There was too much. It was about 3 episodes in one. That falls under flow problem. I would have given it a 6.5-7 if they would have cheaped on the presentation of everything. The scenes were all just so pretty.
Episode one - explore junkyard
Episode two - seedship rescue and stardive escape
Episode three - betrayal, attack new enemy

-Trusting the aliens so quickly

I gave it a 9. My only problem with it was that I didn't think the "flow" of the episode worked as well as it might have.
Just as an example, Telford's exposition about his time with the Ursini broke up the pace of the episode.
Still, it was a very good episode. I loved Rush's weird talk with Eli - I know he was trying to help, and goodness knows if anyone on the ship knows exactly what Eli is feeling, it is probably Rush, but he really lacks social graces, doesn't he? Still, there is something about honesty and telling it like it is that is really helpful in hard times.sigpic
Goodbye and Good Travels, Destiny!

I gave a generous 8. Very good episode. The first half was a bit slow, but then it got actions and development for Chloe. Telford coming back and interaction with aliens (well alien ships) with their own motives. I gave, or could give, episodes like pathogen sabotage, 3 or 4. This episode is up there with Awakening as favorites of the season.Currently watching: Dark Matter, 12 Monkeys, Doctor Who, Under the Dome, The Mentalist, The Messengers, The Last Ship, Elementary, Dominion, The Whispers, Extant, Olympus, Da Vinci's Demons, Vikings

7 is the best I can do and that's being somewhat generous. I've enjoyed a number of eps this first half more than this one.
I'm with others that the flow of this ep was problematic. Biggest problem was that the stuff with the shuttle was wasted screen time. They could have still had that in the story since it was a plot device, but while they are doing nothing over there, do something else on screen on Destiny...or have made that more interesting. Happy to see Telford back.IMO always implied.

I gave it an 8 but it probably have given it a 7. Not as good as the Trial and Error through Visitation episodes.
There didn't really feel like there was any meat to the episode. The space battle was cool, but we never saw any aliens - why do I care about this battle? The whole shuttle thing took ages considering it didn't build to anything. Plus Telfords return was rushed - nobody cared that he wasn't dead? Not even Young? Also the Ursini NEEDED to be shown this episode so we actually cared about their characters, it kind of crippled the whole story. Plus did anyone else find a bunch of drones swarming destiny to just be a little dull?
So yeh not the biggest fan of this episode, although the scene where the two ships dived into the sun was awesome.

The drones were a complete left field plot device. The writers might as well have thrown in the replicators, because that is pretty much what they described. They started with the smurfs, then the browns, and now they're to the berzerkers? wtf.
