 >  Their romance is cut short when Timicin reveals a devastating truth: he is 
 60 years old and must soon return to his home world for "The Resolution"€€?a

 custom on his planet, 
 meant to ensure that the elderly do not become a burden on the younger 
 generations.

 I wish you added your own thoughts on these episodes instead of just 
 posting Gemini's output. Human discussion is always more interesting. Up 
 to you, of course. :-)
