As a result of the manner in which Dick settled his dispute with Liam, the group is ordered home. Of course, there are always loose ends to tie up before a long space trip.

Excellent show for poking fun at humanity for what it really is and how uncivilised civilisation has become. A corking good show with a very consistent quality standard for the most part.
