Farscape/Recap/S01/E04 Throne for A Loss: Difference between revisions

On the planet, Aeryn has a turn with the gauntlet and suffers similar effects just before D'Argo- who followed them down after recovering- knocks her out. Eventually, they find the camp where Rygel is being held, only to discover that Bekhesh is moving Rygel to a more secure location; worse still, D'Argo gets wounded in their attempt to leave. Aeryn has to stay behind [[Bizarre Alien Biology|to "pump" D'Argo's wound until the blood runs clear (not doing so will poison him)]], meaning Crichton has to go on alone after Bekhesh -- with the gauntlet. Thankfully, he manages to catch up with Bekhesh and defeat most of his bodyguards, but the gauntlet's juice runs out barely seconds into the fight with Bekhesh himself. Crichton eventually manages to convince the Tavleks that Rygel is worth absolutely nothing- not even to the Consortium of Trao- proving this by allowing Kyr to speak to them via the comms and confirm the crew's poverty.
