Tell Me Why - Brainiac
For one of the recent challenges at scifiland we have to create a manifesto/appreciation post on a show/character/ship/episode, etc, that explains why we love it. I decided to use Dark Angel and then spent ages tossing up what I would do. I could have done a Malec post or one specific to Alec or Max... was even gonna do something episodic but I just couldn't decide on what episode. I finally settled on "Brainiac" and then the trouble was trying to bring down the amount of caps I wanted to use :P

One of my favourite Dark Angel eps for a number of reasons. I absolutely adore Brain and there is just this connection between Alec and Max, something that's hinted at as a possibility and you just know that he would have been a big part of season three, if there had been one. I love the conversation they have at the end of the episode - you just know that Max is surprised that not only can Alec understand what she needs and empathize with her, but that he understands her as well. It is also never clearer just how different humans are from Transgenics - Just one more nail in the Mogan coffin :P
