This episode contains two separate plots; the main one takes place aboard Moya and concerns an energy creature that boarded as they passed through an electromagnetic cluster and the second takes place aboard Scorpius' command carrier where he is continuing to study worm holes.
When Moya passes through the cluster Crichton sees something strange, it flies into him and he floats above the deck, bleeding. Nobody else, including pilot has sensed anything wrong. Gradually the others start to notice other strange things; nothing major in themselves but perhaps a sign that something is going on. They all sit together while one of the DRDs records the scene and when they watch the recording they notice something very strange; they appear to have passed out for a while then become hyper-animated! They go to see Pilot and learn that he has been possessed by a creature that claims to be searching for a second creature that is hiding in one of the crew. They will have to find out which one it is and try to get it out without harming anybody.
From his command carrier Scorpius is investigating a wormhole; probes suggest it is safe for a Sebacean but he is hesitant at first. When a prowler finally enters it is proved to be far from safe as its pilot is liquefied!
This was a decent episode containing two good stories even if the second one took up comparatively little of the run time. Both contained shocking scenes although nothing too disturbing. The cast do a good job; especially Gigi Edgely who managed to be delightfully creepy as the possessed Chiana! This being Farscape there are some laughs to be had; fans of the original Star Trek will love how Crichton dubs one of the DRDs 'Pike' because he uses its blinking to communicate with Moya. Interestingly, once again, we don't see the full crew as Aeryn, Rygel, Stark and the other Crichton are still away on Talyn and there is still no indication when the crew will be reunited.
