Episode Notes
Claudia Black suggested that Aeryn use the line about "Yoda from Dagobah," since she felt that Aeryn had picked up enough of Crichton's Earth references to be able to throw one back at him.
The scene in which D'Argo and Chiana look for the invisible Pathfinder was all achieved live on set with a clever use of dry ice and laser beams.
Both Virginia Hey and Gigi Edgley found it difficult to shoot the scene where their charatcers say goodbye to each other, and their make up had to be redone because of their genuine tears.
Composer Guy Gross used his score to punctuate the different elements in Zhaan's farewell speech, allowing it to reflect her religious beliefs and her inner peace.
The plans fo Zhaan's demise changed considerably. Originally, the idea was that Zhaan would be planted in the soil of a suitable planet with healing properties, and the crew would return to find her a few episodes later.
If you play the scene showing Zhaan's death very carefully, you should be able to see her spirit leaving the ship during the explosion.
The production team only to clearance to use the clip of The Three Stooges on the morning that the scene between Crichton and Harvey at the drive-in was filmed.
The Three Stooges film that Crichton and the Scorpius clone are watching at the end of the episode is Disorder in the Court, first released in May 1936.
