My Three Crichtons
Teleplay by Gabrielle Stanton & Harry Werksman, Jr
Directed by Catherine Millar

PLOT
An energy sphere penetrates Moya and roams the tiers until it finds Crichton. It absorbs him, even while Aeryn fires at it.

Her firing seems to do some damage, though, as the sphere balloons out through the decking and eventually ejects Crichton. And then it ejects Crichton. And again.

There are now three versions of Crichton on Moya – one as we know him, one as a super-evolved intelligent Crichton and one as a caveman throwback.

The sphere tells the Crichtons that it is a research device gathering samples and that in this case the sample it wants is Crichton. But only one of him: it doesn't care which. But if it doesn't get one of the three of him it will take them all – the three Crichtons, Moya and everybody aboard.
