The grappling hook idea doesn’t work so they try a third plan, also suggested by Keller. It's based on an old bar trick. It involves some planks balanced on one another in mid-air. All that does is end up injuring Carter; she breaks a leg in the fall. Of course, the fall destabilizes the room more and eventually it falls, blocking off their exit. Keller ends up dangling over an abyss at the end of the rope with only McKay holding her up. That’s when they find the other way out.
It was a boring episode, a time filler that didn’t reveal to us anything we didn’t already know about any of these characters. It seemed to be about Keller proving herself again, much as she had to do in an episode with Teyla earlier in the season.
I can’t tell if this coming Friday’s episode will have the whole crew together or not. Regardless, it looks like a killer show; Teal’c and Ronon will be going at each other and Wraith. Sounds cool.

Hello Mr. Hunter:
I must say that I respectfully disagree with you that these two episodes were boring...personally, I am getting tired of every episode being about the war with the replicators and the wraith...it was rather refreshing to see that they are finally developing the characters...THAT was one of the reasons which made Stargate SG-1 so terrific!
Have a Very Stargate Day! :-))

As always, thank you for reading.
I do appreciate the character development for the fourth season. Obviously, I like the direction they are going with Ronon. Season Five should be interesting, too. They've got a few new characters to develop and still keep the team cohesive. Should be fun.
And SG-1 was the best!

I also enjoyed the character development in these two episodes. I'm certainly eager to see next weeks episode with Teal'c, I miss the SG1 crew. I'm also eagerly awaiting The Ark of Truth movie... It looks so good
