Rush (Robert Carlyle) has taken to using The Chair on Destiny, as it allows him to spend time with Amanda Perry (Kathleen Munroe) whose consciousness, like Ginn’s (Julie McNiven) has been uploaded to the ship.

But something is preventing his release from this virtual world. She blames Ginn, but when Ginn appears to Eli (David Blue) to tell him what is really going on, he works to get Rush out.

On Earth, Homeworld Command is negotiation with the Langaran’s Ambassador Ovirda (Victor Garber) to use their power sources to dial the gate with the ninth chevron, and get the Destiny crew home. Helping Earth negotiate is Woolsey (Robert Picardo) and McKay (David Hewlett)! But the Langarans are reticent… have they made a deal with the Lucian Alliance?

Written by Remi Aubuchon, Seizure first debuted on 4 April, 2011.

And this is it, the end run towards the series begins.

It’s fun to see these characters show up in this episode, and interacting with these newer characters.

Telford (Lou Diamond Phillips) and Young (Louis Ferreira) are determined to stop the Lucian Alliance from getting Destiny and attacking Earth. So they use the communication stones to infiltrate the Langaran homeworld. But what if the Lucian Alliance isn’t dealing with the Langarans?

And can Rush save himself from the program? Will Eli be able to help?

This is a great episode, and shows that these characters operate in a bit of a grey area in an effort to survive. This is really good stuff. And in the end, they will do the right thing, though it may lead to a number of diplomatic issues for Homeworld Command.

The Hunt was written by Joseph Mallozzi and Paul Mullie, and it first aired on 11 April, 2011.

The Destiny storyline seems to be lining us up for the season finale, as Rush and Eli discover a section of the ship that contains stasis pods. And Brody (Peter Kelamis) gets locked in one, and frozen. Will they find a way to get him out? And who activated it?

Meanwhile, Greer (Jamil Walker Smith), Scott (Brian J. Smith) and others are on a planet, where they find some game to hunt for food. But they soon find themselves the hunted. The creature seems to bee keeping the people they catch for later, much like the Destiny team was planning to do with the game. Amongst the caught is TJ (Alaina Huffman).

The creature design is a little iffy, but the idea behind it works, and it’s an important arc for Greer.

The planet-side storyline is fast-paced and smart, and works well to deliver some action, while the Destiny story keeps building the series narrative, and is obviously planting seeds for what is tom come.

The series has really invested in its characters. Even some of the smaller characters have been developed, everyone has been given a chance to shine. There are lots of relationships and arcs growing and changing. And I do adore Lt. James (Julia Benson), her character has come along way through the series.

There are four episodes to go, how are thing going to play out? Will there be a price to be paid before the series comes to its conclusion? I like how this episode ends, we see the changes that have been wrought on the characters and how they’ve grown since the beginning.
