"This Woman's Work" is the sixth episode of the second season of the American science fiction series ''Defiance'', and the series' eighteenth episode overall. It was aired on July 24, 2014. The episode was written by Brian Allen Alexander and directed by Allan Arkush. ==Plot== Viceroy Mercado (William Atherton) returns to Defiance to inform Niles (James Murray) about the coming Arkfall and that he wants him to go with a team, Nolan (Grant Bowler) included, to retrieve an energy source from the Ark. Nolan and Niles get ready to go with the team when Tommy (Dewshane Williams) comes to join them with Berlin (Anna Hopkins). When Nolan asks Tommy where Irisa (Stephanie Leonidas) is, Tommy says that since Irisa and Berlin do not get along, Berlin will come with them while Irisa stays back. Nolan does not like the idea and tells Tommy that he is not going with them either, causing Tommy to quit his job. Berlin convinces Tommy to leave Defiance with her and sign up with the E-Rep in Texas. Nolan and Niles get to the fallen Ark along with Churchill (Rob Archer) and an E-Rep soldiers unit. The three of them go inside the Ark to search it and Nolan realizes that the Ark was never a refueling ship but a Gulanee transport vessel. One Gulanee has survived the crash, and the three of them rush out to return to the unit only to find all aboard dead. They return to the Ark, where they are trapped inside the ship while Nolan tries to create a weapon that will kill the Gulanee and save their lives. Nolan needs some extra time and asks Niles to distract the Gulanee. Niles sends Churchill outside on a suicide attack to give Nolan the extra time he needs. The Gulanee kills Churchill, but when it gets into the ship, Nolan's jury-rigged weapon kills it. Nolan and Niles return to Defiance, but Mercado is displeased with how the mission went and orders Niles to go to the Dakota Reach as a punishment, while the Viceroy will take over the town. Tommy wants to talk to Irisa about him leaving Defiance and he follows her while she skulks after a Castithan man. He sees her during the moment that Irzu takes over her body, and he believes that she has killed the Castithan. Irisa tells him that she did not and she convinces him to wait and see that the man will wake up and be fine. She tells him everything she knows about what is going on with her and he promises to keep her secret and try to help her. When Tommy tells Berlin that he can not leave because Irisa needs him, but not why, Berlin breaks up with him. Stahma (Jaime Murray) faces some problems with the holy man, Favi Kurr (Dominic Cuzzocrea), who tells her that her actions will cause problems to their community. Because of her, many Casti women might forget their place and start asking for more power or better treatment from their husbands. Stahma talks to Amanda about it, and Amanda advises her to talk to the other Castithan women. Stahma meets with some of them, but the other women make it clear that they will not support her in what she is trying to do. Since her attempt to convince the other women has failed, she realizes she cannot let them live to tell anyone what she is up to, so she poisons them and frames Favi Kurr for the crime. As a result, Kurr ends up on the shaming rack and is killed. At the end of the episode, Deirdre (Kristina Pesic) helps Christie (Nicole Muñoz) to get "into the skin" of the Castithans by putting makeup and a wig on her and dressing her like them. Mercado does the same at his home, and the two of them meet at a local Castithan club where Mercado starts flirting with Christie, not knowing who she is. Nolan and Berlin get together after her breakup with Tommy, since Amanda has ignored him to console Niles about his being sent to Dakota Reach. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「This Woman's Work (Defiance)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
