First of all: This might be my favorite episode of the show. Such thoughtful writing in every aspect. About the Bortus - Kelly situation: Yeah, I think it was implied, that they might develop feelings for one another. And I think it was hinted, that they were about to kiss. This was discussed a lot by fans. Remember: It happens, that male moclans fall in love with females. There was a whole episode about it, when a moclan fell in love with Talla Keyali. About Klyden. Yeah, I get the hate for Klyden. But I really liked what they did here with him. It was unexpected, but again, so well written. Almost made me tear up, and I'm not a very emotional person. I really believe he changed, that was the turning point in his heart. It was said in an earlier episode, that Klyden was born female, and that he had a forced sex-change. What I think is that he was traumatized, because of what has been done to him. I also believe, that he hates (or hated) females, because they represent what was taken from him. So from this point of view, he isn't so awful of a character anymore.
