Another filler episode. Once again, these filler episodes have nothing to do with destiny's main story. I think a lot of time was wasted in this series. Time that could've been better spent answering more questions about destiny's mission. Overall this was a good a episode, but it had nothing to do with the main plot. One thing I never understood about this series is why the show creators created so many filler episodes. There's more filler episodes than there are episodes about Destiny's main mission. Why would you make a show about a ship traveling through space to get to a location where the hope is that a cosmic mystery will be solved, but then only dedicate a couple of episodes to that main plot? I don't understand it. This was a another good filler episode.

Very clever epsiode!

Warning: Spoilers
Season 2 of SGU really stepped up and showed why it could have gotten even better.

This episode has two parallel A stories, related but almost opposite. 2 people trapped into another's body, with a debate on if/how the other 2 consciousnesses should be saved. The other story about 2 people needed surgery to share a kidney from one person, for another who's kidneys are failing.

Acting is great, with reflections on the debates in society about what lives are worth saving, and why, along with issues of consent and what, if anything, science can justify certain moral decisions.

Very recommended!
