Finally we get to see Avon for the first time.
The number of seats in the main prisoner area seems to be about as large as the number of cots in the holding cell on Earth, but Avon wasn't there in TWB.
The criminals on this ship are all pasty faced middle aged guys none of
whom
look like a menace to society!
That's technology for you--you don't have to menace up close and personal.
And on the subject of money, what is a credit worth? Raiker says the Liberator is worth millions. Avon's 5 million fraud is supposed
to
be unbelieveable wealth.
I think it's a quid, giving us a touching look into the bank balance of the average TV writer.
Time zooms by in this episode because Blake tells Avon he has had four months to think about his plan to fake the running log
And Jenna's eyeliner has four months not to wear off. That's one technology they have down pat.
Without Raiker sending them across they would never have got the
Liberator -
it was his idea to use them. A bit lucky, eh?
It just shows how much better Blake's luck is than Avon's--they each get a gift ship, but Blake's is Liberator and Avon's is Scorpio. For that matter, that there happened to BE a pilot ready to help Blake.
