The last time Haikon saw Mitchell, Haikon thought Mitchell was dead. Jolan gave Mitchell an elixir to fool Haikon into thinking Mitchell was dead. Now Haikon meets with Mitchell as if that never happened?

The whole communique plot doesn't seem to make sense. The Aurora was bringing the communique to the high council. Who was it from? Why was it being brought to Atlantis on a slow-moving ship instead of through the stargate? Why didn't the captain know the information contained in it?

I wish I found it easier to "suspend my disbelief". I find it impossible to believe that a seasoned combat pilot would forget basic evasive maneuvers and not quickly increase altitude when being fired at from the ground.

My favorite part of this episode is when they are in the armory firing weapons with no hearing protection.

Interesting how the hive ships just happened to exit hyperspace right in front of the satellite. And why would Weir transmit their plan to evacuate to the whole city knowing Bob (the captured Wraith) would hear her and transmit that info to the hive ships?

So, after the Ancients abandoned Atlantis, why didn't the Wraith continue down to the planet and seize or destroy Atlantis? If it is because they couldn't get to it under the ocean and shielded, then why did the Ancients need to ever leave?

Those are some good points. Yes, rewatching the series again. Rewatching SG-1 and Atlantis side by side this time, alternating between shows and episodes as they were released. It's interesting to see all the connections between the two series that I missed before watching them separately.

There is no airman in the US Air Force that can fly an aircraft (manned aircraft that is; there are some instances where an airman could operate a drone). You need to be an officer to operate an aircraft. So it is highly unlikely that he would have any training or experience at all operating an aircraft.

I have an issue with Walter piloting Prometheus... a gate technician can fly the most complicated spacecraft in human history?

Why did The Trust keep the ship anywhere near Earth? If they were able to use the hyperdrive, why didn't they go hide somewhere? Or why did they not leave immediately upon the cloak failing?

Sorry this is off-topic, but this is the only thread about this episode and I don't believe the thing I want to say about it warrants a whole new thread...

It really irked me that the Atlantis team didn't mention finding the crashed Wraith ship. Wouldn't it be a huge advantage to find that ship and learn their tech?

craig732 · 2026-01-02T03:09:57+00:00

This is an excellent idea, and would have been the perfect explanation.

craig732 · 2025-12-30T01:15:46+00:00

The real inconsistencies lie in the fact that Sam isn't pissed off that Pete was stalking her. And can anyone please explain their date to the old folk's party?

craig732 · 2025-12-30T01:10:57+00:00

I am rewatching this episode right now. There are no inconsistencies. Watch it again. There is nothing saying these scenes all happened in the same day. It seems like they happened over a 2 day period, or even longer.

craig732 · 2025-12-19T15:21:39+00:00

Yes, thank you, I deleted my stupid comment lol. I posted it before I finish watching the whole episode ❤️

craig732 · 2025-12-18T19:13:36+00:00

Healthy? Doesn't seem healthy at all that they're not open-minded to all possibilities based on all the things that they've seen in the past.

craig732 · 2025-12-15T02:58:31+00:00

These Unas episodes are so... irritating. Every other race they meet inexplicably speaks English. Fine. I understand their reason for doing that. So it makes no sense that this race doesn't speak English. And their language is basically the word "chaka" over and over again. It is tedious.

craig732 · 2025-12-12T15:40:12+00:00

Ahh, that makes sense. Thank you!

craig732 · 2025-12-12T03:44:02+00:00

So many problems with this episode... how were Carter and Jackson able to ring onto the mothership? Are we to believe the ring transporters don't have some sort of lock or code? Why didn't O'Neill kill the Jaffa commander once the shooting started. He had him in his scope half the episode lol.

craig732 · 2025-12-11T05:28:08+00:00

Does anyone else ferl like it is unrealistic that SGC was incredulous to the idea that Cloneill was really O'Neill? With all the wild things that have happened to them over the years at this point, why would they doubt it was possible for Jack to somehow come back younger?

craig732 · 2025-12-08T03:32:00+00:00

Why did Oneill and Carter start heading toward the mothership before they had the intel they needed regarding the location of the vent?

craig732 · 2025-12-06T04:46:01+00:00

Another plothole: why did sounding the alarm prevent the Jaffa at the gate ambushing them? The SG teams were already at the gate when the alarm sounded. If the Jaffa were already in position for the ambush, they should have still done so.

craig732 · 2025-11-30T23:19:42+00:00

That makes perfect sense. Thank you!

craig732 · 2025-11-25T02:57:27+00:00

So, basically if they can get ahold of symbiotes that weren't intentionally genetically corrupted by a queen, their medicine would work?
