Stargate Universe - Episode 2.02 - Aftermath - Episode Discription Posted by MWB87 at Sunday, September 12, 2010 Cancelled Shows Tweet

With food and water supplies running dangerously low and tempers flaring, a shuttle is deployed to an unstable planet whose Stargate has been locked out of Destiny's controls.

The Lucian Alliance prisoners are growing restless and desperate. They know food and water supplies are dwindling and ponder what their future may hold. After conducting interviews with some of the Lucian's, Camile Wray believes a number of the prisoners can be trusted and may even be helpful. Col. Young disagrees and is of the opinion that they are dangerous. After a group of prisoners attack their military detail, he orders that they be relocated to the next habitable planet.

Still recovering from his torture at the hands of Kiva, an exhausted Dr. Rush manages to unlock the master code to the ship's bridge. There he finds a planet within range that seems viable but for some unknown reason, has been locked out of Destiny's controls. Its Stargate also appears to be non-functioning. With the need for food and water becoming dire, he decides to override the ships controls and have a crew deployed to the planet in the hopes of finding much needed supplies.

Lt. Scott leads the team to the planet. On approach their shuttle encounters violent turbulence followed by power failure. It crash lands and slides into the side of a cliff causing critical damage. The only way back to the Destiny is through the planet's Stargate and when they find it, it is in far worse condition than anyone could have imagined.
