twinsarein.livejournal.comUnbelievable. After almost two years, we are at the last episode of the series. It's been quite journey. I just want to thank everyone who's watched and participated, especially helenkacan. I've enjoyed every moment, and I hope you have too. Now, without further ado, the episode:
In the series finally, the Atlantis team is contacted by none other than their old friend Todd the Wraith who tells them an underling has marooned him on a planet and taken over the Wraith hive ship. As if that weren't bad enough, the hive ship is now powered by a ZPM and the super-energy source is transforming the craft into an invincible weapon. While those on Atlantis try to destroy the ship, it jumps to hyperspace and has a very clear destination in mind: Earth. Sheppard is recalled home to man their best defense while Teyla, Ronon and McKay find themselves battling the Wraith from within their ship. In the end, Atlantis must travel to Earth for the final battle. Written by garykmcd

Rewatch: Vegas
Apr. 19th, 2013 10:00 pmtwinsarein.livejournal.comIn an alternate universe, Detective John Sheppard is with the Las Vegas Police Department and begins to investigate a strange series of murders. This Sheppard is a bit down on his luck, over-promoted and barely getting by. What Sheppard is dealing with is a Wraith who has made it to Earth and is building a device to send out a signal of some sort. Of course, he has no idea what a Wraith is but a senior member of the Atlantis expedition, Rodney McKay, decides to take Sheppard into their confidence and tell him about the Pegasus galaxy and their fear that the Wraith is trying to send out a signal with Earth's location. While they succeed, they may have opened a rift with other parallel universes. This Dr. McKay, who is cool and smooth, actually visited Atlantis in another dimension once and wonders what may now happen there. Written by garykmcd

Rewatch: Identity
Apr. 12th, 2013 10:03 pmtwinsarein.livejournal.comWhen Dr. Jennifer Keller begins to act strangely - she doesn't know her way around the ship and doesn't recognize colleagues - it's pretty obvious that something is very wrong. In fact, her body has been taken over by another woman, Neeva Casol, who describes herself as a thief. She's not quite sure what's happened but she and two others were in the process of stealing ancient relics when she picked up a device and poof!, she suddenly appears in Jennifer's body. She leads Sheppard, McKay and others to the planet in question to see if they can reverse the situation. Jennifer meanwhile is now in Neeva Casol's body and she is about to be executed by the locals.

They're surprised to find the Wraith crew in stasis and a message from Todd telling them that Dr. Keller's retrovirus has had an unexpected side effect on them. To protect themselves, they've all entered stasis and returned to Atlantis hoping to get help. Some on the team think they should just leave them in statis and be done with them but a malfunction on the hive ship releases the remaining crew who have been cannibalizing one another for food.

He welcomes Ambassador Shen Xiaoyi who is there to undertake the evaluation but it soon becomes apparent that she has her eye on his job. Woolsey meets a new arrival, Vanessa Conrad, who seems to have good advice for him on how to deal with his current situation. Meanwhile, Sheppard accompanies two scientists on an off-world mission but is kidnapped by an old foe - none other than Acastus Kolya who claims to have escaped death. Back on Atlantis, McKay is egged on by Zalenka to conduct a search of the ocean floor for anything that might be of interest. They do find a cylindrical tube that presents Woolsey with a major dilemma. It also proves to be the key to what is going on around them. Written by garykmcd

Mar. 15th, 2013 10:06 pmtwinsarein.livejournal.comWhen the power is shut down and most of the inhabitants are locked out of key controls, it is apparent that Atlantis has been taken over by an off-world group, soon identified as Michael and his hybrids. He is after Teyla's newborn child who is key in his quest to gain control of the Pegasus galaxy. While Sheppard and McKay try to get their hands on a jumper to launch an attack, Ronan and others who were taken prisoner by Michael during his initial invasion launch reprisals of their own. When Teyla manages to get away and hide, Michael gives her a simple choice: surrender herself and her child to him or he will use the city's self-destruct mechanism to kill everyone.

Rewatch: Inquisition
Mar. 8th, 2013 10:03 pmtwinsarein.livejournal.comSheppard and his team are lured to a planet and are soon put on trial for crimes against the people of the Pegasus galaxy. In flashbacks, the three judge tribunal recounts the indictment against them including the re-awakening of the Wraith and the various missions where at least a few, if not more, innocent bystanders were killed. Sheppard does his best to argue that on balance, fewer were killed by their presence than would have been the case if they had never been there. A least one of the judges is clearly determined to find them guilty while a second seems far more sympathetic. It's left to Richard Woolsey, who has now joined them, to plead the rest of their case. A lawyer by profession, Richard clearly knows how the game is played and focuses on that third judge. Written by garykmcd

Rewatch: Outsiders
Mar. 1st, 2013 10:09 pmtwinsarein.livejournal.comSheppard and his team pay a surprise visit to Dr. Carson Beckett who is providing medical services in a small village. There are many refugees there, fleeing Wraith culling and the Wraith themselves are there but not feeding on anyone. It seems the refugees are all infected with the Hoff virus and any attempt at feeding will kill them. The residents themselves are divided on the fate of the refugees with some wanting to offer them protection and another faction wanting to turn them over to the Wraith in return for being left alone. The team's attempt to take the refugees off planet and back to Atlantis inevitably leads to a conflict with the Wraith. Written by garykmcd
