When Telford fled back to Earth via the communications stones, did he
find himself back in bed with Young's wife? If so, how did she react?
Will Telford be allowed to serve as Young's host for future visits to
his wife? After all, asking Emily to accept her hubby in yet ANOTHER
body seems a bit much. She had a hard enough time dealing with and
accepting Young in Telford's body! I urge Young and Emily to devise a
password system so that he can let her know that he's himself in
whatever body he occupies.
Rush also said that he had put safeguards in place to prevent any
danger.
Did you see the final scene? It implied that Telford and Young's wife
already has something going on between them.
to prevent any danger of his having to return to Earth, that is...

Did it really? So why exactly is it she couldn't have simply believed it
was Young's conciousness in Telford's body...just as it was shortly
before? :/
I thought it was implying that this was Telford's way of exacting his
revenge on Young. Either that or he just liked what he saw when he
briefly shot back into his own body while Young and his missus were
making love, and fancied finishing off the job, while pretending to be
Young. Either way, I think it was obvious she believed it was Young.

Not necessarily. It's entirely possible that she has been having an
affair with Telford. She seemed a little too willing and took to having
sex with him too easily. I'm sorry but if it were me, I'd find it hard to
have sex with someone who I didn't know even if the person I knew was
inside his body. It would take a while for me to let it get that
far.......<g>

That's what I thought. I read the final scene the same as the OP, it does

this episode was too soapy for me. Enough!

Yeah. Imo, Telford is a jerk and she was clueless. Young on the other
hand... I think he figured out what happened when he got yanked back
and wasn't pleased. I think Telford is going to start pretending to be
Young. We'll see if the wife falls for it.
I am confused why no one wants Rush to 'stone' back to Earth. Maybe
he _will_ want to stay back there. So? I would think that sending him
back would be a _good_ thing (that or spacing him. I really dislike
that character and don't think it is necessary for the show that he be
such a pompous, arrogant, self centered twit. It detracts from the
flow of the story when he gets like that because I am so put off by
him. I didn't even dislike Baltar that much and I know they are trying
to make some sort of parallel). Heck, have him switch with someone else
who knows just as much about the ancients if that is what they are
worried about.
Does anyone else wish they would have moose antlers to help the
characters clue into who is who when they are using the stones? I
feel sorry for the people who come up to Young/Telford and are all
flustered trying to figure it out.
All in all, however, the show isn't getting worse. It isn't great,
it's not even going to get up to the level of Atlantis at this rate,
but it's still worth watching and I _am_ slowly figuring out who is
who.

I agree. I wouldn't do it. I don't know if she was having an affair
with Telford or what, but _I_ wouldn't have sex with someone who
wasn't my SO and it would be very difficult for me on a primitive
level to accept that this other body was really him. Maybe, over time,
if we interacted enough I'd come to accept it on a basic level.

Sorry, that would make sense. That means it's not eligible to
actually be done.
Similarly, they must have several "not very important" people on
Destiny that should be the ones routinely going back to earth via the
stones. They should keep all the competent people on Destiny doing
vital work and use the "not very important" people to bring in MORE
competent people to help out with the vital work.
Oh, a direct report now and then, sure. "Shore Leave" equivalent to
keep up morale, yeah, some of that too. But for the most part bring
in the fully competent doctor to treat people who are injured, bring
in the language experts who can translate Ancient and label things
without getting things backwards and so on.
And yes, have BIG NAME TAGS or the equivalent to identify just who is
who and DIRECT ORDERS TO WEAR THEM AT ALL TIMES. If someone goes
around impersonating someone else it should be a Court Martial offense
just for the impersonation (and maybe additional charges for what was
DONE while impersonating someone, depending on what happened).
And they should definitely have rules about not abusing the host body.
They don't have to spell it all out - just a single line of dialog
(that references the fact that such rules exist) would be fine for
now. But so far what they're SHOWING is complete disregard for the
host body.

That's the argument about "why the hell don't they bring in a real
doctor?"
No, it didn't. It implied that someone in Telford's body came to visit
her. Maybe it was Young and we were just seeing Telford through Emily's
eyes...
If something was going on between them, I would think she would have
jumped into his arms immediately upon seeing him there.
The problem is that when people act like professionals, there's less conflict,
which makes it harder to write shows. Yet in this situation they
*should* act like professionals. (The people on the ship, of course, are
mostly not professionals, but that's no excuse--it's the people running
things on Earth who need to be professionals.)
And I believe impersonating someone to have sex (as implied at the very end)
is considered rape.
Also, I don't see why the mother couldn't have been told her son is on a

The stones, the stones
It should be painfully obvious that one
of the following is the case:
Telford has been having an affair with
Emily prior to the current situation
or
Telford is more slimy than Rusch and is
going to bang Emily as much as possible
while posing as Young
However, in the latter case, Emily would
eventually say something that would
cause Young to know what Telford is
doing.
So, it's obvious that they have been
having an affair.
There are a lot of penal codes out there. The California Penal Code for
example "...Where a person submits under the belief that the person
committing the act is the victim's spouse, and this belief is induced
by any artifice, pretense, or concealment practiced by the accused, with
intent to induce the belief."

That can't last long. Eventually, Everett Young will pay Emily a visit and
hear her comment on "visits" he made that he doesn't remember. At that
point, he will realize that Telford has been sneaking around with Emily, and
set up a password system to enable her to tell Everett and Telford apart.

Well, I can see a huge constitutional problem with this statute just
from the first section where it basically says that if your spouse
forces sex you, it's not rape.
Second, after reading through the entire section, it's clear that the
part you quoted isn't an impersonation section, but rather a fraud
section relating to bigamy.
It would be impossible to make impersonation equivalent to rape.
A guy picks up a girl at a bar and she sleeps with him because he gave
her the impression he's a rich commodities trader, but she later finds
out he's really a poor struggling artist. Can she now claim rape because
he "impersonated" a rich guy and, she being the gold-digger that she is,
she would never have slept with him if she'd known he was poor? Or what
if he's a very light-skinned black man and doesn't tell her and she
sleeps with him believing he's white. She's racist and would never
knowingly sleep with a black man. Rape-by-impersonation? Yes? No?
The permutations on this are endless and would be both impossible to
legally define and an unconstitutional restriction on personal liberty.

I figure that the first sections means that if a woman consents to sex believing
that you are her husband, and that you did something to further that impression,
and that she would not have consented if she had known you were not her hubby,
you are guilty of rape.

Telford sleeping with Emily would amount to bigamy.
Nonsense. Let's give a for example - a burglar sneaks into your house,
catches you up for a latenight snack, knocks you out, and then has sex with
your wife, her having no idea it isn't you because it's pitch black in the
room and he didn't say anything.
Even if there's no force and no overt violence, it's still rape. Probably
quite rare, but I'd bet money it's happened. *

That wouldn't be impersonation, either. The perpetrator didn't
impersonate anyone. He just started having sex with someone. He didn't
affirmatively claim to be someone he's not, which is an essential
element of impersonation in every penal code I've ever seen.
Where are people seeing this implication, or the other suggested one
that he is going to sleep with her?
All I saw was him calling on her, I assumes he was just going to have
words about abusing his damn body while he was elsewhere. He didn't look
very pleased to me.

Odd to me that everyone thinks Telford is or was going to have
relations with Young's wife. I thought the look he gave at the end
was more menacing than that. My first thought was that he was going
to use her somehow to manipulate or control Young into getting what he
wants. Telford is obsessed with Destiny and will do whatever he can
to take over control.
Most likely it came about when one person impersonated his or her twin
in order have sex with the spouse of the twin. I have heard of such
cases third hand or so (so I can't give you an exact cite), but human
nature being what it is I'm confident it has happened.
Now that would be interesting.

What amuses me is that it's only a crime in California if it's a matter
of the twin pretending to be the wife's HUSBAND. If there was no
marriage involved-- if the twin was pretending to be his brother in
order to bang his brother's girlfriend-- then there's no crime.
Then there's this definition of rape at the top of the penal code
section:
Rape is an act of sexual intercourse accomplished with
a person not the spouse of the perpetrator, under any
of the following circumstances...
Here we have supposedly progressive California's view toward rape-- that
if the forced sex occurs between one spouse and the other, it's not rape.
Seems like a pretty medieval approach to the law.
Any productive discussion of California law would require the participants
to be familiar with it; both the statutes *and* the case law. I'm going
back to my long standing rule of not discussing legal topics here. So this
will be my last post on this topic. But since I don't feel comfortable
leaving out there the notion that it's legal for one spouse to rape the
other.
CA Penal Code 262
(a) Rape of a person who is the spouse of the perpetrator is
an act of sexual intercourse accomplished under any of the following
circumstances:
(1) Where it is accomplished against a person's will by means of
force, violence, duress, menace, or fear of immediate and unlawful
bodily injury on the person or another.
(2) Where a person is prevented from resisting by any intoxicating
or anesthetic substance, or any controlled substance, and this
condition was known, or reasonably should have been known, by the
accused.
(3) Where a person is at the time unconscious of the nature of the
act, and this is known to the accused. As used in this paragraph,
"unconscious of the nature of the act" means incapable of resisting
because the victim meets one of the following conditions:
(A) Was unconscious or asleep.
(B) Was not aware, knowing, perceiving, or cognizant that the act
occurred.
(C) Was not aware, knowing, perceiving, or cognizant of the
essential characteristics of the act due to the perpetrator's fraud
in fact.
(4) Where the act is accomplished against the victim's will by
threatening to retaliate in the future against the victim or any
other person, and there is a reasonable possibility that the
perpetrator will execute the threat. As used in this paragraph,
"threatening to retaliate" means a threat to kidnap or falsely
imprison, or to inflict extreme pain, serious bodily injury, or
death.
(5) Where the act is accomplished against the victim's will by
threatening to use the authority of a public official to incarcerate,
arrest, or deport the victim or another, and the victim has a
reasonable belief that the perpetrator is a public official. As used
in this paragraph, "public official" means a person employed by a
governmental agency who has the authority, as part of that position,
to incarcerate, arrest, or deport another. The perpetrator does not
actually have to be a public official.
(b) As used in this section, "duress" means a direct or implied
threat of force, violence, danger, or retribution sufficient to
coerce a reasonable person of ordinary susceptibilities to perform an
act which otherwise would not have been performed, or acquiesce in
an act to which one otherwise would not have submitted. The total
circumstances, including the age of the victim, and his or her
relationship to the defendant, are factors to consider in apprising
the existence of duress.
(c) As used in this section, "menace" means any threat,
declaration, or act that shows an intention to inflict an injury upon
another.
(d) If probation is granted upon conviction of a violation of this
section, the conditions of probation may include, in lieu of a fine,
one or both of the following requirements:
(1) That the defendant make payments to a battered women's
shelter, up to a maximum of one thousand dollars ($1,000).
(2) That the defendant reimburse the victim for reasonable costs
of counseling and other reasonable expenses that the court finds are
the direct result of the defendant's offense.
For any order to pay a fine, make payments to a battered women's
shelter, or pay restitution as a condition of probation under this
subdivision, the court shall make a determination of the defendant's
ability to pay. In no event shall any order to make payments to a
battered women's shelter be made if it would impair the ability of
the defendant to pay direct restitution to the victim or
court-ordered child support. Where the injury to a married person is
caused in whole or in part by the criminal acts of his or her spouse
in violation of this section, the community property may not be used
to discharge the liability of the offending spouse for restitution to
the injured spouse, required by Section 1203.04, as operative on or
before August 2, 1995, or Section 1202.4, or to a shelter for costs
with regard to the injured spouse and dependents, required by this
section, until all separate property of the offending spouse is
exhausted.
Or inform her that she may now have a sexually-transmitted disease :-)

I believe that is considered *fraud*, not rape. And yes, in _spite_ of

Wouldn't that be ADULTERY?

Fraud requires a monetary loss and since prostitution is illegal, the
state's position is that sex is valueless...

I see a dilemma for Everett Young: He wants to visit his wife, but won't want
to let Telford on board the Destiny! Therefore, Young will have to use some
other man as a host, so his wife will have to get used to him in yet another
body! Everett and Emily had better agree to a password so that she can
authenticate him in whatever body he uses!
What about in Nevada?
Why don't they just stay celibate?
Maybe to make it interesting he'll only
be able to stone into a very beautiful
woman.

I propose that extra pay be given to those who agree to serve as hosts and even
more extra pay be provided to those who agree to let their bodies be used for
surrogate sex.

I have a different take on that scene. I think Telford was there as
Telford, not pretending to be Young - his stance and mannerisms are
different. Also Telford's 'kink' is more for power than for sex (some
use power to get sex, some use sex to get power), so I doubt he's
going to be pretending to be Young to have an affair, and I'm not
convinced that there is/was an affair (though Emily has good reason to
have perhaps toyed with the idea - Young has already had an affair,
with the medic, and he's a billion light years away).

("reply to" is spamblocked - use the email addy in sig)
it's ok - his girlfriend is aboard Destiny. (which may explain why
Emily is so p'd off)
Agreed with you on Telford's need for power, but that is why I think
he's there pretending to be Young. Young just humiliated him on
Destiny, so he's there to get what revenge he can. I don't believe
Telford and Emily were having an affair beforehand because until very
recently Telford was stationed on Icarus.

And what will they do with that extra
pay on Destiny?
Although it is pretty likely that it is
the medic, I'm not sure how Emily can
know that she is on the ship and it is
just as likely that he was having an
affair with one of the other
women...perhaps the lieutenant
We know it was the medic from Young's "dream/memory" at the start of
the episode.
This also explains why she was leaving Icarus and why she "wasn't
supposed to be there".
Didn't Emily say something to him about being on the ship with *her*
(I could have sworn she did, but then maybe not).
She did indeed.
She did, but I'm not sure how she knows
who is on the ship and it seems pretty
stupid of Young to tell her...at least
this early.
In any event the "her" doesn't have to
be the medic
Which only proves that he is a human
male and eminently practical

It could. Another explanation could be
that she was accepted to medical school

And where was he stationed previous to
Icarus?

There could be a whole slew of reasons she was leaving - all at the
same time.
She's getting out of a dodgy relationship and realises she can't be
around *him*.
She'd been accepted to medical school/offered a better posting
She's (already) pregnant.
Hmm. I just noticed that, let me think about it some more.
Forget that! There's going to be fisticuffs, mark my words!
Well, if Young ever gets back to Earth...Telford is safe for now, unless
before a transfer, Young has his body tied up or put in the brig, so
that Telford's visit is a waste of time and energy!
I rewatched the episode yesterday--Telford DID look extremely
uncomfortable when Emily opened the door. Perhaps he WILL do the
honest thing and tell her what happened. I predict that once they
get past the awkwardness of the whole situation, Telford and Emily
will become friends, then romantically entangled but will try to fight
that for Young's sake. Talk about complications!
Not fair to call her a 'slut'--in Young's dream/memory, HE initiated the
affair, not her "I never meant to hurt you"...
