abstract
  • Following the return of Atlantis to the Pegasus Galaxy six months after the Battle of the Super-hive, the Atlantis expedition discovered that a new Wraith Queen had risen to take power amongst the Wraith, Queen Death. After defeating Queen Death's forces in the Battle of Levanna, Queen Death lured the expedition into a trap where a raid was launched that captured Doctor Rodney McKay. (SGA: "Legacy: Homecoming") After capturing McKay, the Wraith scientist Dust transformed McKay into a Wraith named Quicksilver. Having no memory, Quicksilver was told that he had been captured by the expedition and experimented upon, resulting in his memory loss. In reality, the Wraith wished to gain McKay's cooperation so they could use his intellect to destroy Atlantis and reach Earth. After a failed attempt to rescue McKay, the expedition learned the horrifying truth about McKay and Dust was killed. Due to the many backdoors McKay had placed within the Atlantis computer system, Jeannie Miller is brought in in an attempt to locate and remove them so that McKay won't be able to hack the computers and lower Atlantis' defenses. With Dust dead and none of Queen Death's other scientists able to continue his work, Guide suggests assigning Ember to help Quicksilver remember his knowledge about Atlantis without remembering who he really is. Queen Death accepts this proposal and Quicksilver, after a dream where he is in the SGC with an Ascended Doctor Elizabeth Weir, regains some of his knowledge as McKay, including the ability to give the Wraith ships shields and his backdoors into the Atlantis computer system. As a result, Quicksilver suggests a raid on Atlantis to steal the city's ZPM and with it, render the city defenseless. Quicksilver's plan is approved as it gives the Wraith their best chance at eventually destroying the city. (SGA: "The Lost", "Allegiance")
