Sure wish there had been some follow-up episode, like a sequel, for this one.

**carni:** Yep, that’s what I’m talkin’ about. I read an excellent fan fic follow-up called “Redemption,” at least. In “Regeneration,” they seem a bit tense with each other (take a look at the beginning), but by the time they get to “Bounty” they’re off and bonding again on some planet.

**Tars** : That scientist’s name is actually B’Rat, not Brat, but it’s still Bratty all the same. 😃
