One of the darker episodes of SGA, the Michael arc certainly changed the tone of the series, it began with the moral ambiguity of changing a Wraith into a human with a retro virus and develops into a situation that haunts the people of Atlantis. This episode is the first we see of the dark dank places where Micheal's anger and rage bring horrors to life to unleash on his perceived wrong doers.
The lengths he is prepared to go to are hinted at here in the horrific way he discards human life in the course of his experiments. Finding the room full of decaying stinking bodies was truly a horrific scene, and one we've not seen the likes of in SGA, this added to the sense of disgust we can feel as viewers towards Michael. From now we can only wonder what depths he will sink to.
Connor Trineer really does a great job bringing this angry, yet lost character yearning to belong somewhere to life.
