guy
the guy's a two foot green slug
on a on a golf cart!
What does a man's disability
have to do with anything?
Crichton!
Crichton!
Son,
apologize to him.
Please.
Crichton I wasn't finished with you!
Oh honey, I'm sorry,
let's kiss and make up!
Oh! Are you deranged?
Why yes of course I am,
- lemme show you how I crash
landed the Farscape module.
- I should have your hide
It was an electro- magnetic whoa
son, you must abort! Abort now!
john!
Noooooooo!
Crichton! Crichtooooooo- !
What?
It's ain't real.
They made you up out of
my memories! It's just
annoying that you're acting exactly
the way I thought you would! And you!
Look at you Look at you
you're crappin' yourself,
because you think you're
gonna lose your job.
And Dad,
you're just pissed off because I
ain't playin' the game your way!
It is annoying.
Go away.
Go home.
Home.
Go home.
Shoo.
Hey.
- Hi! how's it going?
- Coma Estas, Hombre!
John, I want you to meet a good
friend of mine, this is Jessica.
Oh my God.
Everybody's finally here.
You're an astronaut, too?
Yeah.
Oh oh I like astronauts.
You're an astronaut groupie?
Yeah.
That so works for me.
You want to go for a drive?
No, John.
We must speak.
Does anybody see the
freak in the next booth?
- Uuuuhhh nope.
- No.
- No.
Then let's go for a drive.
Yeah!
We're on fiiiiiiiiiiiire!
Come on John, you're
drivin' like a chicken!
I've got a new theory on life.
You wanna hear it?
Oh yeah, man, lay it
on me, lay it on me!
Life sucks, nothing matters,
screw it all, let's partyyyyy!
I am so there!
Me, too!
Enjoy it while it lasts, Johnny- boy!
You betcha, especially
when nothin's real.
This is no time to be having fun, John.
Get lost.
You've gotta focus.
Fight this delusion.
What, like I believe anything
that you'd say? Get over it.
John.
John!
Listen to me.
It's time to bail, Scorpy.
Good morning.
The truck won, I'm afraid.
And how are our friends?
Gary and Jessica?
Mm.
Yeah.
They're fine.
As a Doctor?
Don't you think a crash
like that woulda killed us?
Well, we were very,
very lucky.
Oh yeah.
Now.
You have a visitor.
Who?
Dad? DK?
Someone new.
Uh, a Sheyang?
Captain Bialar Crais?
Bring'im on!
Thank god you're okay!
I came as soon as I could.
Don't.
This is a pretty good trick.
Considering you're dead.
Mom.
I had to come.
Oh sweetheart.
You're not real.
You're sweating.
Don't worry.
No, no.
Don't worry.
There.
I'll make everything alright.
There, my Johnny.
There, there.
there.
That's it.
Yes.
You've changed.
People change to survive.
But did you have to lose so much?
You were so innocent.
So full of wonder!
It's all gone.
You've become callous.
You've killed!
You can't know that.
It's true, isn't it?
That's what bothers you.
That's why you can't sleep nights.
I sleep fine.
Where are you going?
Away from something
that isn't my mother.
Are you going to leave
without saying goodbye?
Alright.
Let's do this.
Let's talk.
What about?
About what's goin' on.
Well I'm on my break, my man.
Why don't you give me a break, my man.
Well that's all I've got for you man.
I don't
know you and I don't care for your problems.
Yeah, great, you're not the guy.
You're not the guy .
.
I need to talk to.
Hey Carl, Carl, get this man a drink.
Comin' up.
John?
Help me.
You're not real.
I need you.
I'm afraid.
You're- you're not real, they
pulled you out of my mind!
You died five years ago!
John.
I'm scared!
I just want
out of this.
Stay with me, this time.
Be with me when I go.
No, please, this
please! Plea
Please.
I don't know oh god!
This is cruel!
This is cruel.
P- please don't.
I need you.
with me.
Please don't.
Don't do this to me!
Got a problem, pal?
Well, well.
If it isn't the good Captain.
Would I be patrolling a
beat if I made Captain?
Hell, I'm still buckin' to
transfer to plain clothes.
And give up the uniform?
Bad choice.
Say,
you're that John Crichton
guy, aren't you?
That astronaut.
I don't know.
Few too many, huh?
I don't know who I am anymore.
You better come back to the
station with me and sleep it off.
Just leave me alone.
Please.
Just
I'm gonna get you off
the streets, Mister.
leave me alone.
Don't.
.
touch me!
Leave me alone!
Leave me!
Me! Me! Me! Me!
Oh, my.
Look at this.
Ah, Mister Crichton.
Delighted to see you
again.
We're just discussing your future.
Well I don't have a future.
Not in this reality.
Son, you're in no shape for this.
You're clearly feverish.
John,
be careful.
You're risking a full
cognitive dislocation.
Oh, I'm about as
cognitively dislocated as they get.
But I am clear on one thing.
Scorpy can
either let me loose,
or watch me go berserk.
More berserk, I'd say.
You seem obsessed with
this Scorpius person.
Can you tell us why?
It can't be healthy for you.
You're not real.
Or
you're in on the plot.
Either way,
doesn't really matter what I do.
I'm disappointed in you.
You're holding us up, John.
Can we please get on
with our meeting, now?
Is anyone else hungry?
I'm starving.
Shall we send out for some lunch?
Oh, anything but Thai food.
Pizza?
No, I'm sick of pizza, how about Deli?
Corn beef on white for me.
Stoooooooooooooooop!
Have you any idea how
much trouble you're in?
Yeah.
Do you?
I like you're style Hombre,
but this is laughing matter.
Assault on a police officer!
Theft of police property.
Illegal possession of a fire arm.
Five counts of attempted ***.
That comes to
twenty nine dollars and forty cents.
Cash, check or credit card.
Toto.
This thing is going
completely off the rails.
Or maybe I have.
Not yet, you haven't.
But there's a danger you will.
You're here.
Bring the keys?
It's not me that's doing this, John.
It's a Scarran.
He captured you on the Commerce Planet.
I don't know any Scarrans.
What would a Scarran want with me?
Well now that the Scarrans know I'm
after you, they want to know why.
This their um
standard method of interrogation.
Induced delusions to break down all
mental defenses.
The Scarrans aren't
trying to fool you, John.
They're trying to break you.
This is a deliberate
attempt to drive you into
insanity and it's working.
Your mind is about to crack.
And I cannot allow
that.
I was here, first.
No you weren't.
True.
The Ancients were here first, implanting
the wormhole knowledge I seek.
But when my Aurora chair failed
to unlock that information,
I had to implement
a second strategy.
You put something in my head.
A very sophisticated Neural chip.
It contains
well
it contains me.
Or a mental clone of my um
personality.
That explains the
visions I've been having.
Precisely.
I was supposed to have
remained hidden but uh,
now then your subconscious
would become aware of me.
That's why I couldn't kill you on the
Royal Planet?
Of course.
A simple fail- safe.
But my main function
is to access the wormhole
knowledge you have in your brain.
No matter how long that takes.
You're Harvey.
Or is it Clarence?
Guardian angel.
Invisible rabbit.
Harvey.
Harvey.
Does the Scarran know you're here?
I only manifest myself when the Scarran's
attention is elsewhere, as it is now.
I must disappear when he returns.
Ignore the false
Scorpius he has created.
And do not confide in anyone
else you may encounter.
How do I know you're telling the truth?
You're sweating, John.
You've been unusually hot
all this time, because
because your real body
is reflexively responding to his heat.
The heat
a Scarran produces.
And when your body
temperature lessens slightly,
the Scarran is elsewhere,
preparing another onslaught.
It must not succeed.
How do I stop it?
Focus.
Concentrate on what is real.
Your true memories of Earth,
of Moya,
your family, friends.
Even your enemies.
Do not allow yourself to
be pushed over the edge.
But remember this:
the Scarran
has not disarmed you.
Your weapon is of no
consequence to a Scarran.
Their skins
are extremely tough.
Pistol fire will not kill a
Scarran before he kills you.
So,
you're best chance is
not to shoot but
But to what?
The temperature's rising, I must go.
To what?
Harvey!
But to whaaaaaat?
Oh, you look like you're
ready to have some fun.
We certainly are.
What are you doin'?
Nothing you won't like.
Nothing you haven't
already fantasized about.
Admit it,
you've had *** thoughts
about all of us, haven't you?
Not me.
Well, come on! You're a male.
It's just the way you were wired.
Nothing to be ashamed of,
not when females are willing.
So what's your pleasure, boss?
I'm a Doctor,
just relax.
I can wear a Freudian slip.
I'll find new places to
take your temperature.
I can teach you left handed
Latvian Rotator Torture.
All of you ***, out now.
Crichton is mine.
This is for calling me Sparky!
And this is for Fluffy.
And this is for Buckwheat.
Whatever that means.
Oh! Leaving so soon?
I wish I could!
Look at what you made me
do, John, open my veins!
You made me loose my job, you
dumped me for your new pals!
Some friend you are!
Some friend you are, man!
Oh come on, Papa Bear, look at what
depths your son has driven us to!
Don't look at me! You're the one who
wanted a child! I wanted a Terrier!
Oh, you couldn't give me
what I really wanted!
Oh, so we get this loser!
He can't fetch a ball, he
can't get my slippers,
- he can't even land a damn module in one piece!
- Oh no, Don't hurt my baaaaby
Freeze!
You're under arrest.
You have the right to the
remains of asilent attorney!
If you cannot afford one, tough
noogies! You can make one phone call!
I recommend Tracy: 976- Triple 5- LOVE.
Do you understand these rights as Ihave
explained them to you? Well do you, punk?
No
Then I can't arrest you!
John,
I really need to just
unburden myself on you.
What?
Well
lately,
I've been thinking about
you in a very different way.
And I was wondering if you would mind participating
with me in a little Luxan bonding ritual?
Here's the thing, okay?
What we need are:
some chains,
uh my Qualta Blade,
just a little squirt of Lutra oil and
oh! Chiana
Chiana.
Yeah.
She wants to watch.
Oh no.
Oh yes.
Such a fascinating library you have!
Such wonderful informative books.
The Oedipus Complex?
I'm not sure
I grasp that concept.
Could you um
explain it to me, Johnny?
No.
Oh, please?
You're such a smart boy.
I really
I really want wanna know.
Hey John! Get down and boogieeee!
Boogie- oogie- woogie!
Hey man, get down! Boogie on dooooown!
Oh, no- no- no- no- no!
I don't boogiieeeeee!
Crichton!
Crichton! Where are you?
Where are you? Where
are you? Where are you?
Clear the floor! Clear the
floor! Clear the floor!
Searched half this world for you.
Where am I?
Still on the Commerce Planet,
but underground in some sort
of holographic chamber.
I destroyed the projector.
Who nabbed me?
Scorpius.
Sc
I killed him.
Scorpius.
So
he was behind this?
Was being the operative word.
That's interesting.
Why is it interesting, John?
It's
just that he, uh
Tell me.
Later.
Let's uh
let's get out of here.
No.
Tell me now.
No.
No, you get nothin' from me.
Frell you, then.
Stay.
Boogie on dooown!
Hey, yo!
Kiss my
friend you are, man!

Then I can't arrest you!
Be with me when I go.
Brain wave patters are
increasingly irregular.
Captive is finally weakening.
Increasing stimuli to Kelvo nine.
Kelvo ten.

Well done, John.
What happened?
I feel like .
I died.
I had to stop your brain
function for a few microts
to divert the Scarran.
No harm done.
I'll go back in your
subconscious mind, now.
Don't get too comfortable.
I'm gonna get that chip outta my head.
There's no chip in your head, John.
Yeah there is.
You told me that .

there's a um .

M- m- mental
chip in m
As you were saying?
What am I saying?

take you back to the surface of this Commerce Planet.
I leave you to your shipmates, John.
But rest assured,
I'll be with you always.
Keeping you safe.
