so close.. (to being great)

Warning: Spoilers
it's a huge pity as both threads were very, very good - both in terms of writing and the execution. if it wasn't for that moronic idea of a slow-running bomb it could have easily been 9 stars episode.. >sigh<

I personally almost forgot about Mayor Niles, but still it was nice to see further part of his history. it was good enough to make it two or three episode arc.

Stahma/T'evgin part was also quite ehm.. interesting, despite being a bit too predictable.

all in all - why some creators think that making huge bomb will make an episode (or a movie) better? this tool has been used so many times and in this case it botched one of potentially best episodes of entire series (so far).

Can't win for losing...

The Defiance series has been... entertaining so far; not exciting, not thrilling, but predictable in an unknown way. Not five minutes of things going well go by when the next catastrophe shows up; we know it's coming, we just don't know in what shape or form.

Predictable: Datak and Stahma not only get away with murder, but even the best tracker cannot see through them, I mean, is Stahma's hypocritical, conniving smile only for the idiot audience and not the other characters?--they even serve them, almost cater to them. Amanda is an idiot with courage, and the town suffers endlessly. Do all aliens look like humans, except for the Volge?

In the previous episode, Pilar walked to the Voltan camp faster than it took Nolan to drive there. HUH??

In this episode we can witness (2:10) some of the worst computer graphics since Duke Nukem or Space Invaders. How much worse is it going to get?
