Incursion (2)

As Young and Camille attempt to resolve the hostage crisis with Kiva, Destiny suffers from power fluctuations and blackouts due to its proximity to a binary pulsar.

I don't remember big blood smears in SG1 or even Atlantis. Is that a new feature?

 

[Wycen]

Not sure it is new, rather more prominent. Part of the gritty BSG style I suspect.


spoilers...




Would have preferred the gamma rays were not the reason for disintegration but ok.

I couldn't tell, did Mr. Shoulder Surgery, (Varro?) kill both SGC and Lucian people in the infirmary?

 

[coyote6]

So, are we going to get a really mixed crew next year? Lucian Alliance, SGC military, and civilians? That'd be a mess.

 

[Wycen]

Just watched the encore showing scene with Eli and the computer. He said he sent his message in Ancient, but we see Rush leave before saying anything more about the message. Rush doesn't read Ancient does he?

My hypothesis is [false] that Franklin?, the guy in the computer, gave Eli the instructions to save Greer and Scott.

Edit: Didn't remember the scene with Rush sending Eli a message so that hypothesis was wrong.

And it looks like it was an SGC soldier who wrestled one of the Lucians for a gun which fired wildly and then Mr. Shoulder wound shot the SGC guy.

 

[Truth Seeker]

Man, such an unfair ending. I wanted more!!!

Non-dickish Telford has rapidly climbed the ranks of my favorite characters on the show. I really hope he doesn't die.

Speaking of death, I guess that's how they'll avoid the whole "Baby on Destiny" storyline. I didn't think they'd actually shoot TJ right in the stomach, or show it.

My absolute favorite beat in the episode was after Young yelled at the scientists, the next time he visits them he brings them food. I thought it was a nice subtlety for him to make a mea culpa like that.

When Chloe launched into her whole spiel, I rolled my eyes. To my surprise, by the end I was cheering for her. I love that she called out Eli on his behavior, and her "friendship is not a consolation prize" was perhaps the most poignant thing they've done on the show.

I was really hoping they'd do more with Wray. Personally, I was rooting for her to join the LA; that would have at least have been shocking. I would have settled for her resolving the situation with diplomacy when violence failed. We didn't get shrill and annoying Wray, which I suppose was good, but when the alternative is bland and boring Wray, I'm really not sure why she's even on the show.

I don't really expect them to kill off Scott and Greer, so that end part was a little anti-climactic.

The Stargate family cliffhangers have always been well done, but this one is just brutal. Now to wait for four months.

Not a fan of Chloe. I said to my wife that I hope she would get sucked out an airlock only a minute before Eli opened that door. She's alive, for now. The Gods are mocking me.

I liked that bit a lot.
