Notes
- The first episode for series regular Cally (Jan Chappell).
- The first time we find out about Gan’s limiter (which prevents him from killing someone).
- One of only two times we hear Gan’s full name spoken (Olag Gan).
- The indoor scenes in the Federation station here looks like that place they were in for the first ep of S2 when we run into the people who made the Liberator.
- Why is this episode called “Time Squad”? There’s no time aspect to this that I can figure out.

Some great Avon jabs here, you really wonder why he follows Blake at all. The first step is Blake wanting to destroy a Federation comms

#B7Marathon #Blakes7 Ep 4 - "Time Squad" - 23 Jan 1978 2/2 station. While Blake is on the planet a, capsule they found has suspended people come alive which they need to deal with. The planet part of the story gives us the final crew - Cally (a telepath). Overall an OK story - wraps up crew setup.
