I think it is clear that franklin ascended. Which most likely means that ship wasn't designed to be without a crew. The ancients must have ascended and left it behind.
The question is did ancients help him, is the knowledge needed for ascension in the ship, or did the ancients figure out a away for technology to aid ascension. The cold temp could have something to do with it.

Yes you can because I agree it wasn't controversal at all. I actually thought it was quite respectful and relastic of regular disabled peopleClick the banner or episode links to visit the virtual continuations of Stargate!Previous Episode: 11x03 "Shore Leave" | Previous Episode: 6x04 "Nightfall" | Now Airing: 3x06 "Eldest"The Continuing Stargate Wiki | Stargate: Avalon l The New "Ark of Truth" | Stargate: Universe Reviews | Banner designs by Alx

The episode certainly was more plot than character, but those character moments were excellent. I think the writers did a great job with the interaction of Rush and Amanda. You really feel something in the end when she has to go back to her paralyzed body. She always had a thing for Rush and as did Rush so you can see the pain in both of their eyes. This is the kinda drama that truly raises the bar for the show. I also enjoyed Eli's conversation with Amanda. We are seeing that Rush is not a hearless SOB and truly is "Human".
The plot at hand was very exciting. You had the lost team return and become reunited, you had some cool use of technology, you had aliens closing in on The Destiny again, and the ship needing more power to be able to make it to the next galaxy. The whole Franklin thing was also very well done. I believe he ascended or is part of the ship now.
So this episode did have some slow parts, but it was not a painful bore like "Life". You had a strong plot with good character moments that did not drag into nothing. The Sharon and Camille scenes were decent enough to watch through and Wray being in Amanda's body did not have the drama effect I thought it would. I thought Amanda being in Wray's body was more dramatic and interesting, and truly sad at the end. Since her dream will be over and she will be paralyzed again.
One last thing I thought was powerful was the scene in the chair room. Rush, grabbing Young's arm before sitting in the chair. He could of let him sit, and maybe it was a better chance to have Franklin sit in the chair. But he seemed to have that look of "Don't give up your life, we need you" kinda look. I may need to rewatch to see it.
Spoiler:Any disspointments? I wanted to see the Smurfs enter the gate. I know there were previews in the MGM trailer but hate to say, I think it will be a hallucination by Chloe or Rush in the next episode. So oh well.
So final grade for the ep was an A or 9/10.

Noticed different things about Eli in this episode:
What is it with Eli all of a sudden not like being called "Math Boy"?
Listening to music and reading a book while sitting on the floor. I haven't noticed that in earlier episodes. He is always on a computer console, documenting with a Kino or spying on everyone for Young.
Team in gate room going back to the planet for supplies and checking for possible living conditions: Greer says that there is water east of the gate according to Lt. Scott but Eli says it is a waste of time and starts to make a comment about the military. Just seemed a bit out of the norm. Am I seeing more in to this?
Someone said earlier that because of the lack of excitement with the three returning back to Destiny that it meant they are clones. Though I think that is a stretch there is more to that over night stay than we are meant to know at this time. The third wheel comment by Eli probably means that Scott and Chloe made up especially when you see Chloe's reaction when she looks back at Scott.

Nicknames can be like that. They're fun when you're in a frat or with a group of friends. When you're amongst coworkers who consider you their junior despite what you do for them, nicknames become far less endearing. Case and point, young men calling older coworkers "Boss" or older workers calling younger workers "son."
Math Boy is a fun little term that allows people to not take Eli seriously. Eli has figured that out. And if you take it back to Chloe for a second, he may not be good looking enough for her anyway, BUT I think in Eli's mind he does also realize that Scott is considered worthy of respect while Eli only seems to have at most a few people who respect him. Young might be the only one so far because he's forcing Eli to act like an adult and I think he recognizes WHAT he's asked Eli to do. Others may simply see him as Young's errand boy rather than instrumental to Young's operation of the ship. I think Chloe respects his mind, but I don't think she respects him as a man yet. Everyone else is behind the curve right now. I think they still see Eli as E1 Eli, not as the man he is today.Last edited by Azzers; 07 May 2010, 08:37 PM.
