LatestKyle rescues Dr. Sarah Jordan as Alan Farragut fights his own brother, Peter Farragut.

Production
Arctic base production design is gloriously suffocating.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Ronald D. Moore developed this between Battlestar Galactica and Outlander, and you can feel him working through his 'what if science but evil' phase.
The show's cancellation after season 2's bonkers cliffhanger (immortal cult apocalypse!) remains a sore spot for the small but fierce fanbase who still tweet #SaveHelix into the void.
