A Bug's Life
Story by Doug Heyes
Teleplay by Steven Rae
Directed by Rowan Woods


PLOT
A small Peacekeeper ship, leaking fuel, is trying to rendezvous with Moya. Nearing the birth of her child, Moya is not capable of leaping to starburst and escape � so the crew have no choice but to let it land.

Aeryn and Crichton pose as Peacekeeper lieutenant and captain of Moya respectively and bluff their way into an alliance with the small ship's four soldiers under the command of Larraq. It's a delicate bluff that requires D'Argo, Zhaan and Rygel to pose as prisoners � with only Zhaan able to see the necessity.

While D'Argo rattles his chains, Rygel escapes and goes to investigate what the visiting Peacekeepers are carrying. They've brought aboard something so dangerous and secret that it needs an extremely secure case which Moya must now fly to a secret Peacekeeper base nearby.

That news scares Crichton and Aeryn � they're deep in the Uncharted Territories and it's the Peacekeepers who haven't done the charting. Their once-safe region might not be as good a place to stay as they thought.

But while Crichton and Aeryn try to keep up their cover yet learn more from Larraq and his team, Rygel and Chiana have managed to open the case.
