He got the crap beat out of him by the Wraith that was hiding on Atlantis.

A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much any other "genre" show that captures our fancy. Expect Adult Content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.
Yeah, that's it! I don't remember seeing him after that.

Beckett put him in a medically induced coma because of a subdurial hemtomia. Beckett couldn't take care of it at the time.

You think they forgot about him? Maybe he's tucked in a corner of the infirmary, sleeping away.

I am actually watching an episode of SG-1 that I've never seen before. AIFG!

Seriously. I feel a little bad that I was all, "Bates? Uh, he, uh... um. I don' remember what happened to him."

Jen, it's not your fault if the writers forgot him, too.

Can you see the writers' meeting where they suddenly remember? "Oh, crap. Er, how long can you leave someone in a coma on purpose?"

Maybe he went upstairs to get his skis.
I'm thinking that maybe they shipped him through the Stargate with other wounded. Beckett didn't sound like Bates's injury was something they could easily take care of on Atlantis (or maybe with everything going on).
