Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaWithout realizing it, McKay goes through several of the five stages of grieving while he is stuck in the jumper as it's sinking, specifically denial, anger, bargaining, and depression.
- GoofsZelenka says 1200 feet is "almost the maximum depth of a nuclear powered submarine". Even many Cold War era submarines had operational depths of over 1500 feet and crush depths of 2400-3000 feet.

Dr. Radek Zelenka: [Cursing in Czech] Do prdele, to je na hovno tohle to. Kdo to vymyslel, ze budeme pod vodou tentokrat?
[Translation: Fuck you, this sucks. We're going under water this time, whose idea was that?]
Lt. Colonel John Sheppard: I think my Czech's getting better, 'cause I know what you mean.

Featured review
File under jumping the shark
I remember Stargate Atlantis started to go downhill, and upon a rewatch I think this may be it.
After such well written and tightly crafted episodes, this one feels very below par.
The ensemble spark is gone, to make away for another Rodney episode. the trouble is it doesn't do anything for Rodney that hasn't been done before... and in fact isn't great for him because when you add up what he does in this episode he's not as brilliant as he often is. He just makes do until the others arrive.
Then Sam Carter... oh dear... what a forced and strange inclusion. It felt like they owed the actress a favour. Scrap that... she owed them a favour. It was completely unrealistic that even in his state Rodney was seeing her like this - and it did nothing for Sam, just making her look a dozy bimbo to amuse Rodney.
Not a good episode at all.
