    I got it from my cousins there yesturday. Have to say I quite enjoyed it. It be interesting to see if this and the events from Trinity will make McKay a "better person"

    I thought the
    sam hallucination was fantasticly done. The way even as a hallucination she wouldn't be topless for him. Had me in stiches, poor Mckay lol

    It was a great great episode for Hewlett. Fantastic acting. Some of the scenes with Tapping were great too.

    The one thing I didn't really like was
    the pilot sacrificing himself to save McKay... It would have been more realistic if he was killed in the crash.

    Great episode, though. Isn't it about time they started some sort of story arc, though?

    Amanda tapping with very little clothes on in the water!! Am I the only person who saw this? The rest was Ok too, as far as adding to the story arc, other than the puddle jumper can go under water I didnt really spot anything else, granted I was distracted...see first sentence :)

    Why did he do that? Surely the door could have been closed from the side they were on?

    Enjoyed this one, being a big McKay fan. David Hewlitt can act damn well when he's called to and it really showed here. I loved the way he got caught up in the hallucination,arguing with himself, seeing Carter refuse to undress, and - in a sweet way - his subconscious knowledge that his friends were good enough and cared enough to rescue him. Awww :)

    OK, so it didn't add anything to the arc and I prefered "Critical Mass" but, so far, it's obeying the SG rule of having a superior second half of a season.

    Medicore at best. David Hewlitt was good through it but I thought Tapping was quite wooden. The conversation between Shepard and Weir in the jumper bay was awful aswell.

    It wasnt working from the inside.

    Tái idir dhá chomairle faoi sin.

    When I read a mild spoiler ages ago I thought it would be a great episode and while it was great, I just feel it could have been better.

    Rodney was great but I'm not sure about this new side of his that is surfacing.
    I think it's destroying the qualities in him that we all love so much.
    The epidose was very entertaining but not as gripping as the likes of 'Critical Mass' but like I said about Stronghold, the writers are taking alot of new approaches to avoid predictable clíched outcomes, i.e.what the jumper pilot did...I wouldn't have predicted that in a million years and I think was done well enough to not be criticised.

    The character interaction was very good and some high points of the episode included the absence of Teyla and Ronan.

    And also note worthy...I never could have imagined Carter having sex appeal, especially after having a baby but there ya go...cleavage and all! I didn't even realise that she had breasts untill now.
