Rewatch: The Siege - Part 3 (Start of S2!!)

[twinsarein.livejournal.com]

Once again the self-destruct button has been activated and people all over the city seem to be falling at the hands of the Wraith, colonel Everett, Teyla and now also Ford, who falls into the water. Sheppard is the only hope, he's on a suicide mission to nuke one of the two remaining hive ships. Just about to launch the bomb, he gets a message that he needs to decloak. The Daedalus has arrived and the ship is equipped with powerful equipment from the Asgard, including beaming technology. Its commander, Colonel Steven Caldwell, beams Sheppard aboard before the nuke goes off. By beaming a nuke into the last remaining hive ship, Atlantis seems saved. Then Zelenka detects 12 more hive ships on their way. Meanwhile Ford has been found. He should be dead, but Beckett finds out he received an overdose of Wraith enzyme. He's now addicted to it and seems remarkably strong.  [Poll #1788486]

Yikes, they found Ford - outside Atlantis, face down in the water. The Daedalus comes in handy again, and beams him to Dr. Beckett. Poor Ford.

Poor Rodney, too. He's never going to get to sleep again. Twelve hive ships heading for Atlantis. Oooo, John is getting fed up with the Wraith always having the upper hand. They are going to them. Hee. Going to kick some Wraith butt.

Eeps - Ford goes to Elizabeth's office? Declares he's fine? With one eye completely black? Not good. And not a good sign of things to come.

Yay! The daedalus has destroyed to hive ships without a sustaining a hit themselves. Not good after that. At least they got away.

Yikes, Ford goes ballistic on poor Dr. Beckett. If Teyla hadn't been there to talk him down... Only Ford really is gone. Man, he doesn't/can't see how badly he's being affected. Beckett is certainly seeing quite a bit of excitement.

Okay, I love this plan the team came up with. What I liked about it best, was that everyone contributed to it. John came up the the original thought, Rodney improved on it by coming up with the cloaking idea, Raydek thought of the jumpers and helped keep Rodney thinking, Teyla can help by 'pushing' the Wraith, and the Colonel has the ship to help protect people. Elizabeth asked the important questions to really solidify it all. Amazing teamwork. I loved really watching it in action.
