I suppose they had to make this a stand-alone, as the big thing that had to be reconciled from "Destiny" requires a lot. Still, the main storyline of this episode, while engaging at first, doesn't have a particularly satisfying payoff, I think.
That being said, there are a lot of great moments, here--particularly Sarah clearly still dealing with her guilt...and her classic clash with a persistent Stilson. Her taking note of his vague platitudes is a great moment--if only her words held true for America in general.
