Overall, I think they got away with this. Firstly, Risa looks like the most horrible tourist trap in the galaxy, and I wouldn't go there without a phaser to my head, but luckily the story avoided showing too much of it. Firstly by introducing Vash, secondly by building up the tox utadt idea, they took us away from the resort and out into the country. Vash was essentially a stock character, seductive but selfish. Of course, they added a Ferengi as well, which hardly helped matters. The resolution dangled an interesting thread, the Vorgons headed back in time again, with the implication that they would inevitably succeed, now with foreknowledge of what happened. Overall, I would tend to avoid this episode in future. |
