Archer 1999: "Cubert" is the eighth episode of Season 10, and the one hundred and ninth episode overall.

PlotEdit

SynopsisEdit

Archer is convinced a mysterious object is causing the crew to act strangely.

SummaryEdit

The crew of the MV Seamus takes aboard a mysterious, reflective cube which seems to have properties unlike those known to anyone on the crew, including Dr. Krieger. When suddenly the crew finds their newfound object missing, members scatter to hunt down their new bounty. For Mr. Archer, however, the hunt grows more and more confusing with each appearance of characters and clothing that seems out of place yet all too familiar.

Cultural ReferencesEdit

Sphere (film) (1998): The shimmering cube is similar to the gold sphere in the movie, which contained an alien intelligence which called itself Jerry. After entering the sphere, Samuel L. Jackson character developed a ravenous appetite - like Carol did after her head was freed from the cube.

Alien: Carol had a sudden seizure during the feast, just like in the Alien movie before the Xenomorph broke out from the chest.

Running Gags / CallbacksEdit

Archer's hallucinations of seeing the MV Seamus crew in their prior roles, such as Lana Kane, the rock creature Pam as Pam Poovey and TV's Michael Gray.
(Space) Phrasing, said by Pam when Malory wonders about Krieger's ultra-long 26-digit security code.

ContinuityEdit

Reality (Non-Dream):Archer remains in a coma brought upon by the events of Deadly Velvet: Part II (s7e10)

Dream / Reality Crossover:
- (Dream) ... / (Reality) ...

Dream (Non-Reality):

TriviaEdit

non-cultural reference; misc information etc
The callbacks to some of the characters 'real' identities may indicate he is coming out of his coma.
