Farscape: Strange Detractors #2

This Farscape series continues to feel very much like an episode of the show - not a terribly consequential one, but one of the fun ones that focus a lot on character.

The pace is quick and the writing witty (except I still kind of hate Crichton). The strange disease that has infected the crew is making everyone angry, and minor annoyances are spiraling out of control into huge, often violent, conflicts.

What is strange is that the disease has somehow spread to Hyneria and Rygel's palace, which doesn't make a lot of sense, and seems to add an unnecessary element to the plot, but I suppose it remains to be seen where it will lead.
