The ending makes the episode -- this one, at least. "Move Along Home" looked like a pretty standard "the crew get stuck in a deadly game" story, and on those terms it was fun (and a good way to get to know the characters, who were still pretty new to us). But that ending was classic. "It's only a game." Of course it is! What aliens visiting a space station would be fool enough to risk killing its command crew just to get back at the bartender? It's not a copout, but it means that we (and the characters) have been worrying over nothing. What a cool twist.

Now if you want the dregs of Season 1, we can talk about "If Wishes Were Horses"...
