‘A Clockwork Nebari’ is the ultimate Chiana episode, it brings her character in spotlight so perfectly.



The episode begins with Chiana being upset because she send Aeryn and Rygel to some place and they got captured and now she thinks that they are upset. When they come onboard they are smiling and behaving very well, a woman is with them and she wants to bring Chiana with her and they knock out Crichton and Chiana.



After they also clean Zhaan, they go for D’Argo. But Pilot cannot be and they put some belt around his neck that if he makes a mistake he’ll die.



Crichton tries to get Chiana’s secret and she tells about her culture that they ‘infect’ people like Chiana and let them escape but when they mix with other cultures they capture them. Then she discover that her brother is still alive even though she thought he was dead.



Crichton then is put on the chair but it doesn’t work on him because of Scorpy in his mind. Crichton also discovers that Rygel isn’t hurt by it either and that the guy who is with the woman actually works with Chiana’s brother and he shows her a tape were the brother talks but says that Chiana cannot see him again.



Pilot has to starburst but if he does, he’ll die so they try to convince the woman by faking some images. Zhaan and D’Argo find about Crichton and Rygel but then get electrocuted and knocked out.



When the B!tch tries to murder Chiana because she doesn’t want her to live after finding out that they are plotting behind them, the guy shoots her and kills her and then leaves, leaving Chiana behind.



The episode was fantastic, so well written and acted. I only disliked how much they underused Zhaan, again an the fact that Stark is dead. But motherless, it was great to see Chiana and Crichton working together, they make a great team.
