Part 7/11:
The anticipated mid-season two-parter would also spotlight the return of Connor Trinneer’s character, Michael, a Wraith hybrid. The pivotal plot chronicled the team’s struggle against a biological weapon that transforms Atlantis' crew into hybrids themselves, forcing them into a confrontational moral dilemma while fighting for survival.

Captured inside hamster-like spheres or dealing with temporal anomalies caused by a malfunctioning Zero Point Module, these plots would challenge the team in new and unpredictable ways.
