far more plausible than the US seizing Atlantis like the official novels and not have it end in WW3 or a bureaucrat bought into review the programme deciding Atlantis should go back and everyone agreeing to it, especially when her reasons are for exploration and protecting the Pegasus galaxy residence and attacking Wraith which could be achieve better by using 304s, which we can fully repair ourselves and uses power sources we can easily replenish and contain no surprises.
Todd managing to set up a self destruct why helping Mackay out on a project could turn the idea into a plausible one,
, he conniving enough and probably desperate enough (starvation can cause that), Rodney arrogant enough to let his guard down.
For example using the idea from Atlantis rising, Todd giving Rodney the idea for writing his encryption programme in a unknown language to help protect Atlantis systems from the Lucian alliance spies, could be adapted so that Todd writes the programme and helps to install, in the process he find a old ancient self destruct system for Atlantis which he modifies for his own purposes.
The idea that anyone in the right mind would allow Atlantis to leave earth is just to implausible for me. If Atlantis ever go back to the Pegasus galaxy it would have to be the very last option available.
Another option requiring a lot more set up story wise, would be Atlantis having to be use to mount a rescue opt using wormhole drive as no other vessel is fast enough to get there but then again a lot of lives would have to be at risk to make it worth while.
One option I always consider is a coup d'etat by the team with Todd help and they Hijack Atlantis and take it to the Pegasus Galaxy.
But Earth would never give up a Atlantis willingly never.
