yep, that's a justifiable losing it, all right

Its also justifiable for Young using the headbutt of doom. And I was just starting to trust Rush

God i cant wait to find out why Young starts supporting Rush after he tells him the destination of the ship.

Im actually looking forward to the 11 page confession. These two guys fighting is so entertaining. They are what made Life a great episode instead of a meh one. Im probably most excited about this episode out of all the season 2 eps (beside the finale).

Somehow I expect this to be "The Fifth Race" of Universe.

I would have gone ballastic too if someone was controlling the ship and driving us away from home.

Young: Are you steering us home?
Rush: Well...at maximum speed we'll reach Earth in 25 million years, not including refueling stops.

Young should know that they will not make it back home with Destiny, not in the crew lifetime... so why not keep going...

We’ve been deluged with mixes! Awakening yesterday, Malice today, and The Greater Good tomorrow. [...]

I think he does, that was a fictional line, "if" the crew ever gets home it will be through a Stargate...somehow

Newest episode description for "The Greater Good" 2x07 *spoiler heavy*

Spoiler:

Dr. Rush and Col. Young are stranded aboard an alien ship.

Destiny comes upon a heavily damaged ship floating in space. Dr. Rush suggests that the alien vessel be explored in the hopes of salvaging any worthwhile data or technology. Without a shuttle, Rush and Col. Young must make a dangerous space-suited expedition to the derelict ship. Once safely aboard, they discover that the ship contains empty pods similar to those they encountered on the seed ship. As Dr. Rush gets the life support and power running, the ship's engines suddenly engage, propelling it away from Destiny. With the power now depleted the ships drift helplessly apart.

Unwilling to tell everyone that he has partial control of The Destiny, Rush claims he has been working on a program to manually fire Destiny's thrusters. Because of the complexity of the program he suggests Dr. Amanda Perry be brought on board via the communication stones to help. Once aboard, Rush covertly informs her of his success with Destiny's master code and directs her to the bridge. With Rush's help, Perry is able to steer Destiny back to the damaged ship. But when Eli unearths their plan, the big secret is revealed much to Rush's chagrin – especially when Young finds out.
