Another filler episode having mostly nothing to do with destiny's main story. If you add up all the episodes in this series that have nothing to do with destiny's main mission and add up those that are about the main mission you'll find the vast majority of episodes in this series have nothing to do with destiny's mission. So what was the point of this series, really? Overall good episode but once again it's just filler. I strongly feel that the show creators missed the mark with SGU. This show could've been really awesome if it had been done right. This episode, along with many others in this series, would have been much better as part of a different spin off series.

Some good, some bad, like most episodes.

Wray. Again she's annoyingly arrogant at times. Treating Greer like he's some little kid. "Yeah, I get it. Your the perfect soldier." He's a marine master sergeant, have some respect.

"I think it's some kind of hologram", she says right before putting her hand through some kind of energy of plasma field around a bomb. Really? What's you're background again? Politics?!

"We're going to have to do this ourselves", she says in a calm and cool manner. Then goes in a frantic panic when she feels wires. Very poorly edited/acted.

It was noted that the bodies they're in are already dead because of the radiation, and they were also told which wire not to pull. But then they decide to just wait for it to blow to give most people the time to run away?

Greer often seems over-acted, but I think he did alright this episode.

TJ. Throughout the series I find her a depressing character, mostly playing victim, seemingly only interested in looking pretty but having the opposite effect. But in this episode all of a sudden she's all fun and smiles with the Lucian Alliance dude, being very supportive of him in front of the colonel, "I believe he's telling the truth.". (I actually needed a moment to register it all because it was like looking at a completely new character.) What made me smile was the colonel actually making note of that, "Oh, I know you do", and the hurtful look TJ gave him after he said that... Back to playing victim again.
