QUOTE(IndyJan @ Jul 31st 2005, 10:13 PM) With a Goa'uld you shoot the symbiote and they usually die. With the Wraith, you can shoot and shoot and not take them out. Yeah, thats true but we haven't seen a Wraith take a head shot yet. That might take him out in one shot. |

A Goa'uld with a wraith host, what a scary concept.
Sounds like a good episode |

I recall seeing one of the team shoot one of the Wraith in the head quite a few times and he still got up. |

they know about that vaccine that makes wraith unable to eat people. and it also killed the wraith that tried it. y not just go do some testing, adn figure out how that toxin is created, or how the wraith was killed by it. then instead of p90's... go around with dart guns or sumthing...

That vaccine only worked in 50% of the population, the other 50% died from it's side effects. That's why the Atloantis team didnt use it. |

Well, there must be a reason for that. Could be something to do with the physiology, or maybe they have the Ancient Gene, which helps them accept the drug.
It would be good if they did some sort of tests to find why pepole's bodies accepted it and why some didn't. |

the other problem is that if the wraith were sorta like humans.... then something like a virus that can kill wraith could probably kill humans.....
*sigh, if only there was a way to conatain a replicator in a shield buble, and package it over to atlantis to let lose against the wraith..... wraith dont ahve inter-galactic hyper drives...and since they regenerate, it will be a a touph fight... and they have self destruct written over almost everything they have created.... while their buzy steal all of the galaxies ancient tech and make a run back home  |

I would assume from the article that went with it that they just talked to Landry. Its says they talk to the SGC on a weekly timeline.
QUOTE When a beacon is set off alerting the Wraith to Atlantis's presence, suspicion is thrown on a newcomer from Earth. NEWS AND SPOILERS (Newest information is added to the bottom) # Guest characters include Dr. Alison Seagle, Colonel Steven Caldwell (Mitch Pileggi), and Dr. Radek Zelenka (David Nykl). # The city of Atlantis has laid hidden from the Wraith for months, but all of that may be about to change. Rodney McKay introduces Colonel Sheppard to Dr. Alison Seagle, a scientist who has just arrived on Atlantis from Earth (via the Daedalus, now making regular trips between Earth and the Pegasus Galaxy). Seagle is joining McKay's team, and Sheppard irritates McKay by flirting with her. The Atlantis base is now making weekly contact with Stargate Command on Earth, dialing in to relay updated information. Meanwhile, Teyla asks Dr. Beckett to join her in a trip to the mainland. She is greatly concerned about her old Athosian friend Charin, who apparently needs medical attention. The team is now able to hide the city of Atlantis with a massive cloaking device, but someone has set off a beacon. The Wraith have been alerted, and two Wraith Cruisers are detected moving toward the planet by long-range sensors. Though Sheppard once had an affinity for Dr. Seagle, he now has reason to treat her with an air of suspicion. Her strange behavior even causes McKay to suspect that she has betrayed them. (GateWorld news report) # As previously reported, the Atlantis team scrambles to protect the lost city of the Ancients once again when someone among them apparently alerts the Wraith to their presence (story). Wraith ships are on the way, and some suspect that a scientist who has just arrived from Earth, Dr. Allison Seagle, may be the culprit. But the enemy within is no mere Wraith sympathizer: A Goa'uld has infiltrated the base. In addition to the Wraith ships now en route, a bomb has been set to detonate, forcing Sheppard and his team to race against the clock and determine who is human and who is under Goa'uld control. (GateWorld news report) # Actress Jaime Ray Newman ("Lt. Laura Cadman" in "Duet") will return for a second episode, she reported in an interview. From her description, it sounds like "Critical Mass" -- and it sounds like the writers may have rewritten the role of Dr. Allison Seagle as Lt. Cadman. "Cadman comes back to help find a bomb on board the ship [sic]. She is also a suspected, of course by McKay, of planting the bomb. I was so complimented that they wanted me back. You see the burgeoning romance with Beckett as well, and how much it frustrates McKay. I'd love to do future episodes with the Atlantis crew!" (Actress Jaime Ray Newman, in an interview with D?lirium) |

I recall a red one and sometimes a white one, though Hammond had all his personal stuff just dialed into the red one.

Ah...very good. Yes. That is the one I was thinking of too Ha'tak.
Also once I remember zooming in on the red phone once on a dvd to see what was written on the speed dial tabs. Pathetic I know but I am a die-hard fan.  |

QUOTE(ha'tak @ Oct 12th 2005, 7:18 PM) I did the same thing now I dont feel as obsessed Nope. Nothing wrong with it Ha'tak. In "The Fifth Race" I zoomed in and slow motioned the instructions that Jack came up with to fix the gate where Carter and Teal'c were roasting in the sun. Try it. It is amazing the details on that map when it would never be seen on the show on the tv. They did not need to do it but they did it. That is how much they care about Stargate. It is our job to find those gems hidden all around. |

Just want to make note that Atlantis didn't actually have a cloak generator installed....They tied the shield grid into a puddle jumpers cloaking device.
McKay: "We cloak it." Zalinka: "Yes, yes. The puddle jumpers have cloaking technology which hides them to the naked eye and wraith scans. If we simply remove one of the cloak generators from the puddle jumper-" McKay: "I wouldn't say simply, but yes, by interfacing a jumpers stealth mode generator with the city shield we should be able to rendr the city invisibile." |
