• First appearance of General Hammond.

• 26:50 — Jackson is a civilian and is not subject to whatever sort of extraordinary rendition it would take to bring him back.
• 27:30 — (shove)
• 27:50 — Called it.
• 28:50 — They should have come in guns blazing, with flash bangs or some other such combination of things.
• 29:10 — I would have come through with a tank.
• 29:20 — First appearance of Daniel Jackson.

• 31:45 — I thought the sandstorm is caused by a ship landing.
• 33:05 — The lighter throwback from the movie. Why bother with all of these?
• 34:20 — I don’t have the hots for her, but with a kiss like that I think I’d fuck up the scene several times for the retakes.
• 36:10 — His whole life? No problem, have several teams working around the clock. Nowadays the whole room could be 3D-mapped pretty easily.
• 37:55 — Yay, things that make perfect sense to me.
• 38:50 — I would have sent a package of info back to Earth long before then.
• 40:00 — The perfect moment to kill off some old character-anchors.
• 40:05 — Why is he speaking English?
• 42:30 — Feretti is mortally wounded.
• 45:00 — I’m confused as to why the bad guys wouldn’t entirely secure or destroy the Earth gate.

• 46:25 — Introduction of a new world. As-yet unnamed.
• 51:30 — Sheer top.
• 52:20 — That date-rape glove can seriously bad-touch.

• 56:50 — Daniel doesn’t have any knowledge of ancient culture.. just the Egyptology.
• 59:40 — First appearance of the E.R.E.D.
• 1:00:25 — Why wouldn’t Jackson be taking medication for his allergies now?
• 1:02:10 — Oh. Full nudity. That’s rather unexpected.
• 1:02:45 — Holy. Is it cold in here?
• 1:03:30 — Where do the “x” marks come from? I thought they would be entry points. I guess those are just for the temporary carriers.
• 1:06:45 — Arabic
• 1:09:40 — How come he’s speaking English?
• 1:14:30 — Children of the Gods
• 1:19:20 — Why don’t people salvage arms and armour? I hate that..
• 1:21:50 — Uh, that doesn’t look like a friendly ship.

• 1:28:30 — Their chain mail isn’t bulletproof.

Overall it’s kinda meh.

• 3:20 — Personally my backup would be cement. A heap of it overtop. Maybe molten aluminium or something cool. I mean hot.
• 12:00 — So I suppose Tilk knowing English will just be ignored..
• 28:20 — It’s a very good attitude to sacrifice one man for that kind of information. In fact, that sort of stuff would be decided outside his group. He would have been swept away for “help” to remove him from his team, etc.
• 39:40 — “You cannot pass.” See also The Lord of the Rings – The Fellowship of the Ring – (2001 movie) (one in the series of movies) “You shall not pass!”
• 41:50 — “So something of the host must survive.”.. no, perhaps all of the memories get absorbed and included into the genetic memory.

• 0:40 — They’re rather blazé about this.
• 0:55 — Don’t interfere! What about the Prime Directive?

• 1:35 — He speaks English. I hope they bring this up.

  • Tilk knows English too, and that hasn’t been brought up.
• 2:20 — Cultural sexism.
• 3:05 — Mongols (Mongol Empire)
• 4:50 — Yeah, they have guns.
• 5:50 — Here’s the thing. They have guns.
• 6:20 — I have an idea. Send the woman back.
• 8:00 — They aren’t men’s clothes. Both genders wear such uniforms.
• 9:10 — Anthropology
• 9:20 — What about the open carrying of weapons?
• 10:20 — So.. the man is attracted to .. her clothing?
• 12:35 — And now for the traditional raping of the woman.
• 13:55 — Tolerance.
• 15:30 — Either that’s a very-nearby trading post or they’ve been travelling for months.
• 16:05 — Oh! That’s Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa, who I know primarily from Rising Sun (1993)
• 22:20 — Love.
• 25:28 — Why would she still be in that dress? That’s not a work dress.
• 25:40 — How does she know how to ride a horse?
• 26:00 — Following a trail seems strange.
• 26:50 — Kiss-rape.
• 29:10 — Rape-rape.
• 31:15 — Why this one? Well.. you see.. they’re not from around here, and so they want a woman who is from where they are from. Someone they’ve travelled with who they value. It’s pretty obvious.
• 31:30 — He’s supposed to be making her less valuable.
• 32:45 — .. he runs out of bullets, then takes all his forces and comes to murder you all. Roll credits.
• 34:30 — So this whole episode really is about that religion of submission. That one that doesn’t allow women to show their face in public and which stones women to death.
• 35:20 — I know, how about not risking your lives. Or perhaps bringing a team through. I guess they’re too far from the stargate.
• 38:30 — He shoots her. Roll credits.
• 39:20 — Swords. Also, a fight to the death was made obvious earlier.
• 42:50 — Oprah Winfrey

• 0:50 — Why send an SG team when they should be sending a probe and then a serious military force? Isn’t that where the enemy went? Isn’t it realistic to assume it’s occupied?

  • 1:15 — Oh, they sent a probe. Called it.
• 1:35 — SG-3 marines. Yay. Sortof called it.
• 2:10 — Night vision, Thermographic camera
• 2:20 — Good question. Why doesn’t the probe have a proper array of sensors?
• 3:40 — If it’s lights were broken going through, then.. wouldn’t the light of the Stargate, as demonstrated right now, be decent enough to at least look at the immediate area, or at least at the gate and its control panel?
• 4:05 — “Fan out”? Why whisper that when the stargate is loud and bright?
• 5:00 — Firstly they took more than ten seconds to go through. Secondly why would gunfire scare them off when the staff weapon shooting didn’t seem to bother them much?
• 6:45 — Oh hey, now it looks like they have thermal imaging. You see the thing is.. that they would have easily been able to see their ambushers. Seeing as they’re mammals. Warm-bodied and all that.
• 7:10 — Homo sapiens, Supraorbital ridge, Homo erectus, Canine tooth, Australopithecus.
• 7:40 — Survival of the fittest
• 8:00 — Did he just roll backwards?
• 10:10 — Minoan civilization
• 13:20 — I wonder if a physical is required of anyone returning through the stargate. They could have a snake in them which would have access to their gate code.
• 13:45 — He’s more than a guest, he’s their top advisor and a bloody team member.
• 13:55 — No, it was not the perfect opportunity. The perfect opportunity would have proper experts in attendance to make meaningful sense of any of it. Jackson is not an expert on all things.
• 14:15 — Paul Broca, “The Broka divide”
• 17:20 — First appearance of x, the new doctor.
• 17:45 — Those aren’t isolation chambers, those are prison cells. They certainly won’t do a damned thing against contagion.
• 18:20 — Shouldn’t that guy still be in restraints, and shouldn’t all of them be sedated?
• 19:00 — See, Jackson had to go on the internet to learn.. he knows jack shit.
• 20:40 — So.. what explains the bone growth and all that? I guess this is the episodic suspension of disbelief.

• 22:25 — Okay, they’ve been sedating them but it’s wearing off fast. But why aren’t they in restraints? Also, it’s horrifying they would have to physically handle one of these plague victims.

  • 22:40 — Wouldn’t he be bitey?
• 23:30 — They also have a base self-destruct, which might be handy to have armed and set to go off unless reset .. say, every hour or so. That way if everyone goes insane then the base gets nuked.
• 24:25 — Shouldn’t they bring flares, grenades, and anything else that’s loud and impressive?
• 25:45 — Leprosy, Leper colony
• 26:15 — Oh good, they gave Tylk a proper gun. I was worried about that.
• 29:25 — Teryl Rothery is really pretty.
• 31:40 — They are with heart. They banished them instead of executing them.
• 31:15 — So if they have pull statues, then would there be bulls there?
• 34:20 — Histamine
• 35:35 — O’Neil does not have a clear head and does not have judgement. It’s all the doctor’s call.
• 36:30 — “Lucy, I’m home!” is a quote from I Love Lucy.
• 38:05 — All this time I’ve been waiting for a Light Side / Dark Side explanation.
• 38:50 — Why? Why not tranq him?
• 39:55 — Well.. what.. he was giving an order to put Jackson in “the isolation circle”.. Tylk should not have been stopped. Unnecessary drama.

• 1:20 — Clueless Clucks Clams. Nice papier-mâché helmets.
• 2:00 — Why is the other guy still not through the stargate?
• 4:10 — SG-9
• 4:20 — Why wouldn’t this place “play an active roll in anyone’s culture”? That makes no sense.
• 5:15 — Didn’t he make it back?
• 5:45 — More than that is left after a body is burned.. it would have to be really hot to burn his bones to ash.

• 8:15 — Why wouldn’t the stargate be guarded, with manufactured huts or some such? I guess they really did stay very low-tech since they can’t come out even in the shade. Which, by the way, was known and therefore the rest of the crew would be in proper gear for that.

  • Hell, I would have tried to bar the gate. My solution is always cement.
• 12:15 — So they’ll go to bed well within blow-dart range.. and within range of a lobbed uber-fire flask.
• 15:30 — I was genuinely shocked by the sudden drum and tilk’s appearance and hand. Why would they do that?
• 16:40 — He was in a different position before the shot cut away to the closeup.
• 17:50 — Again with everyone speaking English.
• 19:10 — It occurs to me that SG-1 could pose as gods themselves. Perhaps better yet would be if they demonstrated they’re all the same, and he’s just one of them, and then started an uprising to bring down this false god.
• 20:45 — He’s trying to .. help them, by sacrificing them?
• 22:00 — Standing right there in the open is a great way to be seen.

• 23:30 — Bang. Roll credits.

  • How many would want to shoot their ex?
• 25:15 — A terminator-smile.
• 29:45 — What’s that, a religious person being crazy? No way!
• 32:30 — That’s so obvious it’s not entertaining.
• 33:45 — If only he could, say, put his robe on the other guy to help disguise him a little and walk him out. Perhaps going in the direction of the guard they knocked out.
• 35:30 — The thing is that he’s talking so openly about sensitive things. These are being overheard by natives. Wouldn’t rumours spread and persist?
• 36:40 — The cement solution. Called it.
• 37:45 — All this time he’s ignoring the rest of their team. A team he knows has more people than the two he’s seen so far.
• 40:40 — Soo.. episode-introduction of her ex-husband and his death.
• 41:00 — Yes, yes they should come back.

• 41:40 — Thou shalt not kill

  • Except when when I tell you to, then it’s okay. Also when I do it, it’s okay then too. I’m god and I’m above my own rules. I am above hypocrisy. Somehow. It’s a seriously magical power. Shut up and eat your bread.
• 42:00 — Could a stone-aged civilization spanning just that valley develop into a spacefaring one?

• 1:00 — I bet someone blasted them apart, because they’re dangerous, missed some, and they’re re-growing.
• 1:40 — Are they growing from graves?
• 2:50 — His clothes got cloned, but not his hat? His watch got cloned but not his gun? His chemistry got cloned but not his ammo?
• 3:30 — Standard decontamination will begin immediately.
• 4:50 — 10 kilometres, of sand? Wow, that’s impressive. I did see a vehicle early on, so I suppose that was theirs.
• 7:30 — Carter is an aunt of two boys and a girl who moved to San Diego, United States.
• 7:45 — Why is what’s his face stepping into what should have just become the woman’s locker room?
• 8:05 — I thought she already knew about Jack’s history.
• 8:50 — Well, we have some modern art that looks like an erect penis without accompanying testicles.
• 9:00 — Radiant energy, Electromagnetic radiation
• 15:45 — Baseball
• 17:00 — A sad version of the theme song is not appropriate. This gives undesired audience-association.
• 18:30 — The obvious conclusion is they did not like the presentation of those crystals and were rejecting the offering. Because they’re dicks.
• 20:20 — Stanford University
• 21:15 — If only they had some sort of closure. Like an iris. Of titanium.
• 21:30 — So when the thing was trying to communicate, that means it’s alive. So if it’s alive then it’s first contact. When it’s first contact, you don’t leave it alone.
• 22:00 — Oh good, they didn’t forget about their iris.
• 29:00 — So they’re going to rush to bring it back through, right?
• If they almost-genocided my race, I would hide.
• 29:30 — Seeing as they have this stuff called “security”, knowing who is and is not in the base seems to be something they can learn out-of-hand. Hell, they at least have to sign out the staff weapon. Maybe signing people in and out could be a thing too. I don’t know, I’m crazy like that.
• 29:30 — Ionizing radiation, Radioactive decay
• 31:00 — They would have had that secrecy discussion already. Also, they could take at least some of their military gear off, or change in a vehicle as they are driven there.
• 31:00 — Chicago, United States “The Windy City”, Chicago Blackhawks, Chicago Bulls, Chicago White Sox

• 42:00 — I don’t understand. Wasn’t it “dying”? It should have been explained that perhaps by shifting into a littler form it could stay alive for long enough to get through the stargate. Or something.

This episode wasn’t properly finished. I hope it continues at least at some point.

• 0:50 — More than tens or even hundreds of light years away.
• 1:30 — Finally, they’re talking about techs.
• 2:20 — Their only significant hope of fighting off an enemy force would be gathering intel and technology, and maybe even allies, using the stargate program. Or do they hope to invent everything on their own, in time, and have their encounter be their trial run.
• 3:15 — Thankfully Tilk knows the stargate coordinates to this place. Presumably he was the one leading the expedition and opened the gate himself.
• 3:30 — Why was he sent separately?
• 4:00 — It seems like the thing she might have seen has gone through the stargate.
• 4:30 — It’s too bad they couldn’t bring more specialists on board. In this case, actual hunters would come in handy.
• 6:10 — The first thing I’d assume is that the invisible-thing is sitting on top of it making it invisible.
• 9:40 — Why would he be out in the open? Why would she chase after him like that? Why would Tilk stand out in the open?
• 12:45 — “Uh, hello. Do you speak English?”
• 14:15 — They have an allergic reaction and die. Roll credits.
• 15:00 — Remember that Jack’s kid got shot, so he doesn’t want other people to harm themselves.
• 16:20 — Oh my god, I know that actor.
• 18:00 — I wonder if they get their stomachs pumped every time they return. For science.
• 21:40 — They’re assuming Apophis knows where the stargate is and can get to it first. Also, I hope they still have their transmission gear to beam the iris-open code.
• 23:20 — That guy’s teeth remind me of Freddie Mercury‘s.
• 24:00 — Seeing as they have no idea how to make a bow, I think they’re screwed. Punji sticks and spears would probably be better, but presumably they have good boots and reasonable armour.
• 29:00 — If he uses the stargate, then Apophis can’t reasonably get there to bomb the place. It’s more likely he’d send people to enslave or kill them.
• 30:35 — Wouldn’t they have heard the prisoner shouting?
• 32:45 — So therefore they are vulnerable during the ritual of life. So yes they are weak.
• 38:00 — Except Jack already fired a dart at it and it didn’t make it through. So a spear-thrust argument should be made.
• 40:50 — How did they know how to send anyone through the stargate? I assume they’ve been watching it. However, the SG earth location has the iris, which means these guys just vaporized the team’s guns.
• 43:00 — So this entire mission was a bust, unless their stomach’s get pumped. Maybe also if their boots get scraped. For science.

• 0:30 — Lit braziers, assume people nearby.
• 1:30 — Midwife, Childbirth
• 2:00 — Why would a village be too far? That place looks like a temple or some such. Those tend to not be too far from civilization. Oh, well maybe not.
• 3:00 — Jack has at least had a kid, but it’s handy that someone has insta-childbirth experience.
• 4:15 — Messenia (ancient region), Peloponnese, Greece
• 6:30 — Now they’re married.
• 7:15 — Pelops
• 9:20 — Okay Captain Kirk, you shouldn’t be sleeping with the natives.
• 14:00 — Linear A, Pictogram, Ancient Greece, Ancient Crete
• 15:00 — I understand that this is an actual code used to 1:1 translate English into this writing.
• 16:15 — Argos
• 16:40 — Awkward.
• 18:00 — That advanced ageing does not explain how they are able to function as adults. Is there also some sort of genetic memory happening? Maybe this is part of the human evolution being experimented on?
• 19:20 — Was that a floppy disk? Oh god, this is 1997 isn’t it?
• 19:45 — Nanotech, sortof.
• 20:15 — Will Jack be the test subject for everything?
• 22:00 — Why would Carter come through the stargate without wearing a full hasmat suit? Hell, why would she be let out of quarantine on the other side?
• 23:15 — Called it.
• 24:45 — Called it.
• 27:15 — I’d find a shithold planet to toss this sort of thing on. For a long-term solution, I’d have a stargate somewhere where I could toss materials out into an ocean or off a cliff using a rover.
• 29:30 — Her bounce is incredible.
• 31:30 — I would have linked the day/night cycle. Bringing full-spectrum lighting may give them more time.
• 32:00 — I wouldn’t try to incinerate advanced technology. For all they’d know, fire would only kill the material they’re in, and distribute the particulate into the air. Presumably into air-scrubbers, but still out of proper containment.
• 33:20 — How are they able to talk, when the stargate isn’t even open?
• 36:00 — Proximity-activated sleep-evolution-aging thingy. I as expecting a device under the statue.
• 37:00 — You’d think she’d be all confused and surprised at never having seen nighttime before.
• 38:00 — Called it.
• 38:10 — Called that.
• 39:15 — Prostate
• 40:30 — Maybe they could have a short-ranged transmitter to quickly grow kids out of their stupidity.
• 40:45 — Florida, United States
• 41:30 — Shuffleboard
• 43:00 — “Uh, guys, shouldn’t I be staying a couple of weeks to bang thi I mean, make sure my ageing reverses. Then stay a while longer to bang thi I mean, make sure I stay the correct age? Then maybe I can come by on vacation to bang thi I mean, make sure that we maintain a “cultural connection” to her these people.

• 2:00 — See the thing about forbidding something is .. it’s a good idea to not tell people about it, when there are a gajillion combinations for the stargate, and people aren’t even allowed to play around with it. This is more than just security through obscurity.
• Thor, Norse mythology
• 2:50 — That message to the stars thing has already been created. See the Voyager Golden Record.
• 7:40 — Ettins (Jötunn)
• 13:30 — Jackson reached for his gun pretty damned quick. I thought he was awkward or pacifistic with them, but I guess that’s changed. Maybe I should have been paying attention to this part of his character.
• 26:15 — Vampire
• 27:00 — A myth. Like it’s existence, right?
• 31:45 — Labyrinth, which would make the monster something like the Minotaur.
• 32:00 — Why didn’t it “die” like last time? They should have chased/hunted it, then gunned it down and cut it to pieces or some such.
• 34:30 — So they’ll kill the monster by throwing it through that portal, or having it lunge at them and fall through.
• 37:15 — [ 1 ]. Roll credits.
• 41:15 — They should bury the gate. Cement is always the answer.
• 42:40 — And Tilk is transported back to the cave. He is instead trapped on the planet.

• 1:15 — 1945
• 1:30 — Pentagon
• 3:00 — I would assume it to be a death trap, reason to make research a little difficult. I would have used it as a garbage dump.. heh.
• 4:20 — Oh, it’s supposed to be whats-her-face.
• 6:00 — World War II, Franklin D. Roosevelt
• 6:15 — Stuff like that doesn’t get declassified. It’s in active use and would spoil the present security of their project.
• 7:00 — Way to fraternize and leak potentially-critical wartime weapons research. Idiot.
• 11:50 — While this is all very good and predictable, the gate could (and rightly should) have sent him into deep space somewhere. The combination they used wasn’t explained.
• 13:40 — The two of them would never have met. The program was taken away from civilians even before Carter was introduced.
• 14:30 — I wasn’t really paying close attention, but appears they explained the combination problem.
• 15:15 — Wouldn’t they have sent a drone through first? I presume that was done before this.
• 15:40 — And the three of them merge like The Fly (1986 film).
• 22:00 — Heliopolis (Ancient Egypt), Ra
• 24:00 — That’s rebar poking up through the rock. The ancient civilization that made the stargate .. used now-rusting rebar?
• 27:15 — United Nations
• 28:15 — Mecca
• 29:00 — Chemical element, Periodic table
• 32:50 — Old Norse
• 34:00 — Are they going to pull a Back to the Future (1985) and use lightning?

• 36:20 — Benjamin Franklin, Lightning rod.

  • Also, called it.
• 37:15 — Tantalus
• 41:50 — You can’t provide power from the other side, can you?

• 1:40 — “Ryack”
• 5:15 — Ryack is Tylk’s son, and he also has a wife.
• 7:30 — Faust
• 10:10 — Did he sign out his staff and original military gear? Was the room empty? Were there no guards?
• 11:50 — They must have had a cosplay expert whip up those uniforms from Tylk’s memory. Also, wouldn’t they be in the room before the gate is opened, so they can quickly get through. Seeing as it’s going to be noticed on the other side, that would be prudent.
• 13:45 — Why wouldn’t they stay in costume? It’s additionally strange when Tylk still has his half-suit on, but the rest of them change into uniform.
• 16:45 — Bratek’s odd-eye is distracting.
• 19:15 — If Bratek knew Tylk well enough to expect his return for his son’s ceremony, then he should have damned well known where his son and wife would be.
• 31:40 — Um. What? I’m not sure I would compare larval parasites to children.
• 32:10 — Run?
• 34:15 — If they ran, and had that in mind, they’d probably not have been found. Oh also, they shot up the place and let the bad guys know they were there.
• 35:00 — No, salvage their gear.
• 41:15 — I hope he plans on killing them, so that his betrayal is not revealed.
• 42:45 — So weren’t the dudes that were chasing them able to go straight to the stargate, seeing as that would be their escape route?

• 2:00 — He’s dead? Good. Roll credits.
• 3:15 — That’s their idea of quarentine?
• 3:30 — We’re all out of warm blankets, doctor, we just have these cold ones.
• 8:00 — Posttraumatic stress disorder
• 8:05 — No, idiot. The best thing you can do is listen to your fucking doctor, and have them go through grief counselling and anything else she recommends.
• 15:00 — Cuneiform script
• 19:30 — Wait, what? He kept expedition journals? That’s classified information.
• 19:40 — That’s a quote from the original movie.
• 23:30 — Serotonin, Neurotransmitter, Mood (psychology), Depression
• 25:30 — If only there were some sort of probe that could be sent through, to determine the status of the area around that planet’s stargate.
• 33:00 — Hypnosis
• 34:00 — I thought O’Neil wasn’t in active duty, so she wouldn’t really need to ask his permission.. I guess that’s a reflex.

• 0:30 — Mexico
• Chamber tomb, Egyptian hieroglyphs, Pictogram
• 1:45 — Hathor
• 2:00 — He didn’t even comment on the thing glowing, which could be seen from underneath the sand mostly-covering it.
• 6:00 — Yes. Yes they are absolutely necessary. Perhaps different cuffs binding her to a bolted-down table would be better.
• 6:05 — Gee. With an empty resurrection-sarcophagus, perhaps some more thought should be done. I hate when people are stupid.
• 10:10 — Already did.
• 19:45 — The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Also, my enemy’s enemy is still my enemy.

• 22:00 — Netscape Navigator!

  • Also, it’s using a file꞉/// reference, so there isn’t a website for me to look up. That would have been funny.
• 23:00 — Pheromone, Sodium thiopental

• 26:15 — Sexism.

  • Or maybe women don’t want to be in the military, don’t want to be burdened by secret duties, don’t want to develop or practice the skills which happen to be most needed there, or simply don’t want to be assigned there.
• 26:45 — I’ve be cable tieing men I find like that.
• 27:30 — Immediately shoot. Roll credits.

• 28:45 — It’s because you’re not one!

  • The reason women are excluded by male bonding is because they are not male. The reason genders don’t mix is because each needs their space, and more and more often, women don’t allow men to have any space anywhere for any reason.
  • The interesting angle would be that the military is a career, it’s employment, and that there should not be male bonding in it. However, because of long hours and tours, this bonding has to happen. Males have to do that. So yes, women have to be excluded. Women are a horrible disruption to male bonding. Just being anywhere near is a disruption.
  • It is therefore important to have military positions with employment-hours that are capable of mixing genders, or tour-lengths which are female-only. The former should be doable, and the later probably impossible. Women simply don’t want to do that kind of thing. Some, sure. Not enough to have female platoons.
• 29:00 — Libido
• 30:00 — So was she not searched before being captured?
• 31:00 — Aww, he’s being experimented on again.
• 33:30 — It was recently-established that it would take time for the larvae to mature, and they would not be immediately implantable. I presume there is a queen on that planet where Tylk’s son and wife are. Perhaps the mechanics of this queen are different, though.
• 34:30 — Immediately shoot. Roll credits.
• 37:00 — The jerky closing is annoying.
• 37:00 — She doesn’t take cover, gets shot. Roll credi– oh right she’s just a secondary character.
• Oh, called it. Hrm. I don’t see why she lived.
• 37:45 — Were I her, I would not destroy the sarcophagus.
• 39:00 — Well now, toots, that a real man is available, you can let the man-folk take care of all your problems. =/
• 39:45 — So many things would be taken care of by shooting immediately. That, and concrete. Concrete immediately. Sometimes shooting and then concrete.
• 40:40 — I did see her walking out of the room just then.
• 41:00 — Oh good, I did see that. Also, I guess if there were guards in that room she could have commanded them to step aside, or help.
• 41:30 — So now that they’re all pre-seeded with the pheromones or whatever, if she ever returns she has immediate control over those men.
• 42:00 — I thought Jackson didn’t remember anything.

• 0:30 — Eclipse, Black hole, Gravitational singularity, Accretion disk
• 1:40 — If only there were some sort of long-distance communications method. One using invisible air waves that can transfer speech across great distances.
• 2:30 — Tilk doesn’t need to wear anything because of his parasite. Lucky(ish) him.
• 7:30 — Hey I know her, oh my god! That’s Katie Stuart, who I know from The Crow: Stairway to Heaven (1998-1999).
• 8:00 — Uh, don’t get too close? I won’t go anywhere near her.
• 12:30 — You’ll be able to see her the whole time, through that camera? That’s not creepy at all.
• 18:15 — Potassium. Why not put her on an IV, since a deficiency would be life-threatening?
• 18:50 — Quick continuity error there, with her shirt being open/closed. No I wasn’t perving on her.
• 19:30 — Whoa, that was an actual nipple. What the fuck, people.
• 24:00 — Dude. You opened the roof in an area that’s plagued. You may as well open the door and hope nothing wafts in.
• 25:30 — Welp, kill the girl and cut it out. I have no problem with that, do you? Oh, you do.
• 27:30 — Welp, kick the girl through the stargate into space. I have no prob– oh, you still do?
• 28:45 — Treat her like a heart transplant patient. Have the thing stop her heart, for all it matters, and put her on supports until a replacement heart can be found. Maybe. That’s not exactly like killing her, right?
• 30:15 — Whoa, those fighters can fit through the stargate. That’s ominous.
• 33:45 — Wouldn’t the rest of them have to evacuate the building, the area and perhaps attempt to get the hell back to Cheyenne Mountain to be safe? I wouldn’t be hanging around.
• 36:15 — Can it be opened from the inside?
• 36:45 — I wouldn’t have let Sam go down in the first place. Because of this exact situation.
• 39:45 — I also knew. Seems appropriate for an explosive meant to take out a thing to be set to go off if in proximity.
• 40:30 — Personally I’d have eyes on her to make sure she never came back. I mean.. she’s technically undetonated. Actually I’d be working on that heart transplant idea. Hell, if she died by accident or natural causes what’s to keep the bomb from fucking off and blowing up?
• 40:45 — Oh hell no, not every kid needs a dog. Fuck dogs. I mean, uh. You know what I mean.
• 41:30 — Oh, it’s being reabsorbed.
• 42:30 — Toronto, Canada
• 42:45 — Swing (seat)

• 0:15 — I can’t imagine anyone being so blazé about the stargate as to have it just be a part of some random bit of a village and not either left the hell alone or treated as a sight of some significance.. to be turned into the focus of a temple or the like.
• 0:30 — No, I saw a fire. It’s not deserted.
• 1:00 — Brussels sprouts
• 1:15 — If the gould were recently there to “harvest”, then you’d think there would be evidence of a struggle.
• 6:00 — You’d think Tylk would be disarmed. They do know the staves are weapons, since they have a lot of exposure to the Gould.
• 12:45 — Idiot.
• 16:30 — Talmudic — “Only he who is wrong can forgive”.
• 18:15 — Superior orders, see also Command responsibility
• 20:30 — While I’m glad all of this regret and responsibility is being taken care of now, it’s been on my mind for a very long time now and I wish it were addressed earlier. Perhaps the series wouldn’t have had the proper flow, or acceptance, had this downer been introduced too early.
• 21:15 — By describing his regret and acceptance of his deeds, it would reveal the difference in his character from then and now.
• 23:45 — Well that’s the dumbest complement to pay a woman. I’ll have to remember it.
• 23:45 — If only they could tip the stargate over. I don’t know, perhaps with some sort of thick-twine.
• 26:15 — Kangaroo court
• 32:45 — I love the looks. Still relevant.
• 36:00 — Perhaps they shouldn’t be talking about a breakout in front of the execution-preparers.
• 37:00 — He just called her Catherine.
• 42:00 — So about that bandage around his gut. Is it.. did they put it there so hide larva wouldn’t escape, or was it makeup wanting to hide the ‘x’ there, or maybe just his gut?
• 42:30 — Concrete. Defend yourselves with concrete.

• 0:20 — It strikes me as odd how they refer to gate locations as “planet” because it’s just one small part as one region.
• 0:45 — Who wouldn’t know what’s in the air? The audience, I guess.

• 1:00 — Hey look, free woman.

  • Also, since it’s been pointed out to me recently, it’s funny how whenever it’s female it’s “woman” but male is always “someone”. It’s so rarely “hey, there’s a man over here”.
• 1:30 — If everyone died of suffocation, wouldn’t they also be in trouble? Wouldn’t the place smell of sulphur?
• 2:30 — Did he say “don’t help us”?
• 4:00 — Severed volcanic activity which they knew about from the probe they always send.
• 4:50 — So their tech was confiscated, right?
• 8:00 — Bets are that since men are weak in the company of women, he will switch sides and divulge secrets because he wants to fuck Samantha.
• 8:30 — Unmanned aerial vehicle
• 9:15 — I recognize that actor.
• 11:00 — How incredibly obvious. =/
• 15:00 — Did they expect to be on foot, close the gate on their end and be picked up in a time window? Would there be a way to send something through to contact that rescue ship? Perhaps instead of sending people through, which may be impossible, it could be possible to contact the dropship and tell them of another gate-carrying world which they can be picked up from.
• 16:45 — Oh I bet Samantha wants to show him how to use that bed. If you know what I mean. You know what I mean, right? Sex, I mean sex.
• 17:00 — Erwin Schrödinger (Schrödinger’s cat)
• 24:15 — Oh hey, she’s sortof a recurring actor.
• 37:15 — “We have a custom”.. heh, I bet he does.
• 39:30 — See the thing is that even back then there would have been plenty of “legal” ways to black-bag a civilian.
• 41:00 — The cat is pregnant. Their entire planet turns into another New Zealand.

• 1:00 — Aww, I hate when my system overloads with a 44.
• 4:30 — It seems to be that every series has some glaring bit of stupidity or dislikeable character. This frowney-faced fuck is annoying as hell.
• 7:00 — “It doesn’t work that way”. Yeah!
• 14:15 — Or they got sent through to some other place, and the rest of them got vaporized.
• 15:30 — I assumed that the firefight had some shooting at the stargate which fucked things up.
• 16:00 — See the thing about duress of torture is that torture can be very effective. Hence why torture is still a thing. Can be effective, but .. well isn’t always. So maybe with their advanced technology they would have advanced torture techniques or some such. That’s reasonable. Why am I even considering this topic?
• 17:15 — NEC cathode ray tube computer monitor.
• 25:00 — Missing in action
• 26:45 — Holy shit, I guess she really wasn’t properly military trained for this sort of shit, because she’s been all manner of a downer.
• 39:00 — McMurdo Station, Antarctica

• 1:15 — It looks like an technologically-earlier planet that’s been captured by a more advanced force.
• 9:45 — Why wouldn’t they either stay or bring him back with them?
• 11:00 — They’re clones?

• 11:15 — Replicants?

  • Yep.
• 13:15 — Why aren’t they worried about where the real team are?
• 14:30 — Phantom limb
• 16:45 — Why wouldn’t SGC assume that this is a ruse for them to go back, or open the gate for an invasion or some such?
• 20:30 — Imagine bringing the elderly, the terminally ill, the disabled.. populate that place with the willing to become experts in technology far beyond humanity. Sew the seeds for an artificial race.
• 28:30 — Hubble units? Like Hubble volume?
• 36:00 — This whole thing means he can make multiple copies, right? Take some psychologically well-adjusted people who are willing and make a bunch of clones of them?
• 41:00 — Given the opportunity to take the world’s brightest and not just make copies but make them immortal.. and they do nothing with it. Pfft, humans.
• 42:15 — All the codes could, and still should, be changed. Burying the gate is a stupid idea. The basic technologies alone would be incredible.

• 4:15 — Dude. Radio.
• 5:00 — He had to beam the access codes through.
• 6:45 — Parallel universe episode? Already wondered about this.
• 16:15 — Sending a bomb through would be dumb. Sending a small strike force through to deliver the bomb well away from the gate would leave the gate up for re-use.
• 16:15 — Why wouldn’t Jackson be under guard?
• 21:00 — Air Force One
• 25:00 — Yeah, the pulses are coordinates.
• 31:15 — Someone had to glue that to his head. I giggled thinking about that.
• 39:15 — Well now, the Gould have ridiculously faster-than-light communications.

• 41:30 — Were I Tylk, I would have jumped through too.

They’re coming!

• 0:30 — “And you were there..” quoting The Wizard of Oz – (1939 movie) at least, and perhaps the book too.
• 1:45 — Well if she were a civilian then it would be okay.
• 3:00 — Oh hell, does every show have to pursue an end-season viewer-hostage situation?
• 5:15 — It costs nearly a billion dollars just to turn the lights on.
• 6:45 — Is that actor from RoboCop – (1987 movie)? I’m not going to bother looking him up, but I’ll do another “I recognize that actor”. Because I do.
• 9:00 — Is he really making the risk-reward argument? How about proposing to make the project public?
• 10:00 — Pandora’s box, Greek mythology

• 12:15 — Cold War

  • I’m not going to track down the “enemies at the gate” quote. It reminds me of Nixon.
• 12:45 — “Upload a virus into the mothership” is a plot point of Independence Day (1996 film)
• 17:00 — Take their weapons.
• 18:00 — It wasn’t just “one of their own”, it was Apophis’ first prime. It’s not like any of it was easy, it took the help of the very best Jafa.
• 20:15 — Why would a senator be making military decisions. There’s a general right there. Or better yet, perhaps a third-party military strategist could become involved yet still detached to provide high-level analyses.

• 22:15 — Why is there even an argument? Mass drivers. There’s no fucking way a planet-bound civilization could ever ever win against a superior force from space. Not ever.

  • Are we talking idiot-aliens who only want to fuck around but not wage proper war, who have soldiers defect, who have their technology stolen and reverse-engineered.. and who take so damned long to do anything that the planet can actually get their shit together and still somehow make it into space and actually wage war on equal footing? But.. somehow still without the space-accessible resources, be they materials, personnel or equipment, somehow still win?
  • Why, oh why could any discussion possibly take place? Superior enemy in a superior position. Done. Go for guerilla warfare for defence, and drag out the combat so long that they give up taste for it. But they won’t, they’re insane and at some point they’ll use mass drivers. Because mass drivers. Concrete from space.
• 22:45 — Is this all going to be shark-jumping? It’s like this series is also sitting down with investors trying to convince them to continue funding this series.

• 28:30 — Plagues are also something being handled under special circumstances. Which supposedly (though not visible) are present for SGC, and that includes a facility-destruction mechanism.

  • Diseases, viruses and bacteria are very important fields of study, and finding new strains would actually be exceedingly important for advancing medical science. This is one of the many things which would benefit mankind if the program were made public.

• 2:00 — Buried? In concrete, right? I bet it would be concrete.
• 4:00 — Surgical strike
• 4:45 — Why would it be unauthorized? Would their authorization have been revoked? I guess so.
• 7:30 — They could use proper lights for all it matters. The gate makes a lot of noise, vibrates and is a big light show. Anyone around knows they’re there.
• 7:45 — Thank you.
• 13:00 — Television, Showtime (TV network)
• If that thing is for communications, why is it there? Is it using the wormhole technology for transmission? Is it transmitting right now? If so, why aren’t the gate’s lights on? Hell, why didn’t the gate work earlier? For that matter, what was that shockwave? How do I bake a cake?
• 14:30 — Court-martial
• 15:15 — Open it, shoot them– oh wait, it’s probably what’s her face.
• 19:15 — Open it. Shoot them.
• 21:30 — Yeah, go where? They’re in a nice position to check out the unguarded military stuff. Maybe sabotage it. The one in the coffin is the guy’s ex-wife. Going to see the unveiling isn’t so interesting.
• 23:00 — Oh, it’s what’s his face.
• 24:45 — I wouldn’t expect the Gould to convert. I would, however, expect it to be able to play at doing so. Well at least it would make for a good hostage, I guess.
• 27:15 — No, fuel isn’t always combustible. An energy source doesn’t need to be so energetic that it can go up immediately. Oh who am I kidding, I’m full of shit aren’t I?
• 40:45 — Shoot his hand. His arm? Hrm, he’s kindof skinny. Maybe run up and knock him over the head?
• 41:30 — I’m sorry. I’m sorry about your acting career, amirite?
