World of Desires
Gene, Jim, Hilda, and Melfina (the girl in the suitcase) escape from the pirates. They make their way in Hilda's drop ship to the Horus, her spaceship. Hilda takes them to Blue Heaven. They explore while the Horus is getting repaired. Jim takes Melfina to buy some clothes. Gene and Hilda tangle with some loud mouths in a bar. Hilda deals with them but the guys from the bar catch up to them later that night. Hilda and Gene are ready for them but it turns out the thugs brought some heavy machinery with them.
Thoughts
This episode opens up with images from Gene's past. A narrator waxes philosophic about growing up as Gene ages in the pictures from a boy into a man.
Jim teases Jim about going into space. He tells Hilda that Gene is a space virgin but that isn't true. It seems that Jim doesn't know the truth about his friend. Gene has flashbacks to the day he lost his father, in space.
So far so good. The story isn't blowing me away but its a decent watch. It has yet to turn me off. There is a lot that has yet to be revealed and there are regular members of the cast of characters that have yet to make their first appearance.
