I thought this was such a neat concept - having a redshirt not die and instead turn into a little bitter ball of resentment over getting marooned on a shithole. Loved La'an & Mbenga being on the A-Team, and I loved Spock and Ortegas kinda getting to bond too.

Though I still don't quite get what it was about the palace that made everyone's (including Luke's) memories come back.

The palace was build with a specific ore that block radiation or some shit, same with the helmets

[beesknees7]

God, thank you! So the ore is what the memory-less underclass were mining in the quarries?

[benihime99]

I think so
I'd have to rewatch and pay more attention

the ore was in orbit from the collision hundreds of years ago

Thank you! This is what I get for watching episodes right after I wake up.
