Well, in this story McKay was too busy raping John to be able to effect a rescue, but yeah - I don't mind if they don't succeed in a reascue, I don't even mind if we don't find out until the end why they didn't succeed, but a passing mention of 'oh, if only Lorne would burst through the door right now/oh, it sucks that my second in command hasn't got his act together yet to rescue us/oh, what on Earth can have happened to Atlantis, I hope everyone is okay' wouldn't have killed anyone.
