Drive Back the Night

Episode 44 - Tunnel At the End Of the Light

 Two long years have passed since Dylan Hunt emerged from the long night into the light of a universe that had passed him by. Re-establishing the New Systems Commonwealth has been an immense task and many a roadblock has been set in his way. But now the signing of 50 worlds in a Commonwealth charter his about to take place on the Andromeda Ascendant, what could possibly go wrong at this point? Much it seems. A darkness emerges and brings with it a fight, Dylan and crew must travel the Tunnel At the End Of the Light.

Episode 43 - Immaculate Perception

Around and around and around Tyr goes. Where he'll stop, nobody knows. He berates the crew and tells them "get busy!" No one is for certain why he is all in a tizzy. Harper takes the Maru and flys around for awhile, as Tyr drops in on a friend, with style. A few months ago Tyr forgot contraception, what consequence we'll see in "Immaculate Perception."

Episode 42 - The Knight Death and the Devil

 There comes a time in every ships life when it feels the need to settle down, put down roots, make a home with good friends and something worthwhile to do. The Clarion's Call and its avatar "Ryan" felt that way and turned itself into a casino. But then Dylan Hunt showed up and ruined it all. What happened to that casino in the sky? We may never know. But Ryan get's to set off on a most excellent adventure with Dylan and his proverbial white horse. What adventure awaits them? What lessons have we learned and so quickly forgotten? No one says "Ni" and there might not be a Bridge of Death, but we have a devil of a time discussing The Knight, Death and the Devil

Episode 41-Belly of the Beast

Like any primitive culture, the Savions, have legendary, mythological stories of giant beasts that roam the stars eating planets. Fortunately, the Andromeda was able to catch their HAM radio signal forecasting the end of their world just in time to let them know that everything they believe in is not real and everything will be fine.  That is, until it swallows the Andromeda whole. How will they get out of this one?  The safe bet would probably be exploding AP tanks and ejecting slip stream cores... but let's find out as we digest this episode deep inside the "Belly of the Beast."

Episode 40-The Fair Unknown

What's blue, has four legs and can make planets disappear? I'll show you. That thing right there... oh, now it's over there... did you see it?  Well, it's gone now. Anyway, it was a Vedran. No, really, they're real! And we actually get to meet one this week in "The Fair Unknown."

Episode 39-The Things We Cannot Change

This week we discuss, "The Things We Cannot Change."  It's a clip show.
I could have put more effort into it this week, but they didn't.  It's a clip show.
And now, "The Things We Cannot Change."
It's a clip show.

Episode 38-In Heaven Now Are Three

This week we get off the ship for an exciting adventure.  But Tyr doesn't go because if he does he'll die, while Harper and Rommie stay behind for some other reasons that aren't important.
Dylan, Beka and Trance go looking for an engine of something, but instead find a trio of hooligans, one of which might be Trance's brother, and a spinny wheel sword decapitator thing.  They also find the Engine.
Some might call it, "Indiana Jones in Space."  We call it, "In Heaven Now Are Three."

Episode 37-Dance of the Mayflies

One thing the Than hate is dead people walking around and they will stop at nothing to exterminate the un-dead even if it means destroying their friends on the Andromeda.  At least we think that's what's going on. They never actually bothered to let us in on what they're up to.  What do Mayflies and Zombies have in common?  Nothing really. And they're not really zombies anyway. It's a super alien race taking over human bodies and operating in a zombie like state. They're not much fun at parties and they don't like to boogie, but the living and reanimated corpses alike love to cut a rug in the "Dance of the Mayflies."

Episode 36-Be All My Sins Remembered

So it turns out Beka once dated RoboCop. But that was a long time ago, and he's dead now. ... Or is he??? No, he's not dead.  And he's not really RoboCop either.  Beka  tells us a great story about her long lost love, Bobby Jensen. In person he doesn't seem so dreamy. In fact, he's really kind of a jerk. The moral of the story: When you're wearing a metal suit, stay away from live wires.Harper envies Bobby's data port in, "Be All My Sins Remembered."

Episode 35-Lava and Rockets

Meet Dylan; He's a worry free bachelor just looking for a way off this drift.Meet Molly; She's finally fulfilling her lifelong dream of being a cruise ship pilot. Neither of them are looking for love. But Rommie is looking for Dylan, and if he's dead she's going to kill Tyr. Also, we have new bad guys! Everybody needs someone to lava..... It's "Lava and Rockets."
