The inhabitants of the city are forced to evacuate when a huge hurricane bears down on them. But things get even worse when the city is then captured by the Genii, forcing Sheppard to try and stay one step ahead when they capture Weir and McKay.

I liked the ep. And really felt for McKay - talk about finding yourself in the middle of something you know *nothing* about: interrogation.

I liked it too. Mckay and Dr Zolenski (that's probably not right) were really funny together. I liked the "you all think of me as some kind of superman" bit and getting Sheppard to do the two furtherest away stations.

Although it did seem a little petty that he was wasting time complaining about that when 70% of the planet's about to be covered by a killer storm.

Mckay just had a tiny wound on his arm, so they obviously didn't have to torture him much before he cracked!

Lt. Ford getting stuck without being able to help - LOL! I almost thought he was about to cry!

The Genii were still very cool, it's always fun to get an intelligent commander.

Waiting for the next part.

Pretty much enjoyed this Episode, I believe Altantis would be so much better if the story lines were much darker rather than touchy feely nicey nicey!!

The Genii commander was pretty good at the start but became a bit too over the top towards the end.

Mckay and co always enjoyable to watch, Shepard still needs a hair cut.

Oh and if you are going to end on a cliff hanger for crying out loud do not point a gun at one of the lead characters becuase we all know you aint gonna kill Mckay or Wier off!!!

You can see how it is going to end though, they will get the sympathy vote from the Genii girl (one who lost her dad) she will turn against the Genii commander and help return Atlantis to Wier and Co.

At least it is more exciting the SG1!!

yeah, she did seem overly concerned that he was killing everyone, but then she was less sympathetic towards Tayla! It would be more interesting if actually she didn't help them out.

Unfortunately, very true!

I'm glad we are having other villains other than the Wraith every week, but this doesn't seem good enough to be a two-parter. As already pointed out, the final episode script could be written by any of us already.

Wow...the Genii girl helped them out in the end...sure didn't look that way in 1.11....guess I should watch the episode again....

Seeing as 1.10 was a world exclusive for SKY One (UK) 1.11 has not aired yet so how would you know that ??

Maybe b/c it already aired in Canada.....and I downloaded it...something we all can do if we choose...so much for world exclusive...or maybe they just ment "your world"...I mean come on...I watched 1.15 this morning.

Dave · 17th December 2004, 02:00 AM

Me thinks Sky One is telling pork pies about the world exclusive!

I've not seen part two, but it is quite obvious that the girl is uncomfortable with some of the events taking place. But she still blames Teyla for the death of her father. If she could see that isn't so she can be turned.

This was a good episode, I enjoy everything about the storm and how the genii use it to try and capture the city. And I agree about Dr. Mckay, it was hilarious to see him trying to cope with everything that was happening.
