* ArmorPiercingQuestion: With Aeryn in poor health, Crichton wants to risk it all to try to save her. The others point out the obvious problems of trying to infiltrate a Peacekeeper base, but he shuts them up with this.
-->'''Crichton:''' So, what are we saying here? We do nothing? We let Aeryn die? Is everybody happy with that?



* FriendshipMoment: D'Argo keeps Rygel from pestering Aeryn (claiming his vaunted leadership may be needed on command) just so that she can rest in peace. He also works to find a way to prolong her time and stays by her side during the recovery.



--->'''Chiana:''' But I thought the Commander was meant to be the last one to evacuate.\\

Added DiffLines:

* GreaterNeedThanMine: Crichton urges Chiana and Gilina to focus on getting the sample to Aeryn rather than try (and likely fail) to bust him out of the cell.


Added DiffLines:

* HeroicVow: After Aeryn gets the sample, she starts to recover and asks where Crichton is. The others prefer not to tell her about Crichton being captured, so D'Argo has a low key example of this.
-->'''Aeryn:''' Where is he? I want to see him.\\
'''D'Argo:''' You will.


Added DiffLines:

* JerkassHasAPoint: Rygel is blunt about how Crichton barely managed to fool four exhausted commandos, saying an entire research base full of enemy operatives will be far harder to trick. Though clearly most concerned with himself, he is also right that Crichton getting caught puts everyone at risk.


Added DiffLines:

* RaceAgainstTheClock: Aeryn believes she has roughly 50-60 arns before she dies of her injury. D'Argo and Zhaan have to resort to unorthodox methods to prolong Aeryn's time.


Added DiffLines:

* TortureIsIneffective: Zig zagged. The Aurora Chair is quite good at obtaining information, but Scorpius fears that pushing a specific case like Crichton too hard will result in death and thus the loss of the wormhole knowledge. As he says, it's a troubling stalemate.
* VictoriousLoser: In all the confusion, Chiana manages to escape in the Prowler with the needed sample. Upon Scorpius realizing everything was a diversion so that the Prowler could take off, the captive Crichton openly laughs at him. Scorpius ensures his mirth doesn't last long, though.

* CallBack: A whole ContinuityCavalcade as the Aurora Chair rips the memories of Crichton's past adventures from his mind, but the most important one is a scene we haven't seen before that took place during the events of "A Human Reaction".

* LoveMartyr: Gilina risks being executed for treason for helping Crichton (and the risk of being caught is a lot greater than the last time she helped him) even though she becomes aware that Crichton is doing all this out of love for Aeryn, not her.



* MistakenForSpies: Entirely justified given that Crichton is an alien disguised as a Peacekeeper officer, captured inside a top-secret base where weapons research is being conducted.

Added DiffLines:
