And thus precisely Amorette WHY there needed to be a bit more dialogue here. I'm not saying they needed mounds and mounds of stories, but more interaction with the present crew, rather than comments made by Rhade to Holo Dylan and Rommie.

The ONLY information regarding Rhade's philosophy came with the fact that he wanted to make amends for his actions and due to the fact that the Nietzscheans 300 years had not embraced the philosophy of ENLIGHTENED SELF INTEREST. That needed to be explored more, or it is fuzzy WHY he failed. Just WHERE did he come to this realization?

It is also fuzzy WHY and WHAT would possess Rhade to destroy Tyr. There was NO indication that Tyr had come to the realization that the Nietzscheans of Tyr's time were inferior period. That should have been explored. We KNOW from Dylan's timeline WHY Tyr sees other Nietzscheans as inferior, but we had no indication that Tyr had come to that realization here. He, in fact seemed to act just as the other Nietzscheans. But did he? Not enough information. And it COULD have been done in a two parter, which is not unheard of with a clip show.

Different point of view, but I respectfully disagree.
