Dream a Little Dream Review Book Summary and Study Guide
Zhan gets framed on the planet of the lawyers.
I don't know about you, but I'm getting just a little bit tired about Zhan moaning with self-pity and guilt. She should carry tissues with her wherever she goes. She was much better in the first season when she was tougher and displayed a sterner character. The flashbacks with Aeryn, Creighton, and Dargo seemed padded to give them roles in an episode where they wouldn't have otherwise appeared.
The bit at the end about Moya shining light into the courtroom raised some interesting problems:
1) How does Moya project light?
2) How does Moya project light into a room without skylights, and wouldn't the light light up the whole city?
3) Why does Moya even care about them, given her baby concerns?
4) Since this is an obviously technologically advanced society, shouldn't they be able to figure out the light trick?
The idea of being on a planet of 90% lawyers was an interesting one. I also liked the idea that lawyers could be sentenced with their clients for promoting an untrue defense. Did you notice that the lawyer was named "Dersh"--Dershowitz? Without endorsing drug use, the scene where Chianna, high up amphetamines, was speaking very rapidly, was also kind of cute.
