The Choice - 317
« on: June 03, 2011, 06:51:55 PM »



 :brokenheart:  ''Was it easy to be a hero?  Leave me behind?''   :brokenheart:

Aeryn is mourning the loss of John and after Stark tells her of a planet where there are psychics and spirit channelers, she heads down to Valldon in an attempt to contact John. However there are others waiting for her on the dreary planet.

Stark, Crais and Rygel head down to the planet to rescue Aeryn but come across her mother instead, who apparently is not dead after all. 

Xhalax is on a personal vengeance quest to rid the world of the child that she blames for all that has gone wrong in her life. She sends of man pretending to be Aeryn’s father to help find John’s spirit and plans to kill ‘’Talyn’’ in front of his daughter. However Aeryn makes peace with her mother just as Crais kills her for real.

Stark decides to move on after hearing Zhaan’s voice on Valldon, but he leaves his mask behind with instructions for it to be delivered to John.

Throughout the episode Aeryn relives her life with John but in the end the pain is too much and she makes a choice to move on and return to the warrior she was born to be, free of emotional attachments and the heartache they bring.

One of my least favorite episodes.  I only watch it in rewatches.  I have very little sympathy for Aeryn.  Too little too late if you ask me.  And going back to PK mode?   What a terrible way to honor John.

I know that I am probably the only one who doesn't have any sympathy for her but I don't.

Nette, you did a beautiful job with the recap.  It's tough episode to watch Aeryn grieve in her own way (no comments Sybil ;)).  I love the reversal in reference to scenes taken from AHR.

That shot of John just standing there in the crowd and Aeryn just walking past him lets us know they are going to go straight for the heartstrings.
