What Season 3 of Stargate Atlantis
Season 3 kicks off with the expedition in the middle of a crisis. After the Wraith's betrayal, their hive heads for Earth with McKay and Ronon held captive, and Sheppard and his military team must stop it from arriving. Meanwhile, Dr. Weir has to answer to the IOA for her alliance with the Wraith, and Richard Woolsey arrives in Atlantis to decide whether she can stay in charge. The missions take the team to Sateda, Ronon's home planet, where his past comes back to hunt him, and to other worlds where a charming man hiding a drug awaits them, or Sheppard's old enemy, Kolya. Sheppard protects the city while searching for a way to stop the Wraith.
