[x] Remove Ad
Travis devises a trap to both kill Blake and his crew, and capture the Liberator. The key lies with a high value resistance leader who wants Blake’s help in order to be relocated, and the Federation’s newest virulent strain of a genetically engineered virus.
Can Blake and his crew thwart Travis’ evil plan, or will the Liberator fall into the Federation’s hands? Will Avon see Blake’s actions as the final straw, and pursue his own course? | Summary Available In: English | Dutch |

Episode Quotes |
| |
(Blake and Avon are discussing planetary conditions)
Blake: Does it support intelligent life?
Avon: Does the Liberator? | Avon: (referring to Avalon) Another idealist, poor but honest. I shall look forward to our meeting with anticipation. | Vila: I've got a weak chest.
Avon: The rest of you's not very impressive. | Vila: I'm tired of being indispensable. | Servalan: (referring to Blake) Stories of his exploits are still circulating. They excite people. The fact that he is still free gives them hope and that is dangerous, Travis. Hope is very dangerous.
Travis: The loss of it can be fatal and the source of it all is about to be wiped out. | Vila: You'd need a lot of explosives, or a genius, to open it.
Blake: Can you do it?
Vila: Of course.
Blake: Alright, we'll applaud you later. Just get on with it. | Avon: What went wrong?
Blake: I was about to ask you that! |

Avon: Does the Liberator?
Clearly Avon’s attempt to imply he strongly disagrees with the course of actions the crew has been called on to do so far, in the earlier episodes. |
