amalthiaI decided to write down my initial reactions for this episode before I read anyone's LJ. :) Everything besides the OMG what a good episode is behind the cut
I have to say the second half of season 2 is really really good. I loved this episode. I can't believe the writers had me guessing the entire episode.
I really thought Laden? (think that's how his name is spelled) had tricked the SGA team (which he did) but omg I was completely fooled. I thought he was going to shoot Sheppard, it didn't for a second cross my mind that he really did have a Coup planned. I need to find out who wrote this episode. I was kind of reading during the credits and wasn't paying attention at the beginning like I should have been.
this was a completely satisfying episode. I don't care what plot holes other people find watching it, I enjoyed the character interaction, the twisty plot, loved Weir's frustration in the control room when she thought Cowen's men were on their way to kill Sheppard. I really love Sheppard and Weir's conversations at the end of these episodes...Glad I stayed up to watch. :)
I'll probably remember more good stuff as I read through everyone else's reactions.
Did I mention I loved when Sheppard woke up tied to the chair??? I'm weird. OH and the conversation with Lorne in the cell was hilarious. Loved Rodney's confusion when he woke up. I need to write prison fics like this. (though not sure if this counts as a prison story, they were only prisoners for about an hour or less?)

:XD Now I'm gonna do some squeeing in my LJ!
