Ep 6. All Too Human

In Andromeda season 2 episode 6, titled "All Too Human," the crew of the Andromeda Ascendant encounters a group of genetically-enhanced humans who are on the run from their creators. These "Enhanced" humans have been artificially enhanced in order to possess higher intellectual and physical capabilities, but at a great cost - they are treated as property and have no say in their own lives.

The episode opens with the Andromeda encountering a ship that is under attack by several Commonwealth ships. The crew quickly discovers that the ship is carrying Enhanced humans, and that they are being pursued by their creators, a group of scientists who want to bring them back to the lab to continue their experiments. Dylan Hunt, the captain of the Andromeda, decides to help the Enhanced escape their pursuers and offers them sanctuary on his ship.

As the Andromeda makes its way through space with the Enhanced on board, tensions start to rise between the two groups. The Enhanced are a proud and independent people who are used to being in control, while the crew of the Andromeda has a very different way of life that values teamwork and compromise. The two groups clash several times, but eventually find a way to work together when they discover that the Commonwealth is planning on using the Enhanced as weapons in an upcoming war.

The episode is filled with action and suspense, as the crew of the Andromeda must fight off the Commonwealth ships while trying to protect the Enhanced. The Enhanced also have some key moments of their own, as we see their struggle to be accepted as equals by the crew of the Andromeda, who initially see them as little more than lab experiments. As the episode progresses, however, we see the Enhanced prove their worth to the crew, and we see them earn their place on the ship as valued members of the team.

Overall, "All Too Human" is a thought-provoking episode that explores themes of identity, freedom, and what it means to be human. The Enhanced are a fascinating group of characters, and their struggle to find their place in the universe is both compelling and heartbreaking. The crew of the Andromeda also has some great moments, as we see them face off against the Commonwealth and fight for what they believe in. Fans of the show will definitely not want to miss this episode, which ranks among the best of season 2.
