This however is unsettling to al of the cadets. The fear and concern of what is happening is readily apparent on each of their faces. This is a testament to the subtleties of acting with performers casting visual representation on each of their faces, yet by different expression.<\/p>\n

Sully reacts to Dima’s death from last episode, when the space tether was blown away. Tom mentions Colonel Mehaffey. Both very poignant lines as each are realizing the loss this battle has brought upon them.<\/p>\n

This portion of the scene is reminiscent of the best scenes from Predator<\/em>, the movie franchise. Yet, I got a feeling of even more urgency here as these cadets are unarmed and trapped.
