* CovertPervert: Rodney sneaks a peek at Carter's butt upon arriving at the SGC. Even without turning around, an irritated Sam ''knows'' he did it.

* NothingIsTheSameAnymore: The Atlantis ZPM is depleted, depriving the Expedition of not only instance Wormhole access to Earth (at least until the Intergalactic Gate Bridge is completed), but the ability to utilize systems they couldn't previously power (such as the shield).



* PutOnABus: For Hermiod, as this episode is the Asgard's final appearance on ''Atlantis''. The character will vanish from hereon out (though a deleted scene from Season Four would've confirmed Hermiod's fate following the events of the ''SG-1'' series finale "Unending".

* SequelEpisode: A loose one to [[Recap/StargateAtlantisS02E06Trinity "Trinity"]], as the SGC believes it's finally found a workaround to the flawed science of Project Arcturus.

Added DiffLines:

* ContinuityOverlap: Carter cannot accompany Rodney and Jeannie back to Atlantis for the test because of how much is going on back home. This aligns with what was happening concurrently over in Season 10 of ''Stargate SG-1'' (as the Ori Crusade had just dealt a catastrophic blow to the Jaffa and the resistance to the invasion in "Counterstrike").


Added DiffLines:

* RememberWhenYouBlewUpASun: Given this episode follows up on Project Arcturus, Rodney's accidental destruction of the Dorandan System the year before inevitably gets brought up ([[NeverLiveItDown much to his chagrin.]])


Added DiffLines:

* SupermanStaysOutOfGotham: Played with. Samantha Carter personally tries to recruit Jeannie and pulls rank to bring Rodney back to Earth after her attempt fails. However, Carter does not accompany them back to Atlantis (which is, again, justified in-story due to all hell breaking loose with the Ori Crusade over in ''SG-1'' at this point).

* {{Foreshadowing}}: Rodney makes a reference to an "intergalactic gate network". That network eventually is shown a season later in Recap\StargateAtlantisS04E17Midway.

* MillionToOneChance: Carter and [=McKay=] realize the project could have disastrous consequences for whatever AlternateUniverse the exotic particles get dumped into, but figure that the chances of randomly selecting a universe that's inhabited are "astronomically small". You'd think that with the number of Alt-[=SG1=]'s they've already encountered, they'd know better...

--->'''[=McKay=]''': She's ''married'' and she's my ''sister''.\\
'''Sheppard''': I was just saying ''hi''.\\
'''[=McKay=]''': I know what you were doing-- I've seen that look before, ''[[BoldlyComing Kirk]]''.
* NiceGuy: Rod. Although the rest of the team admits he did get irritating after a while.



* RealLifeRelative: [=McKay=]'s sister Jeannie is played by Kate Hewlett, David Hewlett's real life sister.
* RecycledSet: the house used for the exterior of Jeannie's house is the same one used for Samantha Carter on SG-1.
