Better Ending to Officer Rimmer?

[Flap Jack]

I’m just thinking about the way they defeat the Rimmer abomination here; you can put any snarky “Officer Rimmer had an ending?” reactions aside for a moment.

It was well established in the episode that Bio-prints disintegrate once they’ve served their life’s purpose, so: what if they had beaten the Rimmer monster by convincing it that it had fulfilled its purpose?

E.g. they somehow promote the Rimmer monster to Captain, or they make a Bio-print of Rimmer’s dad, and get him to tell the monster that he loves and is proud of him.

You’d have to rewrite some details to make this work, but it might be a more satisfying pay off than just them distracting it for a few seconds so they have a chance to shoot it in the face. -_-

I thought it was “come on her toes”.

You know, like “spit on her wrist”. It is a clever pun.

Lister : You forgot the lyrics of the theme tune!
Rimmonster : What’s that?
Lister: it’s the song which plays at the end of each episode, but that’s not important right now.
