I enjoyed it :) I loved all the Shep but hated the dying at the end :( I kept wondering why Rodney didn't send backup when he lost contact with Sheppard.
I kept trying to figure out if any of the people were "our" SGA peeps. For a moment I thought Rodney was our Rodney but he was too smooth and self confident. And Zelenka cleans up nice!!!

Need I say Shep was hawt!!! More whump would have been nice. Again, crossing over to the dark side and seeing those pics of Shep in the desert made me annoyed that was all the whump there was.

Oh, and I didn't watch previews for next week!

Well, the previews for next week didn't give away that much ;)

Yeah, the ending was *gah*, which is why I'm so glad that tag came out immediately afterwards!

Ha, that could NOT be our Rodney. This Rodney has a lot more civility and confidence in social situations ;)

Yeah, think we're going to have to whump Shep in fanfic since somehow I don't think they'll do anything dire in the last episode.

I was one of the people who loved this ep, even though it kinda broke my heart. I saved kristen999's tag, and I'll read it later--I know it will be great--but I have an idea for a tag, too, and I want to make sure that my take on it comes from my own brain. :)

Wow, your screencap made me wonder--was he shot twice? We only saw him get shot in the shoulder, but there's blood on both sides of his shirt. Wow. Poor Detective Sheppard.

Yeah, I know how you feel. watching Shep die was not fun :( but I could go 'he was AU, he went out doing what was right, and seconds later, Kristen999 posted her fic so all is right with the world' ;)

Not my screencap (snerched from, oh, darn, can't recall!) but anyway, I'm thinking could have been hit by a ricochet or just wiped a bloody hand, but I'm thinking the former as tere is blood on both hands.

I wish we'd had a season six so they could have done more like this, well, better writing!

All hail kristin999! That's how the ep should have ended. No way Rodney (any Rodney) would have left Sheppard in the desert alone, even if he thought he was already dead.

That's what I thought, too :)

The ending almost made me cry *wibbles*. Poor broken Sheppard *hugs him*. I so wanted Rodney to have someone go find him and save him. Thank goodness for Kristen999's tag or I'd still be feeling a tad depressed.

Oh Joe F. you must be on a detective show, you must. Your hotness must continue... in broken detective form. The man can act, and half the time doesn't even need to say anything to do so! Come on, you TV writers, hire him!

Oh, if they could just give him a nice detective show, or the NCIS spinoff, something! (please, not a sitcom)

And somebody must have David H show up as Sheldon's uncle in Big Bang Theory. It would be priceless!
