What was up with the one reporter during Miller's pep talk who was dressed like Han Solo? Check it out, he's got the white shirt and black vest on. It's very distracting.

"Really, this whole episode is great, and if this is the sort of complexity I can look forward to in DS9, I’ll have my work cut out for me."

It was pretty obvious it was a trap. I wondered if he suspected she was banging Zajac (and having those photos at the end pretty much confirms that he did), and if he suspected Zajac's loyalty as well (with that mysterious press conference slated) so he probably thought she would tell him and that would weed out not…

That's Chicago for you

Interesting note about this episode is that it's the first episode with no graphic sex (those pictures aside, but that hardly counts) and the first episode that basically leaves Kane's disease out of the plot (within the confines of this episode … obviously the daughter subplot was set up through the context of his…

You may want to see him go down but just as important to that equation is who is going to take him down. Everyone on the show seems to be a greedy douchebag politician who wants what Kane has. He's just trying to hold them off. The only "good" characters are the reporter and maybe Emma. And they aren't exactly squeaky…

So Alexander decides not to be a Klingon warrior, SPOILERS, until DS9, where he decides to be a (bad) one.

Was the Duras sister kid thing forgotten by Generations or is there some potential Duras heir out there in the timeline that wasn't screwed over by J.J. Abrams?

Just get to DS9 already

I was totally expecting him to walk in on Skye messing up the test, and then saying the blood couldn't be extracted and he bluffed her. But then the writers couldn't use her secret as a source of tension.

I guess the Sixers were able to fix all their radios and vehicles after the EM pulse. It's not like the Sixers, having to survive on nothing but the essentials for 3 years, would know how to create insulated circuits or a chip fabricator like the colony has, right? I'd suggest they stole a bunch of chips during the…

So, Taylor goes from trying to frame Shannon as the spy in the previous ep, to calling him the only person he trusts in this one. OK

Zajac is going to bang Ross's hot wife, right?

When that Dragonfly landed on Mira's arm, I half expected it to transform into something. It was visually similar to Laserbeak landing on Megatron or Soundwave's arm. I was thinking it may have been a little robot dragonfly with a camera and all that, but nope, it's just a real one with a microchip attached to its leg…

I think he's alluding to the idea that a seeming vital and main character can be killed off unexpectedly.

Yeah, the Stargate on its own needed 7 symbols to activate a gate (8 symbols for another galaxy, 9 for Destiny). But it's kind of like a rotary telephone

Given that part of the son's lab seemed to include some sort of laser, it's probably an energy frequency deal that either reverses the flow of the gate or makes it two-way. Eventually they'll figure out how to erect large circular portals that can access the gateway at anytime using a specific 7-digit code.

The idea of making a two-way portal makes sense, though. It explains the rock drawings that I think Shannon didn't even know about, so Taylor didn't have to mention them. But the depiction of him destroying his son's lab was pretty cheesy.

Also, two Fox shows in one night bringing a tuning fork into the plot. Gotta love sweeps!

I suspected the multiple personality angle once she started making excuses for her "boyfriend." They way she said he couldn't keep the porn at "his place" seemed too odd, like he was some cool older guy of teenage girl fantasies rather than a kid hiding it from his parents. I don't know if the writers intended that as…
