Episode 34 1/2 - Ouroboros Part 2, The Coda

It's our discussion of the Conclusion of the Andromeda series. At least, one possible conclusion according to Trance... and Robert Hewitt Wolfe.  If you thought there wasn't enough going on in the episode Ouroboros then check this out. While Trance is trying to decide whether to save Harper or let his guts be ripped apart by baby Magog she has time to star in a one act play, with co-star Seamus Harper, none the less.  It's Robert Hewitt Wolfe's alternate ending, "The Coda." _____________________________________________________Read "The Coda" in it's entirety here: https://mcdn.podbean.com/mf/web/u7b7cu/Andromeda_-_Coda_cleanbpcga.pdf_____________________________________________________
