A renegade alien appears on Earth to exact revenge on the Taelons. Divers stumble across a strange radiant canister while searching for sunken treasure. Upon opening the canister an alien being known as Ha'gel is released from its prison and assumes the identity of one of the crew and destroys the others. Boone is called to the crime scene and his suspicions are raised when he finds Taelon writing on the empty canister. Upon questioning, the Taelons tell Boone that Ha'gel is the last of an alien criminal caste. Afraid that Earth will learn the truth, the Companion's recruit the help of Beckett to deal with Ha'gel. Ha'gel assumes Sandoval's form, and confronts Beckett. Boone reaches Beckett too late to prevent 'The Joining', which leaves Beckett pregnant with an alien offspring and unconscious, and Boone on Taelon life support due to the battle with Ha'gel. Zo'or, Quo'on and Da'an debate the future of the Taelons on Earth. Zo'or and Sandoval leave to visit Boone, who is still on life support, in a huge tank of blue fluid. As Sandoval watches, Zo'or raises his hand towards Boone, then releases a blinding flash.......

This was an awesome show, and a great first season. This ending, though not too cliff-hangish, really setup a strong set of ideas for season two's opener. If you're left with any loose-ends at the end of the season, be sure to watch season two, episode one. =) Posted on 2009-11-15 00:57:24 by Visitor
