10. What happens in "Till the Blood Runs Clear"?
11. The episode opens with the crew of Moya discussing new components for the ship and complaining about communication problems caused by the shadow of a nearby planet. Recording a message, John Crichton explains that he believes a solar flare, combined with a slingshot maneuver, opened the wormhole that first carried him to this region of space. Crichton and Aeryn Sun take the module down to the planet for repairs, but their slingshot maneuver is caught by an unstable wormhole and they narrowly avoid destroying Farscape-1.
12. Once in the planet's atmosphere, the crew detects a plasma leak on the starboard propulsor and decides to isolate the module in the maintenance bay while they patch it. Crichton and Aeryn land and hire Furlow to repair the craft, but a planetary shadow keeps them from signaling Moya directly. Solar flares strike the planet regularly every 4.8 cycles, about five years, and the next one is due soon.
13. Captain Bialar Crais broadcasts a wanted beacon on the planet, offering a reward for the recapture of three escaped Peacekeeper prisoners. Realizing that returning to Moya would expose the crew to pursuit, Crichton and Aeryn decide to pose as bounty hunters so they can remain on the planet until the module is repaired.
14. Vorcarian Blood Trackers Rorf and Rorg reach the planet to collect the Peacekeeper bounty, and the bounty-hunter cover forces Crichton and Aeryn into a tense double game as they try to stay one step ahead of both the trackers and the Peacekeepers.
