SGU: Human

In the latest episode, we get some nice character development in regards to Dr. Rush. Actually we're inside his mind for the majority of the episode. You see, he's hooked himself up to the chair that's on the ship... hopefully to find a way to control the thing. Very nice episode. I highly enjoyed this one.

You also get to see what was going on in his life before the whole Stargate thing entered it. Complete with a cameo from Dr. Daniel Jackson. That was a nice touch. His wife has cancer, and in this version of things, he's not paying attention to her... because he's already lived it. Makes you wonder... how he handled things before? I'd like to believe that he took care of her, was by her side etc.

Anywho, during the whole episode... the thing he keeps pushing away is the key to it all. There are 46 chromosomes in the human genome... that is the key to guiding the ship and making it do whatever they want. Rather amusing if you ask me. Wait a second.... I thought there were 23? Now I'm confused... I'll have to re-watch the episode.

The sub plot. Okay, so they come across a planet with ancient ruins. The team that goes gets stuck and the ship has to leave. It's now up to Rush in the coming weeks to find a way to turn the ship around to pick them up... or... hey they have Stargates on the planets right? Hmmm could they I don't know perhaps go planet hopping hoping to find that Destiny is near by? Oh yes, that would rock.

We'll see how this pans out. It's picking up speed again... should prove interesting.
