[QB]Episodes: 1.04, 2.01Inconsistency: In 2.01, the voice of HDS tells us that the Giga Shadow was destroyed by the Lexx (and we see a shot of the Lexx blowing up the Cluster), but we all REALLY know the Giga shadow was destroyed by the Fractal Core, when its positive mass got tangled up in the Fractal Core’s anti-mass, after Squish bit into its brain. Why does HDS say the Lexx destroyed it?
Explanation: Perhaps the narration is being done by the remnant essence left in Kai, which was transfered before the Giga Shadow was destroyed… ergo this remnant isn’t sure how the Giga Shadow bought it. OR perhaps HDS blames the Lexx because the Giga Shadow was attached to the Lexx when it got pulled into the Fractal Core.

That’s easy to explain. It was just a simplification of the backstory. The statement, “The Lexx destroyed the Gigashadow” generally explains what happend for the benefit of newbie viewers watching this show for the first time on the SciFi Channel. The viewer doesn’t really need to know exactly [i]how[/i] the crew of the Lexx defeated the Gigashadow. Explaining that the Gigashadow “was destroyed by the Fractal Core, when its positive mass got tangled up in the Fractal Core’s anti-mass, after Squish bit into its brain” is not relavent to the story of [i]2.01 Mantrid[/i] and would only confuse the viewer.
