Line #25 NightmareFuel/Farscape


1	'''As a Moments subpage, all spoilers are unmarked [[Administrivia/SpoilersOff as per policy.]] Administrivia/YouHaveBeenWarned.'''
2
3	* Natira's [[EyeScream penchant for plucking out people's eyes]].
4	-->First red. Now blue. Scorpius wants your brain. He said nothing about your eyes. Mmm, blue eyes. So soft. Very rare.
5	* Zhaan's [[NightmareSequence nightmare]] in "Dream A Little Dream", in which Aeryn is killed when her Prowler is destroyed, and Crichton's space visor cracks [[ExplosiveDecompression and his head starts to pop...]]
6	* The temporary Nebari Mind-Cleansing procedure in "A Clockwork Nebari". One of the best (worst?) examples of EyeScream ''ever''.
7	--> '''Rygel:''' I don't want my eyes sucked out!
8	* The scene in "That Old Black Magic" when Maldis, in order to get Crais fired up against Crichton again, conjures up a vision of Crais' late brother, Tauvo, before re-enacting his death. As in, he shows Tauvo exploding into flame and his flesh melting, in ''graphic'' detail.
9	* For such a [[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments hilarious episode]], "Crackers Don't Matter" can get downright ''[[MoodWhiplash disturbing]]'' as the crew get more and more unhinged. John's AttemptedRape of Chiana would be unspeakably creepy if it were a villain doing it, let alone the NominalHero.
10	* Pilot absolutely ''losing it'' in "The Way We Weren't" after finding out that Aeryn was the one that murdered Moya's first Pilot. Seeing the normally highly-articulate Pilot snarling like a rabid dog as he lifts Aeryn off the ground by the neck with one hand is bone-chilling.
11	* The fate of Aeryn's [[WeUsedToBeFriends former friend]], Henta, in "Into the Lion's Den Part 2: Wolf in Sheep's Clothing". She confronts Aeryn as the Command Carrier explodes around them, intending to kill her. Before she can, she is burned alive in a sudden explosion... and is alive long enough to actually reach out to Aeryn, even after all the skin has been seared from her body. [[CruelAndUnusualDeath Ouch]].
12	* Towards the end of "Nerve", Chiana is confronted at gunpoint by Commander Javio. [[CombatPragmatist How does she get out of the situation]]? [[KillItWithFire Burn him alive]]! Following this there are a couple of [[GrossUpCloseUp lovely close-ups of his charred corpse]], mouth open in a silent scream... it's safe to say ''Farscape'' seems to like depicting people burning alive.
13	* "Eat Me" has [[http://www.imdb.com/media/rm2663225856/tt0187636 Kaarvok]], a [[IAmAHumanitarian cannibalistic]] mad scientist, who clones people solely for consumption. Best summed up by these two lines:
14	-->"They cut your arms... and when they grow back, they hack 'em off again? Why the hell would they do that?"
15	-->"Because, because, because THEY'RE ''EATING'' MEEEEEEE!"
16	* Moya being infested by a mass of creepers, and Pilot waking up to realize that they've wormed their way up ''through'' his body and out of his mouth.
17	* The failed Pilot/Sebacean hybrid that [=NamTar=] has chained to the wall of his lab, [[AFateWorseThanDeath still alive and still screaming]].
18	** Aeryn slowly mutating into a Pilot over the course of that episode.
19	** [=NamTar=] and his crippled assistant.
20	* Diseased Plokavian judges melting all over the place while sentencing Moya's crew to death.
21	* Captain Jenek frying a test subject's unborn child alive with Heat Projection. The whole thing is revealed to be faked at the end of the episode, but the scene is still deeply disturbing.
22	* [[https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/farscape/images/1/10/Scorpius-12_cycles.png Scorpius as a child.]] There is a very good reason why we never see under his suit as an adult.
23	** Scorpius' "nanny" getting a broken coolant rod [[EyeScream through her eyeballs]] and [[KarmicDeath dying horribly as Scorpius lowers the temperature of the cell until she freezes to death, alone and blind]].
24	** Speaking of Scorpius, his whole backstory was no picnic either. He was the product of a Scarran breeding program to create super-soldiers by breeding them with other species. Scorpius' mother was a Sebacean female who was captured and saw her husband murdered in front of her by a Scarran soldier, who [[RapeAsDrama forcibly impregnated her with a child]], the process of which was recorded and Scorpius would later be ForcedToWatch. According to his nanny, [[AFateWorseThanDeath the gestation was unbearable and it completely destroyed her mind, making her plead for death]], [[DeathByChildbirth which only came during childbirth]]. To make matters worse, she was the only subject among 90 others in the experiment in which the child survived, meaning there were many other victims that were unaccounted for.
25	* "Won't Get Fooled Again":
26	** Crichton's mother begging him to stay with her is bad enough, but then she starts appearing in the last stages of her cancer.
27	** Late in the episode, DK starts bleeding from every orifice, all the while blaming Crichton.
28	** The ending, where, after Crichton resolves to get the neural chip out of him ASAP, Harvey alters John's memories to remove his knowledge of Harvey's existence. The episode's last lines say it all:
29	-->'''Harvey:''' I won't trouble you again, until I need to... I leave you to your shipmates John. But rest assured, [[ParanoiaFuel I'll be with you always. Keeping you safe.]]
30	* ''Scratch 'n' Sniff'', features villain of the week Fe'Tor, who sells a powerful aphrodisiac named freslin, which is made primarily from the pheromones and secretions of sentient beings. To this end, he kidnaps young women, including Chiana and Jool, and milks them. After milking Chiana, he attempts to sell her to the highest bidder, and attempts to [[CruelAndUnusualDeath milk Jool to death]]. "Disturbing" is putting it mildly.
31	** Towards the end of the episode, Chiana again demonstrates that she can be downright scary when you piss her off - she kills Fe'Tor by [[KarmicDeath pouring the freslin all over him and force-feeding some of it to him, fatally overloading his senses]]. Just before walking away, Chiana only expresses regret that the scumbag is going to die happy.
32	* The scene in "Home on the Remains" where Chiana defeats the episode's villain by shooting a pustule on the wall of the giant alien corpse they're inside, spraying his hand with HollywoodAcid. We are treated to a ''horrific'' close-up of the skin sloughing off his hand and melting down to the bone in a bloody mess. This scene alone resulted in the episode being the only one to be rated 18 in the UK.
33	* When Criton finally uses the wormhole weapon, demonstrating what they are and what they do. It simply creates a black hole. An ever-expanding black hole that constantly doubles in size, density, and gravitational pull. Based on how it is described, it has no upper limit to how big it will get, and could conceivably grow large enough to encompass the entire galaxy, if not the entire universe, if not stopped. This was the genie that everyone else was wanting to let out of the bottle, and had anyone gotten ahold of it, they'd have likely used it without fully understanding the consequences.
