    Yeah, but they could go without power for a few days until the Daedalus drops off new supplies. Also, wouldn't Everett have brought a load more with him, maybe not of the suped up ones, but he should have brought a few spares. Besides which would you rather lose, power for a few days or Sheppard?

      Umm... have I missed something? Has this episode already aired? The release date in the guide says 05.03.25 and I've not seen it yet.

        I assume that the awkward silence after my question means one of three things:
        a) I have asked a very stupid question and that my answer lies within the silence.
        b) No one is reading this thread anymore.
        c) People are ignoring me for some reason.

        My guess is (a).

          It's aired elsewhere. Like in the U.K and in Canada and other people have downloaded the eps from the net.

            OK...a week after it aired in the UK...I finally get my hands on this ep!

            1. Add my name to the 'Everett should be a Wraith snack' list

            2. So...the Atlantis crew decide try and blag a nuke off the Genii - given the circumstances, not that bad an idea! Slight problem, namely the Genii! Weir STILL managed to blag the nuke though. Drink well earned!

            3. Big up to the VFX crew! Smooth work!

            4. Like Sheppard's monologue at the end.

            5. Who exactly was this ep supposed to be in memory of?

              Anyone know when season 2 (And hence Siege Pt.3) airs?

                I was watching season 4 of Babylon 5 recently and there is an episode (epp. 10 0r 11 I think) that has the actor who plays Col. Everett as the second in command of the Mars resistance and his voice was almost the same.

                  well even though i haven't seen it yet (airs this friday) I have read some of the transcript and i and just so excited. I can't wait to see it. But i just hate when they end a season on a to be continued. It makes waiting for the summer so much more unbearable.

                      We don't actually get to see it. It hasn't arrived by the end - something else we have to wait for!

                        It was pretty stupid of them to use the nuke mines against the Wraith since they used a similar tactic against the Goa'uld and failed.

                            I actually enjoyed Col. Everett. I always enjoy the adversaries, they always bring life to the other characters. I also liked how he asked Mckay how long it was since he last slept (I am also wondering..was LFP the last time?). Did anyone happen to notice that David Orth had a guest appearance?! As long as they don't kill Zelenka or Beckett off, I'm happy!! I'd say all of my other favs are safe Despite my dislike for the Genii, I still enjoyed this ep. It was pretty good..

                              Everett is actually a pretty good character. Very realistic. I like how they didn't just shove him into the "hard-headed marine bigot" stereotype, although it seemed like that would be the case when the episode began.

                                Great episode. Probably the best out of the entire season, IMO.

                                One question: Did Teyla shoot those men? Or was she kidnapped? I think she shot them.

                                Also,
