Trio : STARGATE ATLANTIS SEASON FOUR ....

"Midway" will feature the new Midway Space Station introduced in the third season episode "The Return, Part 1." The station -- at that time incomplete and open to space -- is located in the vast, empty space between the Milky Way Galaxy (home of Earth) and the Pegasus Galaxy (home of Atlantis). It is the midway point on a traveller's journey along the intergalactic gate bridge, where the transition is made from the Pegasus gate network to the Milky Way system. "After taking time off to do a little fishing, Carl is heavy into 'Midway.' It'll be great to finally see the big men spar. It'll also be nice to have Kavanagh back. Unfortunately, he won't find his return quite as enjoyable.""In Season Three we set up the Midway station. And we're going to follow that through, through a good part of Season Four. But in sci-fi nothing lasts forever and the best laid plans often go awry. So if you get your heart set on the Midway station, you may be disappointed."Christopher Judge will reprise his role of Teal'c in "Midway," which -- based on set pictures posted by executive producer Joseph Mallozzi on his blog -- will see the Wraith finding their way to Earth's Midway space station in between galaxies.Teal'c will be there too, along with two familiar Earth scientists who have been assigned to Midway: Dr. Lee (Bill Dow) and Kavanagh (Ben Cotton). Lee will appear earlier in Season Four; Kavanaugh was last seen in Season Two's "Critical Mass.""Christopher Judge showed up this year, which was fantastic. And it was actually -- it made a lot of sense. Most of the episode he does is with Ronon, and as the resident expert on being the new alien on board, Teal'c has a lot of information he can pass on to Ronon, a lot of expertise.When I talked to Joe Mallozzi he said the fans have always wondered in a fight between Ronon and Teal'c, who would win. So this episode sort of addresses that."
(Actress Amanda Tapping, in a Stargate Atlantis media press conference)SciFi.com has published a new video Q&A with actor Jason Momoa ("Ronon Dex"), which includes several scenes from "Midway." The scenes show Teal'c in Atlantis; Teal'c and Ronon sparring; a mess hall scene with Teal'c challenging Ronon for being responsible for bringing the Wraith (and Ronon drawing his gun on him); and Teal'c and Ronon in a corridor at Stargate Command on Earth.
On Earth they find the remains of an Airman, who may have been drained by a Wraith. Could there be a Wraith on the loose at Stargate Command? Colonel Carter invites Teal'c to Atlantis to counsel Ronon, who is up for review by the I.O.A. -- which is not eager about having aliens involved with the Stargate program."Damn fine episode. Teal'c and Ronon kick mucho Wraith ass -- when they're not beating the crap out of each other." NEW! January 15 - "Teal'c goes to Atlantis to mentor Ronon ahead of an I.O.A. review to determine his suitability for the Stargate program. Meanwhile, the Wraith kick-start a plot against the Midway station."NEW! January 31 - "When Ronon comes under review by the I.O.A., Carter asks Teal'c (guest star Chris Judge) to mentor him, but the appraisal is put on hold when the Wraith target the Midway station."NEW! February 2 - "Mr. Coolidge is the newest member of the I.O.A. and openly distrustful of alien participation in any facet of the Stargate program. Despite his bias, the I.O.A. has entrusted him with interviewing Teyla Emmagan and Ronon Dex about their suitability to continue as members of the Atlantis expedition. This does not bode well for Ronon, who is next on the list to travel to Earth for questioning."Colonel Carter, concerned that Ronan's temper will explode under intense cross-examination, asks an old friend to travel to Atlantis to serve as his mentor -- Teal'c, of the Jaffa. But Ronon, insulted by the implication that he can't handle himself, makes no effort to befriend Teal'c and their stay on the Midway station, en route to Earth, does little to improve the situation. Unbeknownst to anyone, a plan by the Wraith to invade the Midway station is about to be initiated, and an interview with Mr. Coolidge will be the very least of their problems."
