I thought they made it pretty clear through dialog that even though
the gates were unavailable, the Goa'uld still have large fleets of
hyperspace-capable ships. Certainly, the loss of the gates would
seriously affect Goa'uld daily operations, but it certainly would not
prevent ship-to-ship or ship-to-planet combat, as Baal most ably
demostrated.

They explained this in the show.
Without Gates, the System Lords that have the biggest fleet will kick the
butts of the others so that only one is in charge. A unified Goa'uld power
structure has been previously established as BAD.
They also mentioned that without Gates, Earth can't get the resources
it needs to defend itself (Naquada I think). Meanwhile, having a single
Goa'uld with no signifigant opposition means that said Goa'uld is free
to snuff out any little annoyances.

Since this was Felger's fantasy, are you SURE they were fightning?
From the noises and Felger's expression, it sounded a little.. different.

Ripped off tons of old sci-fi shows and movies (including the now old 'upload
the virus' idea from INDEPENDENCE DAY").
And the catfight sequence at the end? Guess they're writing for 13 year old
boys now.
They need new writers badly.

Yeah but they still have ships. Without the gate system, we can't really get the
stuff they need to fight the goa'uld off. Oh wait, they already said that :-)

If you think that they were fighting. There are a lot of guys who'd pay good

One other thing - what the heck kind of weapon was Sam using at the end? It

I thought the same thing- about the Lone Gunmen analogy. I really like Felger,
but he seemed to grate a bit at times this time around.

Yes, because then it comes down to "who has the most/best ships?" And since all
we have is "shuttles," we've become a big, honkin' blue target. Of course, once
again Stargate rips on Independence Day, although the computer stuff was
"slightly" better than the movie. I couldn't tell- was Felger's laptop an
Apple?

>Bad points:

Bad Point: No Coombs.
Coombs was a great straightman against Felger. He was the one whom Felger could
bounce against <like Abbott and Costello>. Felger was the optimistic one
against Coombs's anxiety. I think that's what was missing, even though it was
still a fun ep.

You mean you were unphased by her ripping off her bdu jacket, only to see her
in the skintight black shirt? Only to get into a "catfigh" after calling the
other chick a trollop?? You feeling okay??

>This Week's Fashion Victim Award:

Not as bad as the tie itself. Did you see how she tied it? The little part was
longer than the big part <shudder>. I did love the part where he put his pants
on backwards. That was hilarious.
>(2) Marines! Hoo RAH! (sorry...back in my youth I was a Marine...sure it

I think that's as close as you're going to get to a "cat fight" like that in
the actual show.
I guess O'Neill and Felger managed to "bond" after all <even if it was just a
fantasy>.
Another thing- what the hell is it with the "team?" Teal'c was literally in it
30 seconds, and that was clear at the end. Daniel had maybe a minute and a half
of dialogue <even though I'm sure he wasn't having an easy time- nothing's
worse than being pounded with torrential rain- especially when wearing
glasses>.
Ah well, small quibble. It was a fun ep...

SOOOO Stargates use some early version of Windows, with the virus
distribution support functions.
Ships, they've got ships. In fact that is clearly they way they'd do it
cause they already have twice (although one time wasn't in our reality).

I noticed in Felger's dream that she wasn't wearing her lab coat while
she was wearing it in reality.

Yes! And he hid his GI Sam doll, after she picked it up so it was too
late. There is also his gate diorama.

In one scene she is shown changing clips and just after that the gun she
is carrying has a drum mag. Oops.
Now what was scary was that Felger had a Baretta, I'm surprised they
trusted him with anything more powerful than a medium range squirt gun.
I know there was "The Other Guys" but most of the time they weren't
around SG-1 with the guns.
Okay so now we have Jack AND Daniel phoning it in. I know, they are
splitting the shooting up but still. What I'm dreading is when Teal'c
phones it in. Following Jack's lead he'll stick his face in close and,
well, he's just got more face than Jack. And he's Jaffa so by nature
he's scarier.
Okay so they figured out how to screw up the Gates without completely
cutting off communications. So why did the virus scramble the buttons
randomly. Why not change it to a known pattern. I mean at some point
after a planet has been isolated long enough we might want to go in,
kick the remaining Jaffa's butts and, in this example, startup the old
Naquadah mine.
I guess there were no non-connected DHDs around that they could copy the
code out of and upload to jump start the network again.
Actually they could do something like reprogram the gates to require a
GDO code before activating.
And again we see why having our own front end to the gate is
advantageous.

Channel's Stargate SG-1 site at:
http://www.scifi.com/stargate/episodes/season7/0709/
No deleted scenes available, but there is the Jack O'Neill sound bite
for the episode:
"Don't forget your goggles."
And there are four photos available for download.
I enjoyed this episode.
Granted, the episode is lacking the complete TEAM feeling, because the
team is divided up into components again -- but at least we did get to
see everyone. And yes, Teal'c did have lines.
But hey -- Jack and Teal'c captured an Al'kesh -- came to rescue Sam
with it! Hope we get to keep this Al'kesh -- we've added another ship
to our space fleet.
This episode was very busy with Gate addresses! We had P3L-997, the
planet where Daniel was. P5S-117, the planet with the naquada, that
was under Ba'al's control. P3C-249, the planet O'Neill and Teal'c went
to, to meet with the Jaffa. And P4F-221, the planet where the mining
team returned from. Is that the planet from "Enemy Mine?" No, it's
not, that was P3X-403. So...we're mining for naquada on at least two
planets now.
I noticed that Carter referred to the X-303 again. And just two weeks
ago, it was being referred to as the BC-303. A little nod to Star Trek
with the references to phasers and photo torpedos.
Where's Martin? He was standing in the hallway, just outside the
entrance to the Control Room, talking with Sgt. Siler -- who appeared
to have something in his eye.
Again I noticed everyone was pronouncing Felger's name with a hard "G"
-- except for Jack, who first said Folger, but then later said his
name with a soft "G." Is this an O'Neillism or an RDAism?
Loved Felger's dioramas, with the miniature Stargate's and the action
figures. Hey, MGM, we fans would buy those! Felger is getting his apt.
fumigated, so he's staying in a motel (note the card key lock on the
front door and the motel decor). How did Sam get his address? That SGC
Personnel Dept. is very lax with employee home address, and phone
numbers of employee's mothers. And the Major Carter doll was a nice
touch, but I couldn't see the detail on the other doll well enough to
tell if it was supposed to be Felger or Jack.
Sam was not wearing the combat bracelet for the first time. Wonder if
the military team that gave the bracelet to AT has returned home at
last?
When Felger packed his knapsack for the mission -- he put in a roll of
duct tape! LOL! And then his assistant, Chloe, gave him what looked
like a bag of sandwiches and a bottle of water.
For those fans who have been complaining we're not getting shots of
the interior of the wormhole when SG-1 gates -- we got a brief glimpse
of wormhole travel in this episode.
Loved the "fantasy" sequence at the end. You knew there had to be one,
and this one had Jack participating this time in the fantasy with
Felger.

Oh yeah, definitely hilarious. It took me a moment to realize they were
sweat pants, and that he'd put them on backwards. His trying to put his
hands in his pockets and failing was hilarious!!

Were they doing what they did when filming the last two? You know how Daniel
was in ENEMY MINE and not really in SPACE RACE and Sam was barely in ENEMY
MINE but completely in SPACE RACE because they were filming the two at the
same time? I know CJ wrote BIRTHRIGHT, did he direct also? (Gateworld
doesn't say) Even if not, I think he's going to be heavy in that episode,
from what I read of spoilers and have seen on ads, so that's probably why he
was absent. :)

I thought it was funny how they had modified the neck of her

It looked to me to be a heavily modified M-4. Shorter barrel
with that metal heat guard that she attached a flashlight to.
I liked the fact that she had a scope and used it. Well aimed
bursts conserve ammo and take the Jaffa down.
>
>In one scene she is shown changing clips and just after that the gun she

I don't think that was a mistake. I watched it again at
midnight, and she clearly dug into her backpack for the drum. She
changed mags a couple of times, and then she put the drum in when she
started to get overwhelmed.
Makes sense to me. She used the mags (which she has to change
a lot) when the Jaffa are far away, and then switched to the drum when
they were close (when changing mags could be hazardous to her health.)

Maybe they didn't give him any bullets. If it had been me, I
would have given him a Zat just in case he accidently shot me in the
butt.

I'd give it a C. Worst ep of the season so far. The geeky
scientist and brutish soldier stereotypes are so overdone. I simply
don't buy the character. He is too stupid for a genius, and too eager
for someone who has been in combat before.
At least Space Race had some decent special effects.
Bizarro7
and critical as Cheyenne Mountain is just a bit too far beyond realism for me
to buy it. Making it comic only negates the realism of the entire episode.
That Hammond would *keep* him on the base afterward is asking us to believe the
idiotic.
Yes, it's a fun parody of an SG-1 episode, but that only relegated it to
on-screen fanfic.

There were a few instances where he was nervously <and unconsciously> pointing
it directly at Carter's head. Then there was the time he put his palm onto the
hole itself. Those two instances were scarier than the oncoming Jaffa. I know
it's a fake, but jesus, Felger has become one of the main reasons why we need
gun laws.

Yeah, that was pretty good. Seems like this season they sure are

I couldnt find an exact match in any of my reference materials but best
guess is it's a M-16 modification by Knight's Armament or La France
Specialties. It used a short solid stock that was about the same length as
the collapsible stock when closed, and a short barrel about 10 inches long
like that used on the old Colt CM177E2 Commando. The forestock looked like
the 4-rail modular weapons system from Knights Armament with a vertical
tactical grip mounted on the bottom rail. It was a flat top reciever with
an Elcan 3.4x Optical sight mounted on the rail in place of the carry handle
and iron sights so it's a recent design. But the flash suppressor was a
three prong design like those used on the LaFrance M16K instead of the
normal bird cage design. The magazine looked like the Beta Company C-Mag.
It carries 100 rounds in twin 50 round drums, one on each side of the
magazine housing.
It could have been a total custom job with someones personal pick of
options. I like Sam's choice in weapons, fairly light, good penetration,
decent range and a good rate of fire. Overall much better than the P-90
they normally carry.
I would like to get a better look at it though. Like a color shot of Sam
modeling it while wearing something more "comfortable" for the "stacked and
packed" calendar. ;-)

Yeah some folks have very strong and not positive thoughts about guns in general
and military style weapons in particular. Now obviously I'm not one of them. My
own personal opinion says that everyone should have an M-16 and an M-9 or M1911
in their possession. *That's* maintaining the militia :-)

gimmick. This one goes to nine in my list of eps to date. Grade D+, and that
for Jack's reactions to Felger. <g> Poor Steve, I'm pretty sure Teryl is in
the next one.

Yeah but he's likely to shoot you two, three or four times. Or himself
for that matter.

Come to think of it Jonas was usually packing a Zat. Was that because
they didn't trust him or maybe just a personal choice

I take it you consider that a Good Thing (tm)? If I remember correctly,
Chris Judge's model girlfriend has an appearance too...amongst the cast of
shapely females. I know it'll be a hardship for you, Steve, but look forward
to your review. ;)

Shooting you in the butt with a gun won't kill you but imagine
accidently shooting you with a ZAT, getting flustered and then while
trying to shoot at the enemy, accidently again!

A 9mm bullet in the butt can cripple or kill you with the
first shot. The guy was waving around the 9mm even before the Jaffa
showed up.

Okay, a Zat with one charge in it. Or shoot him after he has his first
accident.
Maybe we give him an Intar.
