Crais probably has my favorite arc on the show, but Scorpius is a great villain, and I absolutely love that his 'redemption' involves nothing about his goals or ethics changing, just his circumstances.

I watched the first hour of Star Trek: The Motion Picture on the way home from work today for some reason. The Enterprise has almost started on its way. (That is barely an exaggeration.)

Crais's arc is good, no doubt. I love the ambiguity about Scorpius, though. He's clearly a ruthless antagonist when we first meet him and while he gets a lot more understandable as things go you never fully know if his motivations are real or just another layer of deception and intrigue. I mean just think of that last scene in Peacekeeper War when Graiza and the Emperor finally sign the armistice or whatever and he's standing there, smirking.

Scorpius is an almost unique combination of someone who is incredibly subtle and deceitful and someone who has a very clear, very simple goal that informs absolutely everything he does over the course of the series. He's such a well-realized character.

I also love that he (a) believes that John likes him, really and (b) that everyone would just naturally be on his side if they only understood how bad Scarrans are.

The two-parter at the end of Season 3 is so masterful in so many ways. It's really a shame that Season 4 disappeared up itself so badly (though I really, really like the finale).

what you should know:
  • john crichton is the only human. other characters who look human, arent
  • every main character is a criminal
  • the peacekeepers are authoritarian racists. aeryn and crais used to be part of them
  • moya is a huge ship. she is alive. her species has no space weapons. talyn is her son
  • talyn was created thru peacekeeper experiments to make a living spaceship that had guns. hes mentally unstable. hes formed a relationship w crais
  • crais is unstable
  • space science made two john crichtons by accident. one went on talyn. one went on moya. they were absolutely identical when they were created. the john on talyn had a relationship w aeryn. he died, doing hero poo poo
  • scorpius is half peacekeeper, half scarran. he thinks the scarrans are terrible. the scarrans and peacekeepers are at war
  • scorpius put a copy of himself in johns brain. it appears as an hallucination. it can help john, and it can serve scorpius. john calls it harvey
  • super smart aliens dumped everything they know about wormholes into johns brain. he hasnt been able to use it all consciously yet. scorpius knows its there and wants it to use against the scarrans

The Peacekeepers and Scarrans are in a cold war of sorts, until the events of the opening sequence of the Peacekeeper Wars series concluder, when Scorpius launches a preemptive attack on a Scarran convoy, ushering in what High Command calls, "the last war of our era!" :eng101:
