Suns and Lovers

Eager to spend the loot acquired from robbing the Shadow Depository, the crew of Moya head to a commerce station. The situation becomes disastrous when the commerce station is hit by a violent storm, severely damaging the station and trapping Moya in the docking cables. The storms may not be natural phenomena, but weapons of wrath used by religious zealots to protect their Sacred Stillness from the evils of commerce. With little time to lose, Crichton, Stark, and Rygel set about locating the source of the signal attracting the storm. Meanwhile, D'Argo is confronted with the ultimate betrayal by those closest to him, and becomes depressed and self-destructive. Intoxicated, he bids Pilot goodbye and heads out on the potentially suicidal mission of releasing Moya before the storm hits.

46 mins
While Crichton inspects a wormhole, a small ship screams out of the hole and collides with Moya. When the two crews recover, they find that the two ships have fused together in a freakish amalgam, and Crichton wakes up face to face with two aliens armed with needle-shooting gills. However, there is little time to exchange pleasantries. The fused ships are trapped in a series of wormholes, looping repeatedly and Moya seems to be reacting badly to the collision, her systems dying section by section. It is discovered that to separate the ships, one of them must be cast into the wormhole wall and destroyed. The intruders insist that because Moya is on death's door, it is THEIR ship that must be saved, with both crews on board.

Faced with the imminent death of both Pilot and Moya, who will be cast into the wall of the imprisoning wormhole, the inhabitants of the living ship prepare to disembark and take their chances with Neeyala's vessel. That is, until a critical discovery is made. Moya's disintegration is not a result of the collision between the two ships, but sabotage. As time runs out, and the yawning wormhole beckons, a moment of truth is reached. One crew member will sacrifice their life so that the others may live.

The crew of Moya stop at the ancient site of a great siege, where Peacekeeper forces once negotiated surrender to a vastly superior army.

Materialising in the midst of the ancient siege, they accidentally change the course of events. Now as time grows short, they must discover how to set right what once went wrong - before they become history, too.

Incubator

In order to get the final piece of wormhole technology that continues to elude him, Scorpius places Crichton's neural chip directly into this brain. This sets up a little tête-à-tête between Scorpius' mental projection and yet another Crichton, a neural clone. Scorpy wants to convince the John-clone into decoding the hidden wormhole equations placed in his brain by the Ancients. And he hopes to do that by appealing to John's bleeding heart, by showing him the most intimate details about his early life.

Scratch 'n Sniff
46 mins
Crichton tells the story of the crew's shore leave to a pleasure planet via flashback to a very unreceptive Pilot. It seems D'Argo, John, Jool and Chiana had themselves a little too much drink, drugs and fun, and ended up getting into a lot of trouble. The pleasure planet is currently home to a charismatic drug dealer and outer space pimp whose substance of choice is pheromones - extracted out of the victim's body, until they die. This drug is a big commodity, and luckily for the drug dealer, Moya's got two such candidates: Jool and Chiana. They get kidnapped, drugged, milked and put up for auction - and it's up to the boys to save these women in jeopardy.

Infinite Possibilities: Part 1 - Daedalus Demands
46 mins
The Ancients, in the form of John's father Jack, come to Talyn, informing John that the wormhole data he collected previously is now in the wrong hands. That's courtesy of grubby entrepreneur mechanic Furlow who's built her own module and stabilizer and has hired bad people Charrids, an old enemy of the Hynerians, to pilot. But they've double-crossed her and are now attacking her compound. But the Scarrans are also on their way on a dreadnought - and they've also managed to download enough wormhole data from Furlow's computer. This forces the good guys to convert the stabilizer into a powerful weapon meant to destroy the Scarrans. But that means extracting the secret wormhole technology implanted by the Ancients. Except, of course, Scorpius got there first a long time ago, and his not-so-dormant neural clone "Harvey" is not going to go quietly.

With the Ancient's help, John finally rids his mind of the Scorpy clone.

Meanwhile, trouble is brewing with the paranoid Talyn who fires on a hospital ship, killing 600 innocent beings.
