Oh, Ronon. How I love thee.

"Never gets old."

Make Pie Guy touch all the eggs. The ones that don't turn into chickens, you know they're kosher.

Then, of course, you could cook the chickens and eat them, except if you served them to Pie Guy his first bite would turn them into an omelette.

Okay--I have a PD backlog on my TiVo, but he has aging powers as well as killing ones? I mean, that's what freshening the fruit implies, or is the position that the freshest a fruit can taste is before it leaves the plant? And therefore it just doesn't translate to poultry?

I really liked this week's SGA as it played with the "Memento" concept in fun ways. Just LOVED Rodney writing on his arms and hands.

ita, not aging powers, just undeading. The freshening that been shown is just making a rotted fruit not rotted. "Alive again", as the recipe in the online comic says.

SGA: my new plan is recording and reading here for a tidbit of enjoyment, and I rather enjoyed that ep. Although with everyone knowing there was oncoming amnesia, why they couldn't have shown the characters being smart and at least have more of them creating reminders for themselves (or Carter issuing a mass-produced pamphlet that they could read and disregard). But, logic aside, I kinda enjoyed it. I'm curious, was Lorne and the other soldiers able to hang onto their last command because of the stims (which, huh?), or was it some slanted commentary on military personnel?

It was the stims that had them hold on to that last bit, Teyla pointed out that it was the medication helping them remember it when she was in the brig. I think it was a combination of the stims and the repetition of rounding up people that helped them remember that one thing.

I didn't like the Katie aspect of the story. It seems like she was pretty much forgotten and then when Sam came aboard the writers remembered about her and had McKay mention her so they could use that as a reason he wasn't trying to hit on her all the time (because that would be really weird since she's in command) and simple character growth wasn't enough. Then, for this episode, it felt like they remembered -- Wait! Rodney has a girlfriend! We have to show her!

Well, and they only have so much money to hire repeating guest stars....

I have no clue who Katie was, but that may be due to the eyerolling that had me skipping a bunch of the last couple of seasons.

also, weird moment at the end when Shep is in the infirmary recovering and he's remembering. Teyla says something about more people would have died, mentions McKay, and Sheps says "Who's McKay?"? Was that meant to be funny, because if I heard right, it seemed that they just ended that storyline with Shep having no memory of him.

I heard "How's McKay?" As in, upon hearing that people had died, that's who he immediately started worrying about. (To be fair, Teyla and Ronon were right in front of him.)

I heard, "Where's McKay?" though I was confused by the urgency. I mean, slashy goodness, of course, but in the framework of the show, I couldn't figure out why he'd be worried particularly about Rodney - but, OK, if Teyla and Ronon were there, then... "Where's McKay?" makes more sense. I was kind of half watching.
