    Medical inconsistencies

    I really, really enjoyed this episode a lot. Up until the last 10 minutes or so, when it all stopped making any sense.

    How is it, after they were being blocked in the previous episode, the stones are suddenly working just in time to resolve this episode?

    Where did they get the nasal oxygen tubes?

    Couldn't they have at least TRIED to keep the surgical area sanitary? (Ie: minimize the number of people)

    Why wasn't Rush screaming in agony at the GAPING HOLE IN HIS CHEST WITH A TUBE STUFFED INTO IT when he woke up momentarily?



    Urgh. Up until the end it was a really terrific episode, I hardly even realized that it had been nearly an hour. The 'resolution' of the revolt was pretty underwhelming too.

    Hopefully the division story doesn't just end like this.

    They took some medical supplies with them, we know that. And remember, the stones aren't working perfectly now; the connection cuts out. As for why Rush wasn't screaming... TJ said there was a local anesthetic applied, so he wouldn't have felt anything.

            We don't know to what extent they tried to make the area as sterile as they could before the surgery started, so it's entirely possible that everyone there scrubbed in as best they could.

            TJ obviously brought some medical stuff with her and it wouldn't be implausible to think that there were medical supplies brought through the gate when they first came aboard.

            No idea what the effect of the venom is on humans. Perhaps, despite being awake, he still wouldn't feel pain.

            There are lots of unanswered questions about the stones and no one has a clear understanding of how they worked.
            I'm not an actor. I just play one on TV.

              Syfy is exempt from consistency and logic now?

              Oh and no, it's not. It's a show about human beings and survival. 2 kinds of aliens in 3 episodes out of 12 is hardly "about aliens".

                Also, have you seen the condition hospital ERs are in? Take one glance at that and you'd think that those rooms were startingly unsterile.

                  I never try to make sense of a sci-fi show.

                      What do you expect them to do, exactly? They didn't have much time.

                          I'm not complaining Just pointing out that the medical bay on Desinty looks about as clean and sterile as an ER does, which is a good thing.

                              I liked TJ's line. "*smirk* Welcome to Destiny." Even better was the matter-of-factness about it
