    Todd faked it?

    I personally thought Todd faked the urgent necessity to feed or he couldn't finish the code. It took him all of 2 minutes after he fed to get it done, even on his deathbed I'm sure he could type or tell Mckay what to do. And he completely killed the guy despite it being shown on multiple occasions Wraith don't have to do that to survive. I'm thinking he was real hungry, starving even, but not deathly so. He saw an opportunity to get a much desired meal and took full advantage of it.

    It's possible that he did take the opportunity to get fed, the problem is that sooner or later they would have to feed him and since he hadn't feed in a few weeks, it's very likely that he was hungry.

    I don't think being hungry was a matter of not being able to work, but being able to focus. Once he had fed, he was able to quickly to finish the program because he knew what he was doing.

    He wouldn't have to fake it anyway. He wants that code finished as much anyone, and he could have just denied helping until he was fed so there wouldn't have been a reason to fake it when he could have just been the evil Wraith he's supposed to be and blackmailed McKay for a meal. It's not like they could have killed him, because he still has the final bits of data to make the deactivation code work.

          It doesn't really matter if he faked it or not, they have to feed him at some point anyway. Pretty convenient that they found a volunteer though.

          Here's an idea: maybe they could just bring Todd to Texas every time he's hungry. It would be the perfect form of capital punishment.

            LOL. That it would. But then you might get some saying it is inhumane to use wraith to carry out the death sentence..

                So we named him Todd? Why Todd? I thought users were going with Gabriel. Anyway I hope he eventually tells the team his name and I agree that he wasn't faking his hunger.

                  If I remember correctly JM said that was his name that Shep gave him but the scene got cut.

                    I don't think Hayes is such a bad guy. He did take down Kinsey...

                          Interesting responses. Thanks for the input.

                          I agree with those who said that they would have to feed him sometime and that this was convenient. But while I'm sure he was extremely hungry, I don't think it would stop him from finishing in an hour what took him 2 minutes after he fed.

                          I also don't think blackmailing for food when you're a prisoner is his best interest when you can get the same result without causing direct conflict.

                          However, in the end I don't think this was even thought of, but added to provide a moral dilemma.

                            He was nearly finished and it wasn't that he couldn't finish he couldn't concentrate. So thats's why he didn't need much time.
