Even before Baldy was revealed to be listening in, I knew Teyla would eventually slip up, probably when she "interrogated" the team.
I thought she was smart. With Wraith around, possibly overhearing things and with the inhabitants of the hive already suspicious or at least only reluctantly following her orders, she should've known better than to blow her cover.
A smart way to do it would've been through "code". While I was watching the episode, I went through what she should've said in my head, something along the lines of:
"We've met before, Lanteans. I was queen of another hive then, but I'm supreme queen of this alliance now. Any attempts to escape will have dire consequences! If you stay complacent and do not resist, I will make your deaths as painless as possible, after I'm through interrogating you personally."
All the while making eye gestures or whatever. That's what I've would've done in her position, not adopt some weird non-Wraithy voice and address them all by name and go all friendly.
