I knew some of the plot elements but was totally thrown for a loop by the Adria reveal, and that she implanted Vala's dream. I'd remembered the only other time we'd seen one of Vala's dreams was Adria's conception, but it was only a peripheral thought.
From the commentary, I like that the writers considered the librarian the real McCoy in their first encounter, replaced when he conveniently escapes initial capture. I wish they'd replaced the continuity eye change with the great joke about Vala's other dream. It would've been a perfect Stargate moment to inject a OMG scene with a brief natural comedy beat, both coming out of left field. But at least it's on the deleted scenes!
I'm guessing the riddle Adria guessed was due to the Ori being the cause of/expert in being contagion-bearers, but does that mean she was essential to the quest?
I was thrilled they brought Moros back as Merlin in the flesh, though am a bit surprised this isn't mentioned except for the briefest thing I didn't catch for ages from Pegasus Project.
How did Adria defeat the no-Ori-allowed into Merlin's chamber? Oh wait, is it because Merlin's now dead and on the previous planet?
Finally, I think the conclusion would've been stronger with just Adria standing over a defeated Daniel on the planet, the Stargate having just turned off. I'm guessing they inserted the subsequent scenes so you wouldn't think it'd be immediately continued. (I haven't seen the rest of season 10 yet, though I know Daniel returns priorized 3 episodes later.)
