The expedition finds an Ancient in stasis deep in the city. Or is she? Indeed not! Elizabeth Weir has traveled back in time and, with the help of an actual Ancient, has corrected the problems that led to the catastrophic failure of the first Atlantis mission in Before I Sleep.
The old age make-up done to age Torri is reall, really well done. There's a few things this episode does that are really interesting: it uses time travel to help explain some of the "It's TV! Of course it all worked out!" things from previous episodes; it shows us that the timeline we're watching as viewers was not the prime timeline, which it usually is.
There might be an issue with the overall Stargate timeline as the evacuation of Atlantis back to Earth is happening at roughly the same time Ra discovers Earth and starts kidnapping people to make them slaves. How close in time did those two events actually happen?

And, of course, we hear from Wagner and how accurate the time travel and Rodney's comments on it are in this episode.
