Star Wars reference (or ripoff) SPOILERS!


I just saw a rerun of the episode "Against All Odds" and in the end when Pyrus and Zera are attacked by three drones, the Aurora swoops in and blasts one away, then Pyrus and Zera look up, see the aurora and the other two beast ships are shot down. This scene is practically a shot for shot remake of the end of Star Wars when Luke is going to the exhaust port, cornered by Darth Vader and two TIE fighthers until Han Solo flys to the rescue in the Millenium Falcon. His approach is mimicked by the Aurora and the Beast ships go spinning away like Vader's fighter and the second TIE fighter. Did you notice that?

Mainframe loves to make references like that. They did it in all their shows.
