I'm glad it's not so bad in retrospect! Like I said, I really enjoyed it, for a lot of the little moments and looks and Carson, and even though I was going nooooooo~ at Michael getting at Teyla, her baby isn't a monster baby yet.
And, oh, RODNEY! I know! His last words to Carson, his manic refusal to say goodbye, his offers of setting Carson up fishing in the highlands... to be honest, the last scene made me cry. Which SGA almost never does, and I feel like a total wimp, but - but - CARSON! And I loved Rodney being the one to come talk to him, and the way he had to break the news about - well, everything. By the way? You're not Carson. And by the way? Carson is actually dead. And, no, you can't speak to Elizabeth, because she's dead. (I was imagining Carson going "...I think I need to see Heightmeyer now", and Rodney's "..." reply, at which Carson would just stare at him, and Rodney would snap "WHAT? It's been a bad year, okay?")
