I am curios, why this fascination with Michael character? I don't find anything interesting about his character and he only made it so far with a lot of help and plot holes.
In 'Michael', even if he kills someone he was left almost unguarded and Teyla is made his contact, even if it was a known fact that she was senstive to telepathic influences, which Wraith have. It is almost as they invite him to escape. Is actually funny because if they would have kept him in a Atlantis force shield cell he would have never be able to escape, but because he actually murder a guard he was transferd to a lower security facility, a tent.
In 'Missbegotten', they also let him almost unguarded, but this time with 200 potential Wraith who can revert anytime and give him a hand, send a telepatic signal, build a ship, hyjack a jumper, take hostages, and other Wraith stuff. And all this after he had the knowledge of the first location of Atlantis and actually bringed a Hive to it and 2 to Earth. Nice. Well apparently the Wraith on the Hive he embarked tried to kill him too, but our briliant scientist, is actually a hybrid-Wraith terminator too and manage to escape tricking 1-2 thousands of Wriath. Of course.
But the funny part is in 'Vengance', when Sheppard has him in weapon sight, when Michael let the stunner down but the colonel got soft and esitate to shoot, a silence is following (even if Michael is now an official serial killer, with another 4 marines killed and few races wiped out and at least a allied one). Not only that but at the end after he took the unconcious Rodney and Teyla in the dart, Sheppard could have scooped Michael as well with the dart and problem solved, but he left, probably was late for dinner or something.
In 'Kindred 1', Daedalus is getting rusty, very Michael convenient.
And in 'Kindred 2', the brave Sheppard team storm Michael main complex ('heavily guarded', Carson's words), with a doctor and 'famous sniper' (Rodney) and no marines back up, at least a team if not more and inacceptable without the Daedalus behind, even if they were aware by now that Michael has a fast ride and he likes to fly it, away. But at least a team of marines would have been enough to stop Michael escape, with one team pimpointed by the enemy, the other could have been searching the complex and prevent Michael from escaping. But probably they thought that Michael would stand still untill Rodney and Carson finish the all the many guards there.
And here we are with no clues about Michael (at least he likes the name, because what is a villan without a cool name?) new direction. I think M is probabaly the luckiest villan ever concived in a television show. Good for him, but still unimpressed by the lack of situation realism. Not to mention that i have no ideea what his plan is and any prospect seem pointless. I mean to create an space bugs army he would need human DNA, a lot and the few milions humans that are probably left in Pegasus are already taking major casualities from the Wraith or our other mistakes (replicators), so his army will eventually rule a dead galaxy. just lame. Well i guess we will see his plan destroy long before that, because otherwise i don't see how M would have the resurces to actually build enough ships to take down at least the Wraith, because they would certanly not fight on the ground if they are in disadvantage. This is the art of being vague and if the writers finish it fast enough, they don't even have to explain the futility of Michael's plan, whatever the plan really is.
And he was also lucky we manage to keep Teyla and her unborn safe until now and deliver her to him, even if she was in few situation in which she or at least the baby came close to a second of dead, like in 'Spoils of War' most recently. I mean this child seem to be the central nexus of his plan and he took a great bet waiting to the last moment to took her. But M is just lucky bug.
