The Internet - where men are men, women are men, and teenage girls are FBI agents!

I'm the least you could do, oh yeah

I would still get screwed
What is the deal with him? In an episode I saw a few weeks ago he was a "good" guy. And what is all the spitting about? He most probably need a barrel of water every day.
He got ****ed over by some chick in the Peacekeeper hierarchy.
I missed a lot, so there's a lot I'm iffy on. The Peacekeeper hierarchy is one of those things. *shrug*
Crais is a "good guy" now, too.

It's debatable on what his true motivations are, but he has a sort of obsession with John Crichton(sp?). Scorpius wants to protect the Peacekeepers from their enemies, pronounced (scare uns). The enemy is vastly more powerful and will eventually in all likelyhood defeat the so called "Peace Keepers". Scorpius hopes the wormhole technology will at least keep their enemies at bay. He did try to take it from John at one point through torture and cloning with limited success. He sees John as the best chance for the Peace Keepers to survive, thus the reluctant alliance.
Oh and by the way the BBC actually have a pretty good <a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/cult/farscape/">Farscape site</a> with epsiode guides explaining a lot of things. I was hooked on Farscape from Episode 1, wacky yes but not quite Lexx wacky, best scifi in a long time but probably one you have to watch every episode to keep on top of. The last episode, La Bomba, cleared up quite a few things I felt.
Farscape can be a bit wacky, not because of the premise but because you have all these nutbags... the rejects of the universe really... holed up on a big ol' prison transport ship converted into their personal galaxy tour... it has moments of real seriousness, and moments of real silliness.
I could see someone coming in on a kind of silly episode, getting 3 episodes in, and not liking it. You really have to start from the beginning...
Err, and try to ignore Rigel. He's only in there because you can't have a Henson project without a muppet.
