The Raza is running out of fuel and supplies.  The crew must find a space port and replenish themselves both financially and materialistic.  A strange encounter with a mysterious man on the space station leaves Three (Sunshine) suspicious of One (Pretty Boy).  Four (Slashy) gets some answers as to who he is and why he is on the Raza.

Dark Matter S1E4 01The Good

  • The Android is starting to feel left out and lonely. She tries to interact with the crew, but they seem to be too busy.
  • Two (Boss Lady) and the Kid try their luck at a space station casino. Watching the Kid get lucky at a Three Card Monty game, Two decides to use the Kid’s skill and do a Rain Man scam in the casino, but end up getting the Casino treatment by the owner of the place.  Fortunately, Two is able to fight them off, but it leaves the Kid somewhat traumatized by Two’s brutality.
  • Four tries to get answers about the ring he found on the Raza at a pawn shop. The shop owner totally freaks out when he sees the ring, saying the ring is a family crest and can only be worn by royalty.  The owner closes his shop and leaves Four in the dark with no more answers.
  • While trying to find a buyer for their shipment of guns, Three and One encounter a man that mirrors One’s face and calls himself Jace Corso (One’s actual name).
  • Six (Tiny) goes to a medical clinic on the space station to get treated for the electrical burn he got in the last episode. Six discovers that their faces are everywhere as wanted fugitives.  He escapes the clinic and rushes back to the Raza.
  • Three and One find out that this Jace Corso was not part of the original Raza crew and was recruited to join them to take care of some miners on a planet. He was shocked to find out that the Raza left without him, but confused to discover that he was on the ship after all.
  • The crew is able to make it back on board the Raza before the authorities could attain them. Unfortunately, their financial problem is still not solved, perhaps even worse than before.
  • Four is able to retrieve some information about current events from the space station’s database. He finds out that there was an assassination of a very powerful king of the Ishida Clan and the son of the king is the primary suspect.  The suspect looks exactly like Four.
  • Three blackmails One into doing whatever he wants or else Three will expose him to the crew about what he found out back on the station.

Dark Matter S1E4 02The Bad

  • If One and Four are not part of the original Raza crew, then who is?
  • Now that Three has leverage over One, Three will be more of a threat to the crew now more than ever.
  • What is Four going to do, now that he found out who he is and what he is accused of?

This week this episode has humor, action, revelations and more questions.  It is still a mystery as to who sabotaged the Raza, but more clues are starting to reveal itself as to who they are.
