From TV Guide:
Destiny docks with a similar ship that is identified as a seeder of Stargates. Lt. Scott boards the vessel with a team and finds that it may have enough power to open a stargate back to Earth.
From Syfy:
The crew encounters a ship, similar in ancient design to Destiny, which may provide the means to return to Earth.
The Destiny is set on a collision course with a ship of similar ancient design found floating in space. Panic turns to wonder as the ships dock with each other. With data streaming in they learn they have come upon one of the Stargate seeding ships that the Ancients sent out ahead of the Destiny.
Col. Young dispatches a team to investigate while setting Dr. Rush and Eli to analyze the flood of new data. Once aboard the Seeder Ship, Lt. Scott and his team discover that it might hold the energy to power the Stargate for a connection back to Earth.
Realizing this might be the key to getting home Col. Telford convinces Young to let him join the team aboard the mysterious ship. But just as the energy transfer is underway they discover there’s more aboard the ship than just power.

I can't wait!

NOTE POTENTAL SPOILERS, DONT READ ME IF YOU HAVENT SEEN ANY OF THE EPISODES FROM THIS SEASON SO FAR.
This season has been quite disappointing for me to be honest, mainly with all the missed opportunities for plot developments and the like. Things like 9/10ths of the LA being kicked off the ship to Talford being written out (or at least being put a in a situation where a Dues Ex situation will be needed to bring him back) pretty much right after coming back as a good guy too me feel like missed opportunities. Personally I felt, before the new season aired, that the LA would have been a great source of "canon fodder" that would have allowed for some fighting between humans and aliens, maybe seeing a return of the "aqua grays" with an epic fight in destiny, it would have thinned their ranks and at least allowed the surviving LA to earn the crews trust.
That’s not to mention the rather slow the episodes have been. Even the season premier was rather slow, focusing a fair bit on TJ’s mind trip and so on. I really hope the show pulls a big enough rabbit out of its hat to save itself because this season just hasn’t impressed me in the least.
What a good episode. It was so exciting. Many funny scenes, good aliens, good story, i want the next episode, pleaseeee
