Ginn, using the stones to trade bodies with Dr. Amanda Perry, continues to fill in Homeworld Command of an impending Lucian Alliance attack. Suspecting she’s giving up valuable information Simeon manufactures an escape by killing his guard then making his way to silence Ginn.
Taking Park hostage, Simeon forces Volker to dial a planet and escapes off the ship. When Rush finds Ginn’s lifeless body, knowing what it means for Dr. Perry, he gates to the planet on a mission of vengeance. But Homeworld Command, believing Simeon has information that could prevent an attack on Earth orders he be captured alive. Col. Young must send Lt. Scott and Msgt. Greer to bring Simeon back before he kills Rush or is killed himself.
Well, this was an interesting episode, the events of which will no doubt have lasting repercussions. I'm sure that if the Alliance do attack Earth that Rush will hate himself, despite the fact that it was unlikely that Simeon would have broken and given up any information.
We also now know that if you die whilst connected to someone using the stones, they die also. It must be something to do with the separated consciousness, the shock of death means that the person on the other end loses their consciousness, in essence becoming brain dead. That's my theory anyway.
When David Blue said we'd see another side of Eli in this episode, I thought he'd be more aggressive rather than the angry/sulky combination that we got. I suppose the extreme behavior is best left to Rush as he's somewhat morally ambiguous anyway, and Eli is meant to be a hero character rather than an anti-hero.
