Sara wants to rush off to get EMLY, but Lotti coordinates everyone to help search for the missing MIMIC. Carrisford happens to know the ins and outs of the city, as he grew up on Gall and his brother Brad is the chief manager of the satellite. Carrisford catches up to Sara and while the search continues, he uses the time to work some serious game on the vulnerable Sara. Emily happens upon the two, and they all have fun around the city. Eventually Emily reveals that she and EMLY are the same person, and she thanks Sara for being so kind. Emily then leads Sara to where EMLY is waiting.

Unfortunately, S-35 where EMLY is where an unknown vessel has been spotted. Jessi is put in charge of the squadron and Lotti and Lavinia go to Sara. Wouldn’t you know it, some Tumors are spotted, and where there are Tumors, Ralph can’t be far behind. Ralph grabs Emily and blasts off, taking a moment out of his busy day to kill Carrisford on his way out. Meanwhile, Lotti is seriously pissed to find out that Sara is Ralph’s sister, and Melchisedec and Carmichael are surprised to learn the news as well.

I guess this episode was supposed to be surprising, but was anyone really surprised to see Carrisford bite the big one? I’m just surprised he didn’t die at the beginning of the next episode. His death pretty much mirrored Sedi’s and I doubt Sara is going to take it very well.

It was nice to learn some more about Emily/EMLY, and the search for EMLY was pretty amusing. I especially liked the scene where Dickon is at the doll store looking up the skirt of the doll while several horrified women look on. Other interesting moments include seeing how sub-lighspeed travel keeps you young and how Lotti now has a gun pointed at Sara’s face.
