Synopsis:
Episode 1.05 Exodus From Genesis

Attempting to hide from one of Crais` scout ships, Moya takes refuge behind a cloud of astroid debris. The debris is, in fact, a swarm of Draks (alien life forms). Crichton discovers that these "space cockroaches" have invaded the ship, and that they have created replicants of himself, D`Argo, Aeryn and Zhaan. Meanwhile, peacekeepers have also boarded Moya, where they kill every Drak replicant they can find...

Episode 1.06 Thank God It`s Friday... Again

During an excursion to the planet Sykar, D`Argo finds a new life, harvesting Tannot root just like all the other drone-like inhabitants of the planet. Whilst on Sykar trying to convince D`Argo to leave, Rygel ingests large quantites of Tannot, and back on board Moya discovers that it has a rather unusual side effect... Meanwhile, Crichton works hard to free both D`Argo and Zhaan from the effect of the root before the Sykarian leader enslaves them all and takes over the ship...

Episode 1.07 PK Tech Girl

The Crew of Moya discovers a derelict Peacekeeper Command Carrier. Whilst exploring for anything usable, they come across Gilina, a Sebacean sent by Crais to salvage anything valuable. Crichton and Gilina find themselves attracted to one another, but need to put things on hold whilst they work together to fend off an attack from the Sheyangs, a race of aggressive scavenger aliens....

Episode 1.08 That Old Black Magic

On a mysterious planet Crichton is enticed by a `fortune-teller` to step inside his tent, and finds that his spirit is literally torn from his body as he is transported to the world of the evil sorcerer Maldis. Trapped, he finds that his spirit is forced to fight Crais` spirit in a deadly games devised to entertain Maldis. Trying to resue Crichton, Zhaan joins forces with a local shaman... but first she must rekindle a darkness within herself that she thought had been buried forever...

Episode 1.09 DNA Mad Scientist

Moya`s crew seeks out Namtar, a geneticist able to provide star charts to the home world of a species simply by examining samples of their DNA. Namtar offers to provide charts for D`Argo, Zhaan and Rygel in exchange for one of Pilot`s arms. As the other quarrel over which home world they will return to first, Aeryn asks Namtar to find her a colony that she can call home. However, instead of taking a sample of Aeryn`s DNA, Namtar injects her with a sample of Aeryn`s DNA, Namtar injects her with a sample isolated from Pilot and she becomes a host body for one of his deadly experiments.
