Be All My Sins Remember'd

I have to squee a little about Be All My Sins Remember'd

Fran! Oh, Fran. This is one of the best uses of a guest character ever.

I would dearly have loved more exploration of the Fran, Radek and Rodney dynamic.

If there are stories out there, hook me up with them, pretty please.

And then we had

the tag and the slow reveal of… RepliElizabeth!

Did anyone else jump up from their couch with a little fistpump of glee? Seriously, because… RepliElizabeth!

Oh, I liked Fran! I did find one story about her. Nanny by slybrarian.

And RepliWeir was such an intriguing concept. I wish her story had been better developed. They could have gone so many places with her.

Thank you for the link. I don't think I've read that yet!

I loved the Replicator!Fran and I suspect that her "personality" and dedication to her role in the episode had something to do with Rodney's imprinting on her. I also liked her as Replicator!Elizabeth. It's a shame that there were only a handful of alien characters that were developed to any extent at all on Atlantis.

This was a very good episode which also allowed Carter to be a commander. They didn't let her do much either.

I too, would have loved to seen more of both of these characters.

...something to do with Rodney's imprinting on her

I love this idea so much!

Wow, until this minute, it hadn't occurred to me that original Elizabeth was dead and that the Elizabeth in the ship was a replicant. I just thought that the "reports of her death were exaggerated". I thought she had taken over leadership of a splinter faction of replicators. Did I miss something that clued you in?

I see absolutely why it's can't be interpreted this way. We don't really know.
I referred to her as RepliElizabeth only because we know she has nanites and can interface with replicator programing.

So many questions, so few answers!

I would have loved to see a story arc including the leather-clad leader of the rebelling replicators - Elizabeth Weir. *g*

Too bad they didn't manage to write something good enough to get Torri Higginson back on board after that one scene.
