In a series that has characters, moments and stories I love, …Different Destinations may be one of my favorites. First airing on 13 April, 2001 it was written by Steve Worland.

While Moya is doing some cleaning that requires some downtime, Aeryn (Claudia Black), Crichton (Ben Browder), D’Argo (Anthony Simcoe), Stark (Paul Goddard) and Jool (Tammy Macintosh) visit a monastery on a nearby planet.

It stands as a tribute to a battle that occurred 500 years earlier, which is viewable by portable devices that allow visitors to see the events unfold. When Stark is upset by what he sees, he somehow triggers a tear in space-time, and the small group find them thrown back in time, in the midst of the battle.

They know how things have to play out. Crichton insists that they can’t mess up the timeline. But anything and everything they do just makes events worse.

The monastery has a couple of Peacekeeper, nurses and children. They are under assault by The Horde who are worked up in a bloodlust. Crichton knows that the leader of the Horde is ready to offer a peaceful settlement, Aeryn is stunned to learn the truth about a hero of Peacekeeper legend, and no matter how hard they want to maintain the timeline things are getting frelled way too quickly.

But maybe they can fix it? With their track record?

I love a good time travel story, and this is definitely that. And on top of that it has a kick-in-the-balls ending that is completely devastating for everyone. So good.

Eat Me was written by Matt Ford and first aired on 20 April, 2001.

While Moya, Aeryn, Stark and Rygel (Jonathan Hardy) discover a badly beaten Talyn and a barely alive Crais (Lani John Tupu), Crichton, Jool, D’Argo and Chiana (Gigi Edgely) find themselves in a horror movie.

Flying a transport pod, the quartet are on their way back to Moya when they come across another leviathan, with a control collar. That should mean Peacekeepers. But when they are forced to land aboard her for repairs, they discover a true nightmare.

The feral inhabitants are hungry and will eat anything, including the living ship that is the leviathan, or the arms of the Pilot (Sean Masterson) which will regrow only to be harvested for food again and again.

As the horror builds up, and doubles down – D’Argo is killed! – Crichton learns that the ship was a prison transport for the criminally insane, and it had only one passenger, Kaarvok (Shane Briant). The rest of the things aboard? They were Peacekeepers!

Then, when Kaarvok captures Chiana, he clones, or twins her, and one of them is immediately killed for food. But that may mean D’Argo is still alive. Can Crichton convince the half-crazed and completely traumatized Pilot to help them? Will they be able to get off the Leviathan alive?

Through it all Jool stands guard at the transport pod, slowly being overwhelmed by fear.

And who can blame her? It’s an intense and terrifying episode. And comes with a kicker at the end as our heroes clamber aboard the transport pod… Apparently Crichton was twinned as well, and now there are two of them heading back to Moya with the rest of the gang.

This is a fantastic episode, and is truly horrifying. And with the addition of another Crichton, you know things are going to get more complicated for everyone.
