About This Program ✦
The episode titled “The Queen” is a programme entry classified as an episode. It falls within the broader genre of television drama and follows the conventions of a self‑contained story that advances the series’ narrative arc. In this instalment, Dr Keller is convinced that she can eliminate the Wraith’s compulsion to feed on humans. Her confidence drives the central conflict, prompting a risky response from Teyla, who volunteers to undertake an undercover operation. Teyla’s mission is deliberately hazardous; she must infiltrate hostile territory while concealing her true identity. The covert nature of her task underscores the peril she faces, as any misstep could expose her and jeopardise the broader objective of curbing the Wraith’s predatory behaviour. The climax of her assignment involves attempting to broker an alliance with another hive. By reaching out to a rival collective, Teyla hopes to forge a cooperative relationship that might weaken the Wraith’s appetite for human victims. The episode therefore pivots on her daring effort to negotiate peace between two hostile groups, all while navigating the constant threat of discovery.
