Predictions please ladies and gentlemen
I agree that people may be expecting too much from the final episode. In order to explain the beginning of time again, and the rebirth of the Light Universe, the Divine Order, et al, they would need a whole LOT more than just one hour-long episode (commercials extracted). So while they [b]might[/b] hint at the cycle of time, I don’t think we’re actually going to see it.
Micromary gave the most succinct possibility. The very first Lexx story (IWHS) did start with Kai’s death. And since Prince has promised Kai his soul so that he can go at last to the Dream Zone (a bargain I think he’ll keep), it’s probable that the final episode will end the story with Kai’s death, his [b]real[/b] death. And in a few million years, time stops and then begins again, and it all plays out as before.
As the Master of Ceremonies in Brigadoom said: “Kai’s story is the most important story in the universe.”
