I remember when I heard this plotline was coming up (I was spoiled way before I got there on the DVDs) I thought it was brilliantly awful because it was the worst conceivable torture for Kara. She could easily withstand anything physical, but mental/brainwashing in some sensitive areas? Eek. Trapped and being forced to play the docile housewife and killing him over and over but him coming back and trying to force his love down her throat. UGH. And then even worse, the baby. That one especially because it's the way he actually manages to break her/give her a bit of Stockholm or whatever.
Where I do think it could have been more sinister is...if they cast a baby the right age to believably have been from Kara's ovary they took on NC. I'm not sure why they didn't do that. Although God knows they missed so many other logical connections they could've made in other plots/episodes too.
