Epilogue, Episode 2.18
The thing I loved about this episode was the "what-if" scenarios that played out on Novus. The impact of knowing the choices they made on that planet could be seen in the faces of everyone aboard Destiny that we had a chance to witness seeing their alternate history.

Bittersweet, lovely, and powerful are just a few of the words I would associate with this Stargate Universe episode, Epilogue, and yes, maybe it would have been a great ending for the series had the writers known Stargate Universe wouldn’t be coming back for a third season.
It was such a great episode that it left me more sad than ever that the show won’t continue. These latest episodes have brought a lot of great character moments mixed with plenty of forward momentum for the stories. Characters in action do show more than any brooding, talking, pouring-your-heart-out chats could ever tell us about the people on the ship. Those days seem long past now, when every episode presents the kind of challenges to these people that bring them to life.
I’m looking forward to watching the next episode. I would love to see Epilogue have ongoing consequences for the Destiny crew. With the series end so close, though, I’m not holding out much hope that we’ll see many answers to the questions the episode raised for me.
