'Justice' (110) General Discussion

[min min light]

My point being, leaving Rush on the planet did not make the ship a safer place. You don't ditch the guy who might be able to figure out the solution to your next life-threatening problem.

[jelgate]

You don't rely on a guy who can't be trusted

[garhkal]

And framing Young is not what i class as a putting everyone in jeopardy moment.. so we are left with just the 'sending them all there from Icarus, which what imo somewhat alieviated by him solving the air issue.

[jelgate]

Sure it was. He deepen the divide of civillians and military. We saw what that effect had in Space and Divided.

He caused the issue in Air. He doesn get any points for that. They never would have had a problem if Rush hadn't created one. Sen. Armstrong wouldn't be dead if it wasn't for Rush

[Matt G]

But was it stupid? Rush has endangered the crew multiple times. In an ideal situation Rush would be put in a jail cell but that is not possible given the situation

Perfectly doable to have him confined to quarters! Marooning Rush...

Spoiler:

...just allowed him to play the victim card when he returned. Even Young later admitted it wasn't a good idea

[jelgate]

Hindsight is 20/20

I really liked this one. It was obvious Rush had something to do with the "murder" and I wouldn't really know what to do myself, if I were in Young's shoes... He made a mistake I guess, but hey - Nobody on this show is perfect. And Rush certainly knows how to provoke the guy
Awesome ep.

And in this thread there was some really close guesses to what happens next. I admit I haven't read all 100+ pages, but very good guessing...

My own first guess was, that they somehow fixed Destiny, and went back for Rush...

Spoiler:

obviously I didn't count for the aliens would show up

[garhkal]

Well we know he had nothing to do with the murder itself, but the cover up/frame job he did.

[Baron Of Hell]

I loved this episode. Justice is a great name for the episode. Was justice served at the end? I think not, more like revenge.

I think this episode represents why I like this show so much. Neither Young or Rush are presented in comic book good and evil terms. These guys have layers of gray.

[CarrieAnn]

Yes, I'm speechless now. Young and Rush really hate each other don't they. Very dark.

[CarrieAnn]

And what's this supposed to mean? Yikes.

Young: Are we done?
Rush: We'll never be done.

[jelgate]

It means that Rush will never stop trying to steal Young's authority.

[Krisz]

Mwha ha ha.....that dastardly Rush!

I will always remember the disbelief I felt on seeing Young leave Rush on that planet for the first time. One of the memorable moments from SGU!

[jelgate]

I remember the forum arguments of Rush vs Young more than the episode itself.

[CarrieAnn]

Its hard to know which of them is worse- framing someone for murder or abandoning someone on a planet alone. I don't think we've seen the last of Rush though, something tells me...!
