Originally posted by The6thRace View PostVery nice solid episode. I always like the whole home base invasion scenario. Loved it every time it happened in SG-1. Lots of action and jokes - nothing really too new plotwise other than a major villain being put down.
What was Michaels trophy from Ronan? For a minute there, I thought he was going to cut off his hair and we'd see Ronan with a new haircut.

FCOL! That was NOT the way to end it!! Aargh, I know all things must come to an end, but that was too soon. TPTB have absolutely no clue how to handle the baddies.
Good: What can I say? I’ve been a huge Michael fan since his first appearance, so I was looking forward to this episode as soon as I found out about it.
Michael-Ronon fight scene was over quickly but proved that the hybrids would doubtlessly rule the galaxy if their numbers were greater. Which is why I couldn’t understand why the Michael-Sheppard lasted so long.
Rodney proves Jackisms are contagious, FCOL!
The baby playing Torren was so cute, and I for one and glad they didn’t bump him off.
Spoiler:If it had to happen, I guess I’m glad it was Teyla who got to do it; although once again we saw a main character make an action that would usually keep most people awake for at least a few nights. And as always, everyone acts like nothing happened. *sigh*
Bad:The end! The entire thing! Except for maybe the part with Ronon and Woolsey.If your work speaks for itself, don't interrupt. ~Henry J. Kaiser

He was a murderous, sickening tyrant who committed horrendous acts and blamed them on the people who influenced his life rather than to accept he alone committed those acts. Teyla was never going to go with that monster, and she knew Michael wasn't ever going to keep his word. She was stalling for time. Michael paid the consequences.
Michael has been right from the very beginning. All that he has done could have been prevented as long as we hadn't turned him into our test subject. Everything after that has been to stay alive since neither human or wraith would accept him after what we did to him.
Michael is our fault and everything he has done is our fault too.
We created the monster.

Originally posted by PhoenixKnght86 View PostI disagree that everything Michael did was his fault. The whole reason I began watching Atlantis was because of what we did to Michael and the fact that no one would ever own up to it even when Michael had them all dead to rights.

There's a certain level of accountability. Michael wasn't doing something to survive, he was doing something out of revenge and power lust.

Excellent episode. The last act alone was enough to convince me as this being one of the best eps of the season. A one on one face off with Sheppard and Michael on the outside of the city. The episode exceded my expactations. Michael was killed in a very very powerful dramatic way, unlike........*cough* Kolya *Cough*.
I know the Teyla fans are going to be happy with this episode.sigpic
