Ideas for season 3

I figure the season finale aired long enough ago I can start wildly guessing the future based on nothing.

Season 3 will begin a few months later with the crew mostly separated. Zairon successfully copied the blink drive and won the war but Ryo's paranoia over being killed made him put limitation on it; a few ships control the blink drives for the rest of his fleet. Three had his mind wiped again and is now working for the Galactic Authority with Anders. Five's still with Truffault learning more about the corporations and exploring the memories. She isn't being forcibly held but her location isn't known. Two, Six, and the Android are all of the Raza trying to find Three and Five while dealing with the effects of Ryo's war. They managed to capture several blink drives but can't make them work.

The early episode will cover Five rejoining the crew, Three being captured by the crew, and the crew confronting Ryo. Throughout the season Two and Ryo will delve into the cost and responsibilities of being a leader, Six will confront the consequences of the blink drive being used like he wanted, Three will confront his past when the only way to bring him back is to bring Boone back, and the Android will continue discovering herself. And Five will somehow become everybody's shrink because of course she will.

We've had way to much separation so far. Please no more, it's like every week the guessing begins on which crew member is missing, gotten there memory, lost there memory, or needs to be rescued. I think the fans want more cohesiveness with the crew. Can we simply get more group camaraderie within the Raza crew. The whole group just looks like they are depressed. Lighten the mood once in a while.

I got it, have them throw a galactic party, loosen the series up.....I can't understand this attraction I have with "a drunk Truffault dancing".

The galaxy is on the brink of war, a summit of all the major corporation was destroyed, and a paranoid dictator has the most powerful weapon known. I don't see how they can lighten the mood. I do agree that we've had too much separation. However, I also think some time needs to pass to raise the stakes. If they get the Blink drive back before Ryo uses it then why bother having him steal it. Why have Three last seen with Anders or Five with Truffault?

[–] lamont-hard 8 years ago

I think Anders has a agenda all his own for three, I just don't see why the crew or three is so important to him with what he just learned and witnessed. There is something more to it. With trufault I was thinking they would be related until her henchperson tried to kill her back at the prison. As with Anders Truffault seems to have a keen interest in five. As I stated I think the series lost some steam in its somphmor season. Sci-fy fans need group heroics not a trader and disappearing everytime around. Be a complete group or at least close friend teams. We had team members falling apart on Alphas and it just doesn't work in sci-fy.

Before they can get the Blink Drive back [I agree some time must pass]4 will develop it and sink his enemies, then a rouge general goes off the grid in a coup. This is where he needs his friends "Raza group" to stay in power and keep the peace.

Despite 4s brutal behavior to his family He seemed rational. He said some thoughtful things to certain crew members and he gave warning to the crew of what was coming so they could escape.

Truffault gets drunk and sleeps with Three, I think her and 5 are the only still living female main characters that haven't.

Ryo will become the main antagonist in season #3. The Raza will eventually kill him.

Yes. I think this is the most likely scenario for Season 3 too 'cause I can't see the writers going back with the character after the events that happened in the last two episodes of Season 3 unless it isn't the real Four. I was actually surprised they didn't have him appear as being more villainous in the final episode after he killed all those people though and not care about the members of the Raza at all.

I could see him having a fight scene with Two in Season 3.

Question: Should the Ra have any major allies and if so who?

[–] zupapazupap 8 years ago

Now the blink drive has confirmed the multiverse, they'll all realise how pointless their original reality is and travel to a paradise dimension to loaf around.

Interesting guess, but what I've heard is that the creators want to explore the Corporations War. Apparently, all major happenings, including killing One, have to do with setting up this confrontation.

That being said, I kinda wish instead they would let the Raza go back to being pseudo-outlaws pulling jobs and heists at different bizarre and seedy parts of the galaxy. That's what I first enjoyed so much about the show.

I'm telling you, it the Lando!

[–] drawsdakcab 8 years ago

I think the Raza wants the same thing you do but their consciences won't let them. Although since they no longer possess the blink drive they are now no more capable than any other armed vessel. Perhaps season 3 will have "the Raza go back to being pseudo-outlaws pulling jobs and heists at different bizarre and seedy parts of the galaxy" with the Corporations War playing a background roll.
