Your Cheating Heart is an index, not a trope.


The crew stops at a [[SpaceStation commerce station]], hoping to pick up supplies and find information on a planet they can take Zhaan to so she can heal from her injuries. While Crichton [[DrowningMySorrows drowns his sorrows]] and exposits to a bored bartender, Aeryn goes shopping for some [[MoreDakka bare necessities]], and Chiana and Jothee [[YourCheatingHeart share an illicit tryst]] while D'Argo is elsewhere. The station is struck by a massive space storm which tears it apart, causing hundreds of deaths and entangling Moya in the wreckage. The crew works to [[DamageControl disentangle Moya]] and [[SinkingShipScenario work to rescue any survivors on the station]].

* YouJustToldMe: When D'Argo catches Jothee and Chiana together yet again, and questions a strange smell (that isn't the body-wash they used before to get rid of evidence of their lovemaking), Chiana's guilty conscience leads to her lying poorly and then finally confessing the truth. Only after the damage is done and D'Argo is stalking away in a cold fury does he pause to note that he realized the smell he'd detected was something else entirely, from some malfunctioning equipment, making the confession AllForNothing. Played with, however, in that D'Argo was clearly suspicious and [[AmbiguousSituation may have been]] withholding his realization precisely to provoke a confession.
* YourCheatingHeart: Chiana and Jothee are having an affair behind D'Argo's back. [[spoiler:They're found out first by Rygel, then by D'Argo.]]
