Spoiler Summary

This story is a continuation of the mid-season cliffhanger, "First Contact".

The members of Sheppard’s team are scattered.

McKay is with Dr. Daniel Jackson at a facility that belonged to Janus. There, they’ve met with an Asgard who wishes to rid the galaxy of the Wraith once and for all. He’s activated a device that Daniel tries to talk him out of using, but the Asgard insists that this must be done now. Knowing that his people are a dying race, the Asgard believes there isn’t enough time left for them to work together on another course of action.

Todd has control of the Apollo, where Ronon, Keller, Woolsey, and Major Marks are, but the ship is damaged. He’s got most of the ship’s crew accounted for (there are around two hundred crewmembers), but there are some still evading capture. Todd makes the announcement over the PA that he will begin killing some of the captured crew as long as Ronon and Keller and others remain uncaptured. He is concerned about a device he calls the “Attero device” and as long as it remains active, more and more of his alliance could be lost. One of his men, Kenny, is overseeing the damage to the ship, and they are on their way to Janus’s facility where McKay and Daniel are.

Sheppard and Zelenka are on a Travelers’ ship commanded by Katana. Her 15-year-old chief engineer Mila and Zelenka are working together to get to Janus’s facility before the Apollo does. They’re on their way to rescue McKay and Daniel, knowing that the Apollo has been taken over by Todd. Sheppard believes that if Todd gets there first, McKay and Daniel will be goners. They are trying to get as much out of the hyperdrives as they can to get there, but the ship’s systems are barely hanging together because they are made of salvaged parts. Mila’s an expert in the hyperdrive systems, having started working with this technology when she was four years old, and she has confidence in her engineering, but Zelenka is not so sure.

Who will get to the facillity first, and who will survive the battle that is sure to come?

Production Notes

  • "It really hit home this afternoon when I glanced up at the whiteboard and saw the big, empty space beneath the Season 5 heading and beside the numbers 1 through 20. Marty G. helpfully filled in areas with the following titles: Premiere, Mid-Season Two Parter, and Finale. Awesome! 4 down and 16 to go!" — Joseph Mallozzi in his personal blog, October 24, 2007.
  • "The writers have convened in the writer's room to discuss the mid-season two parter." — Alex Levine in his scifi.com blog, January 25, 2008.
  • "Marielabbott writes: “Any chance Weir might be figuring prominently in the mid-season two-parter?” Answer: Nope." — Joseph Mallozzi in his personal blog, January 31, 2008.
  • "So far, we’ve got a terrific, BIG two-parter planned. I suspect that the page count in the Daniel/McKay scenes (featuring the two fastest-talking actors in show business) will have the scheduling gurus doing back-flips. Remember that new enemy I mentioned? Oh, and Marty G. will be doing the honors on this one." — Joseph Mallozzi in his personal blog, February 5, 2008.
  • "Marty G. will do the honors for the mid-season two-parter (Welcome back to Atlantis, Dr. Jackson). — Joseph Mallozzi in his personal blog, February 20, 2008.
  • "Marty G. has yet to come up with a title." — Joseph Mallozzi in his personal blog, February 28, 2008.
  • "Marty G. gets a head start on the mid-season two-parter." — Joseph Mallozzi in his personal blog, March 4, 2008.
  • "HE'S BAAACK: Former "Stargate: SG1" regular Michael Shanks reports he's been invited to come aboard "Stargate: Atlantis." "It was the most cryptic, enigmatic pitch of a story I've ever heard," say Shanks, who'll be reprising his popular "SG1" role as Dr. Daniel Jackson in a recurring capacity. "The pitch was: 'You go to Atlantis and something happens and Daniel has to help everybody to get rid of the bad guys that are coming.' I was like, 'Wow, did you spend a lot of time thinking that one up?' But it's one of those things. Stargate is like old home. It's always nice to be able to revisit that universe and those individuals and to play that character again." — Interview with Michael Shanks, The National Ledger, March 13, 2008.
  • "Marty G. hammers away at the still untitled mid-season two-parter." — Joseph Mallozzi in his personal blog, March 13, 2008.
  • PG15 writes: "Would you say that there are hints/foreshadowing in any of the first 9 episodes of the season of the new race/enemy introduced during the Mid-season 2 parter?" Answer: "I would not." — Joseph Mallozzi in his personal blog, March 20, 2008.
  • "Thank you to Marty G. who had us spinning in the writers’ room for about twenty minutes over lunch today, trying to come up with a title for the mid-season two-parter. I kind of liked A Smattering of Scenes - but no one else did. So - still nothing. But that didn’t stop him from putting out a first draft of part one." — Joseph Mallozzi in his personal blog, March 26, 2008.
  • "Oh, I also found time to join with the other writers in giving Marty G. notes on the (still untitled) first part of the mid-season two-parter..." — Joseph Mallozzi in his personal blog, March 31, 2008.
  • "The premise is that Daniel shows up in Atlantis to do some research. He's been excited to come to Atlantis for five years now, and things have finally calmed down on the S.G.C. side to give him some free time. So he's coming to Atlantis to do some research on Janus. And that's all I'm going to say." — Martin Gero, Gateworld interview, April 3, 2008.
  • "First Contact is not a time travel story." — Martin Gero, Gateworld interview, April 3, 2008.
  • "McKay finds it very frustrating, because McKay feels like he's followed up any leads that are promising. So McKay is kind of angry -- he thinks it's someone coming over to check his work, basically, and is not the happiest that Daniel is coming to Atlantis. Also McKay is very territorial. He likes being the 'head Ancient guy.'" — Martin Gero, Gateworld interview, April 3, 2008.
  • "Marty G. is working on The Lost Tribe..." — Joseph Mallozzi in his personal blog, April 11, 2008.
  • Rebekah writes: “So, I have been asked to ask (by my husband who is in love with Larrin) - will we be seeing anymore of the Travelers in Season 5?” Answer: "Tell him to be sure to check out the mid-season two-parter." — Joseph Mallozzi in his personal blog, April 18, 2008.
