What happens when you have plot for ⅓ of an episode and three main characters?  Repetition!  Kenneth and Eugene look at the Starhunter Redux episode Eat Sin.

Episode Synopsis 

After the mostly nonsensical events of the previous episode, Dante finds himself alone on the Tulip, except then its Lucretia all alone and then its Percy all alone, and it’s confusing Caravaggio, despite the fact that he doesn’t know that its confusing him.  Don’t worry, if you’re confused now, buckle up, we’re about to crack the graviton coils of reality.

At this stage of the… err.. let’s call it a “story” for want of a better word, each of our protagonists are in parallel bubble universes, each following roughly in the same physical footsteps of the others,  each asking roughly the same questions, each roughly getting the same answers from Caravaggio, who both is unaware of the phenomena and also aware of it somehow.

Next we switch to Dante’s bubble universe, where he discovers that the prisoner, Mr. Five has escaped with the help of a… thing.

Dante’s gun disappears from his holster, the guns disappear from the gun rack, and then Five goes to the gun rack, and takes guns out of the gun rack.

Later Dante finds a pile of guns on the bridge and when he touches it, he is shocked unconscious, by… something.  Five tie him up, taunts him a bit about killing Percy and going to the Oort Cloud, then takes him to the shuttle bay where, in a very satisfying scene, he beats and kicks Dante and leaves him behind to check something on the bridge.  Upon Five’s return, Dante escapes, disappears, ends up on the bridge with a gun, confronts Five and kills him.

Now we watch the whole thing again, this time with Lucretia in the leading role.  It’s the exact same thing only different.  He actions are slightly different, Five taunts her about her father, they go to the shuttle bay, yada yada yada, she escapes, kills him with a knife.

Now we watch the whole thing again, this time with Percy in the leading role, it’s once again the same, only different, Percy using technology instead of weapons to eventually escape this bubble universe and blowing up the Trans-Utopian with Five aboard as she leaves.

She finds Dante, and Five, this time they both escape the bubble universe and blow up the Trans-Utopian with Five aboard as they leave.

Now they find Lucretia, and the three of them discover Five locked up in his cell.  Pretty much the end.  Except Percy, that night, imagines that Five has snuck into her room and is strangling her.  Or was it her imagination?
