Chiana has reached the child, and tries to figure out her course of action.
The firefight continues. Crichton turns Stark's question around, and the answer is the memory of a place he saw when he was a boy. Crichton: "Must have been one hell of a place." I'd imagine, yes. D'Argo tosses a charge the Peacekeepers' way, which detonates to their disadvantage.
Chiana reports that she's unable to make the cut. Pilot tells her that Moya is trying to control the child, but his weapon is primed to fire. Chiana has an idea -- let the weapon fire on a low blast level. Pilot's unsure, but Chiana says it's the only way, as if they don't get the kid out, he'll destroy Moya's bulkhead.
Zhaan, D'Argo, and Aeryn make it to a position of relative safety. Crichton sticks an explosive on a support beam, and he and Stark move before the charge explodes.
Chiana's trying to get to safety before the weapon fires. She makes it back into one of Moya's corridors just in time to avoid getting her ass burned off. She muses, "That was a low-level blast?" Heh. Pilot reports success -- the child is free, and Moya is okay. For someone who just gave birth to the Death Star, that is.
Crichton, last of his party, backs right into Scorpius. However, Gilina appears and points a pulse rifle at him. Crichton gloatingly smiles and tells Gilina to shoot him, but she hesitates, and Scorpius plugs her right in the gut. Crichton knocks Scorpius away, but misses a very clear shot at him, so he escapes. Crichton picks up Gilina as D'Argo and Stark return to them, and the group makes its escape. Later, Scorpius slowly walks through the wreckage. His expression is inscrutable, but that could be all the makeup.
