I'm going to be totally honest...

This is simplifying a lot, but...

Okay, so when Mike and the other Wraiths-turned-human confronted Lathon in the woods? I totally thought it was going to be a we're human looking but we still act like Wraith when one of our own pisses us off type of thing. Because it's not like they're loyal to one another. We've seen that enough. And you know what? I think that storyline would've been cooler than the we've stopped taking the medicine and remember thing. Because then they would've been addressing the issue that even though they look human, they still are innately Wraith, and now what do the Altanteans do with them and they're messed up social moralities? Or something like that.

Also, Beckett was a complete idiot the entire episode.

Also, also, I have no problem with them killing off the Wraith-turned-humans. I'm sorry. They're still Wraith, they're still a threat, and it's still war. Probably not everyone's opinion, but eh. *shrugs* The Wraith are pretty evil, and I don't think anyone comes out smellin' like roses in war.

I found it hard to see what was happening in this episode because of the giant gaping plot holes obscuring it.

I think that they should have taken the fact that, you know, Sheppard destroyed the friggin' hyperdrive on the Wraith ship and made this episode into a trying-to-figure-out-how-to-get-home thing rather than a fifty-different-badly-fleshed-out-plots thing.

And I agree about Beckett. He's my woobie, but seriously, going walkabout by himself in a potentially hostile/dangerous area without at least one bloody escort... oy. Although that's probably a problem with the writers than the actual character. And what was up with the "He's barely breathing... oh wait, he's fine now."? I wanna see a plot where Carson gets injured and the others have to worry and take care of him, damnit! *Stamps foot*

OK, contrary to what this may seem like, I did actually like this episode. I just love the Atlantis characters too damn much to hate this show. And I did love Caldwell snarking to Woolsey. :D

Oooo, trying to get home would've been a much better plot thread than the stupid wraith-turned-human.

I wanna see a plot where Carson gets injured and the others have to worry and take care of him, damnit! *Stamps foot* *laughs* that'd probably only happen in fanfic:)
